[QUOTE="New Old Guy, post: 677027, member: 1256"] Agree completely re exams, and everyone on here who went thru them at Tech can understand and appreciate your point, no matter their feelings on CJP and MBB in general. The Syracuse game was more impacted than most of us realize. It was originally scheduled for the Sunday following exam week. That would have presented enough problems, but then the league moved our game to Saturday to avoid any school conflicts with the ACC FB Championship that Saturday (obviously Syracuse and GT were not in contention for being in that game). That one day move meant that we were not able to practice and prepare for Syracuse, not even once. Exam schedules were such that there was no time during the week the team was free to gather for a practice, and the Saturday noon tip off meant that we could not even do anything that day. So, we went in to the game cold and unprepared, after a grueling exam week. As we all know, it showed. But I think CJP's acceptance of the game results (that many of us took as a sign of being flippant or uncaring) was really just an acceptance of the reality of the jam that the ACC put us in. I took his demeanor as sort of "what can I do" (other than complain to the league). We are all proud of being Tech fans (it takes some patience, I know). And we know what "getting out" means, including surviving exams at the end of each term. I wish the ACC better appreciated the load our SA's have, and avoided assigning league games to the day after exam week. Sorry for the rant! [/QUOTE]
