[QUOTE="Longestday, post: 61205, member: 402"] [USER=77]@dressedcheeseside[/USER] Leonard still gets Penny : ) I got mine: ) Most 16/17 year olds want to party with girls and have a good time. We need the 17 year olds that are more mature and value an education despite the negative attributes that education brings. I would like to see a poll each year on why players picked GT: [LIST] [*][B][U]***Relationship with the Coaches***[/U][/B] [*]Education [*]Best D1 offer combined with the rest of this list [*]Practice facilities [*]Close to home/far enough away from home [*]In Atlanta [*]Best chance at early playing time / starting at a D1 school [*]Best Athlete results after school outside of NFL? [/LIST] Although I agree it may have some unconscious effect, I don't think you have an athlete say, "I am not a nerd and therefore I am not going to GT". I want to take a risk here and say that many of our athletes come here for the education, the relationship they have built with the recruiting coach, and best D1 offer that has potential for early playing time. This has nothing to do with the mini 500. We are not a factory that is consistently in the hunt for championships, consistently in the top 25, with a larger girl to guy ratio on campus, talked about by the media non stop, a school that you have followed since you were in middle school. Many want to play for a championship team that sends most of their people to the NFL and does not require them to go to class. The biggest negative we have is we are 7 and 6 the last few years and they make you go to hard classes. This is not rocket science to a 16/17 year old. [/QUOTE]
