    2024 Season

    You lost me with that one. We rarely have problems hitting against anyone. We often are able to knock a team's #1 starter out by the third inning. Now if you said something about an unknown position player hitting three homers and knocking in 8 RBI's in his first ever start then I could agree...

    My 2024 Lineup Projections

    King has stated his preference as a set up man out of the bullpen so I think that is where we will see him at the beginning of the season anyway. Can't wait for the season to start.

    Handshake Line

    So why didn't all of the players on their team run off?

    Ndongo

    First of all we don't know it was a concussion. His head got some contact but he also had his neck stretched in a weird fashion. It could have been a neck stinger or muscle strain as opposed to concussion. I have a son who played fullback in high school and college which is a position much like...

    Handshake Line

    Did anyone else notice the lack of class from the UNC players (most of them anyway). As soon as the game was over they ran straight for the locker room and didn't shake hands. The only people that did were the UNC coaches and 2 or 3 end of the bench players. The rest of them just bolted. I know...

    GT-UNC IS OFFICIALLY A WHITEOUT

    I just read your post and my two cents on your question is maybe it had to do with who was guarding both Nail and Kyle. Perhaps coach felt that Kyle had a better matchup so he ran point. Not sure if that's truly the reason but you can't argue with the results.

    CDH Approach to the Portal

    Ranking transfer classes before they play a single game is much like ranking teams. It's just a guess based on past performance. A poster on one of the baseball threads said it best, last year's performance (which most of these rankings are based on) has nothing to do with this year's teams...

    1/25 - WBB vs VT

    Dunn being off and Blackshear going down early really gave us little chance.

    CDH Approach to the Portal

    The AJC article is just a reposting of the comments CDH made in his press conference today before the scrimmage.If you watch it you don't have to guess at what he means. He was pretty clear that there are some schools out there with deep pocketed collectives that are able to buy most of the top...

    We need a second option

    Not sure what to say in response other than having watched all the games from previous years and this year, it seems obvious to my eye he is playing harder on defense than ever before. I think his rebounding numbers overall reflect that. This year he seems to be playing much tighter D on his man...

    CDS Pushing Through Ups and Downs

    I think he gets his minutes from a combination of Kelly/Coleman/Sturdivant. CDS has already said a number of times that he felt Terry was his best outside shooter and defender from the returning players. By best outside shooter I took that as most consistent. I don't think Coleman leaves. His...

    We need a second option

    I'm surprised to read your last comment. Kelly is playing the best defense of his entire tenure at Tech IMO.

    Selective enforcement once again: NCAA strikes again

    When the list of the top transfer destinations for the top rated portal talent doesn't include the same 5 schools then I will believe the days of the rich getting richer will be over. King turned out to be a great get for us but be honest. None of the football factories were fighting for him...

    Article WBB - GT Snags 4 of States Top Seniors

    Then she can stand her ground and not get pushed out of the way and use her height more to her advantage. Also, I'm sure you know, that in addition to gaining weights will also gain strength. She will also have an additional year of agility training to help her with foot movement. She shows...

    Article WBB - GT Snags 4 of States Top Seniors

    With our current lineup hopefully Termis continues to get some play. With her hitting 3's like she is that is going to force other teams to get out on her. The question is whether they will do that with a guard or will they have their big come out on her. If they use a guard I hope we have...

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Heck he should have his masters and PHD by now.

    1/16 - MBB vs. Clemson

    I think the zone late was as much about keeping Kelly in the game as anything else. Once he got 4 fouls I think CDS realized that Clemson would isolate him and try to get the 5th foul on Kelly and we really needed him to stay in the game for his offense especially once Ndongo fouled out. That is...

    1/16 - MBB vs. Clemson

    Thank God I live in the mountain time zone now. I DVR all of our games. I have this personal rule that if I am unable to watch the game from the beginning, I wait until the game is over, turn off all notifications on my phone and watch it as if it is live after the game has finished. So last...
