[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 214625, member: 1776"] I don't want to get into too much of a fist fight here but i'll give my views on Gregory, GT etc. First, Gregory is a wonderful human being. in many ways like Cremins in that no one says anything bad about him. i do appreciate that. Second, he did come in with a focus on making sure GT got it's academic house in order. GT was one bad semester away from being banned from the NCAA Tourney (it had already lost multiple scholarships). He made sure the SR that were there graduated - that doesn't always happen and in general the young men he has brought in are able to handle GT. Third, he is not an ACC caliber coach. That's not bad in and of itself. The ACC eats coaches for breakfast and spits them out. Gregory has been and would be fine at a mid major level - he simply isn't acceptable at the ACC level. Fourth, Gregory still has a job at GT because GT hasn't had the money (or as DTM might phrase it - it hasn't been willing to spend the money) to make a change. I don't think the AD is looking to make another $1MM hire (epsecially when the median price for an ACC coach is close to $2MM). When GT hasthe finances (or decides it wants to use the finances) to make a change it will. Until that point Gregory will remain the coach. Finally, i'm happy they had a better year this year. My belief after digesting what the financial situation is at GT was that Gregory would be around for at least 2 yrs (through next year). Knowing next year is likely to be a tough year to watch - it was nice to see some very good basketball played at times this year. Most of all i'm happy for MGH, who came in with the idea of getting GT back to where it had once been, that hasn't occurred, but not due to any lack of effort and growth on his part. He has been as fine a representative of GT as any basketball player that I have followed for 35 years. There is no doubt in my mind that GT needs to change coaches. I feel MBob would likely agree with that statement. The key becomes when can he make a change where he feels he can get a definite upgrade. When that time comes a change comes. [/QUOTE]
