[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 761668, member: 265"] You've made a common mistake. You are equating [I]having the qualifications [/I]to get into Tech with [I]wanting to go there[/I]. These are two very different things and always have been. And the reason doesn't have much to do with not being "attracted to GT football" either. The problem is that Tech is still a technical institute, not a general university (like ND, btw). Sooner or later at Tech you will run into requirements that you won't run into at, say, Ugag or Bama or UNC or da U. And those requirements are tough; that's why we have such an extensive tutorial program for athletes. We've been over this here I don't know how many times. Now, you can ignore all of this; obviously, you have. But that almost defines magical thinking, imho. Tech has overcome it's curriculum problem many times in the past; shoot, we had a really good recruiting class just last year. But I doubt we can do so consistently over time. What Tech has always needed is coaches who can work around that and win. We'll see if Collins can. Btw, there's no need for a "Mr." here; just regular old TTP will do fine. [/QUOTE]
