I think it's the fact that it's being played at MBS that it'll potentially bring in College Gameday. Here's a comparison: College Gameday was hosted at the Unranked Virginia Tech vs. #17 Tennessee game in week 2 of 2016. Why did the bother making this matchup between a couple non-contenders...

I would have been excited about this if it was under CPJ too, this isn't a Collins Kool-Aid thing. This is just objectively good for GT for multiple reasons. The only real downside is sentimentalism over Bobby Dodd and a romantic idea of what college football should be, which I understand with...

I'm really excited for these games! I've never been in MBS, but I know plenty of people who have for Atlanta United or Falcons games that say it's amazing. It'll be a cool experience and it shakes things up a bit in terms of atmosphere each year. Also aligns us a lot more with the city of...

Surprised to see Mitch Hyatt went undrafted. Former 5 star OL and 4-year starter for Clemson, allowed only 5 sacks as a starter. Ended up with the Cowboys as an UDFA.

The players are Christian Campbell (10), Nathan Cottrell (31), Devin Smith (11), Ahmarean Brown (85), Malachi Carter (81), Zamari Walton (21), and Jair Hawkins-Anderson (86) if you don't recognize some of the numbers (like me). That's 3 DB, 3 WR, and Cottrell (RB/WR?).

I actually just gave 680 a whirl for the first time this morning hoping to catch some clips of yesterday's Collins interview. Some of those comments about CPJ were absolutely scathing. Where they like that in years past? Or are they just letting it fly now since he's retired?

Bringing in Jeezy was a hell of a move. I wonder how that was put together and who reached out to whom. This is smart marketing by CGC and I'm pretty impressed we pulled it off. We're also supposed to have someone lined up for the Spring Game, which will also be huge.

I'm in total support of Josh Blancato, as a fellow Kell HS alumnus. Last Kell guy to play for GT might have been Jon Dwyer? That guy was also pretty fast.

Odd post, seems like it could have been framed a bit better to "spark a conversation." The OP just comes off as trolling. To turn it into some kind of discussion, I don't think there's a lot we can deduce from any team that went up against the best offense in program history (and CPJ's career)...

I love college football above any other organized sport, but I would start following hockey, tennis, and other sports I follow more closely. As much as I follow football (near obsessively), I don't think it would be that hard for me to move on with time. Granted, football would never be gone...

Looks like Matt Rhule was at the practice this morning. I would guess him and Collins talked often during the Temple coaching transition, they must still be friends. Pretty cool!

A lot of my friends have taken pictures sitting on the one in the Turner building, so I'd say this is it. It's smart to take advantage of this, it's just topically cool marketing.

Christian Campbell had an interesting quote today that I thought was relevant to this thread. From Tori M.'s article:

I would imagine that we're going to see some of our DBs leave. We have recruited a fair number of highly rated guys at that position over the years and the current spots seem to be occupied by some of the younger players. Pure speculation, but some of those not gaining daily Twitter shoutouts...

Like the 404 hat Collins wore with the numbers in the yellow Waffle House squares? That's what I imagine it'll be. Which is awesome.

The fact that I'm contemplating donating $404 for a hat and backpack (but mostly for the hat) is insane. They won't have any problem getting their donations today. Wearing that hat around is a pretty slick signal to other GT fans that you put your money where your mouth is for support.

Collins basically willed us into a strong partnership with Waffle House out of nowhere, so I could see him finessing Adidas a bit. He does seem to push the "Three Stripe Life" and Adidas brand pretty hard. I think the top players in practice are designated by the "three stripes" on their helmets...

All I see is Shaq's golden jet bike from the movie Kazaam. Such an iconic ride from a cornerstone of American cinema.

Tori M. wrote a good article about the "Above The Line" (ATL) philosophy for the team and how Collins won't necessarily use depth charts. I was skeptical at first, but the more I've thought about it, the more I like the idea of simply playing as many capable players as you can. In theory, it...
