Some Tech news...

Well it's finals week next week at GT and I just wrapped up 4 presentations and major term projects this week and I have a final EVERY day next week. So one of two thing will happen: I feel very productive and actually study OR you will see long dragged out posts about anything and everything. My money is on the second.

Well a couple of days after Thad put his name in the draft, Crit followed suit. Not looking good for next years team. I hate college basketball offseason because you never know whats going to happen....and its hard to root for players because the best will be gone before you have any lasting memories. I wish the NBA had similar rules to MLB...where you can be drafted directly out of high school, but if you enroll in college, you have to stay for three years.

Even with both players gone next year, GT will have a pretty deep team except for one position:PG. Of course that's the most important position and is the difference between a horrible team and national championship.

In Calvin news, it is reported that Arthur Blank has told the Falcons GM to do whatever it takes to draft Calvin. A lot of people are loving the idea of Calvin playing in the ATL, which would be awesome, but I'm not getting my hopes up. I am thinking its most likely a bluff to make TB pay more to trade up to No. 2.

I did have information months ago that the Falcons were going to trade Schaub and picks for the no. 1 spot, but that deal fell through.

With the draft in a few days...I might as well predict where my boys will be drafted:

Calvin...No 2.
Scott...3rd Rd.
Hall...5th
Anoai...7th
