    Yeah, all of our players could go there, it's just a short walk...
    In the past GT football has often been JUST GOOD ENOUGH TO BREAK YOUR HEART!

    I believe we are on the way to getting where we all want to be - Win Championships, and be more competitive with UGa and Bowl Games.

    QB's looking up, WR's coming along(?), Welcome CTR, CMP and new AD, We have some good recruiters with a good class coming, Stamps back to ST's, all 3 phases should be better this year than last. We have team speed to match anyone we play.

    What's not to like?

    What usually happens is more bums hanging around looking for a handout and harassing people. Have you checked out McCamish Pavilion after a game?

    I got panhandled sitting on the benches in front of my daughter's dorm after the Miami game.

    Nothing like gameday to bring out the riff-raff...

    And yeah, the hall of fame is only a "short" walk from campus (through one of the sketchier neighborhoods in the area). Not really "on campus"...

    That would be a great place for Vad to get the first Heisman at GT since Heisman was here!

    Well Yuke, the college football hall of fame is all about tradition, maybe a return to traditional uniforms . Maybe raising Tech's profile in the city and state by the Tech - Heisman connection, I'm always surprised at how many people don't know that Heisman coached at Georgia Tech. Tech has 12 players and 4 coaches in the CHF.
