Honestly if any sidewalk fans are on the fence on becoming a fan and they read this thread I can guarantee they would be turned off by our fans and choose a different team.
There's a difference between being different and being stand offish which we have a reputation for. This thread just cements that.I appreciate ALL fans, but if they are turned off by the fact that GT is a different place, then I am not sure they would want to be a GT fan to begin with.
How is being proud of standing for high ideals standoffish? And if it is, I'm all for standoffish. Btw, winning the right way is the hard way, but it's so much more rewarding, imo.There's a difference between being different and being stand offish which we have a reputation for. This thread just cements that.
Anyone else starting to wonder if Gold1 is a troll?

???Self-deprecating humor?
I'm sure that was made in jest, but just to be sure, I think Gold1 and I disagree on too many things for that to even come close to being true.No but I wouldn't be surprised if he's a @Supersizethatorder-mutt alter.
We are the only P5 football STEM school.

I bet we could whip the heck out of the Colorado School of Mines football team!!!
No, he is a Tech Fan who wants to see Tech win. I don't agree with every things that he says but I really think he is a fan.Anyone else starting to wonder if Gold1 is a troll?

Actually, I think we could turn this into an advantage, or at least more fully discover its silver lining, by expanding our recruiting scope. We need go national and identify and target talented high-school football players who want to major in STEM subjects. As the only power-5 team among the top-25 STEM schools, we could get them to come to Georgia Tech. It would take a big boost to our recruiting budget, but I think that's where we need to invest. I know I've said this before but darn, it seems to me the answer to our recruiting problems.

I have been fairly engaged on this thread, and quoted / responded to your posts so wanted to respond to this one. I don't think I have been stand offish, but if I have let me clarify my position. I believe the mission of Georgia Tech is to educate first and foremost the students enrolled on our campuses. I want to be competitive in everything we do, but would not trade our academic responsibility for a single extra win.There's a difference between being different and being stand offish which we have a reputation for.

Pretty sure it's like this at the Service Academies.
Talk more about this, please.Your right that GT has some standoffish fans and sidewalk fans are treated differently than at other schools, but i don’t consider this thread to be an example of that at all.
The class in question was at 6PM. Is that considered an evening class? The article said that practice started at 3:45, and that TM and Will had completed 16 of 23 practice periods. How long does a practice session generally run?Service academies don't USUALLY offer evening classes.
