[QUOTE="potatohead, post: 451783, member: 107"] CPJ will win no awards for how he handles the press. 50 years ago, nobody would care. Unfortunately, today people do care how the coach (CEO) represents the program in public. It's unfortunately a part of the job and in large part why a head coach 50 years ago toes would curl if they saw modern day compensation. I'm happy with CPJ, very happy. As a coach, how could you find someone better? I do agree with some posters in this thread who think it sounds like he's dogging the program and expectations. Lots of people complain about Braine when he made that comment about Tech football, but they sound kinda similar. I wish we had his coaching prowess and experience with a more forward thinking, salesman-type coach. I used to make fun of Dabo relentlessly, but I got to admit, he does a helluva job selling his program and his excitement is contagious. That type of attitude rubs off on potential new fans and recruits. All that said, nobody will ever be the perfect fit and i think CPJ will go down as one of the all time greats for us. Over the past 10 years or so, he has been getting more pessimistic it seems. In my world (tech start ups), you routinely find companies that disrupt industries. These companies are underfunded, undermanned, but are agile and driven to create superior products compared to the "big boys". I'm not saying this is an apples to apples comparison, I'm just saying there will always be "haves" and "have nots", so I'd advise CPJ to continue to push administration to get closer to the competition (he already has an AD that seems to get it), but keep that pushing behind closed doors. Nobody is going to mistake GaTech facilities for Clemson's or Alabama's, no need to remind the world how far behind we are...The message our coach should exude is the same message his assistants demonstrate frequently on their twitter feed, that Ga Tech is a great place to be. **Disclaimer** There are posters on this board that would throw themselves in front of a bus for CPJ. I get it, and let me apologize in advance for offending you. Please re-read my post and understand how much I admire what Coach has done for the program. This post was merely a comment on things I wish certain things could be improved. Whether you're a CEO or a janitor, every single person has areas to improve and our coach is surely no exception.
