[QUOTE="Lee, post: 760087, member: 786"] I’ll refer you to [USER=4572]@JacketOff[/USER] response to you, but will add a few things directly related to what you brought up. Virginia Tech in 2018: 4-4 in conference and 6-7 overall UNC in 2018: 1-7 in conference and 2-9 overall Miami in 2018: 4-4 In conference and 7-6 overall. Virginia in 2018: 4-4 in conference and 8-5 overall. That’s a combined 13-19 in conference and 23-27 overall. You also conveniently left off big bad Duke who went 3-5 in conference. No clue what your last sentence is supposed to mean, but I’d stay away from Duke (who you again conveniently left out of your post for 2018). Paul beat them once in his last 5 years here. The time before that Vad Lee had to throw 4 td passes to beat them and Paul quickly told him not to get used to that after. I stand by my assessment of where we were trending at the end of PJ’s tenure versus where our competition was trending. And if you’re going to use the “we lost our starting bback” excuse. How about you factor in what we lost on Oline last year, lost our top returning WR, best DL, new QB, among others. The this year, our top RB returning missed several games, we’re starting a true freshman QB, lost several interior DL, and started the season with our best DB and top DE out for a few games. I’ll add 2018 was year 11 for PJ. Lack of depth is on him and his poor job recruiting and roster management. Collins has brought more talent of the offensive side of the ball in 1.5 recruiting classes than PJ did the whole time he was here. PJ was a great offensive play caller. He schemed well, made great adjustments in game, and usually called a great game. He could never put together a decent defense, special teams were always garbage (save Butker and Havin), and recruiting was bad at best. The game has changed and kids wanting to play in the NFL weren’t going to come to GT with us running his scheme. The game changed over his tenure to where you need those guys to be able to compete with the big boys. JT saved his job. He was special and made plays no other QB PJ brought in. That plus the combo of Smelter giving up baseball led to one of the greatest seasons in my GT fanhood. I’m thankful for that. I’m also wise enough to know he had to go and his version of option football was no longer going to work here. I’m thankful for the good times, but glad we’ve moved on. Collins might not be the guy (I still think he can be), but one thing is for certain, if he’s not, whoever comes after him will be walking into a helluva lot better situation than he had to. [/QUOTE]
