[QUOTE="Augusta_Jacket, post: 662760, member: 1191"] I think the problem is many people have different definitions of "talent." As far as recruiting rankings, it is no secret CPJ left a team less "talented" than the one he inherited. Our problem today is not lack of talent on offense, but lack of the specific talent needed to execute the scheme we are running. CPJ was able to coach the inherited players well enough to adapt them to his scheme quickly. CGC has had less success on that front, but it is not necessarily an indictment on him as a coach. I would posit that while it's not easy, it's less difficult to transition "normal" P5 recruits to an option heavy offense than the reverse. Personally, I think CPJ will end up being remembered fondly by most of our fans as seasons go by. I don't have a good read on CGC yet, but he has done nothing so far to make me regret his hire, and has shown some indications of progress on both the coaching and recruiting fronts. I say "some indication" on recruiting because any normal coach with a pulse should have improved recruiting at GT once we stopped recruiting 4-5 ABs a year and started recruiting completely different OL and WR types. CGC pushing towards top 25 is a hopeful sign. He has yet to land his first full class though, so I don't want to count the chickens yet. [/QUOTE]
