Welcoming Winkeljohn
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Readers of the AJC’s Georgia Tech coverage will notice a change this week. Matt Winkeljohn switches from the NFL to Tech, with an emphasis on Yellow Jackets men’s basketball. Rana Cash, who has been covering Tech since the summer of 2004, got promoted to a management job, running our suburban sports coverage.
I’ll miss having Rana with me on the Tech beat. She’s a wonderful reporter and a pleasure to work with. She also knows how to make everyone around her smile. I’m sure you’ll miss her, too, and join me in wishing her well as she embarks on the next leg of her promising career.
I think we’ll enjoy seeing Matt’s perspective on things. I know he’s looking forward to getting to know Tech.

Tough year to enjoy getting to know Tech bball…
I have always liked Matt’s football writings, Falcons coverage here suffered(particularly insider/inner workings news) in my opinion when he left that beat.

Wink needs to get back to Falcon football or do Ga. dawg coverage. He is the best reporter that the ajc has!

Nice GT. I agree…..lets win a freakin’ game. Right now, I don’t care if a 2 year old covers GT sports. He or she doesn’t have anything to cover if we aren’t winning.

I would prefer Furman Bisher on the Tech beat myself. And that Dwayne Morrison was a hell-uv-a coach.

How come they gave the Tech beat to a white man?

All I need to know is, can Winklejohn run the point? That’s what Tech needs.

Just in case any of you out there were wondering about Ralph’s post, no, “myopians” is not an actual word. Even this dumb UGA grad knows that.
Know what is a word, however? “Inferiority,” as in “Ralph seems to suffer from a massive inferiority complex with respect to UGA.”

Word on the street is that Nix is getting full control of the offense this year, finally. Now Nix will get a chance to run the offense himself. That way if we still suck offensively, then he will deserve the criticism. He’s been getting blasted and hasn’t deserved it. We will be much better with Nix calling plays.
