He's a slave to Rivals.com's recruiting rankings and has consistently overrated Georgia in particular for several years now (though they were a top ten team last year). IIRC, he said they were a dark horse for the national title in 2010, whereupon they went 6-7.

How do you say we have 9 All-ACC picks player but rank us 30th, makes absolutely no sense
It's what he does so he can always claim to be right. He'll rate a team low but then have them as a "dark horse" pick to surprise, or rate someone high up but then point out all their holes in case they fail. He's a self-promoting douche nozzle who is always right, even when he's wrong.

Does Tech get money for using JeT's picture there since he can't get any for it?

considering that they will have three weeks to prepare for it and the option never does very well any time a team is provided extra time to play against Georgia Tech."
This is when I think sports analysts have the easiest job in the world. Otherwise grown men who claim intelligence repeat the same childish school yards tales over and over like they are truths from Mt. Sinai.

I just heard Steele interviewed on 92.9, Geez what a tool.....and Marc James is just the worst sports talk guy i have EVER listened to, just brutal. He makes Steak and Beau sound like geniuses.
