[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 846782, member: 282"] People seem to think Nate Woody is good, and he came for Johnson’s last year. And that’s just an example from GT from 4 years ago. I’ve argued the high-risk aspect of taking a job here next year. However, there are a lot of coaches who are smarter than their bosses and want a chance to prove it; Thacker might prove it next year somewhere else, for that matter. If you’re an up and coming DC, you have a team that should have top half of the ACC talent but is bottom 30 in defensive stats. Regardless of the win/loss record next year and what happens with Collins, if you can get that defense up to AVERAGE in one year, you’ve got a helluva line for your resume. And a smart coach should easily be able to get that defense up to average in one year. If you’re an up and coming OC (or and old and grizzled one), you have an offense that’s average now, and can be great if it 1. cuts down on basic mistakes 2. gets up to average in blocking 3. learns to stay ahead of the chains. It’s the same as the DC opportunity—a smart coach should see “low hanging fruit, ready to pick”. [/QUOTE]
