Quincy Avery Tweet

[33jacket]

This is what I'll say to that:

Jordan Yates was one of Avery's "students". Even though Avery was quite vocal about being anti-triple option, Yates never wavered when he was committed to CPJ and the option.

Many things have been said about GT running the option, but one thing no one can argue is: 2 Orange Bowls, 3 ACCCGs, 1 ACC Championship. That's what the triple option in Atlanta got us.

Like I posted in another thread. Some of best seasons and memories in tech history are under paul. If collins can do that or add to it we will be very lucky

Animal: The "ignoring of defensive holding of O linemen" is really a BIG factor. It seems that year in and year out the definition of O line holding is muted more and more. If they called it when they needed to call it, would it slow down play? Yes, for a while, but guys would adjust and learn technique blocking. There would also be more QB sacks, which I think is exciting. It is frustrating.

Still remember our last game against Notre Dame. Seemed liked they held on every play and neutralized our defensive line. Never got called.​

I have a question and don't want to start a new thread, so will ask it here. Where is Mike Jackets? He was posting so many times and have not seen him lately.

Sometimes people take a hiatus. I was off this site for several months and no one noticed.

Don't forget 3 mutt wins.

I think he may have a new handle, but I'm not sure.

He's "YellowJacketFan..." something I believe. Could be wrong. You know it's gotten bad if y'all ran MikeJacket away lol

I don’t think anyone could argue the results. I’m not gonna go into a back and forth about it but in Atlanta I will say it was low key killing the program.

Then why did you post the tweet?

There's a new (at least to me) poster on here named MikeGT. That could be him too

 

[Supersizethatorder-mutt]

Well, maybe not. I just checked and MikeGT has been a member since 2014

With the unexpected passing of OldJacketFan, one can't help but wonder if maybe something has happened to Mike. If OJF's daughter had not known of his love for this site, we might not have known about him. Hopefully, if something has happened to Mike, someone in his family knows about the site and will notify us.

Oh what could’ve been if we simply continued the diamond in 2012/13 and put our lineman in 2pt stances

The wide gaps qb in shotgun w single back behind him, 2 wide wrz, and 2 tall slot receivers is the air raid. It morphed into a very effective running offense after defense adjusted to stop the long pass.

On right defense the qb signals and ol goes into 3 point w a quick snap.


I hope we drive block this year and don t bear dance every down.

Going to be a long wait till spring game.

Awesome job not going into the back and forth on it. And how many times have you complained about CPJ fans not “moving on?”

Lololol

And 50% of the 10+ win seasons post-Dodd...

 

[Augusta_Jacket]

I know some Tech football alum that feel the same way. Some are more open than others.

I won’t say it was stupid but I personally never liked the option at GT.

We are all very aware of this.

That being said, I appreciate your insight on these boards.

Not trying to diminish it because it’s imprtant, but with ACC title games and a 12 game schedule he did get 2 more games than basically every other coach besides Gailey. With rule changes, there’s about 8 other seasons that could have been possible and 4 that would have been extremely realistic to hit that 10 win Margain with modern scheduling. Context is important

 

[lv20gt]

It wasn't stupid to go with the TO. It was stupid to basically refuse to adapt as the game changed.

 

[gt02]

Serious question: Who is Quincy Avery and why should we care what he says?

Well he did win 11 both those years, so I guess we could meet in the middle and round down to 10.
