I just like the timing. Gives us plenty of time to get more coaches, recruits, etc. I have no issues whatsoever. Just another opportunity to get better.

Yes, I hate it when we beat ourselves. We didn't those last three games and the results were good!

Hadn't thought of it in terms of being coached up. Had thought more about just respect to the players for working so hard. But I guess it all ties in together....coaches recruit kids of a certain character and help to motivate them. In the end though IMO it's the kids who make the choice to get...

I don't even know how to begin to evaluate all this because I don't deal with this population. I do see that tranfers in general are on the rise. Don't know what to make of it.

:D

Stech81, I was one of those people who thought we were cooked in 2014 after UNC & Duke. I went on record saying this team just doesn't have it, etc. Massive 9-course Crow dinner for InsideLB in 2014! From that experience I learned not to doubt our guys' will to get better. I think too, one...

Good points about Coach West (thanks for the name Dustman) and A back receiving prowess. To complete a big play you have to catch the ball first. Only bad drop I recall was Stewart's one wide open drop. Beyond we seemed to catch the catchable balls. Justin had 4 bonafide weapons in Jeune, Lynch...

Well, despite some fonts getting absolutely irate any time anyone would say be patient, remember 2014, 2016's bunch did in fact get better. Not 2014 better, mind you, but closing out with wins on the road vs ranked VT, then UGA, plus handling business vs UVA showed definite improvement. IMO the...

Also got some bonafide big play type guys in Lynch, Searcy, & Marshall. I do believe some of it is seeing dividends from incrementally better skill position recruiting. Hate that Marshall left but if Mills can stop breaking rules I'm confident Benson can come in and fill the Marshall role...

Didn't CPJ bring in the new OL coach expressly to work on our pass protection? Seems like he recognized the current scheme was a problem with how defenses were attacking us and found a guy who could execute the changes. At the start of the year our tackles were giving him good reviews...

I'll buy this. The only thing is that we were not able to mount death marches consistently. One would expect having the more experienced guys who know who to block would also produce death marches. Maybe it's that the skill guys were much more consistent while the newer OL were hit-or-miss. On...

The bowl does basically mean another month's work for the coaches.

I'm wondering about all the big plays we hit. TOP was way down and big plays were way up. How do you explain it? I am wondering if after 2015, a season in which defenses got very aggressive with us and we couldn't make them pay, defenses elected to go with more this kind of aggressive...

Hats off to Rodwell. Went from cringing whenever he punted to feeling good about it in one season. With all the work these guys put in it's so nice to see it come together for him. I agree that some of his punts were huge contributions in W's down the stretch. Then there is the fake punt where...

Hope he got the job at Ga St.

While I hate to lose Marshall and Dorian Walker I do really appreciate that they are making their intentions known early so that we can plan our recruiting accordingly. It just fits in with what I know about the Marshall family: high character people. I don't know the logic behind the decision...

Jordan is ridiculously strong, and while his weight not be impressive when you look at him he looks like a big dude. I think he'll be just fine, in the mold of Nesbitt.

Heh, heh. Reminds me of the 2008 UGA game. I was the only Tech fan in a bar chock full of UGA folks. As the second half wore on and we proceeded to rip UGA a new one I got louder and louder and louder (I started drinking hard in the first half when it looked bad for us). Finally on Roddy's run...

My money is on Stewart getting the catching it inside the 10-yd line thing fixed. Remember, this is just his first year returning punts on this level. Overall I feel very good about having him back there. I also think the drop on the bomb is just part of doing business for a receiver. It's not...

Nice to see Rodwell improve as the year went on. He went from inconsistent to fairly reliable with some big boomers.
