I haven’t made a study of this case. My understanding is Mel Tucker was fired for sexual harassment and making false statements Brenda Tracy has accused Tucker I’ve seen no one other than Tucker accused There’s a USA Today article...

It’s missing Ole Miss and Louisville (ESPN stats issues)

I can find you a few outside analysts who wrote “wow, GT should keep whoever turned around their defense—that’s an impressive piece of coaching” comments from the second half of last year. Not on this board, but from people who cover and watch all of college football. About this time last week...

DETMER is a “**** it, I’m throwing it”. Brett Favre would go high DETMER—lots of TDs, lots of INTs, lots of passes into triple coverage, lots of throws into the end zone. DETMER is a “I’m creating a lot of points—either for us OR for them” kind of stat. It’s for fun. Even though I made a...

Haynes King 0.43 EPA/Play, 63% Comp%, 812 yds, 10 TD, 0.90 DETMER Lots of yards, some TDs, not that many INTs. Formula is this Comp/Att Yds TD INT Sacks DETMER Yds/dropback EPA/dropback EPA SR Haynes King 59/91 (65% Comp) 812 10 2 2 0.90 8.66 0.43 39.66 49% Zach Pyron 3/5 (60%...

(Adding on) While I normally would say “7 points is 7 points”, we raced out to a 14 point lead, and at about 4 minutes into the game, BG scored 7–making it a game again. Then, we did this (from gameonpaper.com): 4:11 (Kickoff at GT 35) Jack Sauder kickoff for 59 yds - BGSU 7, GT 14 0.35...

Dude, I really did not think they’d screw up so bad as to lose that game. That’s 100% understandable that you’d think it’s a safe game. After we saw the stat about our recent record vs G5 teams, it’ll be a decade before we can feel safe again.

That’s something, but often a first time coach has someone THERE. For example, Stoudamire has head coaching experience, and he still has Hobbs on staff

Scroll halfway down the page here https://www.fromtherumbleseat.com/georgia-tech-football/2023/10/3/23901468/georgia-tech-football-advanced-stats-review-bowling-green It’s just for Bowling Green, but it’s the first week that PFF was more favorable for King than QBR (PFF gave him a great report...

On the other hand, offensive linemen win Heisman awards—for other people. QB stats have always been dependent on other players. It’s the nature of the position, for good and bad. If the QB throws a 1 yard hitch that goes for a touchdown, they get credit for an 80 yard completion. I think a...

Passer Rating is just passing. It’s “Passing Efficiency” in CFB. It’s a good and useful stat. It’s the granddaddy of advanced stats. ESPN’s QBR is proprietary, and it covers more than just passing, and it’s EPA-based. It’s built to measure how your QB helped your team win. Pick 6’s are really...

Why do you prefer QB Efficiency to ESPNs QBR?

Key hired mostly journeyman or young coaches. Often, when someone is sitting in the big chair for the first time, they have one advisor who has been there and done that for a while. I’m not sure who Key’s mentor/consigliere is

There are 131 FBS programs, with coaches and analysts. There are NFL teams with scouts, coaches, analysts, and personnel positions. He might be considered short term or “overqualified” (I know that looks crazy, forgive me, I hated writing it), but he either doesn’t want to work, or wants a job...

How much would Tech have to pay Thacker not to coach? That’s not it. Even at $650k salary per year, that’s not it. Not firing Thacker was it somewhat of a face saving thing for Key or Batt since Thacker was retained? Key has fired people. Demoting Thacker doesn’t save any face for Key or Batt...

And the year before last, people were asking why we didn’t have someone better than Ace Eley starting, and whether Keion White would be good once he finally came off of his injury. Last year, they played great. Eley and Thomas had better years last year than they did the year before. Linebacker...

Are you going to break out in song 🎶?

We spread out both LBs wide on that play—at least, there wasn’t a LB near the center
