I think my biggest concern is the empty recruiting class this year. He did good things with last year's class and if he'd built on that I'd feel pretty optimistic

Banks and Cole played well together

I'd rather bring in a good recruiter and coach from a level below us. Hiring a guy with no record or a mediocre record because they are Tech men doesn't excite me

There is some serious cherry-picking here. I'm not sure you know what a 'fact' is vs an 'opinion'. I could make the same list of 'key losses' for any team other than the top 5-10 and it would look similar. I'm not sure why the TO generated such hate from some fans. Granted, I'm a fan of it...

I think the rule changes over the last few years related to blocking have hurt PJ's version of the TO. It made it much harder to get home run plays on the outside. Without those plays, we have a much smaller margin of error trying to drive the length of the field.

To be fair, Memphis hasn't looked much better since he left

Donation made. My heart goes out to him and his family . Really puts all of our coaching arguments into sharp perspective.

I'm convinced he's a winner but unfortunately I don't have any faith Pastner will surround him with a team and game plan that will show him to win in college

Not really a rivalry

With an NBA player on the wing and a playmaker at center

I'd rather have Tony Elliott. Seemingly bigger upside I don't know why, but Collins feels a bit like a Gregory hire to me. That's probably unfair to him

I wonder how many of us will be watching more Navy and Army football to get a TO fix? I expect I probably will. I've grown to love watching it over the last 11 years and will miss Tech running it.

This part doesn't sound realistic to me ;)

I think CCG's HS connections were exaggerated. It really takes a lot of time and relationship building. That's one of the reasons someone like Elliott is intriguing. He's been on the ground making those connections, so you'd hope the upswing in recruiting could happen more quickly.

I'm guessing he wants to step up and this is a good time - two really good years at App St. I wonder if this means we never reached out to him. UL has $$$ and easy recruiting, but most coaches seemed really leary of the situation right now.

Remains to be seen whether the Hardaway experiment will actually work. I have my reservations.

You can track that in the last table. Outside of the monster 2007 class, it looks like the two were close.

That's fine, but what else do we have to judge him on other than his NFL experience? One of the complaints many of us have is his lack of college coaching experience.

The ACC definitely has the ability to apply pressure to the bowls, esp the lower tier ones. It bogles my mind that UVa, Wake, BC, and Miami are better draws than us. Only UM has any sort of national rep for TV, and I don't think any will send more fans to a game that we would have.

I'm pretty sure I saw 8,000 tickets at $100 a piece. GTAA is going to take a huge hit. I expect the fans who are going to buy tickets on the open market for <<<<<<GTAA prices. We've all learned over the last 15 years that GTAA tickets are overpriced and usually in terrible seats.
