    Tech loses Chris Kirschner from the Atheltic.

    I am staying subscribed since I follow a lot of the Fantasy sports, NFL, general NCAA, and Chicago coverage (Blackhawks get a lot of content). Hopefully as time goes on and they grow they can hire more dedicated college staff members. Right now they have 27 teams with dedicated football coverage...

    FEI Off/Def/SpT Rankings 2018

    I'd be lying if I said I wasn't checking it each day this week to see if they finally uploaded them. Don't know why, but I just love sifting through data like this. And I thought posting how they rank our offense as #11 would get some discussion going.

    FEI Off/Def/SpT Rankings 2018

    Football Outsiders released their first Fremeau Efficiency Index (FEI) offensive, defensive, and special teams rankings today. For anyone who doesn't know, FEI is a pretty reliable set of ratings/rankings for teams that does its best to clean up and normalize all of the data. This means things...

    The Next realignment

    I feel that the graduate research model could be a viable solution. Give the players tuition and a yearly stipend (paid by TV contracts or whatever) in the range of $20-35k based on a location's cost of living. Give some committee the ability to oversee cost of living justification so that...

    AD sabotage the football program

    It's worth pointing out that 6500 of those grad students are for the online Master's in CS degree that was introduced a couple years ago. They still pay for their degree (about $7000 total, which is insane btw), but a lot of that growth is a bit misleading. Now I can tell you from experience...

    Highly Unlikely - but what if CPJ hired an OC?

    You could see pressure from TStan to "modernize the offense" as an alternative to firing at the end of this season. With Gregory and Hewitt coming off the books next year, we'll technically have the funds to hire one of those OCs Quinlan suggested we were going to bring in for fresh ideas. Like...

    Athletic Director's Update

    Someone already mentioned it, but the idea was that they wanted to develop more in-state engineers to make up for a shortage. The problem was that instead of developing some of the other tier 2 engineering options in the state (Georgia Southern, Kennesaw State, etc.), they decided to give UGA an...

    Athletic Director's Update

    If UGA can be given an engineering program without any financial certainty that it can stay afloat, I'm sure we could push to expand to a couple more majors. Keep them under the technology umbrella if they really want to and keep our reputation in tact.

    Paul Johnson time frame.

    Pretty sure Venables is just waiting for Bill Snyder to retire at Kansas State so he can take over as head coach. In the meantime, he'll keep collecting rings at Clemson.

    Paul Johnson time frame.

    All of those except Godsey will want too much money. Keep in mind that Norvell and Strong make $2.5 million next year. We pay CPJ $3 million, but we save a bit of money on not hiring an OC. So, we will need to hire one of those guys for about $3.5 million (the going rate for new ACC head...

    Let's compare coaches, just for fun !

    Prior to the season, Bruce Feldman at The Athletic ranked the top 10 coaches looking to move up. His top 10 was Neal Brown (Troy HC), Mel Tucker (UGA DC), Ryan Day (OSU OC), Jimmy Lake (Washington Co-DC), Manny Diaz (Miami DC), Tony Elliot (Clemson Co-OC), Jeff Brohm (Purdue HC), Lane Kiffin...

    College Football's Most Valuable Teams

    I believe Paul Johnson said he wanted to hire Ellis Johnson when he got here in 2008, but he was told we couldn't afford him. Ellis Johnson had some really great defenses at South Carolina from 2008-2011. It's crazy to think that if we had just mustered up the cash then, we might have been able...

    College and Pro Sports Seasonal Thread

    I guess App State might be a good football team.

    USF Postgame Discussion

    I agree. We are in absolutely no position to fire CPJ currently unless one (or more) donor(s) step up and foot the bill. If this year becomes a repeat of last year, enthusiasm for the program will continually decline and that'll have long-term effects. 9 wins and a Coastal title would remedy...

    USF Postgame Discussion

    Eh, I'm holding off on them the same reason I'm holding off on Brian Bohannon: Who was the last FCS coach to be hired at a Power 5 school? Has anyone ever made that jump before? Don't get me wrong, all three have done great jobs at their level, but we should not take that kind of chance unless...

    USF Postgame Discussion

    If anyone is familiar with Kirk Ferentz's 10-year Theory, it's that folks like their head coach 10% less each season. If you last to the 10-year mark, you get a full reset. With CPJ, it seems like he didn't hit that reset button. I am not giving up on the season and think we can continue to get...

    USF Postgame Discussion

    Hated this loss. 602 yards on offense (180 more than USF), 7.4 yards per rush, yet we were 3 of 12 on third down and didn't score once in the last 14 minutes where it mattered most. That's just my thoughts on offense. Defense and special teams I don't have words for. Tennessee all over again.

    Fire Paul johnson for Taking Tobais Oliver out of the game

    Offense put up 602 yards, but we got outscored 21-0 in the last 14 minutes. Not sure what to say. This hurt like the Tennessee game. All the way down to the late fumble by an A-Back in the red zone.

    Georgia Tech vs. South Florida Predictions #GTvsUSF

    GT wins 38-17. Our team is more talented, more experienced (especially on offense), and better coached. I think our offense is going to roll considering Elon seemed to move the ball well on the ground. Heavy rain could throw a massive wrench into things though if it makes us turn the ball over...
