[QUOTE="COJacket, post: 117922, member: 67"] LOL, I just found this part of the site after being on here as a member since 3/13. Day job keeps me busy but had some time today and decided to go look at other parts of the site besides football and basketball. Here is my intro: Residence: Colorado Springs, CO. Been here for 23 years, before that Houston for 17 years. Before that GT. Graduated: BME, 1975 after 5 1/2 years. I think that puts me as "mature" and not quite "old" according to Mack. Family: Bride of 39 years, 3 boys. To my disappointment none went to Tech - all are mountain men (avid fly fishing, downhill skiing, backcountry skiing, kayaking, ice climbing, rock climbing, climbing 14'ers, hiking difficult trails while staying in the backcountry for days on end. You get the picture) They did not want to leave the Rockies. I think my wife and I did a good job with them :D Extended Family: one brother that is a Dawg grad; another brother that is an avid Clemson fan (married into the fanhood), a sister-in-law and brother-in-law that are Dawg grads; and two brother-in-laws that are GT grads. Makes things interesting;) Occupation: Leadership training, and die hard fan of all things GT! First GT FB player big fan of: Rock Perdoni (I started in 69 and he had a ten-tackle performance in which his pass rush contributed to four interceptions in the Yellow Jackets' 6–0 upset of the Dawgs in '69 - first big win I got to witness) Huge fan of other FB players over the years: Luuucious, Randy Rhino, Ken Swilling, Ted Roof, Marco Colman (from my hometown of Dayton, Ohio), Joe Hamilton, Eddie Lee, Shaun, Morgan, Dwyer, Calvin and BeyBey (doing great things for our Broncos) Some great GT moments for me: I was president of the Alumni Association in Houston. Got to dine with Bobby Cremins twice and Bobby Dodd and his wife twice. Cost of dinners $200; memories of the conversations - priceless. I would have given either of these two men my sons and told them to mold them. Interesting fact: My current boss was the Admiral that hired PJ at the Naval Academy. When we got him he told me, if your fans don't run him off too soon he will build an impeccable program that will win. So far I think my boss was right on the money. From what I have seen, PJ is doing it right. And, would be another coach I would give my son to to mold. I am not an X's and O's guy, so I cannot contribute like so many of you here on the site can. I do appreciate the X's and O's and the more that I have learned here the more that I understand the beauty of the flex bone (and I do find it exciting to watch - it has been explosive).
