I think if James hadn't gotten hurt he would have taken the job and succeeded in it, but we'll never know. And I think the decision to implement new offensive schemes whether it led to wins or not was made before the season started. And our offense was pretty fair country football in 2018. The...

We were warned - right here, btw - about this business of promising to pattern offenses to use inherited personnel then not doing so by many Temple alums when we hired him. Needless to say, not everybody up there was glad to see hie back; but a substantial number were. And, yes, that's...

This is soooo stupid. It's like blaming a QB for an INT on a tipped ball. The person who made the INT was the D player, usually on a great play. About the only thing you can blame a WR for in these stats is an INT that comes from a drop. This is like errors in baseball. The whole idea stems not...

And he did it right too! Most people let their hips come off the bench. Like my old high school coach (he was our OL/DL coach, but he believed in weight training even back in the early 60s) used to say, "Son, this is not a back exercise!" Camp is pretty awesome. I wouldn't be surprised if a pro...

No doubt this is true. However, Collins has a rep of trying to fit round pegs into squat holes until he can pound them into place or recruit square ones. Up at Temple he promised to form his offense to the personal available. He didn't. In short, I think this staff has a vision of what they...

He was in line to be WR #1 in 2019 when he got hurt. I think he would have had about the same number of receptions with either Paul or CDP (glad somebody came up with that; I never spell his name right) this year. But, yes, since the staff called his number, they get credit. It is too bad Camp...

The operative phrase in this is "not a lot". We should be doing everything mentioned in the post " a lot". We would be much more unpredictable and much harder to stop. But we probably won't since having Brown out there would make them work better. And he's gone.

I'm glad he decided he was ready to play again. Here's hoping he avoids his injury bugaboo and gets to show what he can do. He could be a real difference maker for Tech and I hope he is. Welcome back, Antonneus, and good luck from all of us.

Prescott is a perennial all pro QB. They said the same thing about him. I think any QB who wins - no matter how he plays - will get a chance in th pros. If I were Sims I'd be lobbying to run more so I could compete with the new breed.

Another thread led me to go look at the 2014 Orange Bowl again. And there it was. How should we use Sims this year? Like Dan Mullen used Dak Prescott. Short Mullen: pass when there's a good chance of completion and use your big stud QB as a running threat whenever you can. Sims and Prescott...

SACRILIGE!! You have not mentioned Old Virginia Gentlemen ($25 -35), probably the best straight Bourbon whiskey for it's price or George Dickel white label ($25 -35), probably the best Tennessee sipping whiskey on the market. And in the under $25 category, where in <the nether region> is Henry...

And losing all those seniors and Dennis Andrews. With Laskey in a redshirt year - and why, please, was Paul putting him back there to field punts as a frosh? - and Andrews, that team would have won 6 - 8 games, even with all the injuries. Ah, what could have been!

Those are, in fact, what I was referring to. My bad, I should have been more specific.

Having Zach meant we could move Cochran to guard. It's a chess game and now we need to reevaluate the pieces.

The reason I wrote the post is that I used to squat 400 regularly myself. (My personal best was 450, but I used 400 as my top squat weight in regular workouts. At a body weight of - ahem - 190, btw.) I know how dangerous a squat with heavy weights is. I also know that anyone who does squats...

Well, we'll miss him. I know a lot of people here thought that Kirby would take his job, but I never did. Still, I'm glad he got an offer he couldn't refuse. Those normally don't come around but once in your early 20s. Thanks, Zach! I always enjoyed watching you play. Good luck and I hope this...

Watch the film. The players are bouncing in a full squat in multiple frames. Like I said, this is dangerous at every age and state of physical condition.

I like the enthusiasm, but there were too many players bouncing around on their knees when in hyper extended positions. I don't care how much fun that is or whether it makes the players feel all special and everything; it's dangerous. At any age or state of physical conditioning. Period. Full...

Personally, I wish Stewart had had another year to play. He got open all the time and would have eaten up DBs in our present scheme. That's one of the could have beens though, right up there with how 2015 would have turned out if Laskey had been redshirted.

Btw, you left out Billy Martin and Ted Davis. They might have been the best pair of ends in Tech history.
