[QUOTE="dressedcheeseside, post: 377095, member: 77"] Any teams used to support your argument that existed prior to flunkgate, probation, APR and a vastly improved ACC are irrelevant. Recent success is not due to landing multiple blue chip athletes, though we've had a few. That success is due to having just enough of the right combination of ingredients all at the same time under the right coach in the right system. It's a recipe for success but much harder to sustain than having gobs and gobs of blue chip athletes like the factories. Seriously, you are using a soccer match to prove your point? Talk about reaching. JeT wanted to play qb above all else. outlier. Shamire wanted the GT diploma above all else. outlier. What else ya got? I didn't say there were zero blue chip athletes interested in GT over the factories, just very, very few and for very specific reasons that are not the norm for blue chips. Parker is a good example of a blue chip athlete that came to Tech but he has a different priority set than 90% of blue chip athletes. Also, he had a brother on the team before he got here. Let's see how many times we can duplicate that scenario. We must continue to mine the diamonds from the rough better than the rest of the field. Gotsis was pure luck but he's an example of an NFL talent that escaped the factories. He's not a diamond in the rough, he's a needle in a haystack. How many needles can we continue to find and put together enough of them on one team at the same time? Hmmm.... [/QUOTE]
