More than 30 years ago I heard LSU legend Jerry Stovall and a Clemson steel fabricator openly discuss payments. In the last five years I heard one story of an attempted SEC payment to a NC HS star that I would lend credence to. Otherwise I have heard stories of automobiles, but never seen them...

I don't have a clue as to why this has to be such an emotional issue. The protest has nothing to do with supporting the troops or the military at all. Agree or disagree, but calling them unpatriotic is over the top...

The magic number the coaches were talking about, I was told, is nine wins. I don't think so, but neither would I be surprised if the win total is 4-5 again. Facts can be very uncomfortable things.

I very distinctly remember a distinctly rememberal 4th and 15 against VT to a curling Smelter late in the game we won. Sobering fact is that no offense can be designed for 3rd or 4th and forever. Anybody who could do that would use it on every play.

I think most good football coaches live in fear of the "well meaning" alum who plays big man on campus by handing 20-year-old a $100 bill, or worse, five players $50 bills. No matter how many times the boosters club is warned or the players admonished, it is always a violation waiting to happen...

I don't think Johnson even flinches at seven yards. You do. I do. He doesn't. Of course third and long invites passing, though we have seen Johnson get 15 or more on that funky counter draw to an Aback. But the debate is not 3rd and forever, when your situation speaks for itself. (Sometimes I...

This is an evergreen argument on the board, world without end amen. But what we think matters not. It is what Johnson thinks. And he does not see "50%" as a magic number. To throw down range -- to engage the "when we pass we mean it" mantra -- means GT quarterbacks aren't getting those 8-10 yard...

"Evidence"? Such as? (And this from somebody is prepared to believe the worst about Newton. But make the case.)

I might want to believe a lot about a lot of programs but this one as usual is sorely lacking in the essentials: facts. Sources. Names. It's a message board, it is the internet, and anybody can say anything about anybody most anytime ... anonymously. It's what makes social media so toxic and...

Well, I did. (And the only thing I have a real problem with him about -- bolting Tennessee is what coaches do; wave cash at them and they'll give 20 minutes notice, to the secretary on the way to the parking spot -- is his sideline conduct when we played USC in the Sun Bowl. It is not that he...

Thanks for the tip.

Thanks.

Impressive, yes. But a question that has bothered me forever and nobody can seem to answer: when we see an offer sheet, how do we know it is legit? (From anybody. I am not taking sides here.) I see on other boards an occasional offer and the kid then lists 15-20 schools, right across the P5...

I think you are trolling oldjacketfan. I do. I really do.

just guessing but from here on he QB is in a yellow jersey.

Now, you do realize that "seven figures" is from $1 million to $9 million, right? I'm a right-brained person but I can count 'em. There's a smell test here and it doesn't make it. But in something completely unrelated except it involves Muschamps, he says the Maryland coach is a great guy, fine...

Anybody have any information on the scrimmage injury to Tech's backup QB, Lucas Johnson? With this GT is working without a net at QB, with Marshall and a true freshman.

What upsets you so? Illegal attacks on amateurism in a pay-for-play scheme that turns the playing field upside down ... or somebody ratting it out?

In something completely unrelated but Tech fans will shout agreement in unison, apparently there was a lot of talk at the ACC get-together and confidential polls and whatnot,and the judgment on Mark Richt at Miami was a puzzled, "Apparently he thinks his players are better than your players so...

Four wins is not even a threshhold. If we win but four he ought to quit. But neither is happening.
