It’s still a bad call. Even assuming a fake at this point makes sense, because of the surprise factor, a much better call would have been a play which had a high chance of getting the first down, but also had a significant chance of getting a huge chunk of yards or even a TD. The possibility of...

Fan support during lean times is probably largely correlated with how little else there is to do in the area.

This decision was extremely poor. #1 the definition of “the play would have worked” here is getting a first down. We wouldn’t have a gotten tremendous amount of yardage, or a TD. Even if the play worked, you still needed to go 60+ yards for a TD or 35+ yards for an attempt at a FG. On the...

Going by this list as an example (https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-engineering-schools/eng-rankings) Stanford, Illinois, Berkeley, Purdue, Northwestern, Michigan, Texas, Wisconsin, NC State, Texas A&M, USC. are also all top 25 engineering schools. Also, the majority of...

There is a huge gap between coddling people and calling them out in the media. No one is saying that he shouldn’t point out to players when they are doing something wrong. Some are arguing that he shouldn’t be doing this in the media. I don’t even necessarily agree with these folks that CPJ is...

I don’t see much difference in how CPJ are presents the players and himself after the game between his early years and now either. Yet my opinion has changed over those years and I don’t think there is any inconsistency in the fact that I changed my opinion either. 1) When he complained...

A fair catch outside the 25 is still a fair catch. The only difference is the ball isn't advanced any further. So I don't see why that should cause any confusion. It only means the ball is spotted in a worse position for Tech than it would have been if the fair catch had been taken inside the 25.

In the past 5 years or so, GT has played the most opponents with a bye week fore our game in the ACC. This seems to indicate some sort of conspiracy. However, we aren't alone because FSU is actually tied with us in this department. What seems most likely to me is that since the ACC doesn't...

My concerns are (a) New starting QB. (b) Early in the season. Our offense usually takes a few games to really start clicking, and I suspect having a new starting QB will not help. And under Roof the defense has also usually gotten better towards the latter part of the season. We saw this in...

I think this is the exact opposite of what has made the Patriots successful. The Patriots do not "know talent when they see it", just like every other NFL team. The difference is that Belichick knows that he doesn't know talent when he sees it. Unlike every other egoistic idiot running a front...

Those teams have massive endowments that could probably pay the debt off in one shot. However, when you're averaging 5-10% returns on your endowment but are able to raise debt at 1-2% only an idiot financial manager would choose to spend the money on hand instead of using the basically free...

That could have been a lot worse for PAC if ranked Utah hadn't scraped past Indiana in the PAC's only win. Just like how the SEC needed a FG block to beat a 6-6 MAC team in their only win so far. I think it's been a worse bowl season so far for the PAC because of the drubbing a 10th ranked...

Also, the Pac 12 has looked as bad, if not worse, than the SEC so far in the bowls, so UW may not even be as good as we think they are.

To be fair it was a quality win requiring blocking a FG in the closing seconds to beat a 6-6 MAC team.

Amazing how much better the ACC is now than it was when GT faced off against Wake in 2006 for the ACC championship.

I'm not a fan of people being paid millions off the backs of kids working for crumbs complaining about the kids's entitlement.

He was also following Calipari. He had absolutely no breathing room whatsoever.

With our luck, what it probably means is that he is due a bad hire.

He had an escape clause for the NBA. I'm pretty sure any decent college coach would have an escape clause for a professional team (especially 10-12 years ago, before college coaching salaries blew up the way they did).

And if Reggie really was that bad, then fault lies with Gailey who could not find a better QB than him for the 4 years he started for Tech, or the years he didn't. While Nesbitt had more success as QB at Tech, I doubt our teams would have been as successful with Nesbitt under center under a...
