  1. Virginia Tech Postgame

    NC on the schedule has been noted, and if we can't beat them then what is the point? It is hard to understand how UNC and Duke got such a stranglehold on us every year.
  2. Virginia Tech Postgame

    Yes, Virginia, there is a ...
  3. Virginia Tech Postgame

    I am encouraged he went with Oliver, but Johnson's fault is that he fears change. He never changes QB outside of injury. And as well as Oliver played, and he played really, really well, even Johnson acknowledged tacitly after the game that with Oliver you don't get an option game. It is keeps...
  4. No one out for VT, TM will start

    Now, you come on. You managed to miss, or evade more likely, the point altogether. I did not suggest he should "tip his hand". He should not lie to the media and try to use it as his personal propaganda tool. When he does, he loses his credibility. Period. There are all kinds of ways to handle...
  5. No one out for VT, TM will start

    If he did that then it is easy to see why Johnson has no credibility.
  6. No one out for VT, TM will start

    Boy, that will fix the QB, fix the reads, fix the fumbles, fix it all. We got it! Fire the messenger! Get somebody in there who will write what the coach wants! Then nobody will notice the 3-4 record. If you win -- Mike Leach -- you are an irascible but charming eccentric. When you lose it is...
  7. No one out for VT, TM will start

    So a guy leaves the game injured and the reporter asks the head ball coach if he will play against VT and Johnson gives another one of his smarmy answers. Tell us exactly how the reporter knows the answer to that question? (In law, don't ask a question you don't know the anser to. In...
  8. So this cargo plane

    I don't have a clue where "cargo" came from, but I do know how people convey thoughts and ideas. I know, for instance, that my friend flying rescue helicopters in Vietnam was not really in an orange crate. I know an uncle on a destroyer in the Korean War was not on a tin can. And that the C119...
  9. So this cargo plane

    Now, all joking aside. I get it that the suggested aircraft was not a "cargo plane." It was, however, a dirt cheap, minimum "conveniences" airline, meaning as the story said, seats with no arm rests, no snacks, games, movies and as far as can be proved, actual jet engines. Okay, I made that part...
  10. So this cargo plane

    What? They didn't rate cattle treatment?
  11. Highly Unlikely - but what if CPJ hired an OC?

    I'm not sure that caving in to save his job is a desirable trait in a coach. He either believes his stuff works or he doesn't. You (the AD) prove it doesn't work and if it doesn't, then find a coach whose stuff does. And let's just face the facts of it: Johnson's strength has always, since his...
  12. Highly Unlikely - but what if CPJ hired an OC?

    Somebody would have to show me a notarized request, signed in blood, hand-delivered awithdelivery confirmed, before I would even ponder the possibility that Paul Johnson ever gives up control of his prized offense. I take that back. If you think you saw him say it on TV, your eyes are lying...
  13. AD sabotage the football program

    Maybe some intense therapy would bring you out of that shell.
  14. AD sabotage the football program

    There is a reason that Swinney continues to fight off any attempt by any sport to occupy part of the new football facility, and there have been several kind of half-*** efforts. What he tells the AD -- who is on board with him for obvious reasons -- and the chancell0r is that he will help any...
  15. Athletic Director's Update

    Well, if I had to wager -- and I know diddly about engineering or engineers or much any more about Georgia -- it would be that "employment opportunities" gets the blame due a living wage. Georgia might be righteously amazed at what competitive salaries, starting in the classrooms, would do.
  16. ACC Football Thread

    If he goes UNC they will learn that he has a very good arm, is an excellent runner off the option, cannot throw a deep ball reliably, and cannot make option decisions quickly enough to throw into a tight window. You know, what Alabama learned last season.
  17. Is Georgia Tech football in better spot today (2018) than when you started 2008?

    In football as in politics apparently this guy's win is always the last guy's team.
  18. Traditional passing vs option pitches/tosses

    If the objective is to throw it quick and short, well. The point has been made that our option game does that already. (I have to note I recorded and watched the Clemson game. Their throws to the boundary, one after another, reminded me of our dives up the middle in the sense that you get...
  19. AJ Gray and Jake Stickler medical redshirts

    I know that you just forwarded some information. I just have no idea what.
  20. ACC Football Thread

    They fight like they play football. Not very convincingly.
