It will be a difficult decision. If the administration would loosen the restrictions a little bit and with our support system in place I would be happy to got to a more conventional offense and tap into some of that instate talent. Trouble is, I don't think that is a viable option at this...

Tennessee may have lost more than anyone we play except maybe Clemson. I read one of those NFL Draft magazines where they break down the best players by position group generally the best dozen or so who will be drafted. Anyway, Tennessee had a player in just about every position group but...

I am going out on a limb and stake out a contrarian position. In the Atlantic, I like FSU. I understand the OP viewpoint concerning the Wolf Pack but until they prove themselves I will go with the proven winner and that the Seminoles. In the Coastal, I understand Boomer's reasoning but I...

Maybe that is one reason why the number one team in the nation in February (TIC of course) has chronically underachieved relative to the talent.

We are in fine hands at Bback between Mills, Kirvonte, and Q. Very nice pieces for Paul to play with. A friend of mine who goes to all the games including the spring game claims that the defense will be the best yet under Roof. I know low ceiling and all that. I hope so because I don't...

I would be willing to bet that Dwyer's FIRST year as a starter he was running faster than the combine time. Seems like AA's time is about right. I really think that Dedrick is a little bit faster than the 4.77 but none of that really matters. What's important is that you are correct in...

Yep, that Carter was a nasty customer all right and the other one Sturdivent (spelling?) was just about as bad a dude as you would ever want to have on your team. Tell you what, Dwyer and Nesbitt were fortunate to survive that day. I bet they have nightmares about those two guys (among others).

Nothing is sacred in college football anymore. Today's dynasty is a scandal away from becoming tomorrow's laughingstock. It can change on you just that fast.

Yep, that highlight of him trucking number 2 of Virginia is an all time favorite. At least number 2 did his best, number 53 just dived at Dwyer's ankles. Also, not to demean the efforts of the linemen of that era but the plain fact of the matter is that our line today is WAY better than...

"Thickly built" Yes, that describes him to a T. He is like that all over. Big thighs that drive through arm tackles with shoulders and neck to match. A prototype of what a Bback should look like.

He does look bigger. Mills is that very rare Georgia Tech recruit who came here "oven ready" as the saying goes. The comparisons to Dwyer are interesting but they are not the same. As big as Dwyer was he was not quite the bruiser that Mills has been. He was more of a one cut and take it to...

Amazing. Even in a discussion about futuristic coaching changes and recruiting the ever present issue of uniforms comes up. I appreciate the author's insights and willingness to go out on a limb. The one thing I do not wish to see is Coach Johnson hanging on like Bobby Bowden and Joe...

Quite right, he has paid a price and perhaps will learn from it.

My apologies for letting my emotions get the better of me. After 30 years of teaching high school, I should know better than anyone that young people are "going to do what they are going to do" It is just that I have seen several lives disrupted, sometimes catastrophically by the pernicious...

Drive it? Like the son of a ***** that was high on weed that drove 50 mph through a stop sign killing my aunt? For that reason alone, I will never support legalization. I am open to lessening penalties to say a couple hundred for possession but that's about it. This country has more pot...

Now that is impressive. He is indeed, as one poster said, "a poor man's Dwyer" We may never in our lifetimes witness a complete reincarnation of the Great One, Dwyer but Kirvonte will be a great one in his own right with continued hard work and learning the nuances of blocking, the mesh, etc.

These are good ideas but not what I would do if I were "Coach for a Day" If it were me, I would negotiate a buyout, turn the reins over to Coach Johnson and take a seat in the West Stands, drink a Coke, complain about the quarterback (doesn't matter who it is), gripe about the uniforms, whine...

A good observation. You can find some that are big. You can find some that are fast. But it is very hard to find any that are big AND fast. Defensive tackles are precious and few except for the football factories that seem to have no problem getting them. The rest of us must make do...

Yeah, the 4 and 5 star guys are the ones the other team is pointing at when lining up. TIC. An interesting observation on Eric Berry, Cam Newton and Cooper Taylor.

This is impressive. I knew those guys were good but was not aware that their offer sheet was that eye popping. I am assuming that the reason we got Jones was because we promised to play him at quarterback which was the same situation with Justin Thomas. I am still amazed that we got both...
