FSU Preview

How do we win: Lewis Clinch must score at least 20 points. Gani Lawal must have a double-double. And a forward (e.g. Peacock or Alade) must have at least 10 points. Fouls, free throws, etc.. don't mean shit to our team. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Keep our play aggressive and mean and knock FSU off their game like we did Clemson.

How do we lose: We try to win with point guard play. Hewitt's guards are meant for two things - laying siege to the lane and defending other guards. If we can't limit our guards' turnovers, we're sunk. Half court play is not our forte...let's keep it in transition all game.

X-Factor: Paul Hewitt has coached in a lot of postseason games at Tech (26 to be exact) with a .500 record in Tech postseason since the 2001 NCAA's. Hewitt's teams are usually built for tournament play rather than regular season championships with average depth and rangey athletes.

Prediction: Tech by 3.

Clinch + Gani + Alade = Joy

Three combined for 64 of team's 86 points. Team shooting over 50% on FG's doesn't hurt. On to Florida State!

Wait! What?! There's MORE Basketball?

You mean we play basketball? Today? Oh. I thought you were kidding.
Oh wait, you were serious! Here in Atlanta? It's the ACC Tournament? No way. Who do we play again?


At least one more game on the schedule for the season. We play Clemson somewhere between 2:00-2:30 PM today. Can Tech pull of the win? We have seen stranger things happen (see last year in Atlanta....a tornado, the SEC on our court, etc) Lewis Clinch believes miracles can happen!

Either way, one member of The Legacy crew will be in attendance cheering on Georgia Tech for at least one more time this season. The winner gets F$U in the the second round, clearly an easier foe to upset than UNC, Duke or Wake Forest.

Is Michael Johnson going to have to choke a bitch?

He shaves his head, you tremble.

He also runs very fast.

GT > Mercer and Softball sweeps Grand Opening

Georgia Tech bats found a rhythm against the Mercer Bears pulling out 5 homers and 18 hits against 8 different Mercer pitchers. GT's pitching staff got in on the ass kicking striking out 10 Maconites. Wednesday brings KSU to town for baseball.

There's a shadow looming on the horizon, however...ugag reached #1 in most baseball polls this week. It's looking like it could be a top 10 danceoff when the bullfrogs come to ATL on the 25th.

Also, softball took care of business against UT-Martin. The first ever games played on the new field represent a crisp new jewel in the crown of King Radakovich.

And theLegacy Athlete of the Day goes to Kristen Adkins who racked up four hits in the first softball game including a game winning homer. She also pitched the second game, receiving a win in the record books. Pretty impressive.

Georgia Tech players play on TV and in bowl games and do not pump gas after graduation

That is all.

Tech v. Mercer at 4pm

Tech plays my little bro's college, Mercer, at 4:00pm today. The Jackets are looking to assert more of my brotherly dominance. Tech defeated Mercer at the beginning of the basketball season in dramatic overtime fashion in front of a sold out Mercer U. crowd.

Concerning baseball, Mercer is 5-5 and generally not very good. The Bears are batting 0.265 and giving up a 0.280 average to opponents. One offensive star for the Bears is Jacob Tanis who is leading the Bears with 4 homers but otherwise don't look for much production from the Bear bats.

Prediction: Tech 11, Mercer 4.
