[QUOTE="Bruce Wayne, post: 86898, member: 231"] Yeah [USER=360]@Techster[/USER] and [USER=11]@kg01[/USER], I thought of that because Cutcliffe does specifically praise D Thomas and "name drops" him as someone he has worked with through Peyton so he is letting it be implied that he knows as "fact" that Bey Bey would not have chosen Tech. I think Bey Bey actually addressed that before in interviews and said he "probably wouldn't have" gone to Tech if recruited by CPJ originally. But that is not all he has ever said. Even if that is true or stated as such by Bey Bey, Dwyer, Nesbitt, Andrew Gardner, Michael Johnson, or anyone else who was here before CPJ then those guys still all [I]stayed[/I]. One way or another they were all likely concerned when CPJ was hired and many of them had to be convinced to stay. But Bey Bey in particular both stayed and shone out in the offense and ended up the first wide receiver taken in the draft. He bought in and I have never heard him criticize the offense or CPJ from then to now. Cheese can tell us who of the top tier athletes already here did make some negative comments about the possible impact of the offense on his professional career. :) I would be hard pressed to believe that D Thomas would buy the load of horse hockey Cutcliffe is spewing in this presser though. He says there is [I]no reason [/I]for any big time receiver to choose to play for CPJ but if nothing else there are whatever reasons [I]actually did [/I]persuade Bey Bey to stay. And then Cutcliffe seriously wants to be dismissive of Smelter, Waller (even Summers and the rest)? Really tees me off . . . So no receiver since Calvin or Bey Bey at Tech is anywhere close to those two? Ok, so what? Why is that a surprise? The [I]exact same[/I] is true at basically every single college you can name. Certainly UGA, certainly Duke. Arguably at even Alabama despite Julio Jones. Seriously, in the time since Thomas has left Tech how many schools can claim to have had 2 or [I]even just one[/I] receiver equal to either of them? [/QUOTE]
