And just because I was bored and did the math, GT will have to average 9 wins per year for the next 5 years in order to get to that mark because of how poor this season was...

You know it's interesting... I remember when we were recruiting him. He had a HUGE leg, but was only about a 50% field goal kicker in high school. I never checked to see if he was only kicking really long field goals in HS, which would contribute to that low percentage, but I thought it was...

Shoot, they all seem young to me these days... :)

LOL... I was debating whether or not I should say EXACTLY the same thing... :)

Thank you. You summed it up perfectly. By choosing the right strategy to transition away from the triple option, they were able to continue fielding a winning team, all the while having to transition to a higher division which put them a massive scholarship disadvantage.

You know, I think you have hit the nail on the head -- if you manage the transition away from the triple option correctly, you don't have to have a historically bad season. :)

Beat me to it... :)

After 10 seconds thought, here is one... Ga Southern - 2014... They lose Jeff Monken and move away from the triple option - which we all know is the greatest transition in the history of football. That same year, they moved from 1-AA up to 1-A... After this monumental transition, they had a...

So I am still curious, what will you consider acceptable?

So, if you say we only need to wait 1 year, what will you consider a minimum win total to be acceptable? Will you be happy with only 3 again?

Just so that I understand what you are asking. Are you requesting that we give CGC 5 YEARS (1 full recruiting cycle) before we expect him to field a competitive team - much less a winning one?

I am so glad this season is over... I have never looked forward to a season ending like I have this one...

63-0 bad guys :(

Is Syracuse our crossover game next year?

Who wants to give an over-under on 3 and outs? A bottom 5 offense against a top 5 defense is not a recipe for a happy day...

Thumbs us for the Sisyphus reference :)

I know and the the fact that the appeal was to himself was just the icing on the proverbial cake. :)

Thanks, but that isn't necessary. All I'm after is trying to actually see some well thought out and reasoned debate. We could actually have some REALLY interesting conversations if people would state their case and support it rather than just throwing rocks at people they dislike...

So this particular logical fallacy is called appeal to authority... He recruited in the SEC, therefore he must be a good recruiter, therefore he must be able to recruit at Tech, therefore we must be better... As I said before, provide the proof where CGC has substantively improved recruiting...

Wow - I have perhaps never seen a more clearly defined case of the motte and bailey fallacy. Augusta Jacket and I were arguing two completely different points, yet you try to conflate the two in order to make an argument which refutes neither one...
