HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

I know about the Zelnak family but besides that I don’t know much about our boosters. Does anyone have a list of some prominent ones and what they are known for?

Mark Teixeira is a big booster, if I’m not mistaken.

IIRC isn’t he on the board of trustees too?

GTAA has a site that lists donors and their level of contributions.

USF choosing between Chadwell and Deion. Cincinnati looking at Deion, Hartline, and Tom Herman. Meanwhile we are looking at Fritz and Key. Smh.

The rumored contract for Deion in that tweet is almost what we paid Collins, Thacker, and Long. Unless someone ponied up, we aren't exactly paying what it takes for top of the market talent.

Call me an optimist, but I am starting to feel like there is an unknown candidate in the mix.

Call me a pessimist, but I think that unknown candidate is probably not a splash hire.

Service academies actually play by slightly different rules. One is that there isn’t a class size limit. Another is that they’re visiting more high schools than just about everyone. If someone was in your school to talk about West Point, they were also looking for football and baseball players and other athletes

Recruiting is in full swing.Those who aren't used to following the process at the service academies might get confused.

They also have the best greyshirt program in the nation. If you are borderline academically, you can get a free year at the prep school where you will also play on the prep squad and practice and develop, and if you pass academically, you are automatically enrolled in the next class year.

Wait ... so I can't comment until something real happens?

Has that ever stopped you before?

Folks claiming the AD "dropped the ball" need to observe the money being tossed around for top candidates. Then they need to recognize GT doesn't swim in those waters and, for the most part, it's because we don't collectively give enough.

This was a point I made about why spending 3 mil to fire Collins early wasn't worth it because we could have spent that money on maybe luring a better coach. Of course now I'll be told we couldn't wait until January to make a change from someone who thinks that the language in Collins contract wasn't completely normal.

No Calvin, no Bosh, no nomar, no vairtek, no joe rogers, no mike duke (old wal mart ceo). No wonder we're broke.

 

[Techwood Relict]

WFri (how do we abbreviate Fritz?)

How about CWTF? The T, of course, is for Tulane. Just testing the waters.

Lots of anonymous donors.

Smart and pretty. No wonder you get away with so much.

 

[Heisman's Ghost]

I'll go with the uncertainty of it all. And probably Key not getting the job, right away, but he still might....

Ah hell, think I'll throw my hat in the Swarm transfer portal. I'm as uncertain as McCollum is.

"...think I'll throw my hat in the Swarm transfer portal." Boy, you keep that up and you will end up at The Hive with no scholarship.

 

[stech81]

I really hope we don't make a big mistake by not hiring Key. I just get a bad feeling.

I just want a better NIL deal. This two beer limit is short what the other guys are getting.
