Post of the decade.

With today's zone read and RPO offenses I think more realistically we should look to the 24-28 point range and at that with most teams I would cheer for our defense. Seriously. Fifteen is a gift of the gods. Johnson's offense is going to score, but if the D can take the score-every-possession...

Until our defense proves itself I am afraid of Deshaun Watson's cafeteria crew.

For the same reason your cable and telephone companies want to bundle your services. Hard to unwrap the axle when telephone, cable and internet are on the same bill. But yes, I am one of those people now, and I expect any day for the cable to fail and the telephones to go silent and the internet...

In one of my career iterations I was the dreaded consultant to various kinds of business or industry. The one thread that ran through every one of these stops was an almost complete misunderstanding of "the press" and the resulting fear of or disdain for it ... though they knew nothing about it...

Now, take a deep breath. Stop blaming "the media". Get off the "haters gonna hate!! yadda yadda yadda because it is probable even his detractors don't hate the man, but now it is a word thrown out there like confetti to replace conversation. It seems apparent he was, is, not happy and was in...

The secret to all good kick runners.

I think it can fairly be said he seemed not very enthusiastic even by his normal demeanor. Not sure what to make of that, but it doesn't seem good.

Underselling the program hardly qualifies as promoting himself, right? I'm sorry if he thinks break-even is realistic -- it is disappointing -- but I would be one very surprised Georgia cracker (back when we were allowed to say that) if he coaches that way on Saturday. A news flash that should...

Too bad his teammates think it's funny and enable this. I'd like to see more accountability player-to-player team-wide. Swilling's experience level begs for playing time, and Alcorn State would be the best time to get it. He is going to get used as they get into the meat of the schedule.

and always check ESPN3 or ESPNU just in case. Not an ideal way to watch but it is often there.

The only safe bet with Georgia Tech football is that there is never a safe bet.

Johnson does not seem to have banned his players from social media for the football season. I read the other day that as of now Swinney has imposed his annual social media blackout for his players. They apparently can read but can't post anything. Not new to Clemson & Swinney and probably not a...

At $1.9 million per already, he was not exactly on beans and rice, was he? I still have great memories, even if the recording was lost to a move, of Mason rolling over Mississippi State in the Orange Bowl. It was not even fair.

I have to think he kinda does.

looks like Mason was recognized rightly enough. https://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/patriots/2018/08/27/patriots-sign-guard-shaq-mason-five-year-million-contract-extension/YIdrYX55NXlJnoin4WXmmN/story.html

Picking and choosing the games won't be easy but with what amounts to another half year of eligibility, it has to be used for experience. Dunno who he might play against if given the chance, but my money is not on Clemson or Georgia. In fact, for a coach historically as reluctant as Johnson to...

Speaking of which -- fighting for a contested ball -- Clemson positions nobody is making much noise about are their WR slots. Earlier in August Swinney revealed his frustration with his 2017 receivers, guys who could run but were not willing to wade into traffic for the ball. That killed them...

Send me just 50 bucks and I will make up what you want.

I don't know how that plays out technically speaking, but we can be pretty certain that now that Venables goes two-deep, quality deep, across his defensive front, every down will be a jailbreak from LBs and corners and looping his tackles who can really move. I think Foster at VT is really...
