    Conference Realignment

    A good listen (to an actual lawyer), and confirms what a lot of us have been saying - that the ACC has a strong case. He does hedge things with the caveat that there is always a chance of "judicial activism", that is, a judge who ignores the law and precedent. Just as interesting is his...

    Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    That's a decent middle ground to take on this issue. Maybe even a Sports Science degree if there is such a thing. Could be a precursor for someone interested in Sports Medicine.

    Time for the NCAA to give GT Football our ACC trophy back

    NCAA doesn't award the Heisman. It's from a private club.

    Do academics mean anything anymore at college

    I’m somewhat torn on this issue. I’m proud of my degree, the Institute, and its academic rep. I’m also proud that we have, on occasion, fielded extremely competitive teams in both primary revenue sports despite our academic requirements. I think it's pretty cool that one of our starters is a PhD...

    From what I recall, Kyle graduated after playing for us for four years. Not everyone can get accepted or desires to continue at Tech as a grad student. Regardless, your point is valid for DL in general.

    The Athletic recently published this article on the latest wrinkle with NIL. https://theathletic.com/5408966/2024/04/12/ohio-state-spring-football-ryan-day/?source=targeted_email&campaign=9567116&userId=5771622 It appears that some schools are returning to the pre-NFL-draft days when elite...

    Spring Game Expectations.

    My bad - it was the post-game interviews and stats, not the highlights.

    Spring Game Expectations.

    In Efford's post-game interview, he was asked which players on offense give him the most trouble. His answer? Jamal and Rutherford.

    Spring Game Expectations.

    In case anyone is interested, RR.com has posted game highlights and stats here: https://ramblinwreck.com/2024-white-and-gold-game/ A few interesting stats: Leading WRs performances - R-Fr Chris Elko (5/143), T-Fr Bailey Stockton (4/113). The best veteran performance was Rutherford at 5/50...

    I think we've found where the $250M is going. :LOL:

    Spring Game Expectations.

    Sharing my general impressions, many echo @danny daniel's… Offense: We have a depth of talent for the skill positions that I haven’t seen in quite some time. Not too concerned if we get into “next man up” situations at QB, RB, or WR. Some of this could be biased by Buster’s explosive play...

    Offseason Media 2024

    It's reasonable to expect our offense to improve with our returning players, plus additional talent on offense (either new or coming back from injury) and another year in the system. If both our offense and defense improve, even slightly, we'll be a problem for most of the teams we face.

    Conference Realignment

    I was about to make essentially the same argument, but you've done so in fewer words.

    Offseason Media 2024

    Good analysis, and echoes some thoughts I had about Haynes' interceptions. Last year he talked about playing "complementary football". If our defense plays better and doesn't put our offense in a position where we have to make up multiple scores just to have a chance in the second half, we...

    Happy 404 Day!

    Ok folks, if you are going to post any more photos like that, they should come with a warning. I think that one triggered some PTSD.

    Conference Realignment

    Not really a surprise that the ACC is faring poorly with an FSU alum judge in FSU's hometown. Gonna be interesting if the two lawsuits proceed in parallel.

    Conference Realignment

    Isn't it already organized this way? P5(4)/G5/D1/D2/D3, FBS/FCS, etc. What's happening now is a movement toward splitting up the highest tier (again).

    Spring Practice

    Is it just me, or does it seem like Key has added more off-field coaches to his staff than we've ever had? Not that I have a problem with that, but somehow he has been given a budget for it.

    Spring Practice

    You may be recalling discussions about Zeke's strength and conditioning efforts last season. He seems to be continuing to shed excess "bad" weight - and I'm hoping @Lil G's post is prescient. From the Clemson postgame:
