CPJ & Nebraska

[MikeJackets1967]

Plus he's not moving to Nebraska at 60. His wife would probably divorce him

Paul has it too good at GT right now he will be coaching the Yellow Jackets as long as he wants to CPJ's situation is similar to the situation of Coach Cutcliffe at Duke.

 

[UgaBlows]

You misspelled Georgia

No you're wrong, he said "no longer", ugag has never been elite

UGAG thinks they were elite from 1980-1983

He also coached at Hawaii, and at Navy...twice.

I think they'd have to throw GOBS of money at him, and give him a giant assistant coaches budget...as well as a big recruiting budget and whatever he wanted.

IMO, he's on the list, but not high on the list. CPJ going to Nebraska isn't likely, but you never know...

If you ask PJ about Hawaii, he'd go back ... as soon as they build that bridge.
He's got a place in the North Carolina mountains. Plus, in the offseason, he's got some good courses in the Atlanta area he can play.
think he's very happy where he's at. He was well off before he came to Tech. It won't be money that lures him to Nebraska. If he thinks he has a better chance of winning it all there than he does at Tech, he might consider it. But that means going through Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, et al, every year.

I'd be a little more concerned if Bozo was still AD instead of T-Stans.

 

[Jmonty71]

Nebraska is no longer an elite program with a fanbase that expects it to be.

So, they are basically like Ugag?

Except Nebraska has won titles since the Iran hostage crisis.

 

[TheSilasSonRising]

The top 10 most important things in Nebraska are -

1 - 10 Nebraska Football.

CPJ would not know how, or would not be able to put up with the constant coverage / questions / critiques of his football team 12 months out of the year.

Plus Nebraska also demands a certain level of D prowess..

 

[Oldgoldandwhite]

Once Nebraska quit recruiting pillars of the community like Lawrence Phillips and the Peter Bros. the program has really declined.

I see what you did there. I thought the same thing.

 

[Vespid]

I don't know. We have a new, and relatively young, AD who is in his dream job and barring some scandal isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Said AD and PJ seem to be on the same page. If bobsquatch was still here, I could see it. But not now. PJ almost has the machine on cruise control and he has worked very hard to get it there. I'd be shocked if he down shifted at this point when he just got to flat land.

Can't remember what exactly when it was but on one of the radio shows, CPJ mentioned he had "numerous" job offers after 08-09 and never considered even one of them. Even said they were 'major FBS' programs.

One of them was Auburn.

One of them was Auburn.

It was AUB after 09 season. I'm afraid AUB is now an igniting dumpster fire and thy might come back after him. They can't handle bear's boys winning everything all the time.

Auburn will probably be 10-2 and you don't fire a 10 win head coach

That school in Louisiana did.

If he turned them down before, why would they even bother coming back around? Clearly he doesn't view Auburn as a better place than GT.

 

[heyhellowhatsup]

CPJ is a lot closer to retirement than he is to taking another job.

 

[gtpi]

given what cpj has done with our gpa grad rate etc and the fact that navy was a similar situation.... i see coach actually enjoying working for a reputable athletic department and an quality academic institution.

maybe im wrong but i kinda think coach views those kids as his own sons and gt is a GREAT EDUCATION to have bar none.

so... NO.... i dont see coach leaving. i think we are a great fit for each other. imo

 

[gtg936g]

I think (don't know) that Paul will retire at GT. He has put GT in a really good position to make a run at the playoffs, and I think that he wants to make a run at it before he retires.

CPJ has said GT is his last job !!!!!!
