    Assessing the Impact of GT Presidents on GT Athletics

    Bud Peterson is gone. Our new guy actually likes sports. We need him to approve some people on the fringe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2020 Offseason Thread

    This was not a good hire for them. He ran some of the most incompetent offenses I’ve seen at Tampa and Cleveland. Neither of those teams are top-end, but both had enough offensive talent to make things work for an imaginative play designer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Question About Tobias Oliver

    Tobias’ body makes sense at WR. But his mentality / ball skills are that of a RB / KR. He doesn’t run good routes at WR or catch with his hands particularly well. But he does special things with the ball in his hands. I don’t know where or how he plays, but we need to figure that out. Sent...

    Fromm Declares for NFL draft

    Jake Fromm is a good QB. He’ll do well playing at a good franchise picking in the mid-late round. I think he’s smart leaving now - low probability of raising his draft status given their offensive strategy and OL turnover. If they lose more than 2 games next year, the talking heads will question...

    CPJ interview - Nov 11

    In evaluating CPJ & staff as a recruiter, it is critical to consider when he became GT's HC. It was right when social media and smart technology adoption accelerated among the masses. I think GT's general lack of funding / infrastructure was exacerbated by these trends - now Bama and Clemson can...

    Next year's expectations - wants/needs

    More so than wins & losses, I need to see the following: (1) A coherent offensive strategy: I was super impressed with UL's offense in the Music City Bowl - shotgun spread with a heavy dose of running plays and options to take advantage of their athletes. There was no reason why we shouldn't...

    Kicker

    To challenge those anchored to the “4 year commitment” narrative - I’m fairly certain that academic scholarships are performance-based. Meaning, you have to hit certain grades and other milestones to maintain the scholarship. This idea that we blindly honor scholarships without factoring for...

    Kicker

    Your intuition isn’t dumb at all. The football sabermetrics guys say the best kickers will see variance in FG%, but will be very consistent in touchback%. The long term sign of a good kicker is touchbacks. Harrison Butker’s clutch FGs were awesome! But what made him such a valuable member of our...

    Kicker

    Be careful discussing our kickers. Suggesting that one can’t handle pressure warranted a warning from the mods. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Interesting article from AJC

    Anytime someone posts an AJC article, can you please indicate whether it’s worth reading in the title? I expect back handed crap. Not going to waste my time.

    Spring Practice

    I saw a rumor on a GT football FB page that the South Carolina guy is interested in GT. 55 career TDs. That’s a take for me.

    The Culture is Real

    None of them had to say that. I view it as a good thing. NC’s offensive skill set went obsolete over night with the coaching change. He would have the biggest axe to grind of anyone.

    Season in review.

    It just depends on when things start to click with our QBs. I think CDP comments about teaching fundamentals are interesting. That changes my perspective slightly

    Season in review.

    On a GT blog, I shouldn’t need to explain the idea that expected outcome is an aggregate of fractional win probabilities across a season

    Who’s not coming back for their Sr season?

    Not trying to start a coaching debate - but this is a great view of my primary criticism of Johnson. It had zero to do with the offense and everything to do with consistently bad personnel mgmt. You can only have so much personnel turnover and poor player development before it becomes more on...

    Season in review.

    This is a measured take. We’re a worse football team, but better program than we were during Johnson’s last 2 years (I’ll save face with the CPJ homers and say we were a better program with him the prior 9 seasons). But the vision is to play like a Florida team - stout defense and explosive...
