  2. 5 GT opponents begin year in Top 25

    FWIW (Preseason polls notoriously inaccurate!!!) USA Today Coaches' Poll 3 Buttsniffers 4 Clemson 16 Miami 17 Pitt 24 Ole Miss Avg. Ranking 12.8 UCF (55 votes), UNC (34 Votes) were among the next 10 teams receiving votes. Trying to be optimistic but just don't see this going well for GT...
  3. Top Out-of-conference Schedules

    Ran into this article in a print version of USA Today. Had a nice picture of Sims: Top Out of Conference Schedules for 2021 Note not only GT on the list (and in the #1 spot) but also UGA and several ACC teams on this list.

  5. Who Emerged This Year & What Did They Show You?

    This is intended to be a fun, non-argumentative thread that recognizes guys for developing as players. I appreciate James Grahm. He showed me: --Will stand in pocket and throw an accurate pass despite being about to be obliterated. Shows toughness, moxy, and vision/sensing he can get it off...
  6. Highly Unlikely - but what if CPJ hired an OC?

    I don't think CPJ would EVER give up playcalling, period. And that's not the point of this thread. The point of the thread is to have fun exploring "what if he did give up playcalling". Here is an argument for "it might actually work in that alternative reality where he would would do it"...
  7. A few random thoughts

    1. Would like to see Taquon protect himself more at the end of runs when the yardage is non-essential. Get down, or get out of bounds......28 vs 27 yards doesn't matter. LJ is out and Oliver has a slight build...not sure how he would hold up long term. 2. Graham looks thick for a tr-fr. We may...
  8. Tech Kicker Commit Who Flipped to Bama

    Couldn't help but thinking about the Bulvas kid who flipped to Bama. Apparently couldn't beat out Pappanolus or take over the long range FG duties.
  9. GT under Pastner vs GT under Gregory?

    When JP was hired Calipari said JP was a much better fit at Georgia Tech than Memphis. I assume Calipari meant JP is cerebral/values academics highly and would be great fit working with the kind of kid we get/and to be in GT's culture. My understanding of Gregory was that he was a solid coach...
  10. Maybe the team will improve in 2016 similar to 2014?

    Well, despite some fonts getting absolutely irate any time anyone would say be patient, remember 2014, 2016's bunch did in fact get better. Not 2014 better, mind you, but closing out with wins on the road vs ranked VT, then UGA, plus handling business vs UVA showed definite improvement. IMO the...
  11. Theories Re: 2016's Big Plays?

    I'm wondering about all the big plays we hit. TOP was way down and big plays were way up. How do you explain it? I am wondering if after 2015, a season in which defenses got very aggressive with us and we couldn't make them pay, defenses elected to go with more this kind of aggressive...
  12. GT is tied for 25th in Red Zone Defense

    I was curious about this because we are ranked 122nd in team sacks and not suprisingly struggle mightily to get off the field on third down. When the field compresses our defense APPEARS to be more effective. I capitalized 'appears' because luck certainly can skew this particular statistic. It...
  13. Notre Dame to Play 2 Johnson Tree Spread option teams back-to-back

    LOL at ND. It's supposed to wear your legs out to play the spread option and they get high effort, scrappy, cut blocking service academy kids the next two weeks in a row (Navy, then Army). Meanwhile Army is improving under Monken. Last year they were more competitive but it didn't show up in...
  14. Win or Lose We have a LOT to be proud of

    This is something I've been thinking about, and which I believe needs to be said: Last year was a tough season, with a tough schedule, lots of injuries, and a roster on which nearly 1 in 3 scholarship players were true freshmen. On the field the breaks often went against us at key times. We...
  15. Potential C Backs?

    Synjyn played some QB, BB, & AB to garner the title "C Back". I thought it would be cool to keep track of guys who might carry the torch: Taquon Marshall - Started at AB, currently at QB, and could probably play every offensive skill position. M. Lands Davis - Started at BB, moved to AB out...
  16. State of the ACC: Your View

    I was thinking about the conference this morning and wondering if it is finally beginning to reach it's potential in football. There are a few factors that have me thinking it might be. I'd be interested to see what other folks think. And it's the off season, so what else are we going to do...
  17. New Commit Possibly

    A friend just texted me that a guy I played ball in college with's son just committed to GT. Haven't seen anything on his facebook site though. Not sure I want to release the name if it's BS info or the family doesn't want it out there yet. Rare time I would know anything ahead of the curve. I...
  18. Who else came up big in TEAM win?

    Who you got? Here's a few: BUTKER: Dude canned 3 FG's including a 53-yarder in a tight game. Miss any of those we lose this game. FG unit also protected well which had been suspect. Good job! Also FSU has a very dynamic KR guy and Butker kept parking it in the endzone so he couldn't return it...
  19. GT Roster - Distribution of Years of Experience playin' College Ball

    I got curious about the class distribution of our team. The above is a pivot table from Excel. It isn't perfect because somehow it only had 84 scholly players (I still included, Hankins, Lamont Simmons, and JJ Green). Here was the distribution of college football experience in years coming...
  20. Season's Effect on Recruiting...Or Not?

    I want to point out that kids pick a program for a lot of reasons. On the injuries thread, a couple of posters said they felt this season may really hurt our recruiting if it continues to be a bad season. Do you think this is true? I am not so sure after watching recruiting for years. I do...
