    Jordan Yates

    I view it as a tag team. Use Yates early and keep the Pitt defense running. As they run out of gas, use Sims to run over them in the 2H.

    Mostly “Fire Geoff Collins”, some reminiscing, maybe bourbon or other distractions

    Depends on your perspective.,The GTAA wanted CPJ out in 2013. But 2014 happened and they were kinda screwed. Did they "force" him out? No. More like starved for oxygen.

    I'm not responding to that as much to the whiny comment. Please refer to to it in full.

    Ok. Fair enough. I haven't followed it for the last two years, but if all the funding coming in supports the program, great! What got Butch Jones at UT fired wasn't that he had lost the locker room (which he had) or that he was a clown (he was) or that he struggled with the local media and...

    When I have a few free cycles, I'll do it. But in the meantime, listen to how he deals with "unhappy fans". It is pretty much, "I'm not worried what our fans think. I'm here for the players and building an elite program" ... ok, fine. But don't be surprised when donors close their wallets. I...

    Do you want me to cite quotes from his pressers? He has pretty much suggested that he doesn't really care what the fans think, he's here for the players. And I get that. But you don't get very far with just players. Cut off the money tap, and resources dry up quickly. Look at the renewal on...

    Hahahaha. OMG. I need to drink another bourbon!

    Great point and I totally get it. But we all have different perspectives about what works and why. I get that the Young Turks look at me as some old fart who has done this at a very high level for 40 years as out of touch, but I've seen what works in over 100+ countries and it doesn't change...

    Just to poke at this ... I worked in corporate for a top 50 firm. We had sartorial style. And yes ... once you PROVED yourself, you could wear jeans or whatever. But until you did, you were a wannabe. Geoff may be the greatest gift to coaching of all time, but all I see is Big Hat, No Cattle...

    Great attitude. Call me when you’re an adult.

    I'm sorry. Perhaps you should grow up yourself.

    Keys to stay competitive in game vs Clemson

    I suppose I should have included the 3 touchdowns the Clemson defense scored by offensive turnovers by us. Some majors at Tech just can't fill in blanks and do hypothetical math. :ROFLMAO:

    Keys to stay competitive in game vs Clemson

    If we lose 73-6, I expect Geoff to quip, "Our defense was the best defense ever put together by a Georgia Tech coach ... ever! I know elite programs and that game plan Andy had was one of the best I have ever seen. If it hadn't a been for the 7 touchdowns Clemson scored, we would have won that...

    Game 3 #GTvsCLEM Predictions

    Three things we don't have entering the game: We don't have Clemson's talent, Clemson's depth, and Clemson's coaching. Dabo is going to be able to swap personnel all game long and keep fresh legs on both lines. I think we get manhandled for most of the game. Additionally, Dabo has something...

    #KSUvsGT Postgame Press Conference

    After beating Agnes Scott College, Geoff Collins .. Georgia Tech head coach ... and this to say, "I am very proud of this team. We have played a very difficult opponent and we have come a long way from two years ago. The offense that this team ran is very challenging and the fact that we held...

    What some of the "money" is saying

    My brother went to FSU in the 60's and it was still a majority co-ed school. I think it used to be a Teacher's College. Anyway, the ratio of 6:1 girls to guys. He said he went to every football game and never had the same date twice. Said it was as close to Nirvana as one could hope for. The...

    Keys to stay competitive in game vs Clemson

    "Keys to stay competitive in game vs Clemson" ... this almost sounds like the Polish Army asking how they should prepare to meet the German Blitzkrieg. In all seriousness, I expect a butt whipping much like Clemson put on South Carolina.

    Credit for the Win today

    It's kinda like dog bites man. We were supposed to win and did. Credit should also go the the scheduler. I listened to Saban's presser after Bama beat Mercer. He talked about missed assignments, penalties, etc and the expectation that players should be disciplined enough to be able to properly...

    I don’t have an opinion on this one way or another. But usually, there is a football operations meeting which announces the schedule ... what the timing is, band, tv, advertisers, etc. If the football didn’t know, they should have. Clearly an opportunity to improve..
