Didn't we almost meet your goal with our men's basketball program? I believe we only have 10 years left on the buyout! ;)

Small sample size but I read (in this thread iirc) where Ken S. did a poll of coaches in the local area to see what they thought about our coaching search. I think Key was the top vote getter and he seems to be well received in the local HS community. I do not think the sample was large nor...

Thank you for your response. I want to clarify things in the event that you may have misunderstood my meaning. When I said he was no TL or JF, I did not mean that as a slight in any way. Just that he did not have that sort of hype around him (for whatever reason) that those kids did. My...

I may be a bit presumptuous here but I think you can look no further than Zach Pyron as our ability to recruit very good QB's to GT. He may not be a Trevor Lawrence/Justin Fields level of recruit (how many are though?) but I think he is a guy who could play (and win) at most other places. This...

And here I thought this was a GT specialty. How many times over the years have we seen a back up or second teamer come in and have a Heisman-worthy day, only to return to obscurity after his or her brief moment in the sun. Too many times to count. i would share names but, honestly I really try...

It's an odd sort of paradox. I get what you are saying. Truly. However, if this decision was simply a matter of interpreting data, why do so many people get it wrong. Including our former AD, who himself was educated at the North Avenue Trade School. There is something illogical about the...

Gary Lee and the KO return in the fog. Bc I was there, And here comes the really unbelievable part...we won at BDS. Really, it happened. I swear. I can post links if necessary.

Patrick, you seem like a nice fellow of sorts. But do you really think WE think the AD has any interest in what we say here on this forum? I know you are new here as you mentioned previously but I think you may want to take a deep breathe and get a better feel of things around here before you...

I tend to agree with this. If I were an AD, I wouldn't want to hire a guy who needed help picking his assistants. Nor, if I were a HC, would I go anywhere where I was told who my assistants would be. It's a recipe for disaster in either case.

Apropos of nothing yet again, but I have often wondered how many times a penalty (holding, block in the block,etc.) caused a play to be succesful vs. the number of times it happened but really did not effect the outcome of the play. If this question is not answered for me here, it just might be...

I know the chances are slim but I don't think they are explosive on offense (funny how I say that as I haven't seen them play one single minute of football but I don't hear anyone on other games talk about guys they had in the past like Chubb, Michel, AJ Greene, etc.) We have to play slow and...

I am of the opinion that technical expertise (the X's and O's stuff for coaches) is more common and can be purchased as it is more of a commodity.But authentic leadership (the ability in this instance to take young men who are double digit underdogs and playing backups at key positions-pun...

That is not how I interpreted his post. But I am oftentimes wrong about things.

I am curious as to why you limit this challenge just to those who favor Key as a candidate? Why not ask the same for those who want Deion, Mullen, Chadwell, BOB or whomever?

Fair enough. WTBS, the perception of posters tends to change when they repeat the same things over and over. It doesn't matter the topic either. But when talking points are repeated individually to every single poster with differing view points, perception changes. A poster goes from being...

No need to apologize nor defend yourself my friend. My comment wasn't directed at you nor most others. If you read the whole thread it was just a small (but vocal) group whose coaching agenda seemed to suck the joy of the fantastic win out of them.

I am very curious if ANY GT FB coach has accomplished this when, in both cases, we were 20+ underdogs as assessed by neotral observers. OTOH, I am not curious enough to look it up either. I would speculate that it HAS never been done - especially since we haven't historically been his big of an...

This plus upgrade to a larger glass and your worries are over. I find I need to refill these only once or twice (at most) during the game.

After 17 - 0, I took my whiskey and a cigar to the back porch but left the TV on. My son told me we scored just before half so I finished both in time to see the entire second half. This win ranks up there with the 3-3 tie of ND and the road win over Bear in Curry's first year as really...

I think Ross left Bill Lewis with a pretty good roster too. Sometimes it's more than just "a roster". This is essentially the same group that averaged 3 wins per year and without their starting and second string QB. They could have folded this year and played the string out. But they are 4-3...
