A friend of mine is the treasurer for his church. A couple came in, said it was giving several thousand dollars a year to educate doctors for South America, but wanted to give it to the church, claim a tax deduction, and the church would write a check to this agency in their honor, and if they...

didn't realize it was GT Univesity when he went to school. Is that a fairly recently event?

The great thing about advanced studies in HS is that bright students willing to work at it can take 6-12 credit hours to college. And some local colleges offer courses in the summer between junior and senior years. I thought my kids saved me a bundle of money by that route. But then they went...

I can think of several reasons not to go to an institute. That being said, "university" just doesn't work at all and should be dismissed to a candidate immediately. No two coaches can explain it the same, so drop it. I have known it as the Georgia Institute of Technology since I was a boy. And...

Well, I like Johnson too, though he does test my tolerance sometimes, but let's not go overboard with this "brilliance" talk. One on thenational scene is bad enough. But it is hardly "brilliant" to name the captains at the start of the season. Why in the world would you go through six games...

By golly, I do think you have hammered that nail perfectly. And now we know the dumbed down spread option we will run in 2018: QB left, QB right, after several fullbacks up the middle. I appreciate it as part of the offense. I don't like it when it has become the offense. That aside...

That is flanking of a nature, is it not?

I do not like getting mixed up with facts and stuff. In other words, I am almost the perfect voter profile.

Was anybody able to isolate his role in that big 3rd & 5 run up the left sideline to ice the win for NE? I have only seen one replay and couldn't find him that quickly, but I know that is a play he should be pulling on and I think he was the guy with a big pancake block out front. Anybody know?

It is the nature of being a kicker and explains why they are so flaky. The last kick is the only one that counts.

One loss? Then everybody was out. What every football coach in America knows is that on any Saturday, so to speak, your 18-19 year-olds will act like, well, they are 18 or 19 years old. Happened to Clemson, to Oklahoma, to Alabama, and to Georgia. Don't know if your argument is for a conference...

Maybe I was muddled. My argument was that Alabama was 1 or 2 and no worse than 3. They bracketed them to make the all-SEC final possible rather than have one knock the other off in the first game, as Alabama did Clemson. (Maybe it is my objection to the character playing QB for Oklahoma, but...

I would bet the same game applies as to coaches' polls. A team wanting to be No. 1 will leave their top challenger off their ballot altogether, costing them descending point numbers from 2 through 10, for instance. Somebody in another thread asked if everything was political anymore. The answer...

Maybe his first question ought to be why the committee bent itself into pretzels to get two SEC teams into the championship game. To make that possible, they first had to drop Alabama all the way from 1st to 4th after a loss to Auburn, thus pairing up an SEC team with a non-league team, creating...

Ouch.

No, you don't get it. you choose to see him "pandering". I would see an evolution ... see Navy and its evolved Johnson offense with Ivin Jasper as OC. The popularity of the zone and option shotgun reads is "perceived" my foot. When the fast majority of football programs are running one version...

Hate to dwell on Clemson, but it is bringing in an Alabama O line commitment this weekend for a second visit, and what he talked about first and foremost was the new football building and facilities. They do notice.

That whole QB thing -- here, Army, Navy -- is why I think Niumatalolo would have substantially revised his offense had he taken the Arizona job, and it was clearly offered and in his hot little hands. I think he would have kept some elements from under center, including the triple option...

No, you're right. There are all kinds of examples of route options, we just never seem to throw to them though they are oftenwide open. Recall the Georgia game from 2016 when Thomas hit Stewart down the left sideline though Searcy was wide open in the middle of the field -- an occurrence I have...

Like I said, I'm not the one claiming class.
