    Finally, a non-profit GT collective: Introducing Jackets for ATLanthropy

    Don't forget the inevitable end result - Missouri and Georgia Tech will receive harsh penalties.

    I miss GTBob.

    While I'm not a CGC hater, I'm certainly not an apologist, either. I think no GT fan would say that the past few years have been fun to watch. Start with back to back to back 3-win seasons...add in Covid, inflation, crummy international events...and sometimes you just want to watch a good GT...

    What to watch this spring nationally

    Obligatory: https://www.ismiamiback.com/ :D (A darn good use of the internet, if you ask me. Even though I do agree with you - Cristobal has built a tremendous staff down there. We'll see what happens.)

    Potential Rule Changes

    I don't think we should penalize a team for their players getting injured - that just leads to bad downstream consequences. Love the idea that an injured player - whether they're really injured or flopping - has to sit out for the remainder of the series. Here's hoping we don't incentivize the...

    CGC on 680 this AM

    Hanlon's razor is, indeed, my favorite of all the razors.

    2022 Spring Football Practice

    So is Jeff Sims! Seriously, though. I'm excited to see how the O-line has grown in the offseason, and looking forward to getting into the new offense. Agreed with another poster that predictability/vanilla only works when your team has the size and athleticism to outperform other teams...

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    Deleted. Was in wrong thread. :)

    Should the Fire Geoff Collins thread be locked?

    While I agree that the discussion in that thread is circular at best, I understand the position of those who are contributing to it. The current head coach's results don't just speak for themselves - they're bad enough to warrant discussion. It's my thought that the thread will run its course...

    GT vs. Nebraska National Championship Game.

    Was a middle schooler at that time as well - found myself both in Orlando for the Citrus Bowl and in Knoxville, New Orleans, and Denver for the NCAA tournament that year. Had been a fan for longer, but man, that year stands out in my memories. Good times as a young fan.

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    Yep. Pickett (QB) and Blewitt (K) both carried on the long tradition of inappropriately-named Pitt football players.

    Disney and YouTubeTV in a spat

    I really hate it when they pull this BS. Disney is playing chicken, but they won't be the ones to turn off first. They know YouTubeTV users want their content, and it may take a mass exodus for YouTube to understand it. Still, I have a LOT of stuff saved on my YouTubeTV unlimited DVR, and would...

    Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego…um…er…Tashard Choice? (TX?)

    While I’m sad to lose CTC, I’ll go on record as saying this is the right move for him right now. Earlier this year I found myself thinking, “what will happen to Coach Choice when (inevitably) the music stops on the CGC era?” Of almost all the coaches on staff, he’s the one I’d want to see...

    #NDvsGT 55 to Zero

    I should add: Homer Rice made some big mistakes. Every person in a leadership position, bar none, will do that. The measure of a true leader is whether or not they correct those mistakes (and how). While I disagreed with moving away from CPJ’s coaching tree, I supported Collins from the...

    #NDvsGT 55 to Zero

    But he does also know that his job is on the line. Unlike a lot of others, I think Stansbury is more capable than the vast majority of our previous ADs since Rice. I think he’ll make the tough decision because he’s starting to see the writing on the wall for this coach…and this for his own role...

    Mostly “Fire Geoff Collins”, some reminiscing, maybe bourbon or other distractions

    (Bear with me, long-*** post.) Stepping aside and attempting to look at it objectively, this is a fascinating situation from a hiring strategy and budgeting sense. First off, I’m shocked at the lack of performance (as are most of us). All else aside, I expected at least some performance from...

    #NDvsGT 55 to Zero

    Shockingly (to some?), football depends on both Jimmy’s & Joe’s AND X’s & O’s. SMH.

    #NDvsGT 55 to Zero

    I would be amazed, if we hadn’t seen a similar sequence in at least 2 other games. My god, this is amazing.

    'Rique's Targeting Call

    I have a lot of dislike for the targeting rule - especially how gray the conditions were at first (luckily, they've fixed a bit of that - but it still has its non-black-and-white aspects). At the same time, I understand why it's there - and this instance seemed pretty clear-cut to me, as much as...

    Hire Geoff Collins

    I remember watching the Tennessee game a few years back - where we lost to Butch-freaking-Jones - and feeling relieved, even after the loss, because it was obvious after the game that we had found our QB, and were in a position where we could win if we would execute. I didn't know that before...
