[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 362901, member: 2426"] #1 I think a lot of people take what other people say and make it mean what they want it to mean. GT does a very good job of competing on the field most of the time with factory schools. GT cannot recruit some of the people that factory schools recruit. GT cannot afford the facilities and staff that factory schools have. GT can't compete with Clemson's $55 million football facility. However, GT can be competitive on the field. Too many people try to push their beliefs into what other people say instead of trying to understand. #2 GT does have a lot of wealthy alumni. GT also has some not so wealthy alumni. Many students at GT, at least when I was there, were more concerned with school than with sports. It isn't a large percentage of the students that go to games, football or basketball. Alumni donate very generously to the academic side of the school. Life as a student at GT just did not rotate around parties and sports. Many of the alumni could care less about sports. I do pay attention, I do donate to the athletic department, and I do go to games. #3 I am happy to have all of the GT fans, alumni or not, that GT can have. However, a true fan does not say that we are no better than an FCS team. FULL STOP. [/QUOTE]
