Those two plays by Alexander that you highlight, French, showed me two things about our defense.
1) On the pass breakup, Alexander never quit. I've seen DBs watch an opposing receiver make a catch in the endzone within arm's reach and throw up their hands like "welp." He finished the play, and that's why he'll end up with a plaque in the DBU HOF when his time is up in the Burg.
2) On the interception, it's important (to me at least) to note that pass defense is an 11-man effort. You say Alexander was fortunate that Dadi hit Johns' arm and altered the throw. I look at it like the defensive linemen doing their job so that the defensive backs can easily do theirs.
Yea just glancing through that list shows that several of those coaches now have .500 or losing records against ranked teams now.
Love what GW did with their floor. That's an often overlooked component of an arena remodel.
The NFL draft advisory board has already met?
TODD! TODD! TODD! TODD! TODD! TODD! TODD! TODD!
Best of luck to you Kendall and thank you to all the Fuller's. BTW, I am still pissed about the Curry's, damn Greenburg!
They're both not very good.
I'm a fan of the way the defensive coaches at Tech do their homework on a kid, they don't offer because some rating service has him high or some other school has offered.
So probably not someone who is going to get an offer right now.
Do you think Jaquan is good enough that we'd offer Joshua just to land him?
Fantastic analysis.
I was impressed with Motu over the last few games. I hope it's indicative of him taking the next step. We've all been harsh on him (and deservedly so) but I hope the end result is just tempering his steel.
You mentioned in another comment somewhere that Seth Dooley has regressed. Was the play of Mihota enough to make you think we'll be okay in a post-Dadi world?
I haven't watched his film, but if he was a fit for Wiles he'd most likely have an offer. DT Jarrod Hewitt (Venice, FL) has a Tech offer and is of a similar rank. Tech's coaches do their own player evaluations.
Apparently Bucky graded higher than expected, looks like he may end up going too
Just because I've gone down the rabbit hole and found these arena renovations so fascinating, here's a couple outside of the ACC this time, and of varying sizes. I'll post more as I find them!

Check that...
heh... 'dead period'
slightly over .500 is still a lot better than .300
I dunno about you, but I've gone into the last two years nervous about an upset.

Come on. Are we really going to defend just over .500?
At a certain point we should just admit that this wasn't a bright spot.
The 6-3, 235 pound Sunshine State prospect
So, we're recruiting him to play DT then?

And, of course, Home Movies.
There are only so many times someone can ask why recruit X didn't sign with Tech right?
