Thank goodness I didn't pick them in the bowl game.

How in the world will GT find a replacement in time for the bowl game that can be as ineffective as Ball was.

Can't imagine GT being any worse at the QB position...

Did anyone, other than Tech's opponent, really want to see Ball disgrace the QB position any further?

At least this makes things easier on Chan Gailey. You know things are bad when the head coach openly admits that he is considering benching his 4 year starter at QB before the bowl game.

Ball was the main reason I picked WVU over them. This may screw up that pick if they find an actually competent QB to replace him.

I have two good friends who are Tech alums who are delighted that Ball won't be playing. One of them was over here trying to get me to open up the single-malt scotch in celebration earlier.

Mr. Ball has not exactly endeared himself to his fanbase lately.

I'd like to be the GT QB if my receiver was CJ and all I had to do was get it to him before the OLine let the D clobber me.

Speaking of Tech, I understand they have done very well recruiting this year.

Playing in the ACC and being in the middle of all those players in Atlanta, I've always thought Tech should do a little better.

Academic standards, I guess. All the players with no interest in actually going to school end up going to Georgia or elsewhere.
