    Your choice for Head Coach

    Still time to change your votes, boys and girls! I'm thinking this might be the final hours of voting before the polls close. You just have to decide if it's better to choose the one who will get picked so that you can be 'right' about the selection, or better to choose someone else so that you...

    Coach Brent Key Scenario

    Yeah, when I read that I was thinking "Whaaaa? They must see more from there than you can from Upper West." Someone should ask him for pictures.

    CPJ AJC Article

    Wowza. This is it in a nut-shell. TFFG is easily the worst GT coach ever. He make B*** L**** look like Heisman...and I don't mean that as hyperbole. And anyone who thinks CPJ was anything but a class act in that interview has major objectivity issues. It never ceases to amaze me how people who...

    What else are we going to do, go outside or something? ;)

    We've got a big online grad program. But, yeah, graduate studies. If only we could get them to become Tech football fans (and donate!)

    Chadwell wouldn't turn this job down. Perhaps they couldn't reach an understanding...meaning we said you can't bring your staff lock, stock and barrel...but unless he has a better offer I think it's a bit silly to think he turned Tech down because it's not a desirable job for a G5 coach. Most...

    Really interesting to see Fritz's name pop up in that article. I had no idea he was seriously on the consideration list. I wonder if the 'scoop' here is just random speculation after reading fan boards?

    What can GT expect in OFEI and DFEI rankings with current recruiting numbers?

    Unfortunately too many of the academics turn their nose up at sports as worthy of brain-power. I work with one very well respected Professor who enjoys football, but for the most part they aren't 'into it.' I think Cabrera's open endorsement of our sports program will help. And the raising...

    Your choice for Head Coach

    You protect people. You provide resistance to stupid things. You can't prevent all the damage, but you can do your d*mnest to mitigate the worst of it. I've been there. I had an idiot for a boss one time and everything fell apart. I was a good leader before, and I've been a good leader after...

    Your choice for Head Coach

    Exactly this. Some people persevere through bad situations because they care enough to stay engaged and try to fix things. Those who just don't care leave for greener pastures and shake the dust off their feet as they cross the bridge. If you care, you'll fight for it. If it's just a paycheck...

    If he doesn't want both of them can I have one for my Old Fashioned? ;)

    Your choice for Head Coach

    I don't see it as throwing in the towel at all. Chadwell wins. He hasn't always won with the current offense. But he does adjust his coaching to match the situation. I'm quite sure that if he could attract top talent like the Cesspool attracts flies, then he'd run an offense similar to UGA's. To...

    I think a mix of both. If I had to guess, he may keep Long through his contract next year, but who knows? It might depend on who else might be interested in the job. I hope he'd keep Thacker and the defensive staff together...they are really starting to gel. I'd like to see better special...

    I'm a wind-vane on this topic for sure! I'm not saying 'definitely', just it seems that things are leaning that way. The media seems to be leaning that way. We've had a couple of AJC pieces supporting Key. Some of the pay sites are leaning the same way. I wonder how much of it is intentional...

    I'd be happy with each. But I've switched my #1 preference to Key. He's a Leader. Key has the nucleus of a staff that could be good. He's getting commits despite the IHC tag. Some of our most valuable players love him and want to play for him. He wins big games. He can get butts back in seats...
