  1. Conference Realignment

    Saw one of the alignment talking heads say the two most desirable schools for the acquirer's are UNC and ND, think I have to believe that also. Next tier IMO would be GT and Miami for the BIG, not sure for the SEC. It seems to me that VT and NC State are more desirable to the SEC than either...

    I did not frame my question very well, glad you pointed out all of his attributes, some I was already aware of, but is he not also co defensive coordinator and maybe could bring something to the table from the aspect of best utilizing the personnel we have on defense so they are the most...

    Does Kevin Sherrer bring anything to the defense beyond being a good LB coach?
  4. 2023 Fall Practice Notes

    I'm sure he is aware, but I expect he is so dialed in, focused on his first ever FB team and all he is responsible for and that it is his dream that he has to make a success of that he doesn't dare take his eyes off of the load he is carrying and the responsibility, I would be if I were in his...
  5. Conference Realignment

    It's a shame that a bunch of schools cannot get together that are located in great media mkts, such as Stanford, Cal, ASU, SMU, TCU, ND, Miami, S FL, GT, UNC, MD and have their own media somehow. Appears to me that could be a gold mine, just don't know how it gets done. Need a real entrepreneur...
  6. Conference Realignment

    Do we end up with a CFB National Conference with 50 schools give or take that is stand alone and the Olympic sports get their own regional conferences. I believe GT is now set to fund all athletic scollies from the school rather than the GTAA, (which would allow separation of FB from the others...
  7. Conference Realignment

    Yes, and also if GT is in the National CFB Conference with those other schools then all the schools are more likely to recruit kids from all over the country, the key being it is "THE" CFB conference. I could see us picking up kids in CAL, ILL, etc but still having a heavy concentration in GA...
  8. Conference Realignment

    Winning has always brought butts and eyeballs, and losing just the opposite and I happen to think there has been another significant thing going on and that is CFB to fan TV over saturation. I'm more and more about just let me know the scores of teams I'm not following where I used to watch...
  9. Conference Realignment

    I think it's possible the SEC could want NC State, and VT, notice I said possible. I have a friend who is a VT grad and keeps a real close ear to what goes on there for many years and he said the SEC approached VT about joining the SEC not too long after VT had become ACC members and if you...
  10. FAN DAY SET FOR AUGUST 5

    So the team did not practice today?
  11. Conference Realignment

    If in fact we are heading to a National CFB Conference and it does actually happen which I'm inclined to believe it will, are we missing something in the stature and place CFB will then have in our society? For instance looking at our own GT, does it become Atlanta's college team representing...

    jacketup I agree with you that we were always going to have to pay a big time price if we decided to come out of playing academy style FB. Everyone who has ever made that decision has paid the price. In GT's case it was a higher price because of our commitment to seeing that our student athletes...
  13. Conference Realignment

    I think there is a plan, there is just not an announced formal plan. Think the end result will be a CFB National conference covering the entire USA and probably the BIG will be the survivor National CFB conference. This whole movement IMO is being driven by the media, they have the "bucks" that...
  14. Conference Realignment

    Agree with you about the full on stupid part, but because of losing their AAU status they may not have a choice in the matter. Time will tell. Somewhere back seems like I read that they were given some time to make whatever change would be needed in order to gain membership again, but so far it...
  15. Conference Realignment

    You need to go to YouTube and listen to what the Ohio State President says about the BIG 10 requirement for schools to be an AAU member in order to be a member of the Big 10, she absolutely contradicts what you are saying, think I would listen to her before I would listen to you or Brett...
  16. Conference Realignment

    Clemson and FSU as it stands now will not become BIG 10 members, they are not AAU schools, I'm guessing those two end up in SEC.
  17. Conference Realignment

    I'm guessing ASU goes to the BIG. Saw something where Stanford has hinted that they want to stay independent which I find interesting along with maybe ND and some others staying independent. It seems Nebraska fans would like to go back to Big 12 now that TX is gone, if that happens, ASU to BIG...
  18. Conference Realignment

    So are you saying they can go to another conference if they so decide? I thought they were required to join the ACC if they decide to join a conference. They are restricted from movement to another conference. That indicates to me they could have a case that they should have a say because they...
  19. Conference Realignment

    According to an Ohio State grad who was on here recently and posted, GT has been vetted by the BIG and meets all the criteria for BIG membership. There are other schools that also have been vetted and meet the criteria. He did not name any of them except some of the PAC 12 schools seems like he...
