None of those other 3 have the pedigree that BOB has.
Ongoing interviews, top targets emerging in Georgia Tech coaching search
Interim Brent Key, other sitting head coaches in mix at Tech
I'll just park this here...
Yeah, I agree BOB would be a solid option - a rather "meh" hire, but stability is a good thing. I just don't think that "meh" is what Tech is looking for right now and I just have a sense that it's likely going to be someone else...and the word around town is that it may be a done deal now.
If he gets the job, I'm sure his contract will come with a substantial buyout clause Tech could use to hire the next coach. If you hire good coaches, you get to cash in on buyout clauses instead of paying them.
My thought was purely regarding the appearance that outside influences seem to be having less influence in this decision, but I see the point you're making as well.
I think it’s mainly non-alums who can’t come to this realization. Maybe I’m wrong.
The thing is, I'm not sure others see the same as you. I'm not looking to prosecute the Dustin Vaitekunas incident at Tech or the Ereck Plancher incident at UCF, but my experience is a jury verdict isn't worth the paper it's written on. I think most attorneys will agree that a jury verdict and the truth have very little in common.
None of were there. Be careful what you base your judgement on. Not saying you're wrong, but it is a plaintiff's attorney's job to vilify people.The dude got a player killed at UCF
Report: UCF can go to hell, says Attorney for Player Killed After Football Drills — KnightNews.com
The attorney for Ereck Plancher had strong words for the University of Central Florida when he found out a statue of George O’Leary was being built on campus, according to CBS Sports. “[UCF] can go to hell,” said Steve Yarrid, according to CBS Sports. “They’re going to erect a statue for George...knightnews.com
I don’t really care what O’Leary has to say about anything. His judgement is obviously terrible.
UCF was held to be liable. Feel free to say it wasn’t on O’Leary, but the AA was held responsible for the player’s death and O’Leary was present.
Again, jury verdicts have little to do with the truth. That's a fact. Ask any trial attorney.

I'm hearing that the contract has been signed, but I don't know for sure if it's Key or BOB.Call me crazy. I don’t have anything to back this up besides reading between the lines. But I have a weird feeling our next head coach will be Bill O’Brien with Key staying on as AHC and OL coach.
1) Key posted today on his official Twitter account an official GT Football “Happy Thanksgiving” post. Obviously I’m reading way too deep into this, but I don’t see an interim head coach that may not be with the program in a week posting this. In fact, Key is not very active on Twitter generally.
2) Multiple Alabama sites are reporting that BOB will be taking the GT job.
3) If Key were to stay with the program (not as HC) and sources on this forum are correct, Chadwell would not be an option because he is reportedly wanting to bring his entire staff.
4) Finally, Russell Johnson, a reporter for the GT Rivals page, posted a cryptic tweet referencing Auburn’s interim head coach planning to stay on board through the coaching change. His caption with the article was “An interim Head Coach potentially sticking with a new incoming HC… interesting
Am I crazy? Am I a super sleuth? Or reading too much into small posts? Possibly all of the above. I just have a weird feeling. Go Jackets. THWG
