  1. NCAA’s estimated probability of competing in professional athletics

    It’s 12% at where we’re at though. Odds aren’t great but at the end of the day it’s a skill based lottery. With that number jumping to ~60% for 5 star recruits and 25% for 4 star recruits, there’s measures in place for high schoolers to get a good estimate of there chances 3 years before they...
  2. NCAA’s estimated probability of competing in professional athletics

    Reminder that this includes all 3 divisions of college athletics as well. Report goes further down to state 12% of power 5 draft eligible players were drafted. In other words, the average power 5 team roughly has 2 players/year drafted

    Also have to remember bowl games as well. Look at how many season we had 6 or 7 wins but no bowl game. 75 and 89 had the potential as well, with 7 win seasons but no 12th game, bowl game, or conference championship. Base formula is 14-total games + wins Years we could have had 10 wins...

    Not trying to diminish it because it’s imprtant, but with ACC title games and a 12 game schedule he did get 2 more games than basically every other coach besides Gailey. With rule changes, there’s about 8 other seasons that could have been possible and 4 that would have been extremely realistic...
  5. Implications of GT being relevant in recruiting

    More than 50% of 5* and 25% of 4* get drafted, and a 4* is 4x more likely to get drafted. A person can do academics, be heavily recruited, and care about football more. See Calvin Johnson, who wanted to study civil engineering in high school, but ended up majoring in management at tech. Their...
  6. Implications of GT being relevant in recruiting

    It’s naive to assume Georgia tech doesn’t do that at all
  7. Implications of GT being relevant in recruiting

    Administrative changes made at the start of Paul Johnson’s tenure towards Academics and the expansion of the tutoring system for athletes have made it a lot easier. Hell, just look at what just happened with Maryland. Or the players academically suspended at FSU and Michigan this year. The last...
  8. Implications of GT being relevant in recruiting

    No I’m saying that Trenton Thompson’s desire to play football st UGA was greater than his desire to study physical education because he figured playing football at uga gave him a good shot at making it to the NFL, which was more important to him than studying physical education. Same with Trevor...
  9. Implications of GT being relevant in recruiting

    Trenton Thompson #1 overall 2015 recruit said he wanted to study Khysival education. Majored in fashion mechandiaing at UGa Trevor Lawrence wanted to major in Forensic science burn is currently undeclared. That's just the two most recent #1 overall recruits that went to our rivals. I'm sure...
  10. Implications of GT being relevant in recruiting

    You do know the academic standards for tech are available on the University System of Georgia website under the minimum requirements for a Research institution section. And we have waivers for people that don’t hit that? And all of this is publically available and the AJC did a study about...
  11. Why Geoff Collins's Georgia Tech Rebuild Starts With a Rebrand

    Really good until 2012 when he hit the “I should retire soon” stage. Until 2013, it was just GT or VT in the title game from the Coastal. From 2004-2011, he never had FEWER than 10 wins, and those are all ACC seasons
  12. GA TECH IS BUZZING! | FOOTBALL HOTBED | NATIONAL UNDERCLASSMEN SHOWCASE ..

    West campus lots aren’t full with cars and tech is moving to a campus without Robards to drive on, so parking is a non issue

    Same things apply to housing as they do academic buildings, but they’d need even more space
  14. GA TECH IS BUZZING! | FOOTBALL HOTBED | NATIONAL UNDERCLASSMEN SHOWCASE ..

    Issue is to create a dorm or building they essentially have to purchase a block at a time. Real estate lottery doesn’t work out that we’ll when almost all of those a rental properties and you have to buy 16 at once
  15. GA TECH IS BUZZING! | FOOTBALL HOTBED | NATIONAL UNDERCLASSMEN SHOWCASE ..

    Tech is landlocked with the explosion in midtown. They can definitely renovate older buildings and dorms to be taller, issue is that off campus housing is cheaper, so there really isn’t a need to do it. Renovating costs money and college is already rediculously expensive, and the desire to not...
  16. Good TV Shows?

    Just finished season 2, was solid but I felt like I got nothing out of it. Season 3 is solid so far, got my theories
  17. Good TV Shows?

    Worth watching at all?
  18. Good TV Shows?

    Just finished season 1. Fantastic. Season 2 of True detective just as good?
  19. Back in my day...

    Have to plan around the commuters unfortunately, something that didn’t happen in the Olden days. Had a few of my classmates commute from Athens in the past few years that wouldn’t be able to attend classes with half an inch of snow on the highway or trains being cancelled
  20. Collins springs for Free pizza for da frats!

    Have you seen the south end zone? General admission isn’t doing crap to get students in FOR FREE in the south end zone Block seating exists as it will usually get people who reliably go to games in the closest seats to the field. Is there an issue with leaving early? Absolutely when it’s a...
