[QUOTE="JacketFromUGA, post: 252679, member: 2101"] I can tell you that the two biggest detractors (besides academics, and stadium) from recruiting when talking to my former students are [LIST=1] [*]The perception that "Tech Sucks." It doesn't matter we're in the OB. "Yea but they still suck." This was the same argument with Chan and it's the same argument with CPJ. I chalk it up to being the little brother, not the offense. [*]The classic complaints of the offense. Chop blocks, defense sucks because it practices it every day (even though HS use scout teams too the concept of scout teams is hard for kids and apparently announcers to understand,) Never have any big plays, don't throw at all, whatever the misinformed classic responses we hear about tech are processed through the media and then even less are remembered by people. If you don't actually watch Tech football then you believe everything you hear because why wouldn't you? [/LIST] That mindset is the biggest detractor and while it does spawn from the offense it's not truly a fair representation of the offense. Which is a hurdle the staff definitely has to put effort into educating recruits of the actual roles in the offense rather than what they see on sportscenter. [/QUOTE]
