[QUOTE="MidtownJacket, post: 896036, member: 959"] For my part, as a school with the mission of GT and a focus on academic rigor, we will not be competing successfully in an arms race against UGA/Clemson/Bama/Michigan/ND/etc. If our plan is follow their playbook and "out execute" we are hosed from the beginning. That is why I have been, and continue to be, an advocate for an identity built off a scheme centric coach. Be the ABSOLUTE BEST program in a specific scheme. I do not see a world where we are regularly contributing first rounders to the NFL Draft across the OL or DL. If you gave us a $250,00 dollars a player it would still be hard to do. Those type athletes are looking for a clear path to the league. Some of the College programs out there have legit NFL Training facilities/Coaching Development and when you throw in the academic course load we require for a degree it just doesn't make sense. You can't one and done as a college player so signing up when you know you're going pro if you don't have a freak accident, and could go first round if you get the right exposure makes a GT Value Proposition feel less attractive. If we look for a scheme that allows us to recruit guys who are different from what the factories hoover up then we at least have our choice of players at positions as opposed to trying to out recruit OL or DL against top 10 programs with 6 figure NIL Deals. I hope we see a move back to specialization in something as opposed to a belief in the path we have been down these last four years. I don't think we HAVE to be one dimensional with a air raid or 3O scheme, but the standard "spread pro-style" O isn't happening here. I just don't believe we can get the horses. [/QUOTE]
