[QUOTE="YJMD, post: 378199, member: 1929"] I don't think it's all about recruiting, but it's part of it. I do believe that CPJ is a very high quality football coach. And that he knows what a program needs to be successful. But he needs an administrative environment and assistant coaches who are willing to provide those needs autonomously. GT as an institute is in poor alignment with providing those needs, but I will highlight 1. this is very common 2. the institute probably has more natural barriers to alignment than any other P5 school 3. CPJ is a football coach and not the type to bridge the gap even if he knows it's there. I do think that Stansbury is a major upgrade for us at the AD spot, but we'll have to see how successful he can be and also be aware that we're going to need to invest for long-term gains. There is not enough $$$ to get the short-term gains. Dabo is a good contrast to CPJ in style. I think everyone here would agree that Dabo is not a better [I]football[/I] coach, but he is at the tippy top of people in the profession that can build a program. He did a ton to bridge gaps between the football program and their administration, and he was able to focus on really high quality coordinators to fill the gaps, and he rewarded them handily -- not just financially, but with a good balance of support and autonomy. But Clemson has a lot more resources to work with. I don't think we should can CPJ. We're seeing upward progress with Stansbury in our institutional barriers, and CPJ is still a good football coach who is producing better than average GT coach results. I don't expect him to take us to the top, but it would be a bad gamble to find someone else. I have grown to appreciate option football under him so much that, unless a college football game is of national or GT importance, I don't even enjoy watching it. [/QUOTE]
