my oldest been going to games in Upper North with me since she was about 3. We are two seasons away from potentially seeing her in the student section from our seats in Upper North. She's applying next Fall.
im not worreid about that .. i knew id get negativity if i posted that. have some faith folks.
Wish you the best of luck. A reminder I’ll give you is that almost all competent students can go anywhere and transfer in. Many in my math department did the same. Degree says Tech on it.
Well we disagree. As for South Carolina, can you name any other “event” outside of Clemson and South Carolina football that folks attend in mass? There are things in Atlanta every week so to equate South Carolina is not being honest. When I attended the Ole Miss game I was invited in to a tent by some Ole Miss fans. They basically said the 6-7 weekends of Ole Miss football is their entire year of sports and they wished they had other options like the Braves, etc. They said this is why they love and show up even when they are mediocre. Nothing else to attend.
Absolutely true. But they also are outliers. These are young adults who want to be accepted. I have seen GT family after GT family in my local network in Albany, Thomasville, Valdosta who fall away from GT when their qualified kids don’t get in and end up at other schools. I talked to one kid who I coached youth sports who was a huge GT fan all because his family were dogs. What a kid. Of course, he got denied at GT and got in to UGA. He told me at graduation he was going to transfer to GT after his freshman year but not to tell his parents and that he had already talked to GT admissions about a transfer, etc. When I saw him at Christmas break he had joined a frat and found a cute little gal and thus ended a future GT family. When I asked him about GT he simply said he had to have a life and moved on. Meanwhile his spot at GT was probably given to a lifelong Michigan fan who will spend the next 50 years going to the big house instead of Bobby Dodd.
10-4 and thank you!
Most they do this transfer in from small nothing schools. I went to GGC (Georgia Gwinnett College) and the transfer acceptance rate was high. If you have an experience outside of that it makes sense not to.
Come on. The population between the 2 cities and states is massively different.
Maybe they can’t get up in front of a crowd?
Yep. I’m still bringing the family in from NC for the Syracuse game.
I’m betting the cars, the kids, and the trailer rent on the GT moneyline next week. I bet the moneyline last year at +900 and won. I bet the moneyline against UM two weeks ago at +820 and won.
Rules Jr. got conditional acceptance. He went to Southern Poly for a year then attended GT. He didn’t get all bitch hurt about it. He now has one of the best AE degrees in the world.
Yea the most in the UN I’ve seen in a few years.
This is correct. It has taken years of erosion of a fanbase to get to this point. It is sad that people right down the street don’t give a crap about what happens at Bobby Dodd Stadium. This has been death by a thousand cuts
I noticed yesterday at the game that the Georgia state flag is no longer flown at BDS. It used to be flown under the US flag. I missed the.team running on the field yesterday. Have they returned to the tradition of having one platyer carry the US flag and one rhe Georgia state flag? Perhaps your theory is correct. If we see.the United Nations flag flying at Grant Field we’ll know you’re a prophet and you’re theory is proved.
Six home wins requires scheduling at least six home games, though. Most “football” schools schedule seven. Meanwhile, we’re scheduling five and selling one to the Benz. Everybody knows the reason why, but celebrating the winningest field while peddling home games away is ööööing hilariously ironic.
Sounds like a perfect opportunity for a teaching moment. Worked out really well for my son. But maybe he was more serious about it.
It’s not the schedule, nor whether or not GT plays 1 game at MBS that’s the problem. Losing 1 game a year at BDS in front of 35-40k isn’t what you’re truly mad about. Let’s be honest here….You would not care one bit if GT was 5-2 right now.
