[QUOTE="GTRambler, post: 523320, member: 4009"] Jojakt is absolutely correct. This is a strength for Georgia Tech, and it needs to be a major focus of its pitch to prospective high school football recruits. I believe this focus on academics has been emphasized in GT’s recruiting efforts for many years in the past, including the last 11 under CPJ’s tenure. What has been missing, however, is a much greater commitment in money and staff to strengthen these recruiting efforts, and actually make these efforts on a nationwide rather than a limited regional scope. This is why I proposed, in my earlier Goals, Objectives and Strategies post, a major fund-raising program to hire at least 10 additional high school football “talent scouts” and spread them out regionally throughout the nation, and then maintain this nationwide 10-scout recruiting staff annually thereafter. With these additional resources (funding and staffing), the GT football program would be able to sign a greater number of high-caliber student-athletes to football scholarships. Sadly, the majority of the posters within this thread did not seem to be seriously interested in my suggestion. Most of the respondents went off on unrelated tangents. [/QUOTE]
