I agree that our chances are not good. Given our performance last night and efforts to improve, we should win against UVA and VT. Puke is about 40-60 imho. I watched some of their game with UVA and it looked like they had all been bitten by radioactive spiders; they knocked UVA's socks off. As...

You know, something like that was a 15 yard penalty in my day. If you tried to help a runner by pushing him forward, you got flagged. I still feel uncertain about doing this; the rule is still on the books (I think) and sooner or later you can get a little overboard with it.

I watcher Duggins dismantle Oklahoma and Martinez kill off Texas Tech single-handed. Im just fine with Sims running more; I've been calling for tai since the UNC game. He isn't hard nosed yet, bu8t you can coach that up. If we ran more double options, QB sweeps, and QB counters the O would work...

Well, I'll say the inevitable: they gave us the ball game. And the second part of the inevitable that often isn't mentioned: when they did we took it. That's what matters. Is there a lot to fix? Lord above in heaven, yes. We staggered at times on O and the D is still porous against long balls...

I'd go with Bohannon because he knows how to develop a program, he knows how to run the spread option, and he knows how to win. Yes, this would mean "an historic transition", but my guess that we would keep most of the players. And we have a BB already: Smith. But … there are too many people...

This is one reason why I think Neville may end up as the next AD. I'm sure he doesn't want the job and I'm also sure that we won't find someone better at it then he will be. Most ADs don't think strategically; they are very driven by what the Big Donors™ want and what will get wins at once. This...

I like their list with the exception of Mendenhall. If we are going to ask someone to come out of retirement, we should ask Paul to do a Bill Synder and rescue us. You never know; he might do it, with the right guarantees. But, yes, go after Chadwell first. And see if Clawson is interested...

To you and all others saying this, I have one reply: small sample size. It could be that Ugag has gotten "out of reach" for Tech. I'll believe it when I see it. And, if I do, then we need to quit playing them, except in the playoffs. Now, I'll tell you that I think that with the right coaching...

How about the drugs? Com'on 'fess up!

I hope it isn't Deion. I don't think he'd succeed. His coaching experience is too limited and at the wrong level too boot. Further, I don't think the Hill would prove as flexible as he would need to make it work. But I'm pretty sure he knows that. And that the GTAA does too.

Shoot, I might as well submit my resume too. Thamel's list is way too long. I'm betting on the Tech grads.

I liked it and I didn't like it. Likes: Sober analysis of what "winning" means at Tech. I'd be quite content with 7 - 9 wins consistently every year. Problem = so would almost every other football program in the country. We've been spoiled, badly. This is what winning means. So is winning the...

1. We've done this once - in 2007 - in the last 30 years. Oth, we've had 4 4 stars at least twice - 2010 and 2020 - in the last 10 years. (Again, these are 247 ratings.) It's feasible to expect we might be able to do that consistently with the right coaches. That'd put us right about where VT is...

Sounds a lot like … oh, what was his name? It's on the top of my tongue! He was at Tech, I remember that! And he's right. McCall, as reminded everybody was a 2 star in high school. Horrors.

I bet this is especially the case in STEM schools. The Feds won't pay for all that equipment. As for suggestions, I got nothin'. Yet.

Thank you, Jesus. We always had one. It's good to finally see it.

One might also add that McCall was a 2 star in high school. Sorta like Clinton Lynch.

247 lists 32 5 star players available for 2024. No doubt we'll offer the 3 from Georgia, but I wouldn't give us very good chances for any of them. There are a lot more 4 star players (over 300) and that explains why we get some of them. And, yes, the new stuff could work for us to some extent...

I've heard loads of "toxic" comments in the stands at Tech and for a long while to boot. As pointed out above, this is usually tied to losing. To Ugag and Puke especially. This, I understand; I'd rather eat SPAM then lose to those people. Oth, I'm pretty sure that this is the rule for most...

Yes, and as the parade of successful players listed shows, that is too bad. It also shows an attitude that you wouldn't expect from alums who were taught to look at the evidence first. Bohannon's record says different. But … after all, this is a game. I like Chadwell for our next up. We'll see.
