You trying to give us something to complain about ASAP if it doesn't happen in the next 6 hours? :D

Most people don't know if they're the "oh well" hire, but it's probably more often than they'd think... Whether Key has more inside info, or puts any credence into the millions of rumors, is something we also don't know. I don't think it'll be a big issue.

Y'all gotta get on that docusign train.

1) make up rumors 2) “leak” then to the paywall authors 3) repost them here claiming a source 4) get in trouble for “stealing” from paywall to launder the info some 5) laugh at Tech fans going crazy over rumors

There was a lot of VERY CONFIDENT posting of info that turned out to be way off, from pre-Batt AD candidates to Deion to Key being the top choice and probably a few steps in between I'm missing, which honestly seems like it could just be repackaged paywall stuff since if that's all from one...

That brings up an interesting aspect - I remember some chatter about "I hope we don't just go lazy and hire BoB or Key just because Batt knows them," but if we're trying to read tea leaves here, assuming neither BoB nor Key end up being the hire, that's very differently suggestive. I don't know...

That's one of those things I think we just have to assume Batt is going to be investigating and asking about himself... OR... we could try to math it! Anyone got a prob/stats textbook handy to figure out the probability of Batt asking Key and others about how much he was or wasn't hampered by...

Seems like this whole back and forth could've been pre-empted if McWhorter's HC successes had just been linked to back up the claim he would've been better than Gailey, how strange!

If we hire do hire Fritz we could try to get McWhorter to come out of retirement as OL coach... it'll make Fritz look young and help our OL at the same time!

McWhorter's resume seems to be a cautionary tale *against* Key IMO.

If you want >.500 and are proposing Key you're putting a LOT of faith in big recruiting and player development issues just improving overnight without Collins. I wouldn't blame an AD for not being willing to bet on that. I haven't seen this year's final stats, but it seems like the offense has...

There was some smoke after Collins was fired that some players weren't happy with the way it was done and thinking about leaving, wonder if there's any link for players who announce before the coach is hired.

At this point it seems there may be no good options. Even the "money" just is pushing for Key? That means that there just isn't that much money, vs being able to compete with other P5 programs. So "he'll keep people from transferring" just isn't that great an argument for rolling with the...

I'm just skeptical that "trained to put up with arbitrary bull****" is such a great thing GT instills in students. In Sims' case, it wouldn't just be the BS - and having development hindered under Collins for too long without the school pulling the trigger is something I'd put in that category -...

I haven’t given a penny to the school since after several years of being a student the administration had made it quite obvious they weren’t interested in leaving options open for a student who didn’t know what he wanted to do right out of HS, so I transferred, done great everywhere since, and...

From a non-big-donor perspective I’m in the “rip the bandaid off” camp for one very simple reasons: the current “big money” people, if what’s reported is true, are used to getting their way but are not actually able to spend enough to make GT competitive on their own. The AD has been sinking...

This “hasn’t interviewed” kerfuffle feels like we’re in what I imagine the 1950s were like. I’d be shocked if interviews weren’t ongoing conversational things instead of binary “has”/“hasn’t” things. And if large amounts of this don’t happen over phone or video calls. Seems like a good thing...

I didn’t get the impression from the Cabrera statement after Stansbury was fired - possibly there was more later - that we had the money to go big. I got the impression that we wanted to do better but were on the wrong track, including financially, so that we were going to try to correct that...

I want someone to be able to choose their staff but I’d also want someone who, if given far more resources, is going to look for the best coordinators available to win rather than just staying in their network.

All the people who said Chadwell or BOB would be announced right after the game have to come up with a surprise reason he wasn’t 🤣
