The coaches are having the players go through a full contact practice today in preparing for the Tech game. The man behind the plan appears to be the defensive coordinator.
… it appears defensive coordinator Todd Grantham may have had a say in the Bulldogs’ physical practice plan this week.
“You can do drills for (cut-blocking), but they’ve got to get out there and play,” Grantham said. “They don’t really like doing it right now that way, but that’s the way we do it, because that’s what is going to happen on Saturday. You’ve got to learn to bring your feet with you, and you’ve got to learn to get away from the guy and accelerate down the line. We’re going to do those things, and the best way to do it is live. So that’s what we’re doing right now.”
Me likee this. A lot.

“They really don’t like doing it right now..”
Good stuff. Hopefully they come out pissed off, focused, and ready to take it out on the other guys.

There is an obvious question here, but I will let it slide. Just dayum glad to see they are doing everything they can do.
Tech is probably better than Colorado.

The answer to that obvious question is: because of 2008, when EVERYBODY got injured during practice.

Hopefully this full contact in practice during game week trend will continue thru the spring and into next year, not to mention some 1st team Defense vs. 1st team Offense. GATA!!!!

yeah but he’s been living off that for 30 years while going absolutely nothing meaningful in the meantime. He’s like a c-rated actor doing d- rated movies. Plus he’s proven himself to be a smarmy, condescending asshole. That piece about Nick Fairley did it for me.

Yeah, sure. And he only completed one pass in the ’81 Sugar Bowl, let’s not forget that.

That’s an interesting argument, but UT was really not much better than Colorado when we played them.
