    Friends, let's talk about our Football Coach

    Heck, unless fall break and midterms are the same week as Emory you may end up with more kids in the student sections on the weekends when Tech students have traveled home than you currently get. Same for games against the smaller schools on the schedule. Maybe a Tech student doesn't want to...

    Friends, let's talk about our Football Coach

    If the GTAA knows whats good for them they have one intern or staffer assigned to read all the Tech message boards and provide a bulletins point review on the "pulse" of at least that portion of the fan base crazy enough or with enough free time to participate on these sites. So maybe they...

    Friends, let's talk about our Football Coach

    Thanks. It was the comments about Tech being elite academically and whether this can be off-putting to sidewalk fans that spurred my comment. I am a son of a Tech alum so grew up a fan of Tech teams anyway. But I know from a wide swath of experience that the academic prestige of Tech is not...

    Chop Block?

    I don't mind admitting getting lucky on some calls. However, over the course of a game I wouldn't want to overplay the importance of "getting lucky" on this or that call versus the team playing a clean and solid game. What I mean is that you put yourself in a good position by playing well so...

    your comment seems to have gotten lost GPD.

    Friends, let's talk about our Football Coach

    I have never emailed anyone at Tech. I am sure I could figure out how but if you have done so then feel free to send the ideas along. I am not proprietary about ideas to help improve the bottom line for the GTAA. I am sure that any number of variables on my ideas could be constructed as well...

    Chop Block?

    Yeah, I think it was a blown call. However . . . the ACC refs had earlier called an offensive hold against UVA so by protocol they had to find an opportunity to call a chop block on Tech's O line or they would have all been fined 5000$ and suspended w/o pay from officiating for one game. ...

    On the sidewalk aspect of fandom for Tech. If you went to a good academic school and are now living in the transient city of Atlanta like a U Michigan friend of mine then it makes total sense to gravitate to being a fan of Tech for local sports entertainment. This is very natural exactly...

    Is it possible to give Smoooth too much credit? :p Just teasing, I love Thomas and am glad he seems to have no ego (only confidence) and is a team first guy who works hard to get better every day. That is how legendary players are created, they are not born.

    Synjyn's long run

    I will "like" this post despite the bad pun. :)

    Coastal Race (new)

    Makes Butker's miss up there seem less awe-inspiringly terrible, right? :P

    Film Study - Offense vs UVA

    I have liked most of what you have written here in obvious love and support for Shamire but now you are getting yourself really stressed out over it. Tech gets hosed often for supposed chop blocks where a DL just holds on to one OL guy who is trying to get past him while the OL dude who is...

    Days or Laskey?

    It is really odd to try and pretend there is a BB controversy when a) the starter had a serious injury and has not been available for 2 games and b) both players after those 2 games that the backup did a great job in now have either 4 or 5 games left in their entire collegiate career. Add in...

    GT - UVA postgame thread

    I like the sun bowl reference. I would add in that it did seem that everyone was wrapping up and tackling better.

    Days or Laskey?

    Given they are both seniors this will not amount to much of a controversy. It isn't like they are sophomores. Even when Laskey gets back he shouldn't be allowed to take a full game of punishment. At least not immediately, so they can split time pretty evenly even and Synjyn still get some...

    Go Jackets

    Take it for what it is worth but the actual etymology and usage of dominant in play should be the original meaning far older than the contemporary sexual connotation unfortunately added to the term. It is from the Latin dominare which mean to rule or govern. Same root for "dominion." So in the...

    Any news on Gamble?

    Its called anti-CPJ trolling. Assume the worst and spout off about it.

    Synjyn Days: Better Late Than Never

    But the point from Big Philly is that Synjyn could never have been put at BB originally because it took him longer than others to overcome his fumble-itis. I do not recall it in great detail but I also think he was moved from QB to AB originally because of his size and blocking ability more...

    Then maybe the Coastal isn't crappy.

    The OL

    I have never considered myself one capable of judging the job Sewak has done. But I do know two things worth noting here. 1) He has always gotten a lot of grief for not being a guy who gave any serious effort into recruiting, and worse of having a bad reputation as far as interaction with...
