Post-Weekend Catch-Up
A LOT happened this weekend, mainly on the recruiting front. I'll catch you up on that this afternoon. Here's some other snippets:
GT's football team is doing yoga. Why is this news-worthy? Cause it's with DIAMOND DALLAS PAGE, BABY!
Atlanta's #1 college football writer, Tony Barnhart, has 10 questions for the upcoming season. He mentions Tech a few times, and it's hard to say how much is "please the readers" homer-ism. He comments "Notre Dame will be fortunate to win at Georgia Tech on Sept. 2," and mentions Calvin Johnsons in a Heisman discussion. I agree with him that CJ "is as good as any of" the Heisman front-runners, but disagree with the follow-up "He just needs to get more touches." It is nearly impossible for a pure wide receiver to win the Heisman. I doubt Reggie could get CJ the ball enough to get him high in the Heisman voting.
Barnhart also took some time out to sit down with College Gameday co-host Lee Corso, to get a few predictions for the season. He reveals Gameday will be 2 hours (up from 90 min.), and claims the Jackets have a good chance to beat Notre Dame if they:
Former Tech wide receiver standout Kerry Watkins is experiencing solid success in the CFL.

DDP must now teach yoga... like, non-pansy yoga.

"Spend the summer figuring out how to get Calvin Johnson the ball in the Notre Dame secondary. He is the best wide receiver in college football — period.
Keep leaning on Jon Tenuta, who is one of the best defensive coordinators I've ever seen. I don't know what they are paying him, but it ain't enough."

Just read the exchange you had with the dawg fans condemning our entire fan base because of a few rotten apples. Every fan base has these type of fans. As for UGA's mythical poor fan base perhaps they remember 3 UGA fans beating 2 people into critical condition and a third one to death in Jacksonville following their annual loss to UF. It should be fresh in their minds as it just happened last year. I also remember that we used to have a huge inflatable YELLOW and black buzz in the stadium that was destroyed by angry UGA fans following UGA's 51-48 loss to Tech at BDS in '99. But I'm sure I just imagined those two, and surely they are the only two incidents in the history of UGA football where their fan's have behaved poorly.
