[QUOTE="AlabamaBuzz, post: 665798, member: 906"] I know this is unpopular & many fans (& to some degree alums) don’t want to hear it, but I must communicate the truth about the Institute of which I love. GT is a STEM school with much more in common with US military academies, Cal Tech, Colorado School of Mines, MIT, etc. We have very, very little in common with VPISU, Clemson, Bammer, UGAG, Florida, Ohio St., Michigan, etc. Those are all liberal arts colleges that have HUGE fanbases including tons & tons of non-alums. My 40 years of experience tells me we have to recruit & coach & do different things to compete in big boy football, & this has become even more pronounced in the last 10 years. We are who we are with a dwindling fanbase. I think trying to out-factory the factories will never work, but I hope I am wrong. I love that GT, a limited major, rigorous STEM school tries to compete in big boy football, but we are not going to change who we are, & I would not want it any other way. [/QUOTE]
