Are there any "severely anti-tech" coaches out there? Of course there are plenty that are fans of other schools, but any that would steer a kid away from Tech even to the kid's detriment?
I remember a play from several years ago where Milton ran alongside of Tyler Marcodes as Marcodes returned a pick six. Tyler is very athletic and he was going top speed down the east sideline....FWIR Milton was passing him running basically sideways and backwards. It was impressive.
Plus that section of the stadium was in really bad shape....bordering on unsafe if I remember correctly. It was never full and seldom even occupied except when we played Auburn, Tennessee or the dwags.
The problem with Koonin's approach is that the Hawks do not have to contend with their main "zero sum" rival occupying the same geographic and media market.
Tech's biggest (at least in spirit) rival already dominates the marketplace. It is harder to build a fanbase without an alabama type run...
They can watch themselves enjoying an OV to Tech and all the perks and trappings of being recruited....and at the very end they can watch themselves sign with the dream school they have followed since they were a kid.

There are plenty of things in life that are none of anyone's business, but the simple yes or no of whether a valued contributor to a public website will or will not be returning is a valid question.

What the board seems to be looking for is an answer like one of the following:
1. Yes...
My feeling is that everything will be ok as long as they hire anyone other than Tom Herman. Got a nasty feeling that if he is the guy we may be in for a long bunch of years.
Trust me as a 40 year Tech fan, I understand, but it seems the media's memory is very short. In fact, I think 20 years is ancient history to them.
As someone who suffered through the 1-9-1 and 1-10 seasons, I can understand your frustration . I remember how thrilled I was with 6-5 in 1982.
The problem is that historically Vandy has been horrible. Pitt has been horrible, IU has been horrible. Over the past almost 20 years Tech has not been horrible. Consecutive bowl streak etc. I don't blame the media for ignoring horrible teams....my problem is the discrepancy between Tech's on...
I have long maintained that there is not another program in the country that has a bigger discrepancy between its performance on the field and the amount of "love" or coverage it receives from its local and especially state media.
If someone can point out a program that gets it worse in its...
