CPJ needs to be fired

[Animal02]

I can deal with the season tickets sold to Mutt fans - if they can afford it and are willing, what can you do? My problem is when I see so many Stinger Seats occupied by Mutts. GT season ticket holders who sold out for the game. Not right. Not in my mind.

Maybe a surcharge for first year season ticket buyers that gets refunded when they purchase year two......exempting Tech Alumni? Something needs to happen to stop this every other year.

Tstan I believe will understand the ol fart/ alumni base is not going to energize a program.

I'm glad to have any Tech fan attend games but I took my fiance to the game vs Pitt. Do you know what her first reaction was ? By the way , this was her first Game Tech. Her reaction was " dang there sure is a lot of old men here today".

Look at the transition in high school many teams used to run the wing t. Most if not all have switched to a spread option. Thomson had much success in the 80’s with the wing but now run a more balanced offense and have had some good years again.

I have seen high school teams that run the wing-t. Other than the formation, they look nothing like the GT offense.

Oh yeah animal that’s gonna get fans in the stands. Realize as I have been told many times on here most of our alumni are NOT football fans. I’ll keep beating the drum of we need sidewalk fans but for some reason alumni feel we are beneath them.

My

I have an I said if it's run like Oklahoma or Nebraska in the 80's and 90's. Hell 2014 was just as good as those teams.

Johnson and his offense is a big problem with the D and the bad recruiting classes.

Whenever we hire a new HC, hiring someone to run this same O will be a financial, PR, recruiting, marketing disaster,

People, please wake up.

Nobody runs this O better than CPJ, and it is now a nightmare.

I didn't say we have to run everything Pj runs and you would be crazy to think someone in his coaching tree wouldn' have some more innovative ideas. Navy for example has actually gotten better as a program since PJ left. Army has won 8 games this year. Kennesaw State has done very well for a program just starting out. It' absurd to think PJ is the only person who knows how to run the option

I have reached out to Stansbury , hopefully I can get a conversation with him. I am 27 going on 28 and Tech is lucky to have did hard fans like myself after the Gailey years. I Stuck with them and it's in my blood now. My point of age was , Tech lacks " Swag" we lack energy and excitement. I have a few ideas that helped my high school team. Our little small town of 15,000 buzzes on Friday nights.

Galley years......lol, don’t even come close to the end years of Rodgers and beginning of Curry.

As it is now, we get opposing fans in the stands....would rather see empty seats than all that red

I am an alumnus. I have friends who are sidewalk fans. I would love to have more sidewalk fans.

If you think that alumni believe you are beneath them when they say that GT is a school first, I can assure you that it is not the case.

Gailey never played 3 teams that were in the top 2 at some point in the season did he? The league is WAY better now, so that's like comparing apples to oranges.

In other words, the rest of the teams in our league improved, but it’s ok for us not to?

I disagree ronjohn never felt that way till I stayed on this board for awhile.

PJ and his offense largely get a bad rep because we are not good in some games and we are almost always mediocre in the passing game. Generally, I happen to love the offense for the most part and I find it incredibly frustrating that PJ has refused to evolve into more of a valid passing attack. He has hitched his wagon in the passing game on relying on having to have a stud WR to have anything even resembling a competent passing game. If he wants to have some improvement in recruiting all he would have to do is try to get rid of the stigma associated with the offense by diversifying a little. Not a lot, just a little. But it is what it is. He's going to win or go down doing the same thing.

It was not that way in the late 90s. There is no excitement surrounding our program. The " sidewalk " fan doesn't want to come watch the option.

I'm a sidewalk fan with season tickets thats sits among other sidewalk fans with season tickets. I am not sure your assertion is correct.

 

[okiemon]

Beat UGA 2 of past 4 years, orange bowl win, win ACCCG. Are you telling me you would rather have Gailey over CPJ and not have these things? That were not accomplished with a lesser talented division when Gailey was here?

Why, every time someone calls for CPJ to leave, does someone ask if he’d rather have Gailey? Are those the only two coaches available to Ga Tech in the entire college football universe?

If some alumni feel it lessens their degree to offer more opportunities to other majors. Yep that’s an elitist I’m better than you attitude.

Yeah, and they got mud stomped a few weeks ago by a bad Burke County team and got beat to holy Hell by Blessed Trinity last night. They had WAY more success under center in the Wing-T than they have in duh spread.

Most are going to think I'm nuts. But at 55,000 our Stadium is too large for our fan base. Face facts the only time we sell out is uga , Clemson , or someone like ND. When we were at 46,000 or 48,000 even the bad games we had 44,000. 44,000 looks better in a stadium the seats 46,000 then one that seats 55,000. It could give us back our home field and looks better to recruits and on TV. Yes I know you can take down part of the stadium but want you could do is take out the bench seats and put chair seats to give the fans more room. Don't know about Y'all and maybe I'm too fat but my big bottom don't fit in the 30 inches they give us now. And who knows maybe they could add $5 to the price of the tickets if people were comfor

And whose fault is that? The other teams in the league have added support staff and facilities. GTAA is having a huge fundraiser this week and so far less than 300 people have donated. The athletic department will not have the money to compete with the other schools unless the game step up and help them.

Showing your ignorance there. Played in state last year and went to 3rd round this year.
