    The ND "putdown" has already started.

    My interaction with BVG - and I've known and gotten along with just about every Southern coach from Erk through Monken - was limited to that greeting at practice. But none of my Boro peeps or anybody I know in the media who dealt with him had anything good to say about him.

    GT-ND notes

    N CAA didn't count their stats because they were in transition. By official NCAA measures, Tech led the nation, IIRC.

    CPJ Radio Show 14 Sep 2015

    Listened on the gameday app, since the Savannah affiliate was carrying the Willie Fritz Show. Worked great.

    The ND "putdown" has already started.

    When PJ was coaching at Southern, I went to practices a lot, even after I moved from Statesboro. I would go by once every few weeks and a lot of times, it would be just me and PJ talking for the first five or six periods of practice. I came down once during a BVG era practice and some of the...

    The ND "putdown" has already started.

    It wasn't so much he made derogatory comments about the offense. He made derogatory comments about the program and its facilities as a whole. PJ's retort - and I believe this was in an AJC article at the time - was along the lines of "it didn't seem to bother us when we were winning national...

    A couple of concerns

    Concerns? Other than generating more of a pass rush out of the four man front, I don't think I have any. And that scares me.

    GT Getting Attention From Coastal GA Media

    It's heavy in OLB types. Unless the Thompson kid can flat own the GCG by himself, that last Saturday in November might be a lot of zone and belly. They could get a big ole dose of Skov all day long.

    GT Getting Attention From Coastal GA Media

    I don't argue that Vandy and IU are historically bad. But Pitt? Tony Dorsett, Hugh Green, Dan Marino and Johnny Majors might want to have a word. They had a 10 win season six years ago. They won a national championship in 76 and 22-2 in 79-80. They're 19th all time in wins. They had a bowl...

    GT Getting Attention From Coastal GA Media

    While Georgia hasn't won an SEC title in 10 years, Richt has won or tied for first in the East six times, the last coming in 2012 when they lost the SECCG to Bama. He's got nine 10 win seasons at Georgia. After Richt won his last SEC title in 05, the SEC has seven straight national champions...

    GT Getting Attention From Coastal GA Media

    Yeah, pretty much. The SMN, since it has a sister paper in Athens (and it's in the same chain with Augusta), gets up all the Mutts' butt, but they're usually at least decent with Tech coverage. The TV stations down here sometimes do some headscratching things. Naturally, there is a lot on the...

    GT Getting Attention From Coastal GA Media

    The centerpiece of today's Savannah Morning News was a story on a UAB transfer playing for ... the Mutts. With a big picture of the crowd at Sanford Stadium to go with the story (curious choice - there wasn't a picture of the guy playing at all. Just a big crowd shot). Almost threw up my chicken...

    Green Wave gears up for ground-proud Georgia Tech

    Quayshawn's pick and return from right in front of the goal line was huge at the time. We put the pedal down in the second half but the first half was pretty ragged.

    Notre Dame has some talent. Texas has very little.

    Mouth agape at ESPN CFB Daily (ACC vs SEC)

    Didn't an ACC team go 2-0 against ranked SEC teams last year? I know it happened. Just can't seem to put my finger on who it was. Hmmm......

    Driven

    Oh did we have a blast in Orlando. And not just because somebody was setting off firecrackers in our hotel room at 3 in the morning, either. We ran into John Dewberry at some bar and had a few cold ones with him. He had some good stories.

    ESPN likes Georgia Tech???

    They make it seem like once we hit mid August, all we do is practice against our own O. Which we don't do. Which no one does. Who cares what we do in spring and the start of camp? You're not going to spend time prepping for someone else on the schedule in spring. But once we hit the middle of...
