Athlon compiles anonymous quotes from ACC coaches about other teams. Keep in mind that "coach" is a pretty broad term and Athlon can decide which comments to include to paint certain pictures. Still interesting though...

Activities like this during fall camp are called "enrichment activities" or something like that and they're paid for by Georgia Tech's football budget. They're permissible by the NCAA, I'm assuming up to a certain number of events.

Welcome back, #4! The biggest thing about GT for me was breaking out of high school habits and learning how to study. Through this process Graham seems to have figured that out, so now he's probably go to go for the remainder of his time. Let's start the Heisman campaign! Anyone remember Jabari...

Yeah, that's Tori McElhaney. I was about to comment about how direct and articulate she is with her questions. Some of those guys kind of mumble their way through a question. And then Ken Sugiura always used to be so timid around CPJ; I hope he's better with CGC. Tori's confidence has been...

That is the knock on Chip Kelly, isn't it? He's an excellent offensive mind, but he notoriously hates dealing with boosters and recruiting. His record at Oregon made him look like a fantastic head coach, but he was largely propped up by Oregon's flash and money that masked his problems. The NFL...

It'll be similar to the Spring. We'll get coaches interviews and certain players each day, all on rotation. @stech81 we start practice tomorrow and go through the 16th. Also, a reminder to everyone that Collins does morning practices, not in the afternoon like CPJ. So videos of interviews and...

I think you're right, it's that the leaders on the team don't put up with a defensive attitude. The article says that team collectively realized that getting defensive about criticism slows your development, so they hold each other accountable and call each other out when it happens. Curry feels...

Tori McElhaney's article in the Athletic this morning touched on this a little bit. Specifically, what was the culture change, how it affected coaching style, and how the players are responding to it with quotes from David Curry. Here are some quotes: Other quotes from Curry: Curry...

Ordinarily I'd post this in the Swarm Lounge (and mods are free to move it there), but I thought this season of Last Chance U released today is actually relevant because it features Jay Jones at QB. For those unaware, Last Chance U is a Netflix documentary show where they follow a JUCO team...

Really great article. I found the parts about his childhood really interesting, doesn't sound like it was easy. But he made the best of it. I'm really amazed by his motivation and drive, I wish I could siphon off a part of it. Also, I don't know if he was being facetious, but that news from the...

Supposedly earlier today CGC said that we had 32 guys hit 20 reps or more of 225 pounds on bench press. At the beginning of camp that number was 7. I think the previous staff was more focused on flexibility and endurance, but that increase is pretty significant if the new staff is focusing on...

Pretty standard responses from Collins to most questions, nothing new to gather. One weird question from an NFL draft guy asking Collins on his thoughts on Parker Braun. I imagine that guy didn't know that Parker had transferred? Collins just said he hadn't interacted with him much, but heard...

David Curry seemed really comfortable up there. Had some good responses.

Coach Collins is next up on the mic.

Had Clayton or Sims signed with us originally, they would have been the crown jewel of their respective recruiting classes. And Ezzard is the first 4* wide receiver we've had in our roster since Calvin Johnson, so that counts for something. We did really well in the transfer market, especially...

I was curious about this and you're right. Granted, these projections are really far out, but on DraftSite they have Kenny Cooper going at 54th and Parker Braun going at 121. On DraftTek they have Cooper as the 184th best prospect and Braun is not rated. Bleacher Report also listed Cooper as a...

I found this interesting tidbit in The Athletic this morning from Bruce Feldman's "Biggest Freaks List 2019," where he ranks the most athletic players in college football. While Georgia Tech doesn't have any players in this 50 player list, a familiar (last) name popped up at #9:

We're at 85 players now with 13 seniors. So, 13 players need to leave the program by the start of the 2020 season. It'll be interesting to see where it comes from.
