I think the knock on the FCS coaches and specifically Chadwell, is the recruiting side. Can those FCS guys tackle the academic challenges and the hill at tech? Who knows. The concern with a FCS guy is they can take about anyone they want without an issue, that’s not the case at the P5 level and...
Here’s the vision with McGee:
You hire McGee and surround him with top coordinators that are paid at a high amount, over $1 million per year. You’ve seen that really really succeed for Dabo at Clemson early on, Urban Meyer and most recently and known, Sam Pittman. Pittman was the uga O line...
The problem is, Can tech afford a guy that has that HC experience at the P5 level? Everyone likes to point at Chadwell but the real question is, will he be able to recruit at tech? It’s been said that while at coastal, he’s taken guys regardless of grades/off the field issues, etc. McGee is a...
In 5 seasons while at UGA, McGee has produced four 1,000 yard or more running backs. In 2018 he was named rivals top recruiter in college football, he has signed 34 recruits that were tabbed a 4 star or better while at uga. While at southern in 2014-2015, he had his running backs group lead the...
IMO the part about not being a coordinator or a HC before at the college level is a little overblown. Dabo, Sam Pittman, Urban Meyer, etc all lacked the HC and/or coordinator experience but still got HC jobs and have exceeded at a very high level.
Dell won a state championship as a HC in the state. McGee was 88-19 as a HS head coach, six region championships. He restored a Carber program in 2005 that had not had a winning season in the 9 years before that and had never finished a season with double digit wins in its program history. Was a...
I know some people in the higher ups at tech from meeting people throughout the years at games and having connections from being an Alumni of the school. I’ve met a handful of the higher up people and donors at away tech games, including a few at the ACC basketball championship game.
Money people at tech are the boosters, most famously Gregg Garrett, is the one trying to make everything happen quickly in terms of a buyout and firing of Collins. Gregg wanted to fire Collins at the end of last year but not everyone was on board. Zelnak and Garrett hold the most power in the...
Dell is very very highly thought of in this state. In a time where tech isn’t thought of that highly within the state by HS coaches due to Collins on the field performance, McGee would bring a lot of respect and relationships with the high schools in Georgia.
The money people at tech and the people who will hold the most power in this coaching search have discussed McGee and his name keeps circling around within that group of people. There is a very good chance McGee would take the job if it was offered to him.
Watch out for Dell McGee for HC. I’ve heard some rumblings from some people that have some authority within tech athletics. I can expand on this a little bit more if people would like to know.
My local Marshall’s gets random tech adidas items that I haven’t seen sold anywhere else. I’ve had good luck there. Kohls always has a good selection of tech stuff and a good amount of the time it’s on clearance.
