I wasn't able to watch the game, but it sounded on radio like Pyron did ok for a frosh in his first extended time. I mean, you can't ask for miracles when your QB isn't getting much time to throw. I expect he'll get more work, even after Sims recovers.

Glad someone else said it first. On this I would refer interested readers to Matthew 6: 15 - 20.

Yes, This is another (the second today!) in a series of simple answers to simple questions.

Yet they are losing the game.

Except when you play them and, like, win. The pros are after players and they don't have a set formula for them. Who, for instance, would have cast Aaron Donald at 6'1", 280 as a perennial all-pro DT? Well, that would be the people who saw him play in college, of course, and the Rams. It...

Should have given Juvenal a shout out.

This is so vague it could be about a mausoleum for Bobby Dodd as well as a new head coach. I think we'd be advised to discount this kind of thing (who knows at this stage what Batt's ideas are about what would excite Tech fans?) and await events. I mean, he has to do something soon to start his...

And the reason this works is that WF has recruited a bunch of mid 3 star wrecking balls at RB. My favorite: Remind you of anybody? Yeah, we used to have players like that. His little brother Tate is a frosh this year. Watch that name. I think Wake's success is based on three things: 1. A...

1. I agree that the OL that Collins inherited was not recruited for his idea of what an OL should do. This does not mean that they were complete stiffs; most of the performance issues in 2019 were due to not being able to put the same 5 on the field for more then a game or two. But … they...

This game reminded me of some of Dodd's games when the O was misfiring with UVA posing as Tech. It was old fashioned "field position and play D football". Why did Tech lose the game and UVA win? Neither team had great field position in the game consistently, but Tech got pinned on our end way...

What we need and in the worst way is a coach who knows what kind of QB he wants. And that means a coach who has O plans for the QBs he gets. You don't need 4 star talent; what you need is a scheme that you can recruit for. That's why Paul's teams always outperformed their "star rating". It's why...

He'd be an instant winner. For two years.

How I wish the US had a systematic program for this. But we don't. Something like the Germans use would be a great addition to our educational system. The CCs are a start, but not comprehensive enough, imho.

1. Yes. Costs are way out of line, lar4gely due to the enormous expansion of administrative staff and the salaries paid them. Faculty salaries - minus adjuncts, mind - are stagnant in real terms. Also, schools have to lay on a lot of unnecessary stuff - like, say, inter collegiate athletics - to...

Yes. So why didn't the staff get Gibson up for that? He isn't quick, but you don't have to be Usain Bolt to run QB sweep. He looks tough enough to make that work. Then he's just a double option away from making the O move.

What gets me here is that when you have a backup QB who hasn't played much, the solution is easy: you put in a heap of plays where he can run the ball. Ok, Gibson isn't all that quick. But you could see that he's tough. I would have QB swept and double optioned them to death tonight or at least...

You might want to check out The Siege of Firebase Gloria. Lee Eremy stars as a staff sergeant who takes over defense of the base. The NVA spots him at once and tries to kill him throughout. Ermey wrote his own dialogue for the movie and, while it never got great play, it is one of the only...
