    Yes he did. I wasn't sure I heard it right either. He made several mistakes throughout the match calling people by the wrong names. It seemed he didn't do any homework for the match and was reading names based on a roster and for whatever reason he was calling our players names that were on the...

    BS High

    I haven't seen this posted anywhere else but have any of you seen the new Netflix documentary call BS High about this guy that made up a fake high school and recruited a team off the internet and somehow got ESPN to televise a game with them against IMG academy? Most of the kids weren't even...

    Tech vs. Louisville

    Louisville's lock down defense of last year was primarily due to a front four that was one of the national leaders in sacks. Most of those guys have moved on so hopefully that helps our cause. Even if they have restocked we have a mobile quarterback that might be able to mitigate some of that...

    2023-24 Season Countdown

    Point of order....do we as fans ever call ourselves the bees? I thought that was something for opposing fans.

    2023-2024 Ga. Tech WBB

    I have been to Lincoln and agree with everything you said about the fun downtown scene, campus, etc. That is pretty common for large state universities located in college towns that revolve around the school. Look at Clemson, Tuscaloosa, Gainesville, FL et al. But my point was about how that...

    I read an interesting tidbit about Ohio State's roster today. Apparently this year the scholarship limits return back to where they were pre Covid. Ohio State had brought in a number of recruits this year that would put them over the limit if they allowed all the returning seniors to come back...

    I think the team didn't practice again after the scrimmage. They had Sunday off and just did film on Monday I believe.

    Conference Realignment

    To start I would say recent national championships in both basketball and baseball. I also think they are pretty strong in several of the olympic sports. Plus I think they have a broader base of sports they participate in that Tech.

    What I saw this weekend is we have an excellent defense. Better blocking than last year with our increased height and everyone in the back half dives for everything. There were a number of points that looked like we were out of it and then Pimentel, Bertolino or Otene would make an amazing save...

    Perhaps they are honoring Demaryius by having our top player, in the eyes of the coaches, wear his number. Other schools to that as well to honor past players.

    2023-2024 Ga. Tech WBB

    Our volleyball team is proof that if you win the fans will show up. I think every game for the past 2 years and this year as well, have all been sellouts. Granted we play in a much smaller gym than that of Nebraska but still. We have another game scheduled for McCamish later in the year. If we...

    I'm sure Penn State will be out for blood after the hurt Florida put on them yesterday.

    I think this is the tallest team we have ever fielded. With D'Amico at setter and 6 feet tall every starter stands 6 feet or taller (with the exception of Pimentel at libero). The new middle blocker Mogridge is 6'4" and the other transfer middles are 6'3" and 6'1". Mendes the outside hitter from...

    Tech swept all three sets. After coming back in set 1 it was really all Jackets after that. Had a 14-0 run in the 3rd set. The new Brazilian outside hitter Mendes is REALLY good.

    Haynes King starting vs. UL

    He did at times....but not always. There were freshman moments. He's a very likable guy which may lead to some overlooking those tough moments. Which has led many to speculate that the decision to go with King may have been partly because of his experience.

    She is back in Russia. She turned pro.

    2023-2024 Ga. Tech WBB

    I tend to agree. It seems very odd that she would just up and leave in the middle of a European tour. Granted I don't have any idea what occurred here but if I had to guess I think it may have been her seeing that younger players were getting minutes that she had hoped or thought would be hers...

    Pastner v bell

    That's good that she got some time although I'm not sure why she didn't get as much time as Bell. They both participated in the same scam. If anything she should get more time. It's women like her that make it harder for women that are actually raped.

    2023-2024 ROSTER???

    Pretty good except I would swap Claude and Gapare. And maybe slide Murphy down to SF.

    I guess the talent hasn't totally disappeared from the team. Between the returning starters, the incoming freshmen and the transfers we would appear to have quite a bit of talent. Plus I really believe we have a coaching staff that improves that talent. It looks like we may have more depth than...
