    ATL Hawks Season Thread

    Haven't visited this part of the board before, but couldn't believe how little Hawks talk there was over here. Hopefully this thread will get some action this season. I believe the Hawks are on the cusp of something great, and may be where the Braves were last year (low expectations for actual...

    Game on CBSSN Only?

    Sorry if this has been discussed already, but I’m just now looking to see where the game will be televised. Apparently I don’t get CBSSN with my Dish package... What is the link everyone always talks about for streaming games?

    Bright Spots

    OFFENSE: Mason: Jordan Mason looked like a man out there dragging defenders and breaking tackles. He is clearly our #1. I like Howard receiving out of the backfield and Griffin looked good on his first carry, but Mason looked GREAT. Brown: I wondered throughout the game if we would get to...

    Which units impress Thursday night?

    QB: I'm bullish on the physical abilities of this unit, but nervous about their ability to direct the new attack. Hesitant to believe they'll perform well. RB: I can see Mason having an impact with his versatility. I'd like him to catch some passes out of the backfield. Griffin is the only...

    Braves GT night hat request

    Any of you going to SunTrust for GT night? I would LOVE one of those Braves/GT hats. I believe they will be selling extras, so if someone wanted to be real cool and get me one, I would cashapp you for it and for shipping.

    Duplicate Numbers

    Looking at the roster on rw.com, we have TONS of duplicate number guys (which is allowed as long as they aren't on the field together at the same time). On one hand, I like this b/c kids love to have the "cool" numbers (i.e. 20s and below). On the other hand, it will be something for coaches...

    Pick your CPJ sendoff finish

    Option 1: 700 yards of rushing, multiple 50+ yard runs en route to a UL-style butt whipping. Option 2: down 5 at end of 3rd Q, soul-crushing death march that takes the entirety of the 4th, punching it in on a QB sneak on 4th and goal with 3 sec left. How would you like to see the CPJ era end...

    The Big, Happy Elephant In the Room

    We ran the BB at will last Saturday. KB and JM averaged over 7 ypc. Neither even broke a sweat, and both looked capable of toting the rock 20+ times if necessary. GCG combo has potential to be best ever (especially when KC returns). For all the talk of TM's passing, perimeter blocking...

    Iron Sharpens Iron (position competition)

    It feels as though there is competition at multiple positions during this camp. Even if the depth chart is fairly set at a position, there is talent behind many starters that won't stop pushing throughout the season, thus ensuring starters can't rest on their laurels. QB: while TM is certainly...

    Offensive Style Going Foward

    Last season, I was impressed with how CJP ran our half-court offense through BL at the high post, incorporated hard basket cuts, and stressed execution to get the best shot possible on each possession. With our limited numbers, lack of offensive creators, and lack of knock-down shooters, it was...

    Rational Off-season Discussion Thread

    Hopefully, contributers to this thread will assume the following: 1) We aren't firing CPJ. 2) We aren't bringing in Brent Venables to run the defense. 3) "Demanding better" is not a SMART goal for improving our football program. (I'm going to try very hard to ignore posters who don't...

    CPJ on the Adidas fiasco (ROFL)

    In one small quote, coach takes a shot at all these coaches in trouble, our old brand, our new brand, and our own athletic department. CPJ just doesn't even care. Love it. http://ftw.usatoday.com/2017/09/georgia-tech-coach-paul-johnson-russell-athletic-adidas-college-basketball-scandal-fbi-ncaa

    Random Thoughts To This Point

    Weird start to the season, with two games in 6 days, a cancellation, and a reworked schedule going forward. Some thoughts on what I've seen: 1) We got our heartbreaker out of the way as well as our "played down to lower competition who was jacked up to play us on short rest" game. 2) OL...

    Josh Okogie comparisons

    JO is playing so well right now, and beyond just the hard takes. His IQ is on a high level, his passing from the high post last night was great (loved how CJP used him and Ben in the middle of the zone), his defensive awareness, intensity, and ability to cut off penetration is superb. In...

    Stansbury Article

    http://www.ajc.com/sports/college/new-tech-stansbury-expresses-confidence-paul-johnson/a73YwA1SvHtNcs5jrjKUQO/ Just wanted to post for comment. Nice to hear an AD talk in familiar fashion about GT student-athletes. I believe he understands the challenges we face and believes we have the...

    Antonio Simmons to play more...

    http://www.ajc.com/sports/college/antonio-simmons-could-have-bigger-role-against-pittsburgh/LfJ5kbmmIcSyQWG1RVr1LI/ This young man has been my favorite to watch play this season. He brings an aggressiveness, athleticism, and a little, dare I say... swagger to our DEF. Every time he's on the...

    One Undeniable Offensive Improvement

    To my eye, our pass blocking has improved in 2016 significantly. Whether from the addition of Coach West, or an increased emphasis from CPJ and Coach Sewak, it is clear that we are not only more fundamentally sound as individual OL, but seem to have a better overall approach to pass blocking...

    AJC B-Back Preview

    http://georgiatech.blog.ajc.com/2016/03/21/georgia-tech-spring-practice-preview-b-back/ Byerly excited about MM and CJL, also that KB is a rock. QW could wind up at AB or BB. Love that in the CPJ quote on Mills, they had [offseason workouts] bracketed when coach was saying he looked good. I...
