There apparently is a guy broadcasting for South Carolina who is a bigger jerk. A guy named Todd Ellis, who apparently played QB for his alma mater also -- tell me it doesn't come with the position -- was mouthing off before the Clemson game that a) Swinney and company were "scared to death" of...

just a question, a serious one because I am curious as to the affection for Tennessee: why does any GT fan concern himself a minute about the Tennessee coaching position? As Jonathon Winters would say, Why, why?

Remember the 2012 Sun Bowl? Kiffin's USC team blew off the traditional dinner, getting there so late Johnson had already hauled his Tech players back to the hotel. Then his players proceeded to trash the game and the city, resulting in GT having 47,000 fans at the game they won. I remember...

Replacing Johnson -- whenever for whatever -- is not all that complicated really. Get the guy who can win just one game a week without alienating radio DJs, but if he does agree to apologize profusely and publicly, bloggers, message board experts (and acknowledge we all know more than him...

Okay, then might I say this: If one with more money than he can be trusted with offers "millions" to fire a coach, is it a one-time offer, or every year? Because a one-time fix is not a permanent solution. We'd have the same expenses next year as this year's millions fixed. Besides which, I...

Most on the board would not disagree with this. These are some of the reasons we were 5-6, and even with this, two lousy plays away from being 7-4. But as Johnson, the notorious non-excuse maker, said, coudda or shoudda means diddly. The board serves as a wonderful sin-eater for all that anger...

If you say so. Then the obvious: the name, please.

You were "at" which game?

That "insider information" came from a now identified source: the GT Swarm message board.

then you don't give, do you?

You are new to the board I see. Soon you will know saying this is heresy. In their minds everybody wants to be some sort of engineer and if not should be forced to do it.

The last act of a desperate man.

My lord, forget another game. Get in the locker room. Lock the door before they follow us in. It is time for next year.

I belatedly read Bradley's piece and it's a good piece and in my mind a fair judgment. Maybe because he is saying what diehard Johnson fans don't want to admit --- maybe those 7-5 or 6-6 years are regressions to the mean and we have to live with it -- and what the fire-the-coach crowd says every...

Put out the fire in your hair, take several deep breaths to stop the hyperventilating, quit writing in capital letters, and remember that presumably everybody posting has some amount of exposure to higher education, and then act like it. Start by posting like real adults. The "Fire everybody"...

An old newspaper banner from the turn of the 1900s reported "Interesting if true" to late telegraph news. What is true with an option offense is that the QB is constantly looking to see if the D has jumped and changed the count and thus he must adapt, what this inside information from an...

From someone who does not pretend to grasp Johnson's offense, but: you would do well to to watch carefully what Johnson is doing to set up his fly routes -- to get a Tech receiver one-on-one downfield to make a play -- when the safeties and corners start cheating up and skating to the edge. It...

Well, that and that unexplainable loss to Tennessee makes the Duke debacle even harder to live with. Clemson I get because they are really, really good. But Duke...it was like having your youngest female cousin beat you up in a yard fight and send you in the house crying.

Pittsburgh blew the doors off Miami's season this afternoon, 24-14, Miami's first loss. They have a tough road to the playoffs now, making a win over Clemson a requirement. But again their QB -- I thought a weak link against us -- failed them. But give Pitt -- and the ACC -- credit. They beat...
