Totally not just you. I’m sure he’s a nice guy to little kids and stuff but overall he seems like kind of an ass. With his Fish Fry and other comments, his hatred of having to recruit, and his strange arrogance about only needing one small play sheet he overall seems not cut out to be a power 5 head coach. I love that he’s lazy about recruiting yet has his policy that guys who commit aren’t allowed to take visits to other places. As much as I give Clemson and FSU crap about playing in the ACC, he’s darn lucky that Tech hasn’t been thrown out of it for bringing nothing to the table.
If I ever had to learn such crap like the merits of a B-back or A-back and got excited over signing a 3star athlete(Vad Lee) I’d probably give up following college ball.
Take a quick trip over to a Tech message board and I think you'll see otherwise. They think about us way more than we think about them. I honestly think Tech fans enjoy a UGA L more than a GT W. Most of them are hoping and praying that UF and UT can gain some relevance again.
Yes, well....I actually know a lot about the triple-option, what makes it work, what can stop it, and how to have a passing game while using it....Because my old high school ran the Split-back Veer for 27 years.
Apparently it’s a thing of beauty when run well if you know a lot about football. I just prefer to watch more modern schemes.
I really don't share the disdain many other Dawg fans have for Tech. Maybe it's because I have a brother who went to Tech and he's a long suffering fan. He is neutral to UGA till we play each other, which is basically my thinking as well.
We do like to rag on each other like Bugs and Leg Humpers though.
Running the ball from Tech's triple option is fun to watch when it's working against some team other than ours.
Interesting that a couple of y’all know Tech fans that are indifferent towards us.
I work with plenty and they take THWG seriously. Little brother complex through the roof.
Exactly. The hate that most Tech fans have towards UGA is stronger than anything we have towards another program.
Sanford stadium was funded and built directly based on hate for GT. From the wiki article:
"Sanford wanted Georgia to have a venue that would equal Tech's, and the "final straw" came in 1927 when UGA's undefeated (9–0) team traveled to Tech and lost 12–0. It was alleged that Tech watered the field all night to slow UGA's running backs. Afterwards, Sanford vowed to "build a stadium bigger than Tech", and play the game at Athens every other year."
Correct Borodawg. When I logged on this AM, it seemed like there were 100 threads in Chinese. Thought the nerd joke was funny, but glad to see we are cranking up a little old fashioned hate here in Sep, anyway!! Now, if the Dawgs can “guarantee” a miserable weekend for the Rooster fans, we’ll be rolling in ‘18.
