  1. QB Transfer from Temple

    Not exactly. Players all got a free year of eligibility, and if they use it that year doesn't count to the 85. So essentially any guys who would be seniors last year that come back don't count toward the 85.
  2. Team Building With The Program

    I'm sure it's no accident this is happening when recruits are showing up on campus. The culture is our biggest selling point right now. Not a bad idea to put the emphasis on that.

    We are not in the first or second group for sure. Where we stand in the middle is highly dependent on methodology. Class recruiting ranking across 4 years is a good method, but it will miss out when comparing ratings of people actually on the roster. Looking at the recruiting rating of actual...
  4. Coach Tashard Choice on Packer & Durham

    He's borderline cheesy with his talk, but you can tell it's all genuine. He's got a huge heart and reference for how the institute rewarded his effort. No wonder people want to be around him. Kudos also to actually answering the questions despite the side tracking anecdotes. Bothers me when...
  5. Article Says BEST CASE Scenario Is 5-7

    I think it might be possible to come up with the numbers he cites. Lie is probably not accurate. Although it is intentionally misleading.
  6. Grandma Talent

    Thank goodness we get a chance to play football games. This whole post falls apart if we win 6 or more. Even still, we have ND on the schedule and are unfortunately going up against a bunch of upper classmen QBs in the games we have the ability to challenge for a win. If the basis of comparison...
  7. Article Says BEST CASE Scenario Is 5-7

    Many ways of doing it, but CGC was well familiar with the negative perceptions surrounding the program and CPJs offense. And he knew that doing a 180 in scheme was going to lead to at least one really bad season. So I think he effectively did his PR job without ruffling feathers too badly. Now...
  8. New Contracts for Assistant Coaches

    No matter how you slice it, it's a great thing when a member of your staff is wanted elsewhere and turns down a significant raise in order to stay with you. Quite frequently, people will use those offers to seek to boost their salary without really wanting to leave anyway. This is a good...
  9. Article Says BEST CASE Scenario Is 5-7

    The problem with the opinion is that they are saying it's a best case scenario. They cite 5 teams we have no business beating. Even if accurate, that would make the best case 7-5. So what is implied is that they think the best we can muster out of the remaining schedule is 5 wins and therefore...
  10. Jahmyr Gibbs, Quez Jackson named to preseason All-ACC team

    This is fair, although it's not just about record (see: Syracuse, Wake). When you have guys that put up stats on a bad team that are returning upper classmen, you can also get recognition. We really don't have any of those guys. On D, the possible candidates (Tre & Yeh for example) simply did...
  11. Antwan Owens Enters the Transfer Portal

    Slated at OLB there. Tore his ACL during spring practice unfortunately. Coaches comments indicate he was expected to be a contributor in 2021. It may have been more of a scheme fit challenge here than ability. Hoping that same concept works in our favor for Clayton and Harris.
  12. Official: BDS at 100% capacity in 2021

    I expected it to be legally tested somewhere. The big difference here being that the COVID-19 vaccines are under emergency authorization, so from a legal standpoint as to a risk category, there is a difference. I'm not sure if any emergency use vaccine has had a legal test applied to it...
  13. Jamie Foxx at GT

    Seriously. There are a lot of famous folks out there I don't know much about. So long as they are of good repute, it's great to have them around the program. Like the local hip hop scene. Now, some of those may be a little sketch, but assuming they're not it's awesome to see them get involved...
  14. Devin Smith Transfer

    GL Devin. I think he played in 1 game in 2019. Got his degree ahead of schedule and now will get a chance to compete on the field. A success story if you ask me.
  15. Jamie Foxx at GT

    That's hilarious
  16. Writer and Analyst ACC Forecasts

    11% vs. 6%. Again, watch the tape of the game vs others. The whole point here is that it was our secondary gaffes which enabled this, but those gaffes were generally poor decisions rather than bad players or bad scheme (principally). They do stand out as especially bad in a field of bad as...
  17. Writer and Analyst ACC Forecasts

    Big difference between 4 and 9... But, again, you have to look at the plays themselves. When a corner is on an island with a receiver and decides to let a guy run past him to play run support, you don't have to be very good to score a TD on the play. By no means a guarantee of anything. You have...
  18. Writer and Analyst ACC Forecasts

    It's a matter of perspective. About half of their offense came from 4 plays. The other 61 netted about 3 ypp. While there is credit to Cuse for making the big plays happen, the game tape reveals they were easily as much a function of bad defensive decisions as good offense. Like I said, we...
  19. Writer and Analyst ACC Forecasts

    I think the most exciting thing about our performance last year is that the principle barriers to success had nothing to do with athletic ability. We could have been a pretty good team if we were average in turnovers and penalties and the kicking game. This is not to say that athletic ability...
  20. Writer and Analyst ACC Forecasts

    Outgained them 453-357, not a small margin. Offset by 15 penalties, 5 turnovers, 1 49 yd KO return, blocked 26 yard field goal. We earned that L in all possible ways.
