  1. Back up QB

    I don't really think so. And if Marshall has small hands -- Washington for instance -- then it is compounded.
  2. Virginia Tech postgame discussion

    guys who say things like that should be immediately challenged: 10 years, how many knees? take all the time you want. But the answer is zero. I can accept some of that boorish behavior by Johnson just knowing people like VT feel it worse.
  3. Back up QB

    He can work on technique and fundamentals to improve his passing -- something Thomas was not really all that interested in -- but his arm strength is what it is going to be. Once they gave QBs certain weights to strengthen the shoulder in the event his arm his grabbed while he was throwing, but...
  4. How good are we?

    I would be really concerned with their defensive backfield when the three injured players are back. They are targeting the SC game before the ACC championship. And you hardly have the best QB in the conference. That defense is way more than the defensive line. Which is not to say it is not...
  5. How good are we?

    Maybe so, but it is a much stronger conference they would contend with. If so the ACC should tell them all that NBC money, whatever is left, now is conference cash. But personally I never wanted to go back with the girl who already dumped me, and I had altogether too much experience in that. I...
  6. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    Yes, this has to be true.
  7. How good are we?

    Notre Dame is Notre Dame as Notre Dame once was. it starts every year 8-0 and then plays a game. It is downhill for them the rest of the way because these selectors/pollsters love the sound of "Notre Dame:" It is so comforting: if they pick ND, how can they be wrong? Didn't help my mood any...
  8. 2017 Bowl Projections

    That wasn't a stumble. That was a stomping. I was gonna "like" this, but I don't like ND.
  9. 2017 Bowl Projections

    Per SI: just a curbstone opinion, but I do not believe Johnson, and maybe the others, will ever agree to playing each other in a bowl. Seems to me a lot to lose and nothing to gain, and if these offenses are not fan-friendly not sure a bowl would match them up.
  10. How good are we?

    When he holds on to the ball, he is special in this offense. And VT were doing their best to tear it loose and didn't. What in the world would Johnson have done had the other two Bbacks stuck around, because they aren't cotton candy. Clemson, by the way, barring further injury should have the...
  11. How good are we?

    Still upset, are you? A tip, out of genuine concern for your, ah, image: you really, really, do not want to play Clemson. You really don't.
  12. Who is your GT Fantasy Football Coach?

    In extreme long-ranging planning, it will take an AD with as backbone of titanium to bring back the same offense. Those of us who like it love it, but a bunch don't and make a lot of noise. Unfortunately, there is not a long skein of double-digit or 9-win seasons to point to. Ultimately it will...
  13. Who is your GT Fantasy Football Coach?

    You ought to put a caveat on this one: "assuming they are gettable". Because a bunch of names in here Tech could not get with a howitzer. But with a couple of months (with a bowl) left, we already see the foreshadowing of a loopy-laced offseason message board. Already we are talking about...
  14. 2017 Coaching Carousel

    Is there room in college football for Gruden and Jim Harbaugh? Those guys together would suck the air out of the Superdome.
  15. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    Nah. There is some question with his personality and sideline excitability and again, his LB boy is arriving at Clemson. But would he get to bring along his Get Back Coach, and the Get Back Coach of the Year award Swinney gave him? He has minimal interest and questionable sideline presence for a...
  16. 2017 Coaching Carousel

    A couple different sources in and around the Tennessee program shared information on Monday that seems to point to the fact Gruden may be a more realistic candidate for the Vols’ head coaching position than many may think. I am tell you this was written by Peyton Manning. There is no limb this...
  17. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    I wonder. It's why coaches get the big bucks. If either of those had hit we would be gnashing our teeth at another one get away. You know, what if that pooch kickoff by Alabama against Clemson in the NC game two years ago had been recovered by Clemson? A great call becomes "He gave it away,"...
  18. 2017 Coaching Carousel

    Well, in the U.S. Senate, would Peyton Manning actually be expected to ... express an opinion?
  19. 2017 Coaching Carousel

    what do you guys do to deserve this up there? If he does he will think that the press questions he got as a player were submitted by his daddy. He has an awful lot to explain.
  20. The day after

    Might there also be a huge measure of academic envy?
