Bobby Dodd said in his book that if GT would have been in the Northeast they would have been a power like Penn State used to be because the High Schools were much better than they were in the South.
Those type of coaches along with mid major head coaches and up and coming assistants are the people GT can afford to hire in my opinion. I don't believe GT could outbid a major college football team for their head football coach.
The Tech football program probably would have been in much better shape with Bill as head coach throughout the mid-late 1970s than the way Pepper had it.
People are getting sick of the racist Kapernick crap that the players are doing with the support of the NFL Commissioner. I believe the ratings are going to keep falling unless the NFL addresses the anger of the fans. It would be nice if the attendence to the games would start falling as well.
Another coach i like and might be worth Tech's time to interview if they're looking for another head coach is Matt Rhule the head coach of Temple. He's done a heck of a job making a poor Temple program good enough to be going to two Bowl games in a row and three this December.
The UGAG fans will have their knives for Kirby Goff after 2017 when his teams don't win more than 8 games and i think he'll have his contract bought out or he'll be fired outright when UGA has another 8-4 type season in 2018.
That's true teams and coaches hate teams they can't beat and they love teams and coaches they can beat. Every coach in the SEC loved Derek Dooley ;) Hopefully the GT football program will be rising up very soon;)
I remember Bobby unintentionally insulting Ole Miss Coach Johnny Vaught in an episode from the late 1940s. GT paid a lot to visiting teams in the SEC back in those days and Vaught begged Bobby to schedule them as one of GT's home games. Bobby Dodd told Johnny Vaught that GT could make more money...
Bart Starr was a tough man taking all the verbal abuse he got from Vince Lombardy. He told Vince that he couldn't be leader of the team and have Vince cussing him out in front of the team. After that they alway had their cuss out sessions in an office away from the team.
