    Media Day

    Wow on the comment about Chris Griffin. He should be thanked for this time and service to the team and GT. Let's hope he gets his degree as that will provide opportunities for the rest of his life.

    GT Hoops General Topics

    I mentioned it before and will say it again, having professional players like Jack and Howard working out at Tech can be a boost to recruiting.

    If true, that increases the likelihood of Heyward coming back. I would have guess that he may have been 'asked' to give up his scholarship, if needed this year. All the best to TJ with his future. Too bad he got injured so early in his career here as he never seemed to recover from that.

    Jarrett Jack.....

    Hope he fully recovers from his surgery as this could be a huge pickup for the Hawks. The thought of him also coming (and possibly practicing) around campus should also help with recruiting.

    I thought we were favorites to land Randolph Morris, who eventually signed with Kentucky.

    Jameis Winston

    A colleague at work coached Jameis in Little League. He indicated he was a great kid, athletically gifted along with being a very good student. He also comes from a good family. As I look back on my life, I did some things I was not proud of however didn't have social media to publicize what...

    Articles like this make me wonder about those that were harsh about him after the hiring. He was a 31 y/o first time coach following a legend. He made mistakes and can admit them, especially with respect to his staff. A GT basketball fan has to be impressed with the staff he has put together...

    NCAA Oversight Committee Looking into

    Would you limit this to the head coach or also the position coach that may have been involved in the recruitment?

    The assistant coach’s salaries demonstrate a financial commitment to improving the coaching and teaching aspects of basketball. I know there were some that wanted to see Sharman White of Miller Grove hired but given these salaries, it would have been tough to justify given he doesn't have any...

    Pastner on a Podcast

    Unfortunately we let the narrative put out by disgruntled people define a person without trying to understand them for ourselves. If CPast does something like this for former GT basketball players also, it will only strengthen the connection to the past.

    While everyone is entitled to their opinion, I think your HC grade is harsh at this time. If anything, the appropriate grade is an 'I' as we don't know how things will turn out. I'm willing to wait until his first full recruiting class to make an assessment as to the direction I think CPast...

    Reading his bio from the Georgetown site, he would be an impressive hire, http://www.guhoyas.com/sports/m-baskbl/mtt/tavaras_hardy_848329.html I like that it says that he can tech the game. Reading this suggests to me that we will recruit nationally while also looking to keep the top players...

    As we can see in the announcement above, Labarrie brings knowledge of what it means to be a student athlete at Tech. To me, that is a key filter in determining which student athletes to recruit. To me, it is more that simply looking at the GPA and standardized test scores. This isn't to say...

    No disagreement however during a slow news cycle, it could get more coverage than normal.

    The announcement would get lost in the football news cycle. The NFL are masters at marketing hence why football has become a 12 month event. I expect we should see announcements about hiring this week. Just a 'gut' feeling.

    This is exactly what I was thinking. Add to that, the hoopla with the NFL draft this past weekend, that would not have been a good time to make a college basketball assistant coach hiring announcement

    Are the Gregory holdover coaches considered to be still on staff or are they no longer working?

    Georgia Tech has hired Josh Pastner

    Overall, it looks like a pretty good contract. Here's hoping he will have the program on an incline with so much success that he can get it renegotiated by year 4.

    You've indicated you would like to see White and Huff. Is that one or the other or both?
