    No lie. Nostalgic for a time that no longer exists and never will again.

    There is no “our” team. Those days are gone. College football is nothing but a vehicle for gamblers.

    It could be that there‘ll come a day when it’ll be hard to identify an athlete worthy of being inducted into Tech’s hall of fame. Nobody will have the resume or stats to deserve it. Oh I guess we’ll lower the standards someday because participation should count for something.

    We may not have seen the last of Grubbs. He’ll probably end up on a team we’ll have to play next year.

    Re: Transfer Portal 2023

    Sanders tells Colorado players to get into the portal. Says he's bringing smart & tough guys from Jackson State, most of the positions are already spoken for, so adios! Jump in the portal. He also chastised them for being losers for two decades and the fans, alums, and supporters of CU deserve better.

    Alrighty then...

    Prime is already ruffling enough feathers that if he starts having real success, the investigators will set up camp around Boulder.

    Haynes King, Kedon Slovis, Clemson QB in the portal, we should be able to pick up a QB.

    I’m not going to go looking, but you have to wonder how many of those players had FBS offers and how many would get FBS offers even now. Probably not many.

    Re: Transfer Portal 2023

    So. we just lost our best player to the portal.

    If nothing else, this makes it easy now. Cumby can now take some risks in recruiting and the transfer portal. He can either let this "Grubbs news" bury him and his career, or he can say "screw that", get off his ass and flood LA Tech with quality and edge recruits. Nobody's position is safe. There are no protected players or positions at LA Tech. But there's a lot of "playing time" to promise new recruits if you need to do so.

    Burn this one to the ground, and start over. BUILD WHAT YOU WANT, Cumby. This probably needed to happen anyway.

    To our ADMINISTRATORS: This is what happens when schools let someone like Skip Holtz hang around far too long and destroy the roots of a good program. LA Tech fans figured this out way back in 2016 and 2017. That's when fans started voting with their feet and boycotting JAS games because they HATED the Skip Holtz "style of play" and did not like J'Mar Smith at QB. It's a fact. You can trace all of today's problems back to 2016 & 2017. The JAS crowds have continued to get smaller and smaller ever since. The fans figured it out a long tine ago. Why didn't our administration?

    I get it about how important it is to have a really good and competent QB. What I’d prefer to portal transfer guys who may or may not be good one after another every year or two is to be able to develop those kinds of players. We’ve got QBs on the bench and more recruited QBs coming in so let’s stick with what we’ve got and help them be their best. Why would a recruited QB come here if we’re constantly kicking them to the curb for some other team’s deserter?

    That Clemson QB sucks. He's practically being run out of town by Dabo Swinney.

    Dumb and Dumber… Reneau followed by Guice. It’s like the Valdez’s captaincy… a floating disaster looking for a rock to run into.

    LOL! Yea, he sucks bad. Dabo has been taking heat for sticking with him so long.

    Well, immediately after Clemson's ACC Championship game win, Swinney bragged on the freshman QB Cade Klubnik, named Klubnik the starter for Clemson's upcoming Orange Bowl game against Tennessee, and even told everybody within earshot that Klubnik is the future of Clemson football.

    HAHA! That's a pretty definitive sign that it's time for Uiagalelei to get out of town.

    After struggling early in Saturday night’s ACC Championship Game against North Carolina, Uiagalelei was replaced by freshman Cade Klubnik, who guided the Tigers to scores on four straight possessions en route to a 39-10 victory the Tar Heels.
    Clemson coach Dabo Swinney confirmed after the game that Klubnik will be the starting quarterback in the Orange Bowl against Tennessee on Dec. 30.
