[QUOTE="SOWEGA Jacket, post: 760123, member: 4334"] My strong belief is that we have no idea until he can recruit an offensive line that isn’t a sieve and defensive players who can run and tackle. He’s had 1 recruiting class of his own. And the one thing GT has needed for decades is a marketeer. You obviously don’t talk to high school athletes or coaches. I do as my son is a senior high school football player in South Georgia, And let me say, prior to our marketeer arriving on the scene, players nor coaches even gave GT football a glance. I had a coach tell me, as I was wearing my GT hat, that the only players he would push towards GT were those who had lower tier offers. He said legit D1 players, even fringe types, had so many better options than Johnson in this area. He even said there’s a reason Johnson succeeded in D2 but couldn’t replicate it at GT. Point being, no one in the football arena from players to coaches really care about academics. It’s all lip service. They want to be prepped for the NFL because they all believe they are going. GT football is not special in this regard. We are 1 of a dozen D1 programs in this area that kids now look at. We need a marketeer desperately. [/QUOTE]
