The Alamo Bowl

Anybody have any thoughts on the actual game? I don't think I saw Tech play all year and I know absolutely nothing about this year's Michigan State team. I seem to recall something about some MSU players being suspended? Who is the favorite in this game? How do you see things turning out?

With all of the Leach controversy, I expect Tech either to play a great game or stink up the place and get embarrassed.

I tend to agree. It's hard not to imagine this affecting Tech. Which way it will affect them is harder to say.

It will affect them one way or the other. Tech football will fall back to the pre-Leach years, a lot of 3-7, 2-8, 4-6

Is the Potts kid still QB at Tech?

What a bold prediction. LOL

Who knows how this will affect Tech, but the fans at the game will get their chance to respond.


As soon as we know the cameras are on the game we need the crowd to yell "Bring back Leach" and repeat over and over. This will be even before the game. After the Raiders score -- break it loose again . Make it thunder. At half time while they are showing the field and crowd as back ground -- repeat . "Bring Back Leach" over and over. At the end of the game -- take the field "WE WANT LEACH!! This will be devastating to Hance and Myers but they will know it is just starting. Don't let ESPN ignore you!!! This is your chance. We love Ruffin. This is not anti Ruffin. Let's ROCK Raiders. Leach for AD!!!

IMO Tech is traditionally a major head case.

So, I expect them to be pantsed.

Pantsed?

Head case, really?

Yes, until Hance or Myers tell them otherwise. Maybe Adam James will be the starting quarterback

Heard yesterday, from a Tech student's Dad. Potts will not be back next season. He will be attending either med or law school.
Anybody else heard this?

How many years of eligibility does he have left? I always figured he would end up at ACU.

He has one year. He could play next year at ACU immediately because it is D II

despite my opinion on Leach I hope TT comes together and kicks butt in the game

And ... Tech probably isn't Cincy.

This game is probably going to be really ugly. At least, that is my expectation.

[Eagle 1]

I wonder who will call the offensive plays?

Might throw one of these in there too, "ESPN, FIIIRRE JAMES, FIIIRRE JAMES"
That might let ESPN know just how some of the Tech fans feel:devil: Especially after Adam(I'm not getting enough playing time whine bag) left the media room and went to the visitor locker room electrical closet & took the video to solidify his "STORY".

On another note. If Adam James was such a STUD in football, why didn't Craig move them to the SLC school district? :thinking:
I'm not bashing Celina, I'm just saying, why put him in a 3A school not a big 5A where his name would be in the national scene when he's sitting on the bench during a state championship or televised game because Trey Newton is getting all of the hype??:thinking:

Weather it be about Leach, James or the Adm. I hope they do the same thing. If they don't, IMO Tech will go in the tank for the 3-5 years and turn back into the 4-8 or 6-6 team they were before Leach arrived. I hope I'm wrong.

If they can turn in any of those records, it's better than I expect

Losing 8 players 2 months ago is a lot easier then losing your coach a week before the game.

Who could approve of the Coach's actions if this were your son???

Now if by chance my son did do that, he would be most appreciative if being placed in a dark room were the extent of his punishment.
My son has been taught to show up on time, in appropriate gear, and be prepared to give 100% at all times. He will not earn a football scholorship anywhere but he will be well equipped for life.
What would your employer do if you showed up for work in inapropriate attire and were lazily going about your tasks?? Dark room sounds good to me.
:D
