[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 474610, member: 322"] Not responding to anyone, but I think we all agree that our players are giving it everything they have and haven't quit. Sometimes the other team is just bigger, faster and stronger; other times the other teams coaching is better; other times it's just the bounce of the ball. But our players are doing everything they can and we'll always root for them. The Hill doesn't need athletics to achieve their academic goal. GT has way more highly qualified applicants than they can handle; the problem is sorting out who to cut. That's why GT has the highest SAT of any PUBLIC university/institution. They don't need the Alumni Clubs in different towns and we were told to butt out and not have meetings with parents of students who applied. Didn't want to contaminate The Hill's message. Athletics ( football, basketball) are not necessary to get the"quality" applicants that The Hill desires. So why should The Hill do anything at all to dilute their drive for academic purity? (a bit of hyperbole but the point remains.) Thank God both my kids have turned 30 and done ok. They may have overcome our errors or whatever, but it worked out. I'd also like to note that us adults are far from perfect :whistle:;) I used to want to cry about how our games went but now it's like I've seen this before. Too easy to get over. Baseball season is coming; but there's no crying in baseball either. [/QUOTE]
