  2. Athletic Director's Update

    Money is not a problem as compared to what? Georgia? Clemson? Alabama? Miami? VT? Somehow I don't see Tech ever paying $6-$7 million for a coach, and if they did they still would need every other thing in place ... including liberal arts. I read into the AD's letter that Johnson can punch above...
  3. Athletic Director's Update

    Well, he might throw a punch but it would be wild high. Because the problems we are having all begin with the QB. Fix that and the rest can be ratcheted into line. But bad reads,, bad decisions, bad pitches, bad passes ... just add up to 1-3. My question is this: if freshmen can play in four...
  4. ACC Football Thread

    It might only be a "few plays," but consider the math: they run 'em both directions. I think. When Woody Hayes had Bob Ferguson he ran only one play in one direction. See how much better it is when looked at that way? (When Ferguson failed as a fullback for the Pittsburgh Steelers Woody allowed...
  5. ACC Football Thread

    Now that's a good get. And it probably was his phone number or such. Richt got a kick out of it anyway.
  6. ACC Football Thread

    Even better than all of that is that after this the insufferable egotist and worshipful grandmaster of offense and chief cheerleader for the goofy "Football is America" clique, Larry Fedora, will be yesterday's toast now, and the 7th turnover from the Miami game. Sorry. Can't stand the guy...
  7. ACC Football Thread

    Everything else aside, no way. The reason even if he were interested and he is not -- and he is reportedly a very good student so it's not the curriculum -- is that he was far too slow in making his option reads even from the shotgun and for the last two years Clemson has lost much of its...
  8. ACC Football Thread

    No question. I think Saturday vs. Syracuse, the only team to beat them last year when Bryant went out in the second quarter with an injury that hobbled in through the first quarter, and unbeaten so far this year, will be instructive for Clemson, the ACC and the NC race. Those four guys on the D...
  9. ACC Football Thread

    The unfortunate thing, or maybe not, is that nobody over there or NFL scouts thinks that Bryant is an NFL prospect. They do think because of his size, speed and running ability he could play wide receiver but he rejected all suggestions he consider that. Swinney wanted to keep him but was honest...

    Actually, I do like this.
  11. Arrests coming due to college bball kickbacks

    The board will be better off if the political junkies use another forum.
  12. Arrests coming due to college bball kickbacks

    News flash: Bin Laden still dead.
  13. Miscommunication???

    We seem to be looking at every mistake on defense, but I don't think it is that bad. Seriously. That first TD pass in the corner of the EZ to the Renfrow kid was a first rate, NFL throw to a receiver pretty well covered. Over one defender, just beating another coming up. Not sure you can defense...
  14. ACC Football Thread

    For those who think Tech has a lot of departures for whatever reason, Clemson has had its share but topped off yesterday when former QB starter Kelly Bryant, demoted to No. 2 after the day Trevor Lawrence had against us, announced he is leaving the school and will play somewhere else next...
  15. Arrests coming due to college bball kickbacks

    If I say no does that make me negative?
  16. Do you remember when you became a Tech fan?

    Dodd's defenses in the '50s probably. Maybe even in part of the '60s. For a guy who was a runner, passer and kicker, Dodd knew how to build a defense and how to recruit to it. Plus he had Ray Graves and Frank Broyles as assistants ... no slouches there.
  17. Anyone remember Vad Lee ?

    Ah, now. I believe that is called "hyperbole", and not intended to encourage nor discourage posting. It was simply to note Johnson did as he said he would do recruiting the kid. At least according to Lee or his spokesmen, I don't remember which. He put him 6-7 yards back to give him time to...
  18. Anyone remember Vad Lee ?

    Johnson did adapt. What you are talking about is complaining that Johnson did not scrap his offense in the hopes that Lee could play at the "5" level. He got his chance. He couldn't. He went to JMU and did really well, and good for him for finding his level. No, he couldn't run the option...
