Ok, now this is diabolic: When he was a prof at Stanford Carl Djarassi (the. director of the research that led to birth control pills) asked all of his students to come up with the most difficult question they could think of for their up-coming final exam. He said it was for purposes of making...

Ok, ok. I suppose I can see some changes. But … If they put in a new Jumbotron, then it had better show the game stats in one panel. It really irks me that a digital system can't update me on how the teams are doing. They show the game stats during halftime and then only briefly. This bothers...

Wider butts need wider seats. I've seen this coming for awhile. It's a Law of Nature!

Yes. There are people behind Height, particularly Cruz, who will prove just as effective, imho. I'm betting that Height saw the Edge players coming in and decided to leave while his NIL was still fairly hot. This also might prompt a move of Harping back to edge. Tech is full at TE, especially...

This thread has suddenly and gratifyingly become a very nuanced and well argued set of positions. Fun and informative to read for all newcomers.

Yes, and I think the assumption leaves out one of, if not the, most important factors in both recruiting and retention: the player's families. I think - and I admit I do not know - that many player's families are well aware of the chances that their sons will actually play in the NFL or star if...

I've been away when this happened on a short vacation. I don't blame Singleton for this. If I was as good a football player as he is under present rules, I'd do the same if onty to see if I could get Tech to finally come around. Fortunately, our WR room is well stocked already. Singleton going...

OMG! OMG! It's all the Hive's fault. You guys said it long enough to where even the Miami coaching staff could get the idea.

Yes and that kind of oil tanker can be pretty difficult to turn around. It can happen - shoot, it did with Tech football under TFG - still the odds are for the ACC to continue to be THE MBB conference. Of course, it would help if Tech stepped up, but that may take another year.

Well, I don't think Philo is going anywhere. This is largely due to the coaching he'll get at Tech. If I had a QB coach like Weinke, I would just look at the (maybe) bigger bucks and say, "No, thanks. I'm good." Especially when he must know that after King completes his eligibility (if he comes...

Yes. Paul would have done just about anything to have a guy like him at QB. He's Thomas reincarnate.

Yes. He should have just come up and let the ball go over his head into the end zone. "I'm sorry! I didn't see it!" This particular brand of Italian soccer is played all the time. Singleton's problem is that he's too honest.

He usually does that. Let's hope an out of conference team gets him.

Imho, the whole season turns on the three games in the middle: Clemson, Pitt, Syracuse. Win two of those - and we definitely could win all three, if King plays again - then we may be looking at 9 - 10 wins. I think 8 is more likely, largely because we'll be younger and there are teams on the...

This, not to put too fine a point on it, is why a lot of people have doubts about O'Brien. When you show up on campus and find your new team has a QB like Castellanos, you should a) immediately kneel and thank the Baby Jesus for smiling on you, then b) change your O to take advantage of his...

Says in the roster that he's a R-Jr. with a year of eligibility left. He's been one of Tech's most highly graded OLs this season and I think he's worth a fight. But I don't have anything that resembles a line on this; you could be right. Besides, it's Lockett that needs to one turned around.

Well, I saw it and it was obvious. The replay showed it too. But … this is now water under the bridge. I'm with Key on the possibilities he had on the road, however. As I sometimes yell at Grant (not Hyundai, Grant) Field: "It's our field and we call 'em our way!" Thus it has always been and...

I think Harris is a junior. Update: Nope, they're right and my depth chart is wrong. I see 247 has Lockett transferring out and Corey Robinson too. Tech should definitely try to convince them both otherwise. Perhaps Robinson thought that Makenny had beat him out and he should face it. I would...

Well, I expected this. As some above said, the timing wasn't there for Zach to get on the field as our set starter. But … he's a much better than average QB and will start somewhere when he transfers. I'll always look on him as a Tech man and root for him wherever he goes, unless he's playing...

Nooooooooo!!! Anybody but the Black Knights this year. Nobody but ND has even slowed them down. Update: This guy is way wrong on several counts. Boise State will be the MWC champ. Miami will get into the CFP due to Ohio State having three looses after the BIG10 championship game; they can't...
