[QUOTE="JacketFan137, post: 936445, member: 5973"] i have certainly heard a few different things from different coaches particularly in the metro atlanta area. i’m just a guy on the internet, not kelly q or ken suguira and my sources could be bs, but what i’ve heard is basically that paul johnson was reluctant to recruit some of the metro football factory high schools and didn’t have fantastic relationships with all of them. many of these coaches weren’t exactly thrilled about the option either and wanted their guys going to play for SEC schools/clemson/whoever running spreads. none of the coaches were gonna turn down a kid that wanted to go to tech but they didn’t feel like paul johnson and the tech staff during that era really went out of their way to get some of their athletes that they felt like could have been good players at tech. now my sources are also pretty biased cause their families are major supporters of some big southeastern schools so they always talk down about tech, so maybe it’s not quite as bad as they described. that being said i know for a fact paul johnson did not show face at all at my former high school for years at a time, and we were a powerhouse school always in the hunt for state (would say who but some of the users here worry me). it really lead to me personally having a lot of questions about whether his heart was really in recruiting the last few years.
