Interesting idea that I hope goes well but the storm troopers were the bad guys. Miami = bad guys. Guess they couldn't find enough white light sabers :)

My hope is more specific. I am rooting for a 5 overtime win by Miami despite the loss of Johnson and Dorsett with twisted ankles which put them out for 2weeks. Their quarterbacks throwing hand injury was not serious, allowing him to be 70% as accurate as usual for the Tech game. Dukes valiant...

Certainly agree with all you said except Smelter "achieving this in a little over a year" . I think you would agree that this comes out of selfless character developed before Tech, although Tech can help grow character. There is such a difference between the Jameis Winston (it is all about me)...

Just watched the 4th and 15 play again. On TV they first showed the stands and the fans were going nuts, anticipating that stopping the play and therefore virtually securing the win. It must have been deafening. JT calmly ran the play, the line protected well and he put it on the money to...

Great write up as always. Your point about JT committing and going full speed is what I like most about him. Having a tentative qb run the option will not work and despite the many defense variations thrown at him, I never felt he was second guessing. His ability to scramble for yards or just...

When JT masters the offense to Tevin's level we will be at another level offensively. If TW had enjoyed JT's speed and arm, imagine how many more games we would have been one.

Too Negative to me is when there is constant hyperbole. For example had we lost by 3 many would say we stink, a loss was inevitable, coach should be fired and doesn't know football and we are not competitive etc. The fact is that we could easily have won more games the last couple of years and...

His ranking should go up after today and he should start getting some national press. Best to me is the play with the game on the line both today and last week. Such a tough environment and on 4th and 15, his pass is perfect.

I share the concerns about the defense, young team, young QB, nerves for the conference opener etc, all of which resonate as a probable loss, but that last drive against GSU makes me think this one may be different. I am going to focus on that last under pressure drive against GSU. Tech wins!

Tech 31 VT 27

Very well said. I will simply add that if I was a scholarship prospect with NFL hopes and I read the posts of many Tech supporters relentlessly arguing that my nfl dreams are far less likely by attending Tech, it might influence me to go elsewhere. If I was an opposing coach I would use it to my...

Totally agree. Why do we never win 222-0 anymore or win the SEC championship :) The reality is that Tech is unlikely to ever have the same status as the distant past. We all hope the next coach would bring Dodd-like results but many have tried and failed. In CPJ we have someone who upholds the...

The play calling was excellent and the execution great in the first half (35 points!!!). They adjust to us and execution also drops on a few plays and many seem to think it was CPJ's fault due to his crappy second half play calling. I am just glad that CPJ regained his ability to call better...

With regard to JT cutting in the wrong direction, I noticed that a couple times last week as well. IMHO he seems to have a bias toward cutting to the outside. Maybe it is a tendency he picked up in high school where he could outrun everyone by doing so, maybe he is trying to avoid the big guys...

IMHO our defense's familiarity with the option will be a big help and ultimately make the difference in the game. If our defense can hold them to less than NC State did (23 points) and we don't have major turnovers, we win going away.

I agree that overall CPJ may appear less "attractive" to prospects from a distance and could improve his public persona. That may also hurt recruiting to some extent. Sarcastically speaking, maybe we should send him to classes designed to improve his public speaking and even get him some plastic...

Tech 38 GS 27

I voted no because I think PJ is a good fit for Tech in this era. PJ tells it like it is, has a strong record in academics, and considering the level of athletes he has had, seems to be in virtually every game. Had the Groh hire not occurred, (yes he made that call) I would think his overall...

Fair enough. I think everyone has concerns and that will probably always be the case a couple games into the season. We all hope our young players will grow up quickly or this could become a long season.

Techster, if I understand correctly, since we were less successful passing against Tulane than Wofford, that means "we're probably not there yet once the talent in our opponent increased" (i.e. Tulane > Wofford). Conversely, vs Wofford we had 228 yards rushing at 5.3yds per run. At Tulane we...
