The first guy was introduced as OL Pierce Quick.

I’m going to make a 40,000-foot observation rather than dive into details. I view all boards covering topics of interest to the GT fanbase as performing a service to our fan community. They enhance the fan experience by providing both an outlet for discussion and exchange of information. I have...

I haven't seen actual evidence that Scout changed Calvin's ratings but it's certainly plausible. The services routinely "bump" a player's rating upon a commitment (or perhaps even just an offer) from a "power" school, even though they have not re-evaluated the player. However, the usual...

There's a concept called Blue-Chip Ratio that pertains to the % of a team's players that are 4* or 5*. 247 has been doing analyses of this for championship-level teams over several years. Here's the most recent article...

If you break a rule, even unintentionally, accept the warning and move on. We have posters that apparently understand the rules but choose to pollute multiple threads whining about them like a four-year-old who had his hand slapped for taking too many cookies from the cookie jar. Often same...

Just wondering - if this scenario is correct, then perhaps Batt also wants to delay in order to keep the existing staff on the recruiting trail as long as practical. Maybe unethical if he's already decided not to keep Key, but I've seen worse.

Also shocking is that they've recruited 23 5-stars in recent years if you include the 2018 class.

It seems you missed MountainBuzzMan's larger point. He wasn't saying that we can't overcome the hurdles and should settle for a .500 record. I think he was suggesting that we need to take a longer-term approach that doesn't just focus on a traditional scheme.

Since this thread is about recruiting impact and your posts minimized it as a difference-maker in UGA’s recent improvement, I feel it’s worthwhile to look deeper since we have actual data to support the discussion. Previous posters have given us the Rivals average recruiting rankings for Richt...

The optimist in me is hoping that UNC's DL is not good at the pass rush, which could help Gibson a lot. I know that their scoring D rank has to be bad, but I don't know if that is due to an across-the-board weakness or just a few key positions. I agree that Gibson has shown a decent arm and...

Perhaps you could start a thread for posters who have had their feelings hurt.

A heavy run-based offense has two advantages in this game - it could cover up some of the weaknesses in our passing game, and it runs clock to limit UNC possessions. Of course, we can call mostly run plays and still end up with a score like 2014 (lost 43-48 in a game where neither team's...

Apologies for extending this tangent, but wanted to take the opportunity to say that in my opinion, this board strikes a good balance in terms of setting the guardrails the right distance away from the road. Further, if you don't like the rules, don't agree to them and then ignore them - instead...

Injury?

Just to add - taking exceptions is an area where Cabrera might be able to have some influence. I heard that the number we take has tended to change depending on the mood of the administration.

A few years ago there was an article citing comparisons between a school's football teams' ave SAT and that of the school's general student population. They also compared ave SAT across schools. Tech led in both categories - ave SAT of the team, and the greatest disparity between the team's...

I suppose there's an argument to be made that winning the ACC over FSU (and we came close) that year would have gotten us close to consideration as ACC champs. We would have had a pretty good resume with wins over some highly-ranked teams including the prior year's national champs. I agree...

Not to mention that beating UGA, which Gailey never did, buys a GT coach a lot of goodwill.

Which is what’s wrong – easily offended people, or breaking the rules that you signed up to? Please clarify.

I'm late to the party, but that's gotta be the best post I've read all day.
