    3 scenarios for Thursday...

    I am curious what everyone thinks would happen in terms of fallout for each of the 3 scenarios playing out: #1) We look like we're just not ready to play with a team like Clemson and they more than cover the spread, we get blown out by 40+ and don't look good doing it. #2) We play them pretty...

    Incoming Transfers?

    OK, so we're now back to 84 scholarships and there are rumors that there will be a few more. We have at least 1 scholarship as of now we could give to a transfer. We have 13 seniors as of now, so technically that leaves only 13 scholarships for next years class without further attrition. My...

    retiring #90

    I think there's some historical precedent for this at other schools... I'd love to see GT consider retiring jersey #90 for big Brandon. Anyone else think this would be a good idea?

    Where will RB's move?

    It's sort of unique to try to speculate this, but if we assumed for a moment that all of these kids were to stay and not transfer out, where would you project each of our scholarship RB's to play position wise next year? The most common places would be staying at RB, playing FB (likely for some...

    Early Enrollees?

    Who are our early enrollees? It looked like Collins posted a picture with 3 or 4 kids that arrived to campus today.

    New Semester - Dates?

    When does the new semester begin officially? Typically if a player is going to transfer in this time frame, we will hear about them withdrawing from GT before the new semester begins. Some others will wait for after spring practice, or announce before NSD. I'm just curious when that date...

    Roster Transition

    So... Assuming we hire Collins, we're obviously moving away from the TO and will likely be moving to more of a spread option. Here are our scholarship numbers by position as of now: QB's: 5 (2 incoming freshmen) RB: 12 (2 incoming freshmen) WR: 8 (2 incoming freshmen) TE: 0 (for obvious...

    Banks waiver application

    Has there been any news on this? I hope they clear him and he can play this fall. Would be a nice depth addition.

    Oliver

    He's got to be the starter going forward right? We've yet to see him run the full breadth of the offense, but his vision is excellent, he evades contact well in my opinion, and has the length and strength to fight for extra yards. I am grateful for TQM and all his hard work as a GT student...

    A-Back's after 2018 season

    So, after Qua Searcy and Clinton Lynch graduate, we have Cottrell, Jarrett, Gantt, and the 3 freshmen that signed and are coming in this fall (Jackson, Whatley, Smith). Obviously we could have position moves, such as one of the hybrid AB/BB guys like Mason moving over to AB, but we only have 4...

    Contract Buyouts

    Can anyone speak to the status of where the GTAA is on contract buyouts? Are we done with Gailey's? When will we be done with Hewitt and Gregory's? We really need to get clear of all the buyouts before we even have any conversation about adding more debt to the balance sheet. I think getting...

    Football Budget - Yes, it absolutely matters

    Before you complain about the state of our football program, this has to be on the table. GT is 61st out of 65 Power 5 teams in football budget. Below is how our spending compares to the rest of the ACC. When the top 4 are spending basically double or more than we are, it's no wonder we are...

    Miami Postgame

    We are 2 plays away from being 5-0. That's not an overstatement, it's exactly how it has gone down. I didn't think we could find a way to lose that would be more painful than the way the Tennesee game went, but that one was worse. We DESERVED to win today. That 4th and 10 miracle tipped...

    Schedule

    It's pretty crazy how difficult our remaining schedule is... #2, #5, #13 and #16 on the schedule. Plus Duke who won't be a pushover on the road. What's interesting is that I believe this team (with a healthy O line) can beat any of those teams... so the potential is there for a special...

    Way too early look ahead to 2018

    So I was just looking up and down the roster and we have a lot to be excited about heading into 2018... Offense... we have almost the entire offense back. QB: everyone returns AB: we lose JJ Green, who is a good player, but we have 3 of 4 in the rotation returning. BB: everyone returns WR...

    Xavier Gantt

    So I'm just curious if anyone knows why Gantt has not gotten on the field, even on special teams. I know we have 4 really strong AB's in front of him, but he didn't get any mop up snaps against JSU and hasn't gotten any time on special teams. I know many were really excited to get him on...

    Freshmen that played

    According to the participation report, only 4 freshmen played: J. Henderson B. Jordan-Swilling A. Kerr T.D. Roof I would guess we will see more that get snaps on Saturday.

    "Bag Men"

    I got into a conversation with a friend of mine that's a UGA fan and general college football fan... it was his opinion that all P5 schools have bag men, and that it's a widespread part of the game today. I told him I would highly doubt GT is buying players, not because we are "better than...

    The best troll ever... my dream...

    So, at some point in the future, I'd love to see us be in head to head recruiting showdown with UNC. The recruit can do the hat show, whatever they want. But when it's time to announce, they say "At this time is like to announce my commitment to North....... Avenue Trade School. I'll be...
