  1. 2018 is the door unlocked?

    http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/24142400/coaches-their-everlasting-quest-coach-turnovers Turnovers are based on luck and 86% of turnovers are by the team losing. Also some good stats on turnovers on 3rd and long - run the damn ball. Maybe this year will be our year. I agree...
  2. What was the first GT and Non-GT football game that you attended?

    My first GT game as well. I believe it made Gt 9-0 in 66? I think my first non-Gt was falcons 78 Mazetti 5 field goals to beat LA Rams on Monday night.
  3. Why Dodd why?

    BD was a great coach but a poor AD. He mainly played tennis during his AD. He was a football coach and not a business man.
  4. Gt schedule 2018

    That 08 team had some talent. Dwyer, Jones, Bay Bay, MJohnson, Burnett and there were some other great players in Griffin, Jackson, Cooper. Miss that kind of talent.
  5. AJ Gray and Jake Stickler medical redshirts

    One player does not make a team but AJ Grey was probably the most talented player at his position. Last year he would have been second, behind Mills. It sucks!!! But we will get a break some day. Sorry for him as well but seems to have a good head on his shoulder.

  7. Spring Practice

    I am hoping some new players appear. We need some surprise stars in the front seven on defense and a few other surprises elsewhere would be good ie otackle.
  8. Roof Out as DC

    Ted is a good guy however I have never liked his schemes or his defenses. They weren't good under two stints. I hated the nickel all the time with an undersized defensive line (maybe not his fault) matched up with an undersized nickel. We didn't ever have 7 runstoppers in the box. I think...
  9. Roof Out as DC

    he Johnson under pressure? I take this as exactly the opposite. It validates that Stanbury will do what CPJ wants. CPJ probably could care less if he were under pressure. He probably will retire in 3 years. He could be hiring our next head coach with this DC job..
  10. Roof

    Johnson's very tricky response could mean one of 3 things: 1. He's staying but God is it fun to mess with your beat reporter mind. 2. He's as good as gone but I think I'll mess with Ken's mind for a couple of weeks just for the fun of it. 3. He's hanging in the torture chamber and it's just a...
  11. CPJ needs to be fired

    This may be somewhere else so I apologize but is the deal if he were fired now, he is owed $6MM and after next year $2MM? And that is because the buyout goes from $2MM to $1MM per year and his contract goes through 2020?

    Maybe I don't - but I know how many points you get for a 3 point shot in basketball
  13. Roof

    Roof has got to go. Good man and tried his best but he has to go. What would you do if you were CPJ? Changes have to be made and other changes may be done but this one is a no brainer. The defense has had the advantage of GT limiting possessions for the other team but for the most part is...
  14. 2018 Off Season Thread

    I really think we had some leadership issues this year among the players. Last year Gamble and Thomas were leaders who kept us going even when we were down. This year's team lacked that somebody. I don't mean to be mean but loss of some of the secondary guys may be addition by subtraction...
  15. In this thread: I face facts about Ted Roof

    I am not a Roof hater. However I do have some problems with playing nickel all the time with an undersized nickel. I think a 4-3 at times is the way to go but I understand he has problems at LB. I also generally don't like pinching ends. Pinching ends seem to often end up with lack of...
  16. State of program

    I really like CPJ but am also concerned about staleness of the program. AD's don't make coaching decisions based on wins/losses or how good/bad they think the coach is. They make coaching decisions based on interest in the program. Right now there is a lot of apathy. If the AD believes the...
  17. Virginia Tech postgame discussion

    That push off was so obvious they had to call it - somebody wasn't looking
  18. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    I thought at the time it was a bad call but I do see his logic of trying to take advantage of press coverage with his senior against our freshman. I just felt however that VT had the momentum, QB had not been accurate enough to count on his ability to hit a bomb and they had got back to rushing...
  19. passing more on first down

    The way UVA was playing, and I believe Clemson and Wake as well, was selling out to stop the outside pitch and controlling the middle with 3 guys. CPJ said that yesterday. Not disagreeing on 1st down pass just saying it's been available and so has the inside. We just aren't doing it. Maybe...
  20. Virginia postgame press conference

    Summary This team has lost some tough games The special teams have really hurt us - that has to be the worst pooch kick of all time - it wasn't even an onside - it was suppose to be a pooch for god sakes Coach thought we should have been able to run up the middle but we couldn't, explains some...
