  1. Virginia postgame discussion

    $10 from 10. IPTAY showed that.
  2. Virginia postgame discussion

    I have sat on it and mulled things over for 24 hours. The defense is better than I thought it would be, the QB not as good as I hoped he would be early. The interior O line apparently is paper mache or is treated as such (Clemson and Va. crushed them up front) and because we get manhandled there...
  3. Virginia postgame discussion

    Now, as to the "approach to winning": Of course it is the coach. Always has been. As for Dodd's approach to recruiting, if you look back at Johnson's early years he said a couple of times he would always recruit inside-out, "I ain't gonna fly over a Georgia prospect to get one somewhere else."...
  4. It is time for a coaching change

    It might wreck the board for a day but probably the best thing for all of us would be to take a deep breath and cool off for 24 hours before anonymously raging on a message board. Having said that I am gonna do that.
  5. ProJackets Update

    I cracked up at the comment by the guy in Chiefs Chat that he had never even heard of Butker before the Chiefs.That's because he played college ball for a coach suffering from triskaphobia and wasn't going to add three to anything.
  6. Reporters ???

    Now see, I am still a skeptic. He ain't the worst coach in the country. That honor would go to the one coach from Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State that he actually beat while losing 25:meh:. So there.
  7. Just heard Tstan on 680

    Well, keep in mind that part of the job description of any good reporter is to ask impertinent questions. The subjects almost always survive somebody in the crowd who is not a hero worshipper.
  8. Reporters ???

    I have to ask: did Bradley, or anybody, actually do that? Because I wonder.
  9. Just heard Tstan on 680

    That the AD said it doesn't mean it's directed at the coach necessarily, right? Every AD at Tech since Johnson has said the same thing, right off the script, so what's the deal? Johnson himself has said acdemics is a recruiting tool and compares their targets with those at Navy. I do vaguely...
  10. Clemson not only wins, they whine

    I wish it had worked.
  11. Kirby Syndrome or Syracuse Envy?

    There were times I thought Clemson's threes were whipping our ones, and times I know their twos were beating our ones. They are very big and very fast and very quick, built to specs, according to Swinney, to compete for national championships. He thought they would have a third straight bite at...
  12. Kirby Syndrome or Syracuse Envy?

    That is on the money and not a soul on the board would disagree. (I think.) But a coach, any coach, doesn't forget how to do that over the winter. I am one of those who thinks luck plays a role no matter how you prepare against it. Some things cannot be explained otherwise. Which is to say that...
  13. Kirby Syndrome or Syracuse Envy?

    I like the way these QBs are being used and Watson particularly is effective. At the same time, though, I do wonder how long it will be before some humonguous linebacker tracking Watson across the field catches him cutting back and separates the top half from the bottom half. There is just a...
  14. Kirby Syndrome or Syracuse Envy?

    Mason seemed to adapt very quickly according to whatshisname.
  15. Kirby Syndrome or Syracuse Envy?

    The inquisitive part of my nature wonders why that is while the snarky part notes he wound up far from the confines of aeronautical engineering and went to law school...(Lawyers please note: I did admit to the snarky part now.)
  16. Kirby Syndrome or Syracuse Envy?

    This will get you nowhere. Have you not learned that message boards are where logic and common sense go to die?
  17. Kirby Syndrome or Syracuse Envy?

    Well, this is new. How do they know? They might sometimes guess based on the first movement of quick motion by an Aback, which is about a millisecond ahead of the snap. But that is a dangerous game to be playing. I am pretty sure that the snap count varies, not by much but it doesn't have to...
  18. Kirby Syndrome or Syracuse Envy?

    If Johnson renamed his backs to standard nomenclature as RB or FB, and talked more about route trees and power dive football, once in awhile ran in somebody he called a tight end, even in a WR slot, nobody would say a word. As for another offense, I think that was tried. I am not a Tech grad...
  19. Tech vs Clemson, it's actually very easy to explain

    I wouldn't argue with the last part at all. The league has "coached up" and the difference is telling.
  20. Tech vs Clemson, it's actually very easy to explain

    Because the other guy is better throwing breaking pitches off the plate than we are at hitting them. Sorry, wrong event. Same theory though. I wish we had done better. I wanted to do better. But that team lost Watson and is still three QBs deep with another one committed. They were winning...
