Thanks for this... adds valuable missing context for me! I haven’t seen grades posted, just relative “ranking” based on grades. This almost works like the old kindergarten grading scale... excellent, satisfactory, unsatisfactory, needs improvement If they guy across from you is physically...

Which is why it’s mind boggling to me that we would chase anyone for their recruiting ability to a major P5 program. I’m not saying that is all Key brings to the table, BTW... just pontificating on other “candidates” being tossed around here.

Culturally and geographically, probably so. Wonder if he’s up for that big of a project...

I agree with this and said the same somewhere on here.... if I didn’t, I meant to! :D Key is going to have to be a “no brainer” of a hire with a new AD coming. I really think he needs to win #6 against the Canes in front of an excited crowd at BDS. Maybe a groundswell of support gets him a...

I thought Mendenhall was allergic to the eastern time zone or something... I don’t know if he’s done with football or just done with the east coast but it doesn’t seem like a fit either way.

I want all of this to be right. I say this on a “high” with a sample size of ONE, but I want it to be right. I like the idea of Key being successful and being retained. However, the reality of the situation is this team has to win big and Key has to be a no-brainer. I don’t know exactly what...

Thats fair, and I agree completely. "No hope" of winning may be a stretch, but we are a team that consistently plays down to the level of competition (I hope I can say "were" but the jury is still out on that). Every game was going to be a struggle, so every game was in considerable doubt. On...

He handled it really well, and it was a good presser. I thought the only time he kind of "broke character" was when they were asking about King and I think he was right in wanting confirmation before he talked about an injury. The response from someone off camera was something like, "you can...

Interesting to hear Elko talk about how disciplined their D wanted to be with Armstrong and that their focus was to keep contain and get hands in passing lanes. They knew how dynamic he could be moving around and getting out of the pocket. Based on what we have seen on our side, I would...

I was reading between those same lines…

;)

you dont want to go west coast? Maybe a nice honeycomb pattern in a contrasting stain? no fun. :)

Right... I’m including S&C and player development in the coaching aspect. Recruiting is the differentiator between the 7-8 wins or the double digit wins. Recruiting is not how you build something enduring... especially when all of these kids seem to have a “go bag”packed for when the bag of...

Yeah... I was thinking about this yesterday and I guess this is as good a place as any to post my thoughts. I’m thrilled with the outcome and a lot of what I saw Saturday especially given all that is going on around the program but I can’t shake the feeling that we’ve seen this before... So is...

Not disagreeing (well not completely) but this needs perspective. I think the primary needs are system / process / culture (not even remotely talking about formations or run pass percentage; don’t take it there) accountability, development, leadership and continuity (this one is very under...

I thought the original hypothetical in which a nfl organization, coach and gm gave Johnson the reins and drafted / staffed for his offense was sufficiently implausible enough that my sarcasm would be obvious. For what it’s worth, if anyone did reach that point, I’m pretty sure you could find...

Yeah, that’s the only thing holding it back

I think the number of wins the program aspires to is irrelevant. When donors are able to buy influence, its a problem. That was the point... I am thankful there are people able and willing to donate to Tech at that level, but I don't want them making decisions for the program.

Agree. It actually is quite a similar scenario! Key’s three years here have not been impressive (for whatever the reason) but it’s an odd argument that we should “consider his resume” but then only include what he has done here.
