Is 2014 the best we can do?

Gawd, I am so tired of reading this type of drivel.

Somebody please explain how a range of probabilities can just be wiped out of existence on the basis of events in the past which neither restrict or predict with certainty events in the future.

This type of writing (and speaking) - the authoritative declaration - is exactly why I don't watch, listen to or read sports journalism anymore.

I'd rather argue with Stingtalkers all day long then spend 1 minute reading and refuting this crap.
 
No....we didn’t even win our conference. Great season, but not the ceiling.

Agree with 00Burdell, these type of articles are getting old. Summer camp can’t come soon enough.
 
Nobody has ever read that site anyway. The former moderator was a Freshman journalism major at UGA.
 
I mean, 2014 was a fantastic year. We finished #7 in the nation.

Can we do better? Sure, we can do six spots better.

Is it likely? No. Pretty hard to finish higher than number 7 in the nation, and that's not a Tech-specific thing.

Ya, that's basically the low-hanging fruit of what would be a better season. A repeat of 2014 but winning the conference is both better and more or less just as achievable as 2014.
 
Strangely written article. There's always hope, but look: Tech beat Clemson, Georgia, Miami and Virginia Tech that year and still didn't get all the way to the pinnacle. There are going to be seasons in the immediate future where they will likely lose all 4 of those games. Better can be achieved, but most likely not right now. Not until the program gets back on the somewhat level footing that those stepping-stone ADs pissed away over the last decade and a half. Right now, it's hard to talk about competing with Clemson and Georgia consistently over any X year period when the football program is financially trailing the Dukes and Virginias of the world.
 
So the “author” of that drivel spells his name Christoper? Never seen that before.

Christoper contradicts himself.

Texas spent the most money on athletics in 2015-16 to the tune of $171,394,287, (if you recall, they then proceeded to lose to Kansas). What I’m trying to say is that we’ll always be behind in the money game. And college football truly is a money game; you can’t be a top program without Domino’s levels of dough.

I like to support any endeavor led by a Tech person, but the content on that site is lacking in depth and originality. In a word, it is amateurish.
