FOOTBALL
Go vote for Tech to win the ACC................ What did Coach Gailey have to say on Saturday?........ Here are some pics...........Coach Gailey thinks it's possible for this team to reach the next level......... And judging Coach Gailey will be about more than on the field. If you want to know why Georgia Tech can NEVER be a football factory, read this article........... I guess Reggie Ball understands the key word.................. We always have to remember that these young men go through a lot more in their lives than just what happens on the field. Example - Salih Besirevic................. Note that Tight End Wayne Riles will be out most of the season recovering from surgery and back-up LB Eric Williams is out for the season................ In case you caught the Falcons / Colts game in Japan this weekend, there were 4 Jackets playing - Dez White caught a couple of passes, Levon Thomas caught a couple of passes, Keith Brooking and Nick Rogers as the LB spots. Interestingly, Dez White has become #1 on the Falcons depth chart at WR...................... Practice notes - D-Bo is really in WR shape (and claims to be over the QB thing), and this guy is one of the top vocal leaders on the offense, per Tech coaches. Tashard Choice is a very vocal player. Even a bit of a smack-talker. Might give this team a little 'tude. Kevin Tuminello played with the 1st team and looks ready to roll. Freshman Anthony Barnes, one of the gems of the new recruiting class, has been moved to OLB. He is quickly growing and will be that size. Since he'll end up there anyhow, there going to get him started early. Of course that raises some depth questions around the DB spots. Don't expect any of the new O-Line freshman to jump into the line-up. They will have a hard time breaking the 2-deep. Looked like Gary Guyton actually pushed KaMichael Hall to the 2nd team on the LB core, if you can believe that. We'll see how long that lasts. David Jordan looks like the bright spot for kick-offs, for now................. Here are some official notes.................
HOOPS
