Nov 12, 2014 8:40 PM - Eric: Can't wait for Saturday!
Nov 12, 2014 8:48 PM - CrackerJacket: Why, Eric? Got a hot date? bwahahahaha
Nov 12, 2014 8:50 PM - Eric: haha im married, no more of those.
Nov 12, 2014 8:52 PM - CrackerJacket: Wanna believe we can whip Clem, but the talent gap looks wide to me, esp comparing our D to theirs.
Nov 12, 2014 8:53 PM - Eric: I think Clemson will slow our offense down some, we are going to need the D to step up. They are loaded at skill positions.
Nov 12, 2014 8:53 PM - CrackerJacket: Think we'll needd to be +2 in takeaways to pull off the win.
Nov 12, 2014 8:54 PM - Eric: That or some stops.
Nov 12, 2014 8:55 PM - CrackerJacket: We've had so much trouble getting off the field on 3rd down, though. That's why I think we'll need the turnovers
Nov 12, 2014 8:55 PM - Eric: Yeah we have, just hoping Watson is rusty.
Nov 12, 2014 8:57 PM - Longestday: Running QBs have given us some trouble... just got to hope their OL is as down as the press has mentioned
Nov 12, 2014 8:58 PM - CrackerJacket: Wonder if CPJ has any new wrinkles in the O to run against Clem. They have defensed our team much better since Dabo changed his DC.
Nov 12, 2014 8:58 PM - Southpaw13: Thanks Eric, for all you do. Ready for saturday as well!
Nov 12, 2014 8:59 PM - DuckGT: Perkins good to go?
Nov 12, 2014 8:59 PM - CrackerJacket: I second my fellow southpaw. Thanx to Eric, mind rite for Saturday.
Nov 12, 2014 9:00 PM - Southpaw13: Count me in the minority of folks that's glad the game is at noon... I have to go to a wedding at 4
Nov 12, 2014 9:04 PM - CrackerJacket: Hmmm...the lady wants to get married on a college football Saturday afternoon. Counseling necessary already!
Nov 12, 2014 9:05 PM - Southpaw13: Haha agreed... the bad part is that I've only met them like once.
Nov 12, 2014 9:09 PM - CrackerJacket: Egad. I remember when a girlfriend asked me to escort her to a wedding of people I didn't know. Long evening, but open bar at reception, so not a total loss.
Nov 12, 2014 9:10 PM - Southpaw13: I'm hanging on to hope for that open bar... hopefully it will be a night of celebration after we take care of the Tigers.
Nov 12, 2014 9:10 PM - CrackerJacket: Yeah, you will know by the time you have to leave for the ceremony.
Nov 12, 2014 9:12 PM - Southpaw13: for sure. I am not sure if I'm worried or confident. I feel like it's a true toss up game, could really go either way.
Nov 12, 2014 9:15 PM - CrackerJacket: It can be hard for me to watch on TV or computer. Stomach gets tied up in knots. Guess I should move close enough to come to games.
Nov 12, 2014 9:17 PM - Southpaw13: I've been to 3 games this year, was out of town for Duke and couldn't make it to VA. Sad that the wedding kept me from going but at least I can watch on TV
Nov 12, 2014 9:19 PM - Southpaw13: Eric who is the next commit? Benson? Who is the staff wanting if we don't get Saint Armour (which looks much less likely than a month ago).
Nov 12, 2014 9:27 PM - Eric: Sorry fellas..im back now
Nov 12, 2014 9:28 PM - Eric: I would go with Benson. that is my guess.
Nov 12, 2014 9:28 PM - Eric: I know they like Chris Hart but they dont think he has the grades.
Nov 12, 2014 9:28 PM - Southpaw13: So who is next on that list?
Nov 12, 2014 9:29 PM - Eric: They won't give that info out.
Nov 12, 2014 9:29 PM - Southpaw13: Gotcha. I guess they have to have some secrets :)
Nov 12, 2014 9:30 PM - Eric: haha yeah, Coach I talked to wasn't sure...he didnt feel like we would get Amour before the Stanford offer.
Nov 12, 2014 9:30 PM - Southpaw13: I figure we're out at this point, but stranger things have happened.
Nov 12, 2014 9:30 PM - Eric: @Duck yes Perkins is good.
Nov 12, 2014 9:31 PM - Eric: Yeah, have to get a OV.
Nov 12, 2014 9:31 PM - Southpaw13: I feel like we are pretty stacked at DE for the next few years, I'd rather they take another DT with that spot, or another DB.
Nov 12, 2014 9:32 PM - Eric: We want A Back, LB, DE and DT.
Nov 12, 2014 9:33 PM - Eric: A 3* OL out of Fla wants to come to GT but were past full on the OL...If we wanted to take another OL have would two that we could flip with a phone call.
Nov 12, 2014 9:33 PM - Eric: Weird spot for us to be in.
Nov 12, 2014 9:34 PM - Southpaw13: I figured we had 5 spots? ... also isn't O'Reilly going to hang em up? Maybe we could take one of those two you mentioned for his spot?
Nov 12, 2014 9:35 PM - Eric: That 5th spot is probably the best overall.
Nov 12, 2014 9:35 PM - Eric: Thomas hasn't made that choice yet...IMO we have greater needs at other spots than OL right now.
Nov 12, 2014 9:36 PM - Eric: IMO, if we offered another lineman right now it would be Marcus Norman.
Nov 12, 2014 9:36 PM - Southpaw13: It's exciting to be where we are with this class... hands down the best class CPJ and staff have put together IMO. What are your thoughts on how we're looking for 2016 so far?
Nov 12, 2014 9:37 PM - Eric: Set up great so far, was just talking to one of our recruiting guys about this yesterday...have 12 real offers out on offense so far. Feel like we have a chance with several.
Nov 12, 2014 9:37 PM - Eric: We are way out front with Marshall.
Nov 12, 2014 9:38 PM - Eric: Hold your breath, but were also in good for a Buford kid.
Nov 12, 2014 9:38 PM - Southpaw13: I havne't watched his film, I guess they feel like he's the QB they want? I'm sure seeing Justin Thomas thrive is changing the perception of our offense for some recruits.
Nov 12, 2014 9:38 PM - GTonTop88: Marshall would be a great get, could really get us rolling with elite talent
Nov 12, 2014 9:39 PM - Eric: #1 QB on the board for us.
Nov 12, 2014 9:39 PM - Southpaw13: Do you know anything about how we stand with Nygel Edmonds from Westminister?
Nov 12, 2014 9:40 PM - Southpaw13: Hmm, was at WM, now his profile on 247 says he's in Tennessee
Nov 12, 2014 9:41 PM - Eric: Yeah he transferred before last year, long shot for us.
Nov 12, 2014 9:42 PM - Southpaw13: I would have loved to see him here... I taught him in 8th grade. Good kid.
Nov 12, 2014 9:42 PM - GTonTop88: do you think that the offense should be as good or better next year with the development of our returning starters, despite losing all of our skill position guys and Shaq
Nov 12, 2014 9:43 PM - Eric: Hard for the O to get much better, IMO we are going to take some lumps early in the year with all new RBs and WRs' really...blocking is a concern on the permiter
Nov 12, 2014 9:43 PM - Eric: 2016 kids to watch
Nov 12, 2014 9:44 PM - Eric: Moe Neal
Nov 12, 2014 9:44 PM - Eric: Cade Carney
Nov 12, 2014 9:44 PM - Eric: Jordan Mack
Nov 12, 2014 9:44 PM - Eric: Bilal Ally
Nov 12, 2014 9:44 PM - Eric: Tomon Fox
Nov 12, 2014 9:44 PM - Eric: Ke'Shan Pennamon
Nov 12, 2014 9:45 PM - Eric: Hussein Howe
Nov 12, 2014 9:45 PM - Eric: Xavier Gantt
Nov 12, 2014 9:47 PM - Southpaw13: Some good ballplayers there. I'm excited. Top 30 recruiting classes means routine 8-10 win seasons.
Nov 12, 2014 9:48 PM - GTonTop88: Leggett, Summers, Andrews, Snoddy, and Devine are gonna be very important next year
Nov 12, 2014 9:48 PM - Eric: Going to be counting on Fr as well.
Nov 12, 2014 9:50 PM - Southpaw13: I expect Snoddy to take a big step next year. He's shown me a lot this year. I also think Andrews can be big. Thankfully that young group of backs will have a really good QB and a REALLY good line to play behind next year.
Nov 12, 2014 9:51 PM - Eric: Our O is always good enough to win us games, D is where we need to get better...but damn our O is unreal this year
Nov 12, 2014 9:52 PM - Southpaw13: Eric what's your prediction for Saturday?

Nov 12, 2014 at 9:54 PM - Southpaw13: Ouch :(
Nov 12, 2014 at 9:54 PM - Eric: Hope im wrong.
Nov 12, 2014 at 9:54 PM - Southpaw13: Though I really don't know if I expect a win either. I want to, but don't expect it.
Nov 12, 2014 at 9:58 PM - AE 87: if bud foster had cu's horses, it would ne rough, but I think cpj beats venables
Nov 12, 2014 at 10:00 PM - Southpaw13: we've always put up yards on them. going to come down to turnovers and 'breaks' i think
Nov 12, 2014 at 10:03 PM - Foxyg: What finger did Watson break?
Nov 12, 2014 at 10:06 PM - Eric: We got behind too far last, didnt get a first down till the second quarter.
