[QUOTE="GTRX7, post: 471891, member: 1045"] How is this thread still going? Would it be better if CPJ had better relationships with the local media? Sure. Is the local media likely to spend more time talking about Georgia Tech if CPJ is nicer to them? Maybe marginally, but probably not unless we are not also winning big. And, even then, Tech is given short shrift compared to UGA, the Falcons, and the Braves, even in our best seasons. Is a marginal amount of more coverage likely to make any meaningful difference in attendance figures or convert other sports fans to follow Georgia Tech? Probably not. So, yes, it would be nice. But no, it would not make any real difference. As others have pointed out, sports talk radio is just not a big medium among anyone under 40 anymore. And I am guessing most adults over 40 who are listening to sports talk radio already have allegiances to teams, and are not looking to pick up a new team just because they get 5 more minutes of radio coverage a day.
