    Recruiting.

    Top 30 consistently is certainly obtainable. We were about one blue chip player away from achieving it under Paul Johnson in 2017. Rivals has been using the same formula to calculate their rankings for the last 6 years and from that we can calculate the general cutoffs. In short, the scale...

    Roster Transition

    Technically Jordan Yates is rated higher than Bama's QB commits. Taulia Tagovailoa is the 11th ranked Dual-Threat QB and Paul Tyson is the 10th ranked Pro-Style QB.

    For those wanting to know the new prices for season tickets ( football)

    It'll be my first season not as a student since I started being a fan in 2011. I'm tempted for the $240 New Alumni sideline tickets, but the Gold Stinger Mobile Pass also sounds appealing. Not sure if I want to commit to one section with the sideline tickets. Anyone have recommendations on section?

    This kind of stuff is way different from CPJ

    Not sure what was unrealistic about my claim. In 2016 we had one 4*, in 2017 we had four 4*, and in 2018 we had three 4*. Paul Johnson's staff already average multiple 4* recruits a year and we were roughly one blue chip (5.9 or better rating on Rivals) recruit away from having a top 30 class in...

    College Football's Top Facilities

    247 printed their new article on the top 20 college football facilities. Spoiler: GT does not make the cut. However, I think we have a chance at breaking into the rankings once we complete the fundraising/construction for the new Edge Center and weight room. It's interesting to see how much some...

    2019 GT Official Color Debate (formerly Adidas Swag Watch 2019 **

    This thread is confusing. People complain that navy blue is too common and we'd look like too many other teams if we use it too much. Then this combo pops up and they love it despite Purdue, Colorado, Wake Forest, and Vanderbilt all having black and gold as their primary colors. Come on, fellas...

    Brent Key; Hiring Details....

    Confirmed as the co-offensive coordinator, huh? I'm gonna go ahead and chalk this up as a win for me. I ought to start my own column :cigar: December 3rd, 2018: "Cam's Hot Take: Geoff Collins is hired as head coach and brings in Brent Key as his offensive coordinator." Source...

    Collins - Expectations and time to get things right?

    You can't legitimately be suggesting we should be "processing" players. That's completely asinine for a variety of reasons. Especially because Collins' whole shtick is that he loves his players and treats them like family. The whole "they don't care how much you know until they know how much you...

    More GT Alums hired as quality control specialist

    Are these folks slotting into the roles that were established by the recruiting fundraising campaign from a year ago? Or were those folks who were initially hired retained? If they are replacing the old ones, these hires aren't an actual expansion of the current staff.

    Collins - Expectations and time to get things right?

    I think patience on the field will be bought if there are several good recruiting classes being brought in. Mind you, Purdue gave Jeff Brohm a raise to $6 million per year (with incentives) after a 6-6 season. Sounds ridiculous until you see that Purdue's recruiting class is currently ranked...

    President Peterson has announced his retirement

    Hopefully whoever comes in can address the mental health situation on campus a bit better. My understanding was if you didn't say you were suicidal, you wouldn't get an appointment for counseling. The lack of funding was definitely a major criticism for YEARS from the student body. That being...

    President Peterson has announced his retirement

    Bud Peterson announces he is stepping down as the Georgia Tech president this morning via email to the student body. A search committee will be formed in the coming weeks to replace him sometime this summer.

    Brent Key expected to join Georgia Tech staff

    I really don't understand any of these people who somehow take offense to Brent Key negatively recruiting against GT. On a daily basis we have people on this forum who have pissing contests about whose time at Georgia Tech was most miserable and you're going to criticize Key for using that...

    Brent Key expected to join Georgia Tech staff

    Rated as the #2 recruiter in the nation, apparently. Granted a lot of that is simply working at Bama, but he's always had that reputation. This is a really splashy hire.

    Collins - Expectations and time to get things right?

    He was given an irregularly long 7-year contract for a reason. I anticipate 3 years to get our roster in a position that he is satisfied with personnel wise and talent wise. In the 2021 season you should expect an 8-10 season where our identity as a team is known. As for 2019 and 2020, I expect...

    Official GT announcement, OC and DC

    I like both of the hires. Continuity is important, especially when Collins' focus early on will likely be on establishing program structure, branding, and recruiting. Regarding Thacker, he seems like a great up and coming coach that had success running Collins' defense. Against Duke, in the...

    What is this thing about Waffle House?

    If it continues, it might become a meme. It would be a fun little thing that could help exposure and recruiting. Geoff Collins and Waffle House will become synonymous. Any mention of one will inevitably come with the other on Reddit. Our defense will be called the Smothered and Covered Defense...

    Hype and the GT fanbase

    I don't agree with people saying "talk is cheap." Collins isn't just talking, he's doing his job. He's going out to media outlets and trying to build excitement around the team. For a program whose home attendance has gone down for three straight years (2018 was the lowest since 2001), he...

    New Strength & Conditioning Coach

    This guy seems fantastic. Buffalo had a big year and you can bet that the players being in shape was a big part of that. Collins is building a very good staff.

    CPJ on ESPN Film Room

    I'd watch a show featuring Spurrier and CPJ just breaking down games and making sarcastic remarks. I think they'd feed off one another.
