After reading the author of the article reasoning, I was inclined to agree. (about Butch being underrated and a really good coach) After all, Fulmer himself said that Butch inherited a "real mess". Then I read the comments, principally from Tennessee fans and boy howdy they did not agree and...

I know just the thing to take the edge off everyone's off season blues... a, dare I say it? UNIFORM THREAD!

Opposing fans do not know about Parker and Will but by George I bet opposing PLAYERS will find out more than they want to know by the end of this season.

I wonder why? We saw that old school draw play a bunch with Dwyer but not since.

I still don't know what "the business" really was but I can imagine it was um extracurricular in nature.

Well now, you would have fit right in back in the day. Dodd always considered Tennessee to be the biggest game of the year for him personally. (He was an All American quarterback at UT) Once he went up to Kim King and told him: "You know I played here " (Neyland Stadium in Knoxville)...

Unless of course you are in the game when Ron Cherry is officiating and you give someone "THE BUSINESS" as he infamously put it one day.

Ed was a great player for us. He could block, run, and catch passes. Unfortunately, he was never the same after that knee injury his senior year in high school and that limited him to about 15 or so snaps a game during the Hamilton era. Charlie Rogers, Phillip Rogers, Charles Wiley, Joe...

It is a fool's errand to compare players from different eras. That said, all of the players on that list were excellent football players for Georgia Tech. As one poster said, I personally would put Dewberry in there somewhere. Joe Ham would be the best at 1A and everybody else at 1B in...

There really isn't anyone in the Johnson era to compare him to. He is violent, hits the hole very hard, runs low to the ground with really fine body lean. He is probably more the prototype of what Coach Johnson wants in a Bback than anyone we have had. To be truthful, I would rather have him...

True. He damned near destroyed our program. Now he has a twofer on his resume.

This is interesting on many levels. I did not know or forgot that Miami with all its talent has yet to win a division much less win the ACC. From this listing, the elite of the ACC would appear to be Virginia Tech, FSU, Clemson, and GT. FSU has made the most of their opportunities with 4...

"Destroyed it you say?" Imagine that, the man is literally the gift that keeps giving. A pity that UGA did not see the wisdom in hiring him.

THAT'S IT!! My dad spent many an hour in that place.

I agree. There is "elite" as in talent and public perception which would be FSU and Clemson. Then there is elite in being in the running pretty much every year. That would be GT, Virginia Tech, and I would add Miami to that list although they haven't won anything. Don't know about the...

You do understand that at my age I can remember when a touchdown lead in the fourth quarter was money in the bank. Gee, Bobby Dodd, General Neyland, and Bear Bryant are rolling in their graves at the sight of this constant going up and down the field. "Five touchdowns a game"? What's the...

Someone once called Joe Frank Burns a "smaller power back. So he was, and a fine player for us with balance, body lean, and a no nonsense attitude.

Wouldn't doubt it. It was "old" when I was a boy attending Tech games and my dad pointed it out as where he took most of his classes. Although the building in the picture is not the one he went to class in. The building he used was much older located on the Hill on the west side of the...

I was afraid of this. You are probably right. He will need to get better against the spread teams like UNC but I don't know if his skill set will permit it.

Now I really remember who Mills reminds me of: That fullback for Marist back in the day that trucked me on the way to the endzone.
