  1. Locker Room Renovation Underway

    Their big seller in "National Championship" tee shirt from 2017 was purple with orange and white lettering. Friend of mine in Clemson sent me one.
  2. Locker Room Renovation Underway

    Never knew I was a dude. Who wears levis and sneakers. But in a lot of them, nope, In some, yes, and at the least they have been okay. Have not been in Tech's. My point is pretty simple: if you want to run a class operation, as GT always says it does, then that includes the visitors. Makes no...
  3. Locker Room Renovation Underway

    Are both locker rooms -- visiting and home -- being renovated? It is not clear to me. I have been told by some using the visiting side that it is pathetically rundown and shabby. The last time this came up the response was essentially, too bad, we don't care about the visitors. But if you are...
  4. Brad Stewart's final year

    We don't know if Stewart can "go make a play" or not. Being the No. 2 receiver at Tech is like being the vice president. Everybody knows we have one, we just don't know why.

    You just keep thinking, Butch, that's what you'e good at. Not a question of him being "punished". But about the offending university. Besides, those weren't new 20s. Or 20s at all. Who knows why a college kid pulls something stupid, like the guy pretending he had multiple big time offers but on...
  6. Recruiting relationships

    Of course I don't, though I do know people who love football or basketball like life but wouldn't cheat to get there. I have seen evidence that even the venerable John Wooden knew there was cheating going on in his program -- seems all his players had new sports cars when they enrolled -- and...
  7. Recruiting relationships

    Is it just me or does it seem that every one of those automobile shots were taken on the dealer lot? At night? As a skeptic, I just wonder about such things and how in the world a U of Southern California website compiled so many pictures. I can't even find a snapshot of my kids when I need it.
  8. Recruiting relationships

    I have seen that before and it just doesn't pass the smell test. If those are all 20s then that young man had his retirement money already. And he was a 4-star. Imagine a 5. I can find no evidence of an NCAA inquiry or even that the picture caused much noise at the time. Amusing but even the...
  9. Recruiting relationships

    Supposedly (I have not seen it before) ACC players were polled about which coach they would like to play for, and they could not vote for their own coach. Swinney "won" in a walk because players thought he would be fun to play for. Swinney reacted that, "Everybody wants to play for me until they...
  10. ESPN Acquiring FOX was Huge for the ACC

    One of the things that seem to be happening as ESPN continues sweeping up every football conference on earth is that they have run out of competent announcers and analysts. Some of them I have heard are sophomoric. Juvenile, even. Then of course there are the sideline "reporters" who do...
  11. ESPN Acquiring FOX was Huge for the ACC

    I do like Herbstreit, just never know when he is on. He is the best.
  12. Recruiting relationships

    Now, see, there you go. If you mean they have big recruiting and travel budgets, and large support staffs, etc., you are absolutely right. And as far as I know, all within NCAA restrictions and guidelines. If you mean something sinister, well, let's have it. I would love to know that because I...
  13. ESPN Acquiring FOX was Huge for the ACC

    As a fellow once told me, when I find people agreeing with me I have to change my opinion. I thought I was the only one turned off by the yelling, screaming, arguing, prancing, dancing, generally juvenile programming on ESPN. I keep it on cable only because it carries ACC games, which is I...
  14. Recruiting relationships

    A coach is not going to be a very successful recruiter if he has a chip on his shoulder with the HS coaching staffs to the point he can't put past incidents aside. If a HS has a player then he has to be recruited regardless. One of those "it's just business" things. Not unlike business, as a...
  15. Is Navy losing its guy to Arizona?

    Among the many theories of management I have heard espoused is 1) if you hire somebody who was fired from his last job, it will make him try harder; 2) if the guy was fired from his last job there had to be a reason.

    Yet you'd drive cross-country with one spare tire. I am picking at you, now.
  17. Is Navy losing its guy to Arizona?

    Niumatalolo was near BYU, and had an Arizona offer in hand when he returned to the Naval Academy, so any question over his offense had been resolved. (I like to think that learning the school president sat with the sulking star QB at a basketball game made Niumatalolo's stomach turn and his mind...
  18. Overall thoughts??

    I don't argue a bit with the Oline observation, but maybe as a sop to our frustration, keep in mind that Alabama treated Clemson's offensive line like salt water taffy, and prior to that game it was a solid O line. A shaky QB making some bad decisions didn't help, but as with our QB, often he...
  19. Overall thoughts??

    Yes, during his time at Georgia Southern. One or more members of the board, I believe, are familiar with those teams. I have this vague recollection of reading of GSU coming back from something like a six TD halftime deficit to win by throwing the ball all over the field.
  20. Is Navy losing its guy to Arizona?

    I suspect if he goes he will change his offense and that is part of the offer. He might run a bit under center to show the triple, but out of the shotgun otherwise. He does some of that now. It is not that the offense doesn't work because it demonstrably does, big time. But there is that QB...
