Tech’s Joshua Nesbitt: The most valuable collegiate player?

Four Hokies on him, and Joshua Nesbitt's still not down. (AJC photo by Johnny Crawford)

It takes at least four Hokies to handle Joshua Nesbitt. (AJC photo by Johnny Crawford)

Ankle surgery having precluded his participation in spring practice, Joshua Nesbitt had the chance to study Georgia Tech from the sideline. And what he saw, he said, was a team just as talented as last season’s ACC champs. Which is, not to put too fine a point on it, a big ol’ fib.

Because the Jackets with Nesbitt on the sideline aren’t one-tenth as impressive as Tech is when he’s on the field. He’s not quite the best player in college football, but no one means more to a program than this quarterback does to his.

Paul Johnson’s stylized option-based spread starts with Nesbitt, and often it ends there. He has to make every read, every pitch, every throw. He also has to take 30 hits a game, and therein lies the issue. With backup Jaybo Shaw having transferred to Georgia Southern, Tech can’t afford to lose Nesbitt for a single snap. But even a man as conspicuously robust as this — he appears bigger than his listed 217 pounds — is going to feel some pain.

The good news: Nesbitt said last week he feels better than he has “since high school.” The bad: Every Tech opponent won’t be so concerned with defending the option this season as with simply smacking Nesbitt.

But here’s the thing: Nesbitt is capable of smacking back. He has a linebacker’s approach to playing quarterback. If you come hard at him, he’ll come harder at you. Apologies in advance for again using the I-word — “indomitable” — but with Nesbitt no other adjective is half as applicable.

Said Nesbitt, speaking of Tech: “We understand what it means to fight until the clock says zero.”

Much of this comes from Pugnacious Paul, the head coach. Nearly as much emanates from the quarterback he inherited on arrival, a young man after PJ’s fighting heart.

And these Jackets, picked to finish third in the ACC Coastal Division, figure to need all the orneriness they can muster. They lost four gifted juniors to the NFL, and their road schedule — trips to Kansas, North Carolina, Clemson, Virginia Tech and Georgia — is a fright. Or it would be, were Nesbitt the sort to get nettled.

“People are looking for us not to be the same team,” Nesbitt said. “We know we’ve got a bull’s eye on us. … We need to prove everybody wrong.”

Someone asked if Johnson imparts that very message to his players. “Only every time we talk,” Nesbitt said, and then he laughed.

Another source of some amusement: The two letters at the shank of his first name. He was born Joshua Leonard Nesbitt, but for 21 years he answered to Josh. He and his mother decided to ask Tech to list his name as Joshua for his senior season: “More businesslike,” he said.

Which isn’t to say everyone has gotten the memo. Heck, sometimes his mom even slips and forgets the “u” and the “a.” “It doesn’t faze me,” said Nesbitt, who isn’t easily fazed.

And what does Tech’s coach call his quarterback? “He can call me whatever he likes.”

We know Johnson has the utmost faith in his offense — he should; he designed the thing — but even a man as proud as PJ will acknowledge that an option cannot run itself. Somebody has to take the ball from center and send it the right way and absorb those hits, and there’s nobody on Tech’s campus who can do it the way Nesbitt does.

Still, the cult of Joshua hasn’t yet found national traction. We saw it again this week when the assembled ACC media voted him sixth in its preseason player-of-the-year balloting. Yeah, that’s part of being an option quarterback in 21st century football, but still … sixth!

Maybe his low standing had something to do with Nesbitt skipping the ACC’s media days in Greensboro. Both Tech and conference officials implored him to come, but he was adamant. He had to attend a family reunion in Miami. (And no, it wasn’t an agent-funded soiree.)

And there’s just another reason to like Joshua Nesbitt. In an age where hype knows no restraints — hello, LeBron James — the most valuable Jacket had better things to do than talk about himself. Talk about a throwback.

Good blog. If we lost Nesbitt we would be screwed. There is no way our backups can reproduce the same kind of leadership and decision making he does on the field. The only reason Tech fans have not been bent out of shape about losing Dwyer and Thomas is because we still have the most important player coming back. Hopefully whoever takes over for him next year is learning all they can from him.

Most valuable collegiate player – Far From It. He may be Georgia Tech’s MVP but I believe anyone could run this team if they have a week or 2 to get ready for an opponent. He’s a system QB and I’m sure Tech has a couple more guys that can play just as good, IN THE SYSTEM.

Thanks for the great write up MB. I can only hope the younger QBs are learning from Nesbitt on how to handle themselves on and off the field. This guy is the heart and soul of the team and has the mindset of a champion. There is nobody I’d rather have with the ball in his hands when the game on the line.

I’d take him over everyone else in the nation to run this offense. He is making better decisions everyday, is as tough and competitive as they come, and he led the nation in yards/attempt last year. Seems to me that is about as valuable as a quarterback can be. Go Jackets.

All you need to see is Nesbitt ripping the ball back from the FSU player last year. that says it all. to you dawgs your past 3 QB’s would have waved at the defender has he ran the other way. Nesbitt Laughed and said GIVE ME MY DAMN FOOTBALL BACK you FSU P…Y!

Let’s Go, Jaybo Shaw had several chances to play in the system and he never ran the team anywhere near as well as Nesbitt. He also came from a high school that ran the same offense so he had plenty of experience in it. In 2008 Calvin Booker got a start and almost lost to Gardner Webb. Its not as easy to run this offense as you think.

Nesbitt is very valuable. However, I disagree that we cannot afford for him to miss snaps. Since he was out all summer, the back up got plenty of experience. If Tech gets a comfortable lead in any game, expect to see him on the field.

Does Nesbitt wear QB shoulder pads, RB pads or what? Back in the old (very old) days, I wore lineman’s pads, because I played DE more than OE. One of our ends wore back’s pads. He could extend his arms, while I could hardly extend my arms vertically more that 90 degrees at the elbow. Without pads, I could throw > 50 yards in the air, but with pads, about 15 with any kind of accuracy.

Having played at the highest level, as a third string tight end on one of the better junior varsity teams in South Georgia, I have extensive experience in breaking down game film that the average blogger might not have.

I’ll avoid using terminology that may confuse the average blogger, but suffice to say, based on my breaking down of GT game film, is that Nesbitt is what is known as a “dual threat” meaning he can both run with the ball and pass the ball.

One key to look for is the number of times he will fake a handoff, then keep the ball for himself on a running play. A lot of average fans underestimate this aspect of his game, but it’s an integral part of what makes him effective.

He could be considered the MVP depending on how you look at it. Yes, because of that Mickey Mouse offense they run, it is centered around the mobility of the QB. He does indeed have mobility. If he were to go down, who the h*** does Tech have to execute that Mickey Mouse offense behind him?

When he is gone, Tech will be right back where they belong……. un-talked about.

*** Before ANY Tech Nerds sit here and say “is that the same “Mickey Mouse” offense that averages 400 yard rushing a game….. blah blah blah”…… understand that if ANY team did nothing but run the ball with trick plays EVERY. SINGLE. DOWN., they too would have padded stats.

Bottom line, I really really really hope Nesbitt gets hurt, badly, early in the season, which is VERY possible considering he will run the ball 61.7% of the time. Unfortunately there just arent any big LBs in the ACC to do it….. but somebody will hopefully thump his skull or land on that ankle in a big way.

Am I classless??? Absolutely!! So don’t bother telling me I am. I do NOT speak for all of UGA fans, just myself, who hates Tech and Nesbitt beyond belief. GO DAWGS!!!!!

Glory glory, perhaps it would help if you understood the Tech offense. It’s based on what’s called an “option” in that the quarterback can either hand it off to a fullback, keep it, or pitch it to a trailing back.

It only looks like a “trick play” to those not well versed in offensive philosophy, but it is actually based on set plays that the team practices during the week.

Did you all notice that 7 of the first 8 comments were from Dawgturds? I was in the FSU stadium when Joshua took that ball back from the FSU defender (yes, it was right in front of me!) The whole FSU crowd lit up when the defender picked up the missed pitch….and you heard 85,000 people go “U-h-h-h-h” when Nesbitt hit the guy and took it back. Thanks for your interest (obsession?), Dawgturds, but we’ll keep Joshua over ANYONE you can name.

Actually, Ga Tech’s picked to finish #6 in the ACC by the most accurate experts in college football including Athlon, Phil Steele, just to name a few. #3? By whom? No one with any kind of accuracy track record is picking Ga Tech to do anything.

The triple option flops because:
1) QB can get injured easity 9see last year’s Georgia game)
2) Weak on passing (Tech ranked last in NCAA in passing)
3) Weak on unpredictable (there are only 2 plays, option left, option right, dive, keep, or pitch. Easy to defend, which is why Paul Johnson is 2-5 in Bowl games, any decent Bowl team with 2-4 weeks to prepare, dominates PJ’s high school gimmicky offense. PJ does well against the bad teams though, or when teams only have 1 week to prepare for the triple option, because so few teams run it, for reason mentioned above.

A couple of things Mark B,
1st – we will not miss Jaybo in the least. Jaybo saw the writing on the wall, that he was going to be beaten out as #2 by either of the other QB’s on the roster, so he transferred. Tevin Washington is going to see plenty of PT this year.
2nd – If the other teams key on Joshua too much, there will be a lot of long runs by the A & B backs. That’s just the way this O works. Joshua (I’m still getting used to adding the u & a) had a lot of runs last year because the D was focusing on stopping Dwyer.

I think if you look at Nesbitt’s and Tebow’s stats from last season you will see that Joshua was not far off the pace of St. Timothy, who many consider the greatest college football player of all time.

It’s time Nesbitt got his due and a little national publicity. He will definitely be our most valuable player and he could be the most valuable player in the country.

My only concern about the QB is…he seems (to me) to call his own number way too much and that increases his chance of injury/fatigue. Tech has many B + A backs that can be rotated in/out but only one senior experienced QB. There is little doubt he is most valuable to Tech. Our opposition in Athens will understand just how important an experience QB can be.

Mark, the ACC can give accolades to Fsu’s Ponder and the 4 under him but at the end of the season, they will have to delete these all-ACC players and replace them with names of the winners on the GA Tech team. You 5 star teams have no excuse. Run your mouths but you still got to play the games. And Ga, with the SEC giving you a break this year without LSU or Bama, you are really going to look like buffoons if you lose to the Kentucky’s of the conference.

I am a dawg fan but I give Nesbitt his due. He runs the GT offense well, and is their most valuable player. He has also shown he can take some hits and bounce back up to keep playing.

I wish him and his team well, except for on Nov. 27. Beating an ACC champion team for our final home game would be great. My wish is to see two underfeated teams meet.

However, for UGA, the most important game of the season regular season is Oct. 30.

In passing yards, Hugo, we ranked 116th. But anyone can throw for 500 yards a game if they throw the ball 60 times. The more accurate statistic is either pass efficiency or yards per attempt (not completion). Using those statistics, our passing game rated quite well.

Actually, UGA shut it down in 2008 in the first half and while GT enjoyed success running it in the 2nd half, most of the yards came from big plays in which UGA defenders did not wrap up there opponents. So, the gameplan was there to shut it down. We just did not execute in the 2nd half.

I think you will find 4 for Tech, 1917, 1929, 1952, and 1990. There are also a few other years (like 1951) where some pollsters voted Tech number 1, but it is not considered a “recognized” NC. I think I saw two for UGAG, 1980 and 1942, although that’s the first place I have seen 1942 listed as a recognized NC for the mutts.

You are right about 1990. That was a lame comment on my part. However, the 2 NCs you had pre-WWII and the one in 1952 don’t really count by most college football fans/ experts. UGA has a pre-WWII NC too.

kevin, I tend to agree that we benefited from missed tackles on some plays (most notably on the game sealing TD by Roddy Jones). But by the same token, we simply failed to get off blocks in 2009 and watched y’all run all over our defense. I know you’re not making excuses and I applaud that. But tacking, blocking, and getting off blocks etc. are the most basic parts of the game.

You were correct in that it shows that UGAG’s all time strength of schedule ranks 2nd in the country, BUT you should have dug a little deeper. The reason it ranks that high is NOT because of the last 10 years, nor even the last 25 years. UGAG’s tough schedules were all back in the dark ages of college football—-the years you say “most college football experts” don’t count anymore. Do your research, bubba.

HI, my name is Buffoon Dog. I come on this GT blog and tell you how horrible your team is when my team sux. In 2008, we were preranked number one in country and had our cover on Sports Illustrated. But that fell through and we ended up 9-3 losing to some team called the yellow jackets and there was a freshman named Roddy Jones who rushed for over 200 yards who we couldn’t stop while our 5 star NFL guys noshow Moreno and Stafford had to take a backseat. Then in 2009, we lost 5 games including Ky and TN and had to go to a bowl in Shreveport. And in the offseason, we had some players arrested and in jail and our AD was weaving all over the road after drinking and driving with panties between his legs but I still have so much to be proud of the last two years. And even though, your team won the ACC championship by beating teams such as VT, FSU and Clemson who have their own 5 stars, I still want to come on here and tell you how your team isn’t any good because I am BuffoonDog.

Kevin,

If you look up the history of the NC, each year there are multiple teams awarded them by numerous organizations, however each year, there is always one that is listed as the consensus for that particular year. Based on this, Tech has four that are recognized and I believe 6 overall. I personally do not count these other two. If you look at the same facts, UGA has 1, 1980. In 1942, they were awarded a nc by one of the lesser voting bodies and are not considered the primary nc. So it’s either 6-2 or 4-1. I’ll abide by whichever you choose to recognize.

Do you think that just because you can convey your key to UGA losing (not tackling) into a small sentence means that it is the reason we should all believe?

Scott W., AP was NOT BY CONSENSUS the NC prior to the BCS; the AP was only one of many polling services, and the UPI was considered just as valid. Prior to the UPI, there were others as well that were recognized as being official. If you go to the NCAA official site, or to the College Football Clearing House site, you will see that prior to the BCS, there were MANY MANY years in which there were officially recognized SHARED NC’s. In fact, the one UGAG claims for 1942 was shared, as were several by Bama, LSU, USC, OSU, MSU, etc.

Why can you only win three games against UF since 90? Is that why you come on here and avoid talk with gator fans? Does it make you feel better? The fact is, your recruiting classes are par with UF. GT DOES NOT recruit players that you do. You are known for lacking in the educational department. You are suppose to beat us. We know that but apparently you don’t. But you are not suppose to have a winning percent of 15% against your biggest rival since 90. Those are the years that matter most right? Or are you one of these 1980 losers. 15% man.

Yes, CPJ was so focused that he let the worst Dawg team in 10 year come into his house while he had the #7 team in the country and let the Dawgs stomp all over his guys. Good thing we now have his attention. Who knows what the results would have been had we not?

Scott W., that college football warehouse has lots of good info in it. Kevin posted the link to it yesterday, claiming UGAG’s schedule ranked 2nd all time in the country. He was correct in that claim, but he didn’t look closely enough to find out that the reason it ranks so high for all time is that the pre-1950 schedules were tough; that has certainly not been the case since then, last year being a notable exception.

Hell, Tech probably had more passing yards last year than Nebraska or Oklahoma did in the years when they ran the option and won NC’s doing it. You still ignore the passing efficienty of 13th from last year.

P City, the only team to blow us out last year was Miami. Iowa was probably the best team we faced, but even then Tech was still in it until the last 4 minutes. It might come as a suprise to you too, P City, to know that Tech once had a 7-0 streak in bowl game wins in consecutive years, and of those 7, 6 were major bowls. Of course, that’s past history, and it doesn’t mean anything to day. But UGAG has never had a streak like that, at least not that many majors in a row.

#116 in passing yards per game

#119 in pass completions per game

That being said, UGA has a lot of “fans,” people who have pulled for the Dawgs for 20 years whom I call “flukes of geography fans.” Were they to move to Los Angeles, they would be Southern Cal “fans” within a year.

MB, thanks for the article.

Am I the only one who thought this article was kind of a backhanded compliment to Tech? “This one guy… whose health and performance will make the difference between a two-loss and a six-loss season… and whose departure next season will undoubtedly wreck the program… is really really really important in intangible ways.”

That’s gotta be a little disconcerting if you’re a GT fan.

And enough about the intangibles. How about some stats? Was he even the most valuable QB (he didn’t qualify for ESPN’s passer rating stats because he didn’t have enough passing attempts)? How was he rushing compared to other QBs? “Performing a lot in a complicated system” cannot be the sole criteria.

This article also kinda sidestepped the usual debates about MVP that come up in the baseball voting. Is it “player whose absence would most screw their team” or “player who does the most on a team that is competing for championships”? I, and the article, always agreed with the former. But would we be reading the same article if Nesbitt had a halfway decent backup (something that he has no control over)? Probably not.

A cool next article would be “FUBAR: Who’s JN’s backup and what happens if JN is hurt?”

… that is, if you’re done writing “Mrs. Mark Bradley Nesbitt” with little hearts and flowers all over your Geometry notebook.

(jk about the last part, dug the article).

I sure do admire the way Nesbitt goes about his business.

Recruited by Chan Gailey and no doubt dreaming about a pro career, Nesbitt has embraced an offense that guarantees he won’t be drafted as a QB. He probably won’t be drafted at all. He absorbs an amazing amount of punishment every game. He’s not held in particularly high esteem by his own conference and despite winning the ACC Championship he’s anonymous nationally.

Not exactly what he signed up for. Yet he’s a bulldog of a player, tenacious and tough.

You have to admire that kind of strength of character. My hat’s off to you, Joshua Nesbitt.

We all assume Joshua is not replacable, but none of us have any idea what Tevin is capable of. Add in some more elusivness and a better passer rating and someone could run this offense with the same proficeny as joshua and Tevin is more elusive. So the question is, is he more accurate, we might just see…

You come in here for the express purpose of sling s**t and stirring things up. Sad.

B. Never commented on a UGA blog or article, rarely read them. I am sure there are Tech fans that do and I am sure they get as irrational, nasty and idiotic as you do in here. Never has been nor will it ever be me. I’m not responsible for the actions of others, only myself. I feel the same about any Tech fan who would defile a UGA blog/article just as I do about you. Pathetic and lacking any real redeemable social qualities.

Now, you may go back to your UGA blogs and enjoy. You won’t because you simply crave the attention that you get from being a naughty boy in here slinging inflammatory rhetoric with no basis in fact. You are a true child.

@George Stein -

“I’m ringing the bulls–t bell on Delbert D. No way can you throw a football more than 50 yards. Try again, chief.”

Not now, George. That was 45 years ago. From the 50 yard line to the end zone in HS practice in shorts and tee shirts. I used to warm up the receivers because our option QBs didn’t have strong arms. We didn’t pass much running the T-formation triple option. As a 2nd team end, I caught 3 passes for my career, as a junior. All in one game, three plays in a row. Never had one thrown to me as a senior. By the way, I could also kick a field goal in practice from 37 yards max. We never tried one in a game.

However, I can barely throw a tennis ball 25 feet to my dog now, and I broke my right toe kicking off barefoot in my senior year. Had to go back to the shoes, with reduced range.

So, no bullsh-t.

If time travel were possible, it would be interesting to put Nesbitt alongside Billy Lothridge of Georgia Tech and Jimmy Sidle of Auburn, both triple option QBs in the ’60s. Sidle became the first QB to lead the nation in rushing with 1006 yards in 1963. The same year, Lothridge finished 2nd in the Heisman voting behind Roger Staubach. Lothridge scored 15 touchdowns as a quarterback and kicked 21 field goals and 51 extra points in ‘63. For his career, he passed for 2,394 yards and 18 touchdowns.

Nesbitt is a runner, tough to bring down, but has little to show far as any Passing abilities. When GaTech is down by 10 points or more in second half, Tech will have to find Somehone who can PAss. Running around in the backfield against a Game-clock isnt good strategy. Tech winning 7 games will be a stretch agianst Any teams who forage a Tough Defense… again Ga.

Joshua Nesbitt defines what a STUDENT / ATHLETE should be. He is an incredible athlete and a strong leader. he will be successful no matter what he does because he has the heart of a champion and he is a credit to his gender.

Delbert D., I don’t think you can call the offense that Lotheridge ran a triple option, but he was indeed an option QB, and a damn good one. He was a better passer than Nesbitt has been thus far, and since Tech passed as much as ran, he had several great receivers to throw to. That being said though, Nesbitt is definitely a terrific TO QB, and in spite of not being a great passer, he’s a helluva leader and probably is the most valuable player (to his team) in college football today.

supersize – Yeah, the belly series. I played in HS the same years that Lothridge played at Tech. I got a lot of experience defending it at DE (we ran the Oklahoma 5-4) since I was a 2nd-string end. The coach would tell me to go for the QB after his dive fake most of the time so he could get his toss option timing down. I spent a lot of my time in practice that year hugging our QB…didn’t want to take him to the ground….

Delbert, the belly series was only one of several schemes in Dodd’s book, so Lotheridge didn’t run it all the time like Nesbitt does in CPJ’s scheme. Lotheridge was really a do-everything type QB, and damn, was he fun to watch.

JCH you do realize many, many, many NCAA rules were made because of how BEAR ran a program. it was not illegal at that time but people figured out how paul was so bad to his players and couldn’t careless if they made to graduation. If they got hurt he kicked them out of school and that was it. That is why Bobby Dodd and GT left the SEC. BEAR didn’t care about the average player after he ate mom’s dinner and left the home with the kid signed.

The 1962 Bama team was on there at 8th (I think that’s right), and of course that’s the team that Lotheridge and company beat 7-6 in Atlanta. I was there !!! Looking through that list, Tech appears 3 times (1952, 1955, and 1956). UGAG is nowhere at all in the list :)

Nesbitt is a great runner and a tough player. A great QB he is not. Did you watch the 1st Clemson game last year? He completed more passes to Clemson players than Tech players! GT’s program is better than it was 5 years ago–no question. But, they are not a top tier program over the last 10 years and have no business talking trash to a team that’s handed them their arses 8 out of the last 9 times, is the 5th winningest team in the country over that time and has finished in the top 10 6 times in the last 10 years. I applaud GT’s excitement for their “new” program, but don’t let being excited cause you to make ridiculous claims. After all, you will not me on FL blogs talking about us being better than them, because they’ve been killing us. Know your place.

Nesbitt is a great running QB and a mediocre (at best) passer. Seriously, the guy completed more passes to Clemson last year than GT! If he is the MVP of college football, that speaks volumes about the the rest of GT–not in a good way.

That said, GT’s program is much improved over the last 2 years–no question. While I do think there is ceiling with respect to how far the triple option can take them, they’re better. However, to start talking trash to UGA who has beaten you 8 out of the last 9 years, is the only team in the country to win more than 8 games or more the last 13 years, has competed in 3 BCS bowls and won 2 and has finished in the top 10 6 of the last 10 years is silly.

Now, you can add Kentucky, Ole Miss, or Miss State. UGA maybe plays 5 of 12 games that are real games. I don’t care what the media says. They are fools just look at their picks all year long. UGA plays 5 games that are hard. In those 5 games UGA has as many or more STAR RECRUITS than 2 of those teams. UGA fans still hear the POOR MOUTH VINCE DOOLEY TALKING IN THEIR EARS. Vince was always the poor underdawg but he had more talent. “I don’t know how we should be on the same field with (enter any SEC TEAM). They just have a great( enter Player) and I just don’t know how we can stop ?????” Vince was the Classic POOR MOUTH COACH. He knew the MUTTS only played 3 or 4 hard games all year. Now, you stupid mutts are still buying into the same crap. UGA schedule was 78-74 lasy year. your OOC schedule was 21-28 and 11 of those wins came from TECH how you don’t fear. Grow some UGA fans.

If you would take time enough to look, you would see that that ranking comes NOT because of the last 10 years schedules, NOT EVEN because of the last 25 years schedules, but because of schedules prior to 1975, and more importantly prior to 1950. The link you gave gives a breakdown by decades and quarter centuries; it’s all there for you to see.

Bulldog fan here. But I like Nesbitt a lot. He’s tough as nails and a good guy too. He’s under-rated, the perfect QB to run Johnson’s offense. He’s Tech’s best player, and one of the country’s MVPs. I hope he gets the credit he deserves this upcoming year.

It’ll be interesting to see how he’s viewed by the NFL.

heeldawg

Nesbitt is the most valuable offensive player on an offense-centric team. Tech’s offense is predicated upon QB reads and mobolity; the best of CPJ’s teams have had option wizards at the helm (see Tracey Ham). Josh Nesbitt is cut from that same mold. Without his experience, decision-making, elusiveness and toughness, Tech is not the same team offensively. And this Tech team, unlike Tech two years ago, is not going to win games with its defense. So he’s Tech’s MVP without question. Is the the most valuable player for any team in the country? Quite possibly.

But even with him, Tech won’t beat Georgia.

Regarding scheduling, it’s hilarious that an ACC team mocks UGA’s schedule. When is the last time GT played a defending NC champion? UGA has done that year after year. Also, our OOC schedule, like other SEC schools, does not need to be impressive since we play inside the hardest conference in the country. To compare GTs schedule to UGAs over the last 10 years is absolutely laughable. The ACC is a joke.

But you know something in this SEC rich and over hyped environment it is refreshing to see a team and coach well behind the enemy lines reminding the pretty boys, talk is cheap you still have to play the game.

I never said he wouldn’t make it, but they don’t need Gadget QB’s in the NFL and Miami is the only team that runs an unconventional offense and you see where it has gotten them. He must learn to throw and do it efficently and at a high level if he wants to be a starter……just ask Tebow! I wish him well and would like to see him develop some QB skills…..these college coaches are doing HORRIBLE jobs preparing these young men for the next level (CPJ and Urban Meyers), it’s all about making money for themselves and the schools and the student athletes are getting the short end of the sticks!!!!!!

Any truth to the rumor that Vandy is trying to lock up UGA as the annual Vandy homecoming opponent? Next great college football rivalry will be between Florida and Tech over who gets to lay the worst beating on the dogs annually. UF has the advantage of getting first shot every year, but we get the pleasure of administering the death blow every November. Trust me, once we get our boot on your throats, you will never get up.

Again the question begs answering————-why would any high school QB with a desire to play in the NFL, ever want to go to Tech? Nesbitt,and every future QB coming to Tech is going to get pounded and pounded again. And for what? At least running backs that take it each week and go pro, will get compensated. But they all pay the price. Talk to Earl Campbell,Larry Csonka, etc,etc. My point is Paul Johnson doesn’t give a damn—–he’ll win some games with that high school offense, and that will mollify the geek following, but he refuses to switch to a college/pro offense, because he is clueless. But then all that matters to the geeks is that Tech “outscore” their opponent.The hell with the players.

If you look at Nesbitt’s porblems with injuries, every year, his ankle has caused to miss playing time. You can’t do much in the triple option with a bum ankle. Troble for Georgia Tech.

Nesbitt is injury-prone, and running so much with Paul Johnson’s high school offense, you have to think, teams will ankle tackle Nesbitt every time, knowing about that right ankle.

So, the ankle Nesbitt’s been trying to rehab all Spring, that has given him trouble since 2008, will be targeted by teams every time Nesbitt runs the ball. Not goog, not good at all.

oledawg, who says that every QB coming out of HS is capable, or even desirous, of going pro after college? That doesn’t mean that they aren’t any good, often better, in fact, at what they do, then the pro-worthy ones are at what they do. CPJ gives those QBs a shot at a free college education, the opportunity to keep playing football (which I assume they love) for 4 years after HS, and get a good degree which will help them get a good job after graduation. It’s not ALL about going pro. After all, what percentage of all college football players end up making it in the pros? Not a very high one, I would imagine. So if CPJ goes after the best of the non-pro-worthy QBs and wins with them, then to hell with everybody else.

Jim, Nesbitt is injury prone??? He missed playing time for one quarter last season, and that was after UGAG mugged him. His ankle surgery this winter was not because of an injury; it was because of a buildup of scar tissue or something on one of his ankles. Sure that comes from wear and tear, but I’d still say he did pretty damn good last year to have taken all the hits (SMASH hits) he did and only miss one quarter of playing time.

Getting players into the NFL certainly looks good to both the coaches and the school, but bottom line is, these guys are there to win college games and generate revenue. Unfortunately, the lure of NFL money will continue to dilute and harm the college game. Considering the millions being made by the schools and the sometimes desperate situations that a lot of these players come from, perhaps the NCAA should reconsider the whole compensation to players issue.

So tell me, along with Tech’s 4 national championships and 16 conference championships (to UGAG’s 2 and 12) has the richer football tradition?

DawgFan, I understand what you are saying about Boise State and Utah, but remember one thing, if they WERE in the SEC, or any other big-time conference (Utah soon will be), their recruiting stock would go way up. They would get bigger and better athletes, probably run the same system, and ultimately succeed. Just think how Tech would have been if Dodd hadn’t pulled us out of the SEC. We pretty much owned the state of Georgia then, had far more national recognition, had the larger stadium, far more money in our coffers, and a helluva lot more success on the field. I don’t think that would have ended. I am no longer much of an SEC fan, but I’m not stupid; I know what being in the SEC could have (and I think would have) meant to Tech.

I think that it was knowing what Tech had been and could easily be again was the reason Dooley successfully lobbied against allowing Tech back in the SEC in the 80s, and it’s why the powers that be in Athens indicated a total lack of support for allowing us back in this past winter, had conference expansion plans proceeded.

DawgFan, I think with CPJ coaching the sky’s the limit. They struggled under Gailey, because Gailey, in spite of being a good man, just is not a very good college coach. You know, I heard Gailey speak twice at alumni functions, and I was totally impressed with his knowledge of the game of football. But for whatever reason, he couldn’t translate that knowledge into consistency on the field. CPJ know what it takes to produce a winner, and he doesn’t settle for anything but 100% effort. If the addition of Al Groh to the staff does what I think it’s going to do, then watch out. I’m not predicting that it will happen, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tech back in Miami again in January. I just hope we don’t have another one of those breakdowns against the mutts this year. That, although not as devastating as some of you mutts want to believe, certainly put a blemish on an otherwise fantastic season last year.

dawgfan1987, what do FSU, Miami and GT, all teams you deem as failing have in common? They have all earned at least one national championship since the last (only) dogs nc. The SEC is clearly the superior conference in this country, the nc resides there. Unfortunately, UGA is always on the outside looking in. UGA has a program (results wise) that should be the envy of 95% of the country, the problem is none of that 95% has ever won a nc. Florida, LSU, Miami, USC Ohio State, Texas, Alabama etc all have nc’s since UGA’s last. Simple fact is you guys are an above average team, playing in a VERY above average conference.

Shoot even Coach Johnson did not take a ranked team and lose to Vandy as Richt did. That has to be the lowest day in UGA history.

Dr. Kenneth Noisewater,

I think you may be confusing MB’s praise of Nesbitt’s “value” vs. his “greatness” … I dont think MB is saying that Nesbitt is the best player, merely the most valuable to his team. Its a point of contention. For instance, last year Mark Ingram won the Heisman trophy as the nations best player…was he the most valuable? No, not by a long shot… take him out of alabama’s offense and they probably still make it atleast to the SEC title game, and possibly the national title game because their defense carried them.

Now on the other hand, does Texas make it ANYWHERE last year if Colt McCoy gets hurt? What if Sam Bradford stayed healthy? Those 2 players were not the best players out there, but certainly had the most value of any players in college football… and that is the point MB is trying to make.

Name a player in college football this year who will have more value… if you take Nesbitt off of this GT team (or better yet, off of last years team… do they win 10 games? no.. without Nesbitt last year, that is a 6 win team at best). And now this year, after losing his best offensive and defensive weapons, his value is even higher. remove him from this years team, and they might not win a game outside of SC State.

Is there any other player you can think of that is more important to his teams success this year? Any player that if you removed him from his team, the team would fall apart completely?

The research into the chemicals you use, and the production of them? Chemisty and Chemical Engineering. The planes you fly in, AND the space program? Aerospace Engineering.

I would think that would be a relatively easy thing to address, and I think it will be easier if the defense is any good and can keep the game close until the offense starts clicking. That’s just my opinion, for whatever it’s worth

You can’t win unless you cheat anyway…..like against Florida in 2007, and last year deliberately hurting Nesbitt. Your school has a tradition of cheating, whining, and never winning the big one, the 1980 gift against Notre Dame notwithstanding. And that WAS a gift, since Notre Dame didn’t deserve to be in that game anyway, having had to come from behind in Atlanta just to TIE a one-win Tech team.

Recently I commented about how the Tech-Georgia game needs to be changed from the childish, learning the abc’s ABC network channel. It’s been played on ABC since I was at Tech in the early 70’s. I said that ESPN is a network with random letters more intellectual than a child’s knowledge of the English alphabet, and it also has one more letter than in ABC. Then I said Georgia might not want to start a contract with ESPN for the Tech game because they don’t have any more than a child’s level of grasp of the English alphabet- A, B, C. A Georgia commenter here named Glory Glory is proof of my point, mentioning Mickey Mouse in their comment. This ABC broadcast is biased toward Georgia, and it’s not a good contract for Georgia Tech.

It is intuitively obvious that a GT player by definition cannot be the most valuable collegiate player.

supersize that order, mutt, I have not resorted to childish name calling, but then again you are a techmite. Your institution would be 1-19 against UGA over the last 20 games had you not cheated and knowingly used ineligibe players for 3 years. Your tech school is the cesspool of college athletics and no one respects anything about gnats, except other insects.

The fat slobs techie coach is always asking for supersizing and that why he fat and thinks like high school offense. He can’t winning playing with big mens in SEC against the teams like Bammers and Gaytors that Dawgs goning beating like Crimson and ugly Orange head step childs now that Willie packed to gone. Instead he get boys to play high as loosing and not talent for NFL.

OK, this is busy league stuff. Nesbitt is a fine QB. He is perfect for the Yellow Jackets. He runs very well and he is a big/strong kid. He is very tough, both mentally and physically.

With this said, the ‘options’ that Newbitt has simply do not stack up to last year. I think this kid is literally going to take a beating. Would not surprise me at all if he is out by the Georgia game.

No doubt that CPJ is a fine offensive coach, but if the offense has a weakness, it is how often it exposes the QB.

Excellent article, I do not expect the spoiled GA fans to know what it is like to have a player like Nesbit. They have the money, the publicity, the media and the top recruits all at thier beckon call, always have. Considering all that, how would anyone ever expect them to understand toughness and class all wrapped up in one package! By the way, who has not won a conf. championship in 5 years , oh yes, that would the Dawgs! Face it, Tech is tough, and will be for years, get used to it!

kevin,

if you are going to blog with intelligent Tech men, get your facts straight.

1— We have 4 national champs, not 1 , as you do.
2— As far as tradition, We had a coach by the name of Heisman, heard of him?

Jeff the Jacket, UGA has two national championships. And, yes, John Heisman coached at Tech, but he also coached at several other universities, which cuts into the longevity of his traditional role at the school.

That being said, the work of Johnson and Nesbitt the past two years has helped the Jackets win a lot of games. It will interesting to see how well the new primary running back works out and how much assistance he can be in eliminating the number of carries and hits Nesbitt has to endure this year. He’s a tough player, much tougher than most QBs. But I still worry about his workload this season.

See you at Sanford Stadium a few days after Thanksgiving to see how the rivalry unfolds.
