    J Batt interviewing for USC(e) AD job

    Moving from a mid-tier ACC school to a mid-tier SEC school is a step up for a career-minded individual. The SEC will have a chair when the music stops. The ACC's future is far less certain.

    J Batt interviewing for USC(e) AD job

    https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Journal/Issues/2021/06/28/Forty-Under-40/Batt.aspx In this 2021 interview, J Batt referenced Bear Bryant’s famous line in 1958 about taking the Crimson Tide job — “Momma called. And when Momma calls, you just have to come running.” (Randy asks: We quote...

    J Batt interviewing for USC(e) AD job

    CBK is a Tech grad, and he bleeds white & gold. IMO, he has his dream job and will stay at Tech for 30 years if the fanbase wants him to. ADJB, not so much. He has no particular allegiance to Tech and will, IMO, jump at the chance for A) a seat at the grown-ups table (the SEC) or B) the AD job...

    Athletics Update from Cabrera

    Nice letter. He understands the value of branding. When a school does well athletically, applications for the freshman class go up. Everyone hears about - and wants to be part of - a winning program.

    Mack Brown Fired

    Back in the day (70's-80's), we offered easy courses colloquially known as Shocks, Rocks, Socks and Crocks for Jocks. Anyone care to identify which engineering schools offered these courses and what the subject matter was? And BTW, while I disagree with what UNC did in principle, I've never...

    Mack Brown Fired

    My take is that Mack Brown is a good guy whose best days (and the sport itself) have passed him by. If he had won a Natty, he would be up there with Dean & Roy, but as it is, I think Carolina fans will be ambivalent about him in the years to come. Carolina football is a sleeping giant, IMO. If...

    2024 non-GT games thread

    If I were a major contributor at UNC, I would insist on firing the entire coaching staff after the NC State game. That can't be much worse than what they have going now.

    2024 non-GT games thread

    UGA is 8-0 against the ACC during that same stretch. The ACC is not on par with the SEC or the B1G.

    Nc State Postgame

    After reading this entire thread, I have a couple three items. 1. What is the deal with our running backs? I haven't paid close enough attention, but in this game Philo had 57 of our 119...119...total rushing yards. Doesn't say much for the RB room. 2. Concerning BDS attendance numbers, it...

    Bobby Dodd Renovation in the NE Stands

    So, following the Tech tradition which began when we built right over top of the east stands, we're building right over the old Edge. Perfect.

    AI in the Coaches' Booth

    Given that the offense has a slight advantage over the defense (because the team with the ball knows where the ball is going in advance), I asked Chat GPT if it is possible for AI to analyze a vast number of offensive plays (like thousands or millions), to learn from the outcome, and to develop...

    Bobby Dodd Renovation in the NE Stands

    How about throwing in some random colored seats like red, orange, and blue to match our season ticket holders who sell their seats to the opposing team's fans?

    NC State Preview

    Is there a team that doesn't struggle against slippery elusive QB's? But I get your point and agree. :)
