Hey look... Teddy Cahill saying something positive about Ga Tech baseball.

Go Jackets!! Can't wait for coming baseball seasons.

through 42:00. Great chat and insight. Super excited and high on 21 team, incoming class and momentum. Awesome stuff. Worth the listen.

For those hungry to listen to baseball talk about GT, great positive podcast.

Summer ball discussion starts 52min mark

honestly, wouldn't listen beyond 52 min.... just talking about summer leagues and nothing exciting....unless you're bored or driving....

Definitely worth the listen. Coach Hall says A.Wilhite is returning. Not sure we've heard that definitively, yet. Only senior returning... Hall's words.

Smart dude: “Georgia Tech ended up being that perfect fit for me,” he said. “Coming into the program, as well as coming into my academic career. I’ll be able to pursue a master’s in quantitative and computational finance. It’s one of the best programs in the country for financial engineering.”

Not sure I like the term "financial engineering" applied to Tech. I've known of companies engaging in "financial engineering", and most of the time it does not work out well...

Five ACC in the Top 15. That feels like it’s a little better than recent history for preseason. Just behind the SEC with 6. Both have 7 in the Top 25.

Noticeably absent is uga...

FOUR Coastal teams in Top 25...strong division!

#5 UVA
#13 Duke
#15 Ga Tech
#24 Miami

I like GT ahead of Dukies. Love our team with depth.
Counts where we finish, and overtaking UVA can be done!

We played against the 6'8" LHP who threw 94 and rocked him at 17U Elite this week. He's dominant on the mound when he has his stuff, but when he crumbles, it goes quickly.
That size and speed, he's gonna draft high.

This is more MLB than GT but really good article about the upcoming MLB season:

I could even get into curling at this point, so MLB at the end of the month is enticing.

Other that TdF starting in late August of course.

Hearing those initial murmurs... football season may be moving to Spring. Couple of questions/comments:
1) Would this be good or bad for Ga Tech baseball? I say overall... good with just more spectator traffic on campus to fill up Russ Chandler. UNLESS... it creates a perceived need to create a bunch of doubleheaders (2 Fri, 1 Sun) to avoid baseball and football (both at home on same Saturday).
2) This would certainly (for sure) IMPROVE the odds that I manage to get to Atlanta for a baseball weekend... especially if a football game were part of the deal/schedule.
3) Not sure when a spring football season would begin; but if it were "early" in the semester... then perhaps this move will force baseball to accelerate the plan/proposal that pushed baseball back (to the right) to de-conflict as much as possible. That proposal originally targeted 2022 as the earliest we'd maybe see that.
