I am posting this bc I am fascinated...how would YOU answer that question at your job when you have 4 years of (unsatisfactory) data. I really don't have a clue what a person could/should say in that situation. I know some of you will chime in with something unrealistic such as "I deserve to be...

I don't think I have ever witnessed this before on any group, team, organization, whatever....but this is the first time in my life that I have ever witnessed 'negative synergy"....i.e. the sum of the parts is worse than the whole. It's true across the entire spectrum of players and staff. Wow.

Is that because of the great coaching he is getting over there or is it the God given ability he was given? I say it is the latter. Which is why I rate recruiting the higher of the three.

Nothing that is taking place at GT is going to influence the decisions of kids considering Tech 2-3 years from now I would imagine (thank the good Lord above!). This of course assumes there has been a coaching staff change. What is taking place now is a one off situation. To an 18 year old teen...

Great post. WTBS, while there is no doubt that NIL is new, I think it falls clearly under the label or heading of recruiting thse days. as opposed to being a separate category. You have to win at the NIL game to be an effective recruiter in 2022 and beyond. But I think the skillset for...

Great points but I apparently didn't make myself very clear. I didn't understand the question asked in the post to be specific to Tech or our current situation. (I am not sure I would change my answer though.)

5-4-2. Get the Calvin Johnsons, Trevor Lawrences, Jamir Gibbs, Bryan Brysee, type of players who show up ready to play. Coach them to get better in your systems and get them in a college S & C program. Do that well enough you lessen the need for strategery. Auburn and Texas (was it malzahn and...

I'm aware of the passage of time so I'll guess I will watch again tomorrow. At least for some part of it,,,I made it to the early 3rd quarter last week (in person). Anybody know the time and station for this classic? I will grill and drink, not necessarily in that order to self medicate but, by...

Didn't Griffin have a brother here who was a RB? Whatever happened to him?

I didn't respond not bc I wasn't interested in a conversation. I declined bc no one will actually know if the TO limits the program until it is run at OSU, Bama, Texas, etc. That is the only way to control the variables. And, paradoxically enough, I don't see a blueblood team doing so. So I have...

I lol'd at this....we are so deperate for a change that anybody who isn't CGC but yet has a worse resume than CGC is apparently a good candidate.

I 100% agree with this. I wish we would unite behind solving the root cause issues. At the end of the day, while this thread is entertaining, we are really deep in the weeds. I think those who don't attend/give/post here understand this and this is why our fan base is shrinking. Not the systems...

I don't quibble at all with your opinion nor do I have the time, energy or desire to want to change it. As Paul said, it is what it is.

I don't think anyone who posts here or follows the program closely thought our 1's on D were practicing against our own scheme. As you say, we were repping against the scout team getting ready for the next week's opponent. WTBS, I would imagine that it was being whispered in the ears of...

Ah, I too did time in the corporate world. Reminds me of some of the following gems: A committee is a group of people who individually can do nothing, but who, as a group, can meet and decide that nothing can be done. Fred Allen If you want to kill any idea in the world, get a committee...

This may be true. It is a shame that we will never know. Perhaps if CPJ had the resources of a Clemson or Ohio State we would know and this debate would not be necessary. Perhaps if he had those resources, half the teams in college football would be running his system.

What outcome would meet your approval in this conversation? Serious question...how would you like this conversation to end? I think a holistic approach is realistic and not unreasonable. It appears that you want to limit it to just a discussion about the offense. I am reading your post...

These are great posts and you have certainly sold us on the valid points about this system as an offensive system. You seem interested in the debate so let's continue. However, the O is just one leg of a 3 legged stool if you will. The skeptics (myself included) think that, as good as an...

I watched it. I admire that guy for one thing...how does he remain so relentlessly focused at his age and with his resume?? He is in the 99.99999999999999% percentile in terms of drive to succeed. Most folks would have taken their foot off the gas a long time ago, myself included, Give me just...

This thread has me intrigued enough to ask this question. If having a unique scheme is so advantageous why is no one proposing the single wing, the T formation , the wishbone or the I formation? These are all cutting edge offensive schemes in their day but no one is (apparently) pushing them as...
