[QUOTE="EE95_curse EMAG!, post: 913350, member: 4295"] Not sure if this is directed at my earlier comments or not. I see a power 5 conference job, in a huge metro area, in a big time football state as a good job. I feel that we've gotten use to settling for 30 or 40 years (for the most part) and too many think "respectable" football is our ceiling. It's not. A national championship is our ceiling. Is it more difficult a climb here, as opposed to Miami, Auburn, Nebraska and other schools that had fallen on hard times? sure. I see way too many on this site claiming "no good coach would be interested" and "can't recruit well due to academics" and alluding to most recent good seasons of 7-9 wins all we could possible demand. It's almost as if we accept losing, as long as we don't get blown out. I have asked this before in many of my posts, but will ask again. What is holding the GT football program back from national prominence, other than our own fans apathy? I say nothing. No reason we can't be a top 25 team and a top 25 recruiting program with a run at the CFP every 4 or 5 years...at the VERY least. Just because we have not been doing that, doesn't mean our glass ceiling is second tier in ACC and outside of top 25 nationally. That's just a limit put up by many a fan on here. Too many excuses and not enough desire. I am sick of playing it safe and making excuses. Prior to Bobby Dodd leaving, that attitude would have been comical. Slowly, over the decades since, we've allowed ourselves to get trained/brainwashed into believing we don't belong on the same field as UGA. Given our fight song says otherwise, that's pretty sad.
