    ACC Bowl Discussion

    I watched him play in the state semi finals last week against Buford. Carrolton won the game but I wasn't particularly impressed with him as a QB. They won the game at the line of scrimmage on both offense and defense, not because he showed amazing talent as either a passer or a runner. He...

    ACC Bowl Discussion

    Or it could vault us up in the rankings assuming they start the season ranked. The problem for teams like us is we don't get to start the season ranked in the top ten like the blue bloods making it harder to reach the CFP. We have to have signature wins to leapfrog teams in the rankings whereas...

    12/11 - WBB vs UL Monroe

    What I liked was the fact that we came out in a zone defense. The fact that Nell recognizes that this current collection of talent plays some better than man to man and she is not too stubborn to make the switch is refreshing. Earlier this season we had a tendency to give up too many easy...

    Singleton to Portal

    I think we already have his replacement in the recent commitment of Jordan Allen from Buford. If you haven't seen him play, do yourself a favor and look up his highlights. He is also a track star and is close to the same speed as Singleton with a bit bigger body but certainly in the same type of...

    12/7 - MBB @ North Carolina

    I think Lance feels like he needs to be more of a scorer with both Reeves and McCollum out and with George shooting so poorly of late. If and when those guys get back Lance won't have to put so much of the offensive load on his shoulders. If we had both of those guys in the lineup I'm pretty...

    NCAAF Coaching Carousel 24-25

    Some people age much differently. Just looking at the two of them I would never have guess Bill is just 8 months younger than Mack.

    When will teams realize Jimbo isn't the answer.

    Injuries

    That sucks. Tough to win games against good competition without two of your most potent scorers.

    GT Vollebees

    Who knows really if it will be a young team with the transfer portal. Obviously we will feature Wiley a lot next year. I could see her working the off season with a move to an outside hitter. We still have Mogridge back for another year who could play middle or outside. Both Velez and Mendes are...

    GT Vollebees

    If we had served better this match wouldn't have been close.

    12/3 MBB @ Oklahoma

    Just to clarify the women are now 7-0. Anyone who hasn't seen them play should check them out. They are a very good 3point shooting team and the Freshman Carnegie, who was the player of the year in Georgia last year, looks very good along with the point guard Wright. Both of them come off the...

    GT vs uGA uniforms

    I have to ask, do other schools worry as much about uniforms as some people on here do? Does anyone really think the players look at the GT on the helmet and say I don't think I can play as well with this color or that color? I read these uniform threads for comic relief because I can't believe...

    Good Ole-Fashioned Hate Preview

    Well if we know that, don't you think Buster knows it as well? I seriously doubt we play offensively the same way we did against NC State. As a matter of fact it would surprise me one bit if we played State very simple thinking we could beat them without having to show too much. Particularly...

    11/27 - MBB vs. Charleston Southern

    Reeves sat after landing on a player's foot and rolling his ankle. Didn't seem that bad at the time, he was walking around on it. But who knows how badly it might have swelled up after removing the ankle tape.

    King Injury Factual Updates

    Won't it be ACC refs? Unless they changed it, the norm has been to use the refs from the visiting team's conference.

    Nc State Postgame

    There are ribbons on the top of the Goal posts that show the direction and relative strength of the win thus negating the need for State's kicker to toss the ribbon in the air. You would think that being a kicker he would realize that. I would think those ribbons would be a better indicator than...

    Nc State Postgame

    I also noticed MacKenney played a lot as well. Someone had mentioned in a thread earlier this year that it was strange he hadn't played at all after playing so much last year. Good to see him back in there. But it made me wonder who he replaced on the line and why. Was there an injury that put...

    Nc State Postgame

    I would say yes if all we needed was a field goal to win the game like State did. Big difference between needing a touchdown vs. just a field goal.

    Nc State Postgame

    I do know this. The choice to score with that much time left instead of going down and bleeding the clock to kick a game winning field goal didn't work. I don't think playing scared works very often. Just like playing prevent defense. Another way of playing scared.
