    Here's a thought

    I think we can all agree that our major problems last year were: Poor execution bordering on rebellion in the defensive backfield. Poor game management. A predictable and ineffective offense. An ineffective defense. If we see substantial improvement in those areas and indication of additional...

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    Our incoming recruiting and transfer class is a little above average. If our problem last year was mainly coaching, and I believe it was, the coaching changes should improve our performance. Hopefully it will. Since our head coach and DC did not change I expect the improvement to be...

    GT fans

    As a graduate of Tech I am aware that Jordan did not choose the easy way when he picked Tech. He has been a joy to watch, always giving 100%. The energy he brought to the team was unbelievable. Furthermore, he has been an excellent ambassador for our school. I wish him success in any thing...

    Going on the Record

    I picked 5 due to the coaching changes. I would have picked 6 but it appears that our head coach remains an arrogant BSer that has not learned a thing. Hopefully I am wrong and we will qualify for post season play.

    CGC on 680 this AM

    At least he made the statement that some of the things he has done in the past might not work now. Hopefully he is really aware of that. We will see if the defense improves to a tolerable level. I am concerned that Thacker is still "in charge" of the defense. Hopefully, the newly hired...

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    It appears that this new set of coaches will be able to actively coach their players without conforming to former restrictions. In my opinion we have needed more tough coaching in this program. Football players are tough individuals who respond to tough demands. I look for significant...

    OC and DC replacement thoughts!!

    He appears to be too arrogant to recognize his deficiencies.

    #GTvsMIA Postgame. Tech falls short 33-30

    I agree 100%. Many of these problems will be solved with recruiting and experience. Most of the problem solving will involve coaching. It appears that our coaching lineup needs an adjustment. That is the responsibility of CGC. He has handled recruiting very well. The coaching is suspect at...

    What would it take this year for you to be open to the idea that we're on the right track?

    After watching the game in person and watching a recording I have the following comments: 1- The coaching staff worked on reducing penalties and maintaining discipline during the off season.. We had only two penalties for ten yards. it appears that the staff accomplished what they...

    Article Season Opener Preview: The Northern Illinois Huskies

    We have had a couple of years of transformation. I believe in CGC’s approach to recruiting. I believe in his process. I believe in his coaches’ abilities( to a lesser degree). It is now time to evaluate. The best evaluation will take place based on performance on the field. I will...

    Expectations for the 2021 season

    If our recruiting, CBG’s philosophy, and our coaching are truly better, we should see a significant trend in the right direction. If we do not see that trend begin this year, the program is not moving in the right direction and staff modification should start. I personally think we are making...

    Expectations for the 2021 season

    I am expecting a noticeable difference in performance. We have had two full years of recruiting and it is time to start evaluating our coaching staff. They have had the opportunity to put their players in place and now we need to see production. I think CGC has made a move to reduce mental...

    Spring game thoughts

    It appears that our coaching staff has done a good job getting the players we need. Now we need to see if they can develop them into a winning team. This year is the year to start evaluating the coaching staff. I believe they will do well.

    ACC Discussion 2020

    Skalsky dropped his head. That is not only unsafe for the guy getting hit, it is unsafe for the guy doing the hitting. I think it is a rule that must be maintained and coached.

    Defense regression

    We have made improvements in recruiting. We have special talent at a few positions. We must continue recruiting well to establish a winning program. We have enthusiastic players who play hard. However, we have coaching issues that must be resolved. Players out of position, delays in getting...

    Virginia Tech Postgame

    Last year we kept the ball most of the time. This year we kept it about 25% of the time. The defense is short handed to begin with. They were exposed much more.

    CGC Post Game Interview

    Erk was never the AD. He was the head coach and a terrific one at that.

    A Message our Players (Reposted from the other site.)

    I think how a fan responds to this adversity determines whether they are a good fan or not. Being positive and trying our best to focus on the positives and the future help the situation, and bitching and complaining about the negatives not so much. I am also disappointed with not so good...

    GT needed a change

    It is obvious that we are going through a tough transition. Experts picked us to finish last in the ACC. Many people on this board, me included, chose not to believe that. They have been wrong in the past, but unfortunately it appears they may be right this time. There is one thing we should...
