The issue you're having is comparing Johnson with previous head coaches rather than comparing him to his contemporaries. Every coach has access - though probably not unfettered - to a private plane. And every school has tutors. And if Tech didn't increase the budget for assistants, they'd...

If there's anything with which Tech fans could sympathize with UGA fans, it's injuries and class separation. They played 22 freshmen this year. Not as many as we did, but a considerable number. That affects things. Second, they have issues with bunching in recruiting. Their class in...

Believe the number is roughly $3.5MM over next four years, though this year's payment may have already been made.

Power rankings were - and remain - fundamentally silly, as there's no objective criteria by which to judge them. It's true that colleges used to play fewer games a season, but it was only one game, and even then some years they played 12 (specifically when there were 13 weekends between Labor...

Let's just hope we don't have to find out who the third and fourth string players are next year.

You're assuming the level of competition has remained the same. Gailey coached in an ACC with a down FSU and Clemson and North Carolina. So down, in fact, that Wake Forest won the conference (against Gailey's team, ironically enough). No one is suggesting Johnson walks on water or that...

That's a pretty good run at a non-traditional football school. Not sure they could reasonably expect better, so I'm unsure why it seemed like there was so much eagerness to get rid of Ferentz.

Even if Johnson is allowed to recruit at the NCAA minimum (which I seem to recall that he is), it doesn't change the fact that there are limited majors and, more importantly, the kids with whom the athletes are in class are as talented as ever. I'm not certain I'd even get admitted to Tech...

As I understand it, one of the kids decommitted (you won't believe the autocorrect suggestions I get on that non-word), and one of them we parted with because of an incident with campus PD. I certainly share your concern, but I won't allow myself to be too worried about the whims of a 17 year...

I think this is the point I tried (and failed) to make. Thanks for putting it into words better than I.
