Yep. I taught high school in south Georgia for over 25 years and the one constant throughout my time was that young people live for the moment. Pretty much the case. It's what they do. I still cringe at the stupid stuff I did. That said, I am not so sure that living in the "now" at 18...

A pity. He looks like what you would want in a defensive end. That photo has "football player" all over it. That said, injuries and discouragement are tough things for young people to overcome. Probably best that he start over somewhere else. Best of luck to him.

One thing you can be pretty sure of with Tennessee, talent across the board will NOT be a problem. As has been the case for quite a while, getting them to reach their potential is problematic. They have the potential to be really good IF they can find a quarterback which is a big IF.

We are so dependent upon precise reads and blocking the right guy that it seems to take a couple of weeks to get the timing down. Maybe there is some truth to that old adage: "When the leaves are turning, the option starts churning." The footwork and choreography between the quarterback...

This is very true. One year I was watching Tech play Maryland during the Joe Ham era with a Georgia fan. Tech got a turnover on its side of the 50 with under 30 seconds to play. My UGA friend remarked confidently that Tech should try and move to within field goal range. I told him to...

Now you have done it. I am totally confused. I am going to bed.

Anything I say on GT Swarm is overrated Anything that Vamos, Longest Day, Ballin, or Boomer says is underrated. There, that should settle it.

I wonder if the coaches think that Bonds and Askew are a good swap for the two that left? I can't remember the last time we got this level of talent in one class for DBs.

Did we win more than we lost? 24 ppg is not bad but if we can just a little bit better it would make all the difference in the world. I just think we tend to do better with games in the teens or twenties rather than up and down video game shootouts. That ridiculous game with UNC a few...

Is there a stat for: Stop em when you gotta stop em? Asking for a friend.

I am of two minds about this. I understand the idea that a tortured fan base has high expectations that are seldom met BUT UGA does have a couple of SEC championships, a boatload of division championships and the oh so close loss to Alabama in the SEC Championship a few years ago that had the...

"Ballin" is correct, as usual, 17 to 21 points given up by a defense in this day and age should be enough to win 95% of the time. Really, for our team if we hold opponents to about 24 points we should win. Hold our opponents to say 3 TDs and a field goal, throw in a turnover or two along with...

Yes, me too. Not that I thought it was the end of the world but MM played a great game at Georgia. His last run was something to behold down that sideline breaking at least 3 tackles. But I think we are in good hands with Kirvonte. He sees the opportunity and will make the most of it...

Yes, it was Nealy making a play at the end of the long run. If Sony had to do it over, he would not have tried that extending the ball at the pylon trick as that was a factor in his losing possession also. Well, now that I look at it more closely I think that Nealy just ripped it out as he...

I think one of my posts was one that was deleted and probably deserved to be. Best be forgotten and look to a successful and hopefully injury free end to spring practice.

Pretty much spot on Jmonty. In all likelihood, the offense will have to carry us (sigh again). The defense will have their moments but in several games will probably look like a sieve. I hope I am wrong about that but it has been a constant for quite a while. The offensive line MUST...

TOP is generally overrated in today's game. It is critical, though, when you have a weak defense and depend on running the football. For most teams it is overrated but for our team it is important, if not crucial, in protecting a defense that has not been good since 2008 or so. As another...

I don't doubt that is true but you must take into account that in most things, especially technology, I am still stuck in the Twentieth Century. I was "Old School" before old school became cool.

"QUAntum leap"? Is that what it is called now? Pretty good. Yep, that's what it was all right. Mr Q has forever earned a place in the hearts of Georgia Tech fans with that one outrageously athletic play to win that game. Joining all of the aforementioned, great plays in Tech history...

It is true that we have a "locked in" starter at Bback. Nonetheless, all it takes is a hit on the knee, a wrong step, a "non contact injury" and then KB and QW will have to play. Are they ready? They need to be because it can happen at any time. This is more likely to occur at Bback than...
