    Official: Brent Key is Georgia Tech Football's Head Coach

    Exactly. Wtf cares what they think. It is that mentality of being the kid brother to the cow pasture university to the east that drives us into making stupid decisions like Collins.

    Official: Brent Key is Georgia Tech Football's Head Coach

    My sentiments too. Chadwell has done everything that Key has done as an interim coach and has a successful track record as head coach. He was my first choice, but I have been impressed with Key given the hand he was dealt.

    Reminded me of Mike Price at Bama. He skipped 1 and 2 and went right to 3.

    Official: Brent Key is Georgia Tech Football's Head Coach

    If this is true, he earned the job on the fly. His interview process was the season. He took what I believed to be an existential catastrophe and made it respectable. He did it, at times, with a 3rd string QB against ranked competitors and a Heisman candidate. He needs to show that he can...

    Your choice for Head Coach

    I think it proves he is a much better coach than the last guy who cleared the last expert search committee criteria. He has taken a crappy poker hand and played it amazingly well IMHO. We went from losing our last five games under CGC by a combined score of 200-20, to winning games that we...

    HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    I was a fan (and still am) of CPJ and liked the offense. But I agree with everything you said. I thought that enhancing the passing game, even by a little, and changing the running formation to utilize more of a feature back would have done wonders for Johnson's ability to both recruit and...

    And the AD should come in with their own list.

    We’ll see how it comes together. Right now we don’t have an AD, so the search committee is just building a list. My point was more that any AD worth his/her salt is not going to be bound by an existing seach committee.

    Great Take.

    You just cannot break out of that paradigm can you? We are GT. We are going to get the occasional Calvin Johnson or Demarius Thomas, but those are exceptions. We need a scheme where we can make recruits successful, like a Josh Nesbitt or a Taylor Bennet. If you haven’t noticed, we won a lot...

    A red flag for me would be if the new AD comes in and forms a ‘search’ committee. As someone mentioned, we didn’t need committees for Ross, or O’leary, or even Johnson. UGA had their eyes on Kirby for years. Dabo was already on staff at Clemson. Bama went after Saban without a search. Etc...

    Great Take.

    I have seen this in business and technology countless times. There’s never money to do it right. But there’s always money to do it over. It’s maddening.

    Great Take.

    I would argue that you can get to a natty at GT. Cincinnati got into the playoff last year. But we aren’t going to get there by trying to recreate Bama or Clemson or UGA. That isn’t who we are.

    Great Take.

    Which goes back to the article. I always heard that Johnson wanted to increase the recruiting budget and add more heads. (Would love for someone to confirm.) Apparently, The AD and the Hill didn’t want to support him. Kirby comes into UGA and adds 8 more recruiters to the existing staff. He...
