@realDonJunk @GTfanGT @DanWolken I can assure you that the Management program is no joke (2.3 gpa) but “I got out” as we say.

@GTfanGT @standeak @DanWolken HTS is still a pretty challenging major with some rigorous requirements.

It’s a unique job and Stoudamire’s theory for how to acquire talent didn’t work out. Will be interested to see what direction they go here.

@realDonJunk @DanWolken Marcus is correct, the curriculum has evolved. While still academically challenging, there are plenty of opportunities to get a world class education and compete in the ACC without having to take calculus.

@DanWolken Georgia Tech's existence as the only D1 program trying to run an actual learning institution as part of its athletics programs is just going to make this harder and harder. Recruiting at a school that requires two semesters of calculus is a handicap that nobody can overcome.

@WesDurham Wes, one of the things that has driven me crazy for a decade is free throws, we are constantly in the bottom 1/3 in the ACC except for 2021 when we won the ACC. Not the reason we won, but I wouldn’t have if we didn’t hit FTs. I blame coaching but idk if that is fair.

(2/2) That was '21 with Wright & Alvarado and the ACCT title. From 2011-2026, the Jackets have finished above .500 in the ACC, twice ('20, '21). You can flip the switch quicker today than years ago, but this is more than just "resources" now. It's about a system and a plan.

Couple notes as @GTMBB looks for new leadership. The golden era of the Jackets was Bobby Cremins run from '85-'93, where all but 1 year the Jackets finished in ACC Top 5 and went to the NCAA, including 3 ACC Tourney titles. Since 2010, the Jackets have been to NCAA...once! (1/2)

@CTTonight929 on penix and week 1: 1. If healthy, he has to play asap. Penix is “old”, need to know now 2 if he’s ready go week 1, great. Can he make it 17 games? After 57 starts (45 college, 12 NFL) he has 5 season ending injuries? If he gets hurt we are screwed anyways.

@ShannonJean Crap, missed this!!

If I lived near Atlanta, I'd be damned sure buying this $1,900 Sauna for $150 on the Costco Auction Site. Auction ends in about 2 hours! Get the link and buying tips here: shannonjean.com/auctions

@steakshapiro With all due respect, this is your worst take of all time.

Skyline Chili is simply a disaster.

@steakshapiro Met on a Thursday night in 1998 on our way from my Fraternity house at Georgia tech to 80s night at The Masquerade. We met up again that Saturday night in Athens for the Widespread Panic album release party. I’m blessed , Life together is wonderful.

Where did you meet your wife?

Someone made a 2025 College Football season montage to One Shining Moment and it’s amazing 😭

@tcaflisch The Big Chicken! You are about 5 miles from my house. Note, one of the more famous buildings designed by a @GeorgiaTech alum!

This is the craziest KFC I’ve ever seen (Marietta, GA)

@CarBusinessMan Do they measure my rage clicks when I deny targeting cookies, turn off the chat, then turn off the pop up offer all before being able to look at a photo. I still don’t understand why dealership websites have the worst shopper experience of all retail websites.

“What gets measured, gets managed” Yet, dealerships spend tens (and often hundreds of thousands) per month in advertising with some of the worst reporting you could imagine. It’s dumb. I blame ad agencies.

@CThomasRadio @929TheGame @CTTonight929 No way, you can’t guarantee a starting QB role to a qb with a history of injuries. We have no idea when he’ll be back or if he can stay healthy. Sign the best qb the budget allows if we think we can win now.

On @929TheGame 6-10 PM @CTTonight929 With most of the offensive staff now in place, we need to talk about QB1. Your calls at 404-726-0929… Poll: should Michael Penix Jr. be guaranteed to start the full season regardless of performance?

@MikeBellATL Can you trust a guy’s body after 57 career starts (45 college, 12 NFL) and 5 season ending injuries? I just can’t put my eggs in that basket. 2018: ACL tear 2019: Sternoclavicular joint injury 2020: ACL tear 2021: AC joint injury 2025: ACL injury, knee bone bruise, sprain

To me that is Arthur Blank meddling. Maybe Penix Jr. is the answer, what if he isn't? So any coaching or GM candidate is precluded from being hired if they don't think Penix Jr. is viable. He could say he believes in him leave it at that. (maybe semantics on my part)

@steakshapiro Made some skyline chili dogs at home with fresh graded cheddar and diced onions. By no means fancy, but delicious. #skylinechili

What was for dinner tonight and I am here to judge?

@patmatthews Congratulations! If you have an extra check laying around…

Sending $100M to our investors this week. All from successful exits. No secondary sales. Grateful for our investors. Humbled by the founders we back.

@davempayne Love it! I worked at Harry’s back in the mid 90’s when it was the only other option locally. Dekalb farmer’s market is a bit far but Buford Highway market is also great.

@standeak dekalb farmers market. if you like to cook, it’s the best.

my single favorite spot in all of atlanta

@jasonlk @rabois That’s a lot of miles!! I did 675 and I have no idea how I’d do nearly 1200 more. That’s extremely impressive, well done.

@rabois I ran 1,850+ miles this year but makes it hard to do much else 5 days off each year

Solid workout year. #No days off (literally).

@risasznn Please no

BREAKING: The Atlanta Hawks and point guard Trae Young are nearing an agreement on a three year, $150 million contract extension, including a player option in 2029, agent Austin Brown at Creative Artists Agency (CAA) told ESPN.

@DOrlandoAJC Stupid
