[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 379781, member: 265"] True, all too true. I'm at a loss to see why a team that went 9 - 4 last year is putting an inferior product on the field. As I've said before and many times too boot, I don't see the massive talent differences others do between Tech and most of our rivals; the only exception is Clemson and we've done ok against them, despite losing for the last three years. Otherwise, the only difference I can see is on the DL. When we don't have a Gotsis, we have trouble matching up. But we're trying to address that; look at the 2018 recruits. All we need to do is strike gold with one or two of those players (*cough* Jones, Dingle *cough*) to get closer to parity. In short, I would welcome extension of majors into other disciplines and, personally, I think that's coming. The easiest would be to put more emphasis on the social sciences, since they are becoming more and more computer and data analysis focused. (Indeed, a lot of the current developments in computer science were driven by social scientists.) But we're not doing so badly with the current mix, despite angst abounding here and at other fan sites. [/QUOTE]
