I wish he had staid longer at UGA but we knew he was one and done. His only year we didn't have a post-season due to COVID....

The post-pandemic seems to have been brutal on Athens independent owned restaurants. I know the Grit closed. Rising cost of doing business is making it hard. I'm sure rent downtown is really high. There are a lot of independent restaurants that have taken flight in some of the older shopping cen...

We have never done a lot with the NBA future stars we have had going back Jumaine Jones, Kentavius Caldwell-Pope, and Ant man. ...
[quote]Sounds like we have 6-7 guys transferring at the end of the year. Melendez is definitely one. Jabri is probably another. I’m VERY worried about our roster being plundered. Word is a lot of coaches want Silas badly.[/quote] Wow, that's crazy. How can any coach have success with 6-7 guys...
Nice to see the Dawgs making some noise. I seem to recall Ron Jirsa's Dawgs made the NIT semis when he had Jumaine Jones. We may have had another run in the NIT with Fox but I don't remember. Who else remembers when we had our NIT tournament appearances hung up at Stegman? We probably have more ...

re: NIT Chances Just Went Up

Posted by agentoranj1990 on 3/21/24 at 4:47 pm
it's good to see a post-season win even if it is the NIT. I wasn't sure we would even secure a bid with a 17-15 regular season record. ...
[quote]I wonder what happened to this team. They played solid the first 1/2 of season[/quote] The SEC hoops schedule is always a grind. I recall Fox having a lot of good starts then we faded out in the SEC season. There's a lot of parity, physical teams, and it's usually very tough on the road....
It doesn't look like White is the guy. He seems like a solid coach but it seems the task at hand is too heavy(trying to rebuild a big SEC school basketball program). As noted, the SEC is not an easy place to win. We need a coach who can make an impact like Harrick. The only guy I can think of in...

Here. That's funny. Yah, college football has jumped the shark. I still think we will benefit from the dysfunction. ...
It would happen in most major cities if everyone had to leave at once. And even some mid size cities. Have you guys ever tried to get out of Charleston, SC from James Island at rush hour? ...
[quote]Yay for the money but honestly don’t think it improves game experience at all. The crowd has gone more family based the last 10-12 years. The 2 drink limit is good. Hell, they still haven’t figured concessions out without alcohol. 90% of the concession workers are kids.[/quote] I agree,...

re: DeBore’s First SEC Game

Posted by agentoranj1990 on 1/22/24 at 10:05 pm
My gut is telling me that Deboer isn't going to last at Bama. Few thing said I don't think he can replicate the culture and he's not an SEC guy/coming from the PAC12. I saw in an interview that Saban is getting an office at the stadium. You don't want a legend hanging around after he retires. We...
It's just a gut feeling I have, but I don't see Debeor working out at Bama. Mainly because he doesn't have a lot of ties to the South or the SEC; he's a PAC-12 guy. I had forgotten about Franchione. Man that was a weird stint he had at Bama. He ended up leaving Bama to go to Texas A&M because the...

re: OT - Weather

Posted by agentoranj1990 on 1/16/24 at 10:45 pm
It's in the teens here in Atlanta tonight. Only problem with extreme cold is I have a heat pump. Man, when it gets below 20 my house does not heat up. Luckily not too many days/nights like this. ...
[quote]It looks like Muschamp wants to watch his younger son playing at Vanderbilt more this season. At least he will still be an analyst[/quote] Yah, that must be the case. Seems like we are seeing more younger coaches get burned out. He already had 2 HC positions that didn't turn out too well...
he looks really good for 72 and I assume he has other interest and wants to spend the time with his family in his later years....
1-19? Man, we thought Richt had a bad record against top 10 teams. Norvel didn't seem a home run replacement. I guess Bammers have accepted they are not going to find anyone that can replace Saban. I'm sure the hope is that the brand that Saban created keeps the recruiting pipeline running and he...
I lived in Greenville when the G-Braves moved there in '84. They were really popular and lot of the games had big crowds. Ironically we moved to Savannah a few years later where the AA Braves had moved from. I was surprised when they moved to Jackson. I know the Braves were not happy with the st...
I remember when the Bear retired. It's similar to that era that the next guy has to follow a legend. They had a few good years under Stallings but otherwise they had 3 decades of mediocrity where the 3rd or 4th best team in the SEC. LSU, Florida, Tennessee, and Auburn passed them. ...
