[QUOTE="Bogey, post: 977637, member: 1999"] Dodd had Tech in the upper levels of college football and Tech was the darling of Atlanta. He knew with the scholarship limit he could not compete without yanking kids scholarships which he was not going to do. He had no reason to believe the rule would be lifted. There was no benefit at that time in delaying the decision to go independent with the Falcons soon to become Atlanta's team. Faulting him for not having a crystal ball is crazy. Fast forward and we did eventually end up where we belong in the ACC with similar minded schools with shared values and not becoming another Vandy in the SEC. Looking forward, no one can say for sure we would be better off being in the SEC than the ACC when the big bang occurs. As several have pointed out, the biggest blunder by far was not taking the B1G offer when it was offered. [/QUOTE]
