    On to Miami

    We can. But there are a number of posters who need to eat some serious crow first. (Not that I expect many of them to do so - lots of them will crawl back into a miserable spot, waiting for another opportunity to say “I told you so.” But still. Saying “Whoops…I must’ve made my Chicken Little...

    Thacker out at DC, now Safeties coach

    I also can’t speak to schematic changes (thanks for that), but agree wholeheartedly that a key difference-maker here seemed to be level of effort. Bear with me while I process some of my swirling thoughts below: Every win (or loss) is a chain of events. You break one link in the chain, and...

    TECH HOLDING AUDITIONS FOR NEW PA ANNOUNCER.

    Bowling Green Post Game... 😢

    Credit where credit is due. This thought ran through my head, but you kept pointing it out. The most Georgia Tech game ever. Well-played, sir.

    TECH HOLDING AUDITIONS FOR NEW PA ANNOUNCER.

    As far as candidates, my mind immediately goes to the 99X Morning X episode from about 25 years ago where Bob the Queen auditions to be the voice of the Atlanta Thrashers. Probably won't happen, but I would love to hear Bob rattling off the names of our roster (or trying to). :LOL:

    One year ago today, we were set free....

    Very sorry to bump this thread, but wasn't sure where to put this.

    First game with my daughter, looking for advice.

    Thanks for the feedback. It's always something to hear from fans who don't have specific ties to the school on how the experience is - glad to hear that it was a good one! Didn't even know there was a cheerleading clinic this weekend - but SO glad to hear your daughter got to take advantage of...

    First game with my daughter, looking for advice.

    Absolutely this. To the OP, sorry your and her first experience at Bobby Dodd was such a stinker. Hope you still had a blast going to the game together, and that you'll come back as times get better!

    First game with my daughter, looking for advice.

    Sounds great! My rec at the Varsity is the onion rings - best damn onion rings in the world, IMO. (But my guess is you've been there before, if you're in Atlanta). Block party sounds like a lot of fun - Yellow Jacket Alley is particularly cool being a young fan. Seeing the players up close...

    CFP Discussion

    Yeah. It was a lot of fun when CPJ was here. Hoping we'll see more land as Brent Key gets the program solidified. The person who originally started it handed it off to someone else, who now maintains it and posts it to Reddit r/CFB each week (with discussion). Fun thing to follow.

    Win Total Predictions

    I love King, and what he's been doing. He's definitely a gamer and a difference maker. But an interesting thing - I disagree with the second half of your statement. I think Zach Pyron is also a gamer, and we saw that last year in all the games in which he played and started. If he hadn't gone...

    Former GT Players

    Yeah - I think Haarberg is pretty darn good. He's a lot faster than he looks, and makes 10X smarter plays than Sims (which is a low bar, but still). He'll serve them well this year, and maybe next year, depending on who they recruit. I do think Sims' days starting at Nebraska are done. His ball...

    #GTvsWF MEDIA

    I also love the passion with which Key spoke those words (from my reading of them), at least to Chad Bishop (and I assume to the team). It's not about appealing to their minds. Telling them "You've got to step up to each game" is great and all, but if you just tell them that, it's not going to...

    #GTvsWF MEDIA

    I've always liked Dave Clawson, and this press conference just reinforces that. He's a good, solid, grounded coach who takes a reasonable approach to most things. Not flashy, not the type of coach that will get the snippet on College GameDay like Mike Leach or Mike Gundy - just a coach's coach...

    Posted this one to Reddit CFB. It needs to be talked about more.

    Haynes King Update: How Do We Feel About Him?

    Agreed, for the most part. While let me be clear in emphasizing that I'm not apologizing for the defense (because the fundamentals have indeed been crummy), I do think there's something to be said about losing the 4 best players on that side of the field over the course of the offseason. We knew...

    Game 3 #GTvsOM Media

    Glad to see them making these sorts of adjustments. Sticking with something/someone that's not working just because "it might someday" isn't gonna get us where we need to go.
