Having questions across both lines and at LB I’ll take a hard pass at questioning any coaching decisions this game against the number one ranked team away.

Tell me your brilliant play that would have worked against that defense wuth basically no QB. Lets hear it, genius.

Every major at Georgia Tech, which is why you'll never be able to beat people at their own game. Great athletes and calculus go together like turds and punch bowls.

This team will hopefully look much better against a team with talent more comparable. The talent gap was painfully obvious last night.

Can we please stop with academics excuses

The last 12 or so Heisman QBs with the exception of Louisville's Lamar Jackson could graduate from GT with a Business Degree or LMC Degree

The last 3 elite QBs to pass thru UGA, Fromm , Fields & Jacob Eason would have been accepted into GT as FB players and so would Clemson's DeShaun Watson & Trevor Lawrence

Academics ain't keeping GT FB from recruiting better QBs

None of that means anything if none of them want to pursue a harder major. There's all sorts of öööö I COULD do that I never WANTED to do.

That said, I agree with you that the academic excuse is tiresome.

We've always had players the level of Temple. Now we have coaches to compliment their skill set.

I'll just stay over here in the corner with my popcorn.

Anything other than shotgun handoff 3 straight times from inside the 5. And then going under center only to rollout/pass. Literally any other play sequence.

The first 2 years is more a reflection of the old coach than the new coach. Gailey left us stacked and we had a great first two years under Johnson. If we have a good first two years under Collins, I will be the first to give Johnson credit.

Now, tell us how many of ugags 2 deep on D would be able to last more than a year and graduate. Hell, they don't even graduate at ugag and don't even try the lame....well they go to the NFL early---do the math. Excuses are one thing, but legit handicaps are quite different. Keep in mind, I'm one of the most ardent---take more chances with exceptions guys around, and have been for many years.

Dont get me wrong. I was yelling at the tv then, too. I just give everyone a free pass basically.

Patrick Nix playcall decision tree

 

[Techbert]

Sean Bedford, who does color commentary of GT games and was an offensive player under CPJ, says that it takes 2 or 3 years to learn the Patenaude offense. This directly contradicts those who believe the current offense is simple. More likely, we watched players new to a complex offense execute the small part of the offense they were capable of handling, and they did so against perhaps the top defense in the land.

So given a choice between following the lead of frustrated fans lashing out at a convenient scapegoat, some of which have hidden agenda, as opposed to people who actually played football under multiple offensive schemes, I choose to listen to the people who know football.

The test will be if the offense improves and diversifies as the year goes on. This is measurable and a lot cleaner than Red Queen Off With Their Heads knee-jerk reactions as a basis of firing coaches.
