[QUOTE="WreckinGT, post: 142203, member: 147"] I agree with the overall premise of the article. The decision is made. It's time to be fans and support the team. I strongly disagree with some of the points though. For one, I don't see why you would ever give someone credit for almost winning. That kind of mindset will leave you in mediocrity forever. The point of the game is to try and win and I disagree that it could have easily been 22-9. We lost all 11 of our close ACC games for a reason. It wasn't dumb luck. If you want to give him credit for almost beating a good Notre Dame team then he should receive pretty harsh criticism for blowing games against bad VT and BC teams. Two, I disagree that no one said anything to suggest that Robert Carter left GT because of Gregory. He specifically said that he left because he didn't think he was developing well as a player here. I don't know how you don't attribute some of that to the coach. He was going to be a starter and the best player on an ACC team and he gave it up because he didn't think he was developing well. It was a pretty bad smack in the face to Gregory and GT. Three, I disagree that he developed Tadric Jackson well. When Tadric was struggling early in the season he mostly put him on the bench and forgot about him. The only reason he got more playing time later is because Bolden got suspended. Tadric was playing awful for a while so you have to question how well he was being coached and it is more than fair to question if throwing him on the bench most of the season was the best approach to help him improve. Hopefully he makes strides next year, but judging by the development of our other players, im not optimistic that it will happen. All that said, I will still root for the team in every game they play next year, and I agree that continuing to complain about the situation does no good. I'm not going to sugar coat Gregory's performance though. He was awful this year, and not very good before that. Hopefully he finds some way to turn it around. I will gladly get on his side if he improves things to an acceptable level. [/QUOTE]
