Back to the old ways, good offense, terrible defense.

Damn you beat me by 4 minutes. Didn’t see this post.

That makes it interesting. It’s like the old JoeHam days when we’d win 45-42.

A little early to be tracking these stats. Only two games, with one of them being against a greatly undersized cupcake (with a 2 yr losing record).
Hopefully, the offense can consistently give us performances like the 2nd quarter of the Loohvul game.
If so, we can then start comparing to Joe Ham days.

It's early still, but all the same I'd rather be #9 than #109.

What I like more than this is the number of skill players we have touching the ball in both games so far now.

ETA: Perhaps this is the biggest difference between King and Pyron at this point. King is like a really good PG back there. He seems, so far, to be very good at finding ways to distribute the ball.

The CPJ days, too. Fun eras of football

Most everyone has played cupcakes. Uga has played two of the biggest cupcakes of all and they aren’t ahead of us. That’s a good thing.

So, we’re all agreed… we’re seeing progress?

That applies to most of the last 25 years.

I'd sit in the stands sometimes in those days and think "oh no, we scored too quickly"

King sees the field about as good as any Tech QB I’ve seen in a very long time. Maybe ever - ever for me goes back to early 80s.

Resist the temptation to compare Joe Ham and Godey as seniors to King as basically a sophmore. King, as a sopmore would smoke either one of them as a sophmore.

I would be very interested to know what some of the folks who have been around for a while think - adjusting for experience.

Seems to me he goes thru his reads and checkdowns about as fast as a senior. He’s got some maturing to do but we may have hit the jackpot with this kid.

He seems close to the QB that A&M kept. Hopefully Pyron hangs around here, he has some time afterwards.

I keep seeing people say this, but King is only one year ahead of Pyron.

I think you'd have a hard time putting him with Shawn Jones, Joe Hamilton, and Goose Godsey at this point, but that's some pretty high-level company right there.

King is basically a sophomore so for a fair comparison, you have to roll back those three guys to their sophomore year. Hard to do that for me too but I specifically recall people thinking Hamilton should be benched during his second year.

Whatever we do, we must spend the money to keep the King, Weinke, and Faulker triumvirate in tact.

Eh, Jones won a title as a sophomore and Charlottesville...as a sophomore.
