I was out-of-town this weekend visiting the mom-in-law, checking out Charleston a bit, then stopping by the Columbia SC Zoo on the way back home with the wife and girls. In the process, I missed just about everything Georgia Tech related, including the following:
HOOPS GANG LOSES ANOTHER
The men's hoopsters lost on the road to VaTech, in what apparently was a fairly unimpressive outing. Fouls galore, terrible rebounding, and proof that great Point Guard play isn't always the answer to what ails you.
At this point, I'm watching games because when the season's over...... it's over. The games left are numbered. Not many left for guys like Jeremis and Anthony. Oh well. Guess it's time to move on.
LADY'S LOSE TO UGAg
Our #1 ladies tennis team lost to...... Georgie.. Great... Just gotta love that..... Of course they have a top 5 team also. Still, we lose enough to those guys. Still hurts no matter the sport.
BEESBALL SWEEPS PENGUINS
The bright spot of the weekend was an opening series sweep of Youngstown State, in which our pitching staff gave up one run in 27 innings. Just an amazing outing and a great way to start off the season. Hitting has been a little spotty with a number of guys left on base. However, it's way early to start worrying about that. Pitching and defense. That's what's supposed to win championships. Nice going.
LADY HOOPSTER REACH MILESTONE
For the first time in school history, the ladies win 20 games in back-to-back seasons with a win over Clemson. Way to go!!!
NFL COMBINE
Tashard Choice ran a 4.54 in the 40 at the combine. Not bad and about what I'd expect. He never had that break-away 2nd gear kind of speed. However, speed ain't the whole picture, and to judge TC on his 40-time would be serious mistake. TC's quicker than he is fast and he's tough to tackle in space. There's a very good chance he goes by the 3rd round............ by the way, Darren McFadden ran a 4.33 officially. Sick. More Combine info here.
Evidently Durant Brooks has been the most impressive punter, displaying some serious directional punting. Should be interesting to see where he is taken.

1) Is there any talk of Hewitt leaving for the St. John's job after this season?
2) Do you happen to know what his current salary is this season?
we HAVE to get Dean Keener back. DRad better open up the bank to buy this guy and get him to return as CPHs lead assistant.
I have to say, when Anthony and Jeremis leave it will be with mixed impressions left behind. I think Anthony Morrow is just not a great athlete. He seems solid enough, and is certainly a good shooter, but lacks strength and toughness. I bet he will make a fine coach some day. He seems very intelligent and the CPH and staff really like him personally.
Smith apparently has little other than strength and toughness. He is any better now than he was a end of season freshman? I watched him Saturday and wondered why he gives up so much underneath. When he came to Tech I thought he would be certain NBA pick. Now I hope he can get into grad school.
