    2024 ACC Football Schedule Reveal - Jan 24th, ACC Network and ESPN2

    So, what are you assuming for our program in 2024? Our regular-season win record since our last "good" season (2016) is 5, 7, 3, 3, 3, 5, and 6. Just stating facts, not trying to disrespect our football program, because Key finally has it on an upward trajectory. But most unbiased observers...

    2024 ACC Football Schedule Reveal - Jan 24th, ACC Network and ESPN2

    I don't disagree with your overall take, just the notion that the MBS game will be unpopular with most fans and that we will see poor attendance there. Outside of uga, which had unique factors, the Louisville game last year was the highest-attended "home" game of the season, despite Louisville...

    Adidas Contract Expiring

    I suspect there was a lot of "over-selling" done on both ides of that contract.

    Adidas Contract Expiring

    Not familiar with any "robotic shoe research", but there was mention of a "robot-powered shoe factory" in this article linked from the other one: https://www.ajc.com/sports/college/how-georgia-tech-and-adidas-came-together/TzFmbOPrvlb0RhoAeTCr3J/. Maybe that's what you were remembering...

    Adidas Contract Expiring

    GT's Adidas contract was reported here: https://www.ajc.com/sports/college/details-georgia-tech-agreement-with-adidas/hebjv2I3PIBh8K6b2QwVdJ/ GT initially was receiving only $200k annually, although there was a look-in clause to allow either party to reevaluate the market and make changes after...

    Haynes King Update: How Do We Feel About Him?

    I watched two LSU games - the opener against FSU and parts of LSU-Bama (both LSU losses). Daniels is the real deal, although I saw Penix's playoff game against Texas and thought his was also a Heisman-worthy performance. Regardless, I didn't watch this year's Heisman ceremony and don't...

    Conference Realignment

    I was thinking more of the ESPN agreement with my statement about the ACC not having to share it, but to your point, I won't be surprised to see everything out in public before long.

    Conference Realignment

    There’s no direct connection between state taxes paid and AA revenue (or lack of), at least as far as the GTAA is concerned. Not sure about Florida. I disagreed with another poster earlier over the marginal cost to the Institute of a GT football player, but if GTAA revenue from the conference...

    Haynes King Update: How Do We Feel About Him?

    2023's Jayden Daniels of LSU was 9 - 3 regular season as well.

    Thanks, I was always referring to the GOR agreements exclusively, perhaps that wasn't clear.

    Conference Realignment

    I'm going to attempt to re-phrase my question again since I don't seem to be able to communicate clearly. There are two agreements in circulation - the 2013 GOR and the 2016 amendment which extended the term to 2036. Both these two are linked in the article you linked (good article, by the...

    Still don't see how "There's a later amendment" follows from speculation that there might be changes to documents simply because we haven't seen one.

    Conference Realignment

    I'm re-reading @Techster's post "That GOR has been updated, and there are new amendments since 2016." and don't see the word "might".

    Conference Realignment

    I'm interpreting your statements to mean that there is a post-2016 amendment to the GOR. If this is a fact, can you link or quote anything that supports this?

    Conference Realignment

    The copies of the GOR I obtained from various internet sources are not fully executed, but I had assumed their text was final as that was the way they were represented. The 2013 GOR copy does have UNC's signature/date, so it seems unlikely that it was revised later. I think there may be some...

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    The article says he took undergrad coursework last year at Miami. This brings up a couple of questions: 1. We talk about some of our graduates with remaining eligibility transferring to another school for a master's we don't offer. But apparently, they don't have to do graduate-level classes...

    Special Teams Coordinator

    Those are really poor coverage stats, but I wonder how much is attributable to lower hang time on the shorter kicks? I don't think hang time is an available stat, but it would be interesting to see if that is a contributing factor. Otherwise, we need to rework the coverage personnel and/or...
