That's what everyone says. But damn...it's been 60 years since we left the SEC. All the antagonists in that feud are dead.

^This.

I hear you, but I don't think that's why J Batt was hired. I suspect he's working the phones behind closed doors.

I was thinking spouses, but yeah, mortgages...let's go with that!

Random Observations: Perhaps its just a historical relic, but the SEC's members include not one but two premier programs from several of the states that make up its geographic footprint - though not all. Florida, Georgia and South Carolina are exceptions, for example. Adding Clemson, FSU and...

And they opened their response with a quote designed to show how happy Clemson was with the agreement... ...from 2016. Is it possible that Clemson's sentiments have changed in the past eight years? I think so, too.

The funny thing about dudes in their basements shouting on the Internet is that they are, IMO, usually more knowledgeable, more passionate, more focused, more attentive, and better connected than dudes who merely pop in to post on a fan forum once in a while. And I'm in that latter group.

I understand. However, the other conference in the room, the Big 12, is considering how it can maintain its relevance in a world dominated by the Big 10 and the SEC. Poaching ACC members is probably better than promoting lesser schools. At some point, I can see the presidents just growing...

Yes. Being a big fish in a pond that is drying up is not healthy.

This Big12 dude is all about expanding the conference to compete with the Big10 and the SEC by picking off the Louisville, Virginia Tech and NC State. And no mention of Georgia Tech at all.

Clemson may have found the loophole they needed:

Two things I hate about March Madness. 1. Putting multiple teams from one conference in the same region. For example, this year, we have four ACC teams in two regions. Why? Why not put one each? Because everyone wants to see NC State play Duke again? Because seeing Carolina square off twice...

We're down to UNC, NCSU, Virginia and some Yankee school (not sure who let them in). Love it. This is old-school ACC. David Thompson. Monty Towe. Tommy Burleson. Ralph Sampson. Terrry Holland vs. Lefty Driesell. The Dean v. Jimmy V. I could go on, but I'm sailing with the pilot, and I don't...

With one season in the record books, what is your opinion of our head basketball coach?

True. But when someone who is not an obvious Tech homer says it, it suggests that the idea has some merit.

Okay, the title is kinda click-baity, but stick with me a minute or two. I can't help but feel more than a little pessimistic about the direction that college football is headed and the implications for Georgia Tech. My read is that the a few dozen big universities will dominate the landscape...

Did he just say..."elite"?

Dunno is this is really true, but I've heard it said that Tech's money men would rather have their name on the side of a research lab than an athletic facility.
