Don't forget the one other bullet: - It's an FSU-GT game. Remembering the recent history in those games...well, anything can happen.

I agree with this. If it wasn’t so physically impossible to match old gold across different materials. But that being the case, I think things will always look better in Photoshop, for better or worse.

Before some of your time, but around the year 1990 there was this walk-on named Kevin Tisdel who asked Coach Ross if he could try returning kicks. (They often spelled his name “Tisdale,” but I believe the spelling above is correct). Dude ran all over the place. I can’t remember how many 30+...

Glad to hear this. It was actually a worry of mine - how many of these players have dealt with this sort of jet lag before? Especially going straight from the airport to practice. Hopefully they all followed the coaches’ & trainers’ advice on how to best prepare for and deal with it, so they...

My living room TV had something go out this week, and I don’t have wife approval to spend the money to replace it yet. So on the plus (and minus) side, I’ll be sitting at my kitchen counter with easy reach to the pantry full of snack food, and 2 steps away from the bar with everything I could...

Agreed. In the political world, if you say something enough times, the public starts to accept it. As long as it's got some link to reality, all it takes is time and consistency. First it starts with your own base, who are predisposed to agree - and then it extends to many in the other-leaning...

Nah, it was probably that Adidas didn't approve of that color. ;)

I dunno. I’d be fine with them being FSU coaches.

Just bringing this up to the top again, as I just rediscovered it when on the GT website looking for renderings of the Fanning Center. 1) I was interested to see the stands in front of the Fanning Center. I remembered some of the previous design renderings that seemed like it would simply be...

See, this is where things get fuzzy for me. If Florida or Arkansas suddenly has a killer year, beats Georgia and Alabama with a stellar record in conference play, it's seen as "the SEC is on the rise." But if Georgia Tech or NC State has a helluva year, beating Clemson and FSU and having a...

No it isn’t.

I’ll respectfully disagree here. As I said in the Reddit thread linked here, given the current circumstances I don’t think the ACC has any reason to settle. If they in any way back down from the position that the GOR is valid and enforceable, or allow someone to argue their way out of the...

Argh. This is what I hate about fall camp. Every year around this time of year… Heal fast, DJ!

Agreed with all of this. I may have mentioned it before, but those of you who are business and/or football geeks would do well to download and listen to the Acquired Podcast's episode on the NFL. It's a long history that gets into the genesis of competitive football in the U.S. being college...

Agreed with this and a lot of the other sentiment on here. I'm actually very impressed with them putting things together and making this happen. The campaign is smart. It's respectful. It recognizes the context ("We're new, so we're not going to come at this like we're God's gift to the...

Not only is he the highest-paid kicker - but (assuming all things are equal) he's making ~15% more than he would have had he pulled in an agent to negotiate this deal. Not too shabby.

Or be named "Miami" or "North Carolina."

Great points. Now pardon me while I go sit somewhere and try not to be *too* optimistic… 😁

That’s an awesome idea.

That's what I've been thinking from the beginning. FSU's approach to this whole thing has seemed fairly "We don't know what we're doing, but we're going to throw as much sh!t against the wall as we can to see what sticks. It hasn't seemed to be a very smart strategy, especially if they don't...
