[QUOTE="Heisman's Ghost, post: 580646, member: 4015"] Curry's seniors did not like Coach Ross and it was a matter of a change in culture that resulted in that transition's problems which were considerable. Bobby Ross, George O'Leary, and Paul Johnson are the three best coaches at Tech in over a half century. They did about as well as could be expected with the limitations they had to deal with. It would be difficult to pick one of the three as the best but Coach Ross was the only one to win a national championship so maybe he was the best. As far as difficulty in transitioning, Coach Curry had, in my estimation, the most difficult challenge of any of them. Awful facilities, terrible recruiting, poor image state wide, inadequate academic support, very little talent or depth, just a bad situation all the way around but he was a Tech Man and knew what he was getting into and managed to revive a program that many thought was just about finished. His motto was taken from Churchill: "Never, Never, Never, Quit!" His jackets took that to heart. [/QUOTE]
