His HS coach told the press at signing time that GT had gotten a really good player that would be a pleasant surprise. I have not only been impressed with his running and receiving, but also with his toughness. His blocking is not Godhigh like, but is above average and still improving. He has...

IMO there are five major issues affecting the future of college football: Big money leading to bigger gaps between the have and have nots Long TV commercials affecting the flow of the game and adding so much non football so called entertainment to the experience, not to mention the longer...

My daughter broke her foot and has been stuck at the TV watching pieces of virtually all the college football games the last three weeks, and I have joined her a lot. GT may be out weighed, out run, out recruited, out financed, and academically handicapped but we are actually playing sound...

Players in the game were trying to score, as they should. But Dabo was not rushing the snap or calling plays to save time. He was content to let time the clock run, and if Clemson scored or didn't score, so be it. That is the proper way to end a game you have in the bag against a team you...

Correct as long as it is lateral or backward. When I have seen him jump the snap it is lateral on the sweep.

You may have something there. The safeties played much better (much faster) this past game. They said in an interview that their position coach turned them loose and encouraged more aggressive play. It sure worked. I hope it is sustained and it spreads to other positions, especially LB.

The Ga S fans were very well behaved. I was completely surrounded by them. I did notice that many of them have the "GT arrive 10 minutes into the first quarter" habit. I like to get there early to see warmups because it is the only chance to observe action by walkons, frosh RSs, and third...

Bryan and Marshall did warmups with their group in pregame (Klock did not). I knew Marshall was dinged up from the last game. Was Bryan also dinged? Does anyone know when and if and how much they played?

I generally agree, but I saw some real physical D play from Gray and Griffin especially. We need that effort to spread. I also saw a few plays from Freeman that indicated an uptick in his performance.

Here is a list of what I saw from afar in the upper N stands:: DL got pushed around Generally poor LB play Runners got extra yards after initial contact and they were quick and ran hard, and there were three or four of them Blitzers whiffed on QB and he was quick and ran well and made us pay for...

With us up by two scores the way the Eagles were taking away the outside and forcing JT to keep the ball I wanted to see Jordan in there. It was obvious to me that the pitch was not there and we would be better served with Jordan blasting for 5 rather that JT dancing for +/-2....not to mention...

And when the LBs blitzed today they whiffed on the tackle and made the QB a hero on the play. On non blitzing plays they cannot be as slow as they play. Maybe there are too many rules (too much thinking and not enough "see ball get ball"). The safeties were turned loose today to be more...

CPJ seems more concerned about third down stops than any other D stat.

What if we agree our talent level is 45 to 65 (out of 127 or so) in the nation most years. That puts us at a w-l expectations, based on talent, at 5-7, 6-6, or 7-5. How do we feel about our coaches' performance with those expectations? Or with our current talent level what should be our...

Unfortunately you are right but we have progressed from "can't find the ball" to "can't get to the ball". Still can't cover the flat or backs out of the backfield.

There was one defender around the 30 that had a chance to get Green. J Johnson gave him a stiff arm nudge on the (back/side) of the shoulder pad and pushed him offstride making the last 30 yards a clean finish. I was worried about a flag but it did not come. It was a marginal block. The push was...

Just watch the O which had some Lynch highlights as usual. DO NOT WATCH the D.

Two words: Slow feet.

You are right. However, the fan base maturity would be tested in a different direction and we would see posters frustrated about easy scores we would more frequently give up. So be it. At this point a change to a more aggressive D scheme is needed as there is more than ample proof that what we...

I am sure you are right. I am only counting the three long pass plays where we were so obliging.
