Unfortunately, this is factually incorrect. It took a couple of years for Matt Rhule to get Temple right. Temple won 10 games in 2015 and 2016, the two years preceding Collins. Temple then won 7 and 8 games under Collins. I'm hopeful that if Temple wins 10 again this year, that we did not hire the coach who would have overseen the under-performing blip in Temple's recent history.
He will be here two seasons no doubt.......but if the losing continues with the sideline clown show........it won't be any more.
If it will not be possible for CGC to break .500 over a three year period, after year two......Tech will not be able to afford to keep him.
I hope my wife learns to cook but both will not happen .
Is that 8 wins in the next 7 years?
You might have better odds with the wife and cooking
Hyperbole aside, this aligns with my concern. I hope that CGC rights the ship and we win some games this year, but next year's schedule is rough. If we are some combination of 6-18 over his first two years, that 3rd year will have to see significant improvement to keep people off his seat. Worst case, if we go 2-10 this year and 3-9 next year, he might be gone. Hopefully, it doesn't come to that. I don't want him to leave, I just want him to stop with the gimmick stuff and get a new OC.
Unfortunately, I don't think we have time. We were expected to be down this year, but certainly not like what we saw yesterday. If he doesn't get things in order FAST, neither he nor GT football will survive.
What does that support look like after yesterday? What will that support look like if we finish 2-10 this year and Ugag fans are clowning our coach? Certainly, the pressure would be increased, correct?
I doubt a single one of those who wanted to give him time thought we would lose to a 0-2 FCS team in his first year. I wonder how many of those "behind the scenes" might be reconsidering their thoughts now. I think I would be.
You are Correct...looked it up Mike Leech at WSU lost to Portland State in 2015 and Eastern Washington in 2016.. Both games were opening games of the season and WSU went bowling each year.... Along with Temple last year.... Maybe Georgia Tech will finish strong and go bowling after this loss..
Nor 6.
The only problem I have with him is his pick for OC . We will see if he makes a change after this season. ( also not crazy about dancing and jumping up and down on the sidelines losing to a FSC team) and he has got support but if anyone thinks he is safe for 7 years if we keep losing their opinions are poo poo and those who would still support him will need lots of money to keep this program going.
To some extent, we all do, and I bet you do too.
