12/31: Georgia Tech officially announces the additions of defensive coordinator Andrew Thacker and offensive coordinator Dave Patenaude to Geoff Collins' staff

12/30: According to sources, Temple offensive coordinator Dave Patenaude will join the Georgia Tech coaching staff, while Temple receivers coach Stan Hixon will not join Collins at GT

We never "offered" Tee Martin. No clue where that is coming from. If it came from his camp, however, I respect him a ton less

I expect Thacker to be announced as defensive coordinator as soon as today

He also makes a cameo appearance in a season 1 episode of Last Chance U. Just some fun trivia as an aside

Yes, Coach Nathan Burton will coach safeties

The 4 trophies stand for the 4 national championships Tech has won, I believe. You'll continue to see him tweeting those out. It's a good selling point he is trying to fully take advantage of. I can't confirm, but that's what it seems like to me anyway

Yes. This is nothing to worry about. He will be with Tech regardless of any other changes that might occur

Yes.

As of now, he and the strength and conditioning staff will be retained. I expect him to stay regardless of what else happens

While some may be disappointed by the staffing changes, I thoroughly believe that this is a good thing. Let Coach Collins bring in who he feels will give Tech the best chance to succeed. It would be a disservice to hire a coach and then impose restrictions on who his staff will be, who he can...
