  1. Another unSmart coach at work

    No problem with it except an "official" release and your blaming journalists for doing their job. I wish those in my local paper would do their's, for instance.
  2. Another unSmart coach at work

    I think you are having a bad morning. The last thing you want is to have those in charge -- coaches, mayors, presidents -- telling reporters what and when they can report and releasing the information "publicly". (I would sure like to know, for instance, who has access and thus influence in the...
  3. Another unSmart coach at work

    The issue wasn't Smart telling a reporter first. The reporters in question are at the practice and see the injury. He wants to control their reporting of what they witness. Besides, if he is really concerned about that then maybe he could call the parents. I wonder if he is concerned about it or...
  4. Another unSmart coach at work

    Good question. I hope somebody can answer it because I never thought of it.
  5. Another unSmart coach at work

    Ah, nuts. I still can't make the paste function work but: the story concerns a decision by Georgia's coach to require reporters to clear certain injury or practice stories through him. How he would do this baffles me, as any reporter agreeing to that needs to be doing a hapless on-line blog...
  6. Most iconic play

    leave it to Tech to go to a cow college and destroy their forage.
  7. Most iconic play

    My god. If that is the market chart we are all busted.
  8. Most iconic play

    Every play listed. But in my mind nothing, ever, was or will be as dramatic, as glorious, or as euphoric as Butker's 53-yarder against Georgia. Not in the history of GT football. Nothing. Ever. Dare I say I still get hot flashes thinking about it?
  9. What are looking for, in the coming season?

    Tackles for loss.
  10. Overrated/Underrated Fan Cliche

    Maybe it is time to acknowledge that in this day of high powered, high scoring offenses that can romp up and down the field seemingly at will, TOP is no longer a valid measure or predictor. We can begin to see it when the good guys would run six or seven minutes off the clock to score, then...
  11. Tennessee fans already starting to talk about the 2017 GT-Tennessee game

    What was Lily Tomlin's line as Earnestine the telephone operator when things were not as they seemed to her? ? "Oh, never mind."
  12. Ohio state spring game

    trying to figure what goofy Holtz can offer Meyer. Maybe tell him how really, really, really great he is and how really, really, really great all his assistants are. That's what he did best.
  13. Changes to CFB recruiting rules

    I did not explain myself well. What I was trying to get at was that any kid who might be committed to Sante Fe Polyurethane U. for instance, but did not sign, then would have opened up the recruiting all over again. I can see that happening with recruits all over the country as universities look...
  14. Changes to CFB recruiting rules

    Why exactly? What I see is that now there will be two signing periods and the accompanying angst and recruiting and counter recruiting, and that those "committed" to a program may wait until the second period to actually sign, leading to even more pirating of committed players. What is the...
  15. Tennessee fans already starting to talk about the 2017 GT-Tennessee game

    My inclination -- with the length of this thread -- was to give it up and move on to something else, anything else. But the more I think about it the better it looks. This once was such a historic college matchup -- Saturday afternoon score roundups of Deep South powers -- and this one has such...
  16. Tennessee fans already starting to talk about the 2017 GT-Tennessee game

    It seems fair to say every opponent has been afraid of the matchup, both because of the offense and the speed at which it is run. Them big ol' SEC teams like to sit back on D fence and figure things out before committing. That's how they get the reputation for being so fast: nobody ever seems...
  17. BREAKING: NCAA says state of North Carolina will again be considered for championship hosting....

    Hmm. Wonder if I could guess who the good guys are in your scheme?
  18. BREAKING: NCAA says state of North Carolina will again be considered for championship hosting....

    Liberal, yes. Fundamentalist by any definition, no. And your question referred to my omission of the word "flat" as you indeed inferred.
  19. BREAKING: NCAA says state of North Carolina will again be considered for championship hosting....

    Okay. Your last paragraph pretty much explains your creationism. (Just picking at you.) And though ranging far afield from smash mouth, and not to prolong it, but would you extend "liberal fundamentalism" to rejection of earth advocates -- not that many left, more's the pity -- or the 6,000...
