Regardless of whose at fault for being put on probation, O’Leary’s staff was able to recruit players as if it didn’t matter if they could make progress toward an actual GT degree. No offense to O’Leary, but not following rules coincided with some of our best recruiting. I like that CPJ...

I think recruiting at GT is a tricky balance because it’s important to recruit the state to develop local interest in the program, and its true that GA and the southeast are fertile recruiting grounds. But given our restrictions and less-than-broad appeal to blue chippers, it’s also important...

I think he probably would have loved to recruit nationally with a recruiting staff and budget big enough to support casting a wider net.

Kirby was announced and wore 2 hats leading up to Bama playing in the playoffs. Something similar could be done.

I’m sure it had a lot to do with it. I think it was toward the end of MBob when CPJ just said f*** it and took a noticeable turn in the things he was saying publicly.

I like the idea of keeping Andy Mac and the defensive staff intact. I think Woody’s defense is a great fit for us. Mac is known for his recruiting, has HC experience, and has been at GT long enough to know what he’s getting into. I like the idea of Cook at OC because he’s very familiar with...

I’m sure we won’t hire someone for the sake of a single game.

I think if he comes back it will be to a power 5 program where he feels he can recruit better, more fan support, etc. The only thing he has left to do is win it all at the top level. Part of me hopes he does because I know he would dominate in the right environment. The problem is his offense...

His “logic” had something to do with recruiting, but it’s not like we couldn’t have a new coach in place while CPJ coaches for the bowl game. Joe Ham is always pretty annoying when he talks about GT. It feels like he just wants to be part of the local “B level radio personality”club and mainly...

If you go back and listen to the radio show from last week, I think he accidentally let his plans be known, but I was hoping that wasn’t the case. Great coach who has been under appreciated. We’ll be lucky to get someone who is half the coach of CPJ. I would love to see us bring in Monken, but...

For the first year in the system we did well schematically. It seemed like more so than in the recent past, they knew where to go and mostly played as a cohesive unit. The negatives that stick out the most were poor tackling and inconsistent coverage in the secondary. Even in the uga game...

His playbook has been opened to the extent the players have allowed. We’ve passed more some seasons than others based on who we had at QB, and none of them have been great passers. Maybe an actual dual threat won’t materialize, but it’s not like he’s refusing to “open the playbook” out of...

I think with the right QB he would gladly sling it around more. We haven’t seen the ideal QB for this system yet at GT. JT was the best total skill set for what we do, but still not a great passer. TW was a great technician, and smart with the ball, but lacked athleticism and a strong arm...

I think we’ll score on them some. Maybe a lot if CPJ can get one of his scheme tweaks working that they just can’t seem to adjust to. We might need Wells to make a big kick or 2, but we’re probably not going to win if we can’t score TDs. Stopping them on offense will be key. I hope we go...

We need more of these in metro Atlanta. There’s a bunch of Tech alums here in SE Atlanta, and I’m sure other corners of the city.

Based on...

I know you’re not a fan, but I don’t think that’s guaranteed. If we get the right QB (maybe Graham or one of the incoming freshmen) and CPJ sees the chance to do something special, he could stick around a few more years. For now, I’m excited about the possibility of a healthy Lucas Johnson.

I’ve had similar thoughts about the defense. I like the aggressive play in the front 7. We’re getting more TFL than 2017, but we’re slightly behind our 2016 number. Some of the pass coverage has been hard to watch, but overall I think the defense shows potential for us in the future. For the...

They had a white adidas 1/4 zip available when the adidas stuff first rolled out, but they became unavailable very quickly and I dont think they have them anymore. I was hoping once they got caught up with the initial demand they’d have more, but no such luck. It seems like if they sold out so...

“Available” could just mean that everyone could play if they absolutely had to. I doubt that at this point in the season there’s no one who gets held out because they’re a little too banged up. And if it is true that everyone is healthy, then we have no players who VT can check off their list.
