    Elliot was just about the worst player on the field yesterday. Turnovers and he looked slow when he tried running the ball himself.

    Re: Spring Practice

    I thought J'Mar looked like he looked most of last year. He can throw the ball a mile, but he's inaccurate and struggles with what should be routine by now. Elliot seemed to do well with timing throws, but he's limited physically (we left before the interceptions). I thought Walker looked like he might be the best of the three while I was watching, but nobody really shown (shined?) at QB. This is not unique to us. A lot of QBs look bad in Spring ball.

    McKnight is too slow for the read option. Period. The same was true of Craft last year. I don't know why we insist on running it with personnel that it doesn't fit. Dancy looked decent, but I thought Tucker was the most explosive back. I thought Powell and Belton looked good at WR. I don't recall noticing anybody else. As others have said, some of J'Mar's best throws were dropped.

    The few special teams that were on display were ROUGH.

    I didn't notice much on Defense other than the fact that #21 is at another level as far as being a competitor.

    Punting was better than the FG and extra point kicking.

    is there anyway to block a poster? been giving you benefit of doubt in homes you would post something worth reading but I officially give up.
    Terry was in town for alumn on Friday and Saturday-- my grandson and I were in new broadcast room for early part of Spring Game--my grandson (10) had more information about our team than most folks-- went to baseball game after ( ugly game)-then Mudbugs playoff game Saturday night. posts like yours are pretty much worthless-- at least half dozen dumb posts about Terry --you do not even come close . so for you to come close in future lame post-

    At Tech 42 picks 39 tds
    NFL 210 picks 212 regular season TDS
    super bowls 4 picks and 9 tds

    good luck in future wasting our time

    consistently punting ball around the 10 yard line. Heck, we missed extra points and did not have the distance on a 40 yard line attempt --spooky

    for what its worth Walker had shoulder issue--he only threw 5 passes and pulled -he was the buzz after-- many of us went to baseball game after and he was the main topic ( other than wr and qb issue). I will never question Tim and Skip but as just a fan -- Walker looks like the real deal. Beside the 2 lame picks in red zone our backup qb had a third close call trying to throw ball out of bounds - Blue team dropped it
    Connor Taylor had 5 tackles in limited action --

    like your post - everything made sense to me which should upset you ---

I am a lifetime democrat because that is how yo had to be in LA years ago. last vote by partyline was JFK ( most catholics did--especially those of us in seminary) -- I learned over years that chicken in every pot (LBJ) helped very few and created dependency . spent 18 yrs floating around military bases and voted independent because I find Trump offensive and going to hurt during mid term ( do not have time to explain mid term to you) - I have been on campaign committee for Don Hathaway - our democratic Sherriff and die hard Tech supporter and Republic mayor. YOU really show your stupidity when you assume us old white folks are out of touch-- I pay for my BLACK granddaughters private Catholic school in Baton Rouge so she can reduce the issues she is exposed to. For 35 years I have been delivering food threw Christian services -a Court appointed special advocate for 10 years and president of Kiwanis for 15 years. why mention? because most of the volunteers are OLD WHITE GUYS -- I often disagree with older white posters but knowing background of many I respect them --


    New York times research has shown that 66% of modern generation ( 18-34) have no idea of what Holocaust ( over 6 million jew-gays-catholics) gassed . 72% thought Hitler took over by force ( so you will know--he was elected) -- going to leave it at that- when I was your in 20s we lost friends to Viet Nam and majority of the old white guys you choose to ridicule served so you could be whiney poster--which is easier than saying it in front of us-- Now that is "let it out bud" --

    I've noticed the "Tim and Skip" mention a few times. Are you suggesting our HC, Skip consults Tim before making a decision and that Tim agrees that Smith is our best option?

    poor-poor HogDawg--lover of twisting posts--reason I am #2 disliked poster on BBB-- I am a realist -- we had 75 players hurt and a transition year-- lost too many 1 point games and somehow you assume those of us die-hard supporters were "extremely happy"-ANYONE WHO KNOWS US DIE HARDS WERE CONTENT" just living in there own goofy world-- when you support a program for 52 plus years with assets and physical support you do not be EXTREMELY HAPPY ( what a goofball) -- you are a realist and accept that whining never fixes anything -- we all saw your pick for QB Saturday--want to post about that?? Guess what -- I am hoping for great year --we have 4 tough games and I accept that-- no matter how year goes I will be back next year hoping for great year and you will continue to be ripping team, coaches and fans who REFUSE to post nothing but negative -twisted crap-- switched my logo to Sunshine Alfred E Newman to warn folks there will be exaggerated support of program--its who I have been for 50 plus years--
