[QUOTE="kg01, post: 840541, member: 11"] Can we plaster this on the board? Like each thread or something? Can we make it one of those annoying pop-ups that you have to click before entering? These are some of the most salient words ever spoken on the subject. Nobody's happy with our situation but that doesn't mean a firing is the cure-all. More often than not .. I repeat .. more often than not, you're just importing a different problem and paying a hefty price to do so. Does that mean you should be scared to make a change? Heck, no. But it means you have to move based on a process, not emotion - which is all we as fans are basing our feelings on. People act like the LSU's and Texas's and USC's of the world aren't out here missing out on their top candidates every year. You think GT is gonna land their a-1 candidate if we make a change? No, we're gonna end up with a guy likely 6 or 7 names down the list. So all these people with the typical "oh we'll just hire [I](insert hot-shot assistant)[/I] and go bowlin' in year 1" nonsense need to wise up. It's more like, "oh we [I]were [/I]gonna hire this guy, but his agent was just using us to get an extension, so we moved on to this guy who turned us down to go to this factory, then we pivoted to this other dude that pulled out last minute, but it's ok 'cause we ended up with this other dude who we needed to pay a 7-figure buyout to get him even though his current job really wanted to fire him." Try to say that "sentence" in one breath. But that's the most likely scenario. And it's not defeatist or 'woe is Tech' thinking. That's what happens to the Texas's of the world nowadays. What in the actual F do people think it'll be different for us? Only difference is we're offering far less money than them places. Are people [I]sure [/I]a firing is a step in the right direction? I don't think they're thinking this thing past, "AhIhateCGCsoIwannafire'im!" It's like a friggin dog chasin' a car. What TF is he gonna do if he ever catches one? He's got no idea. [/QUOTE]
