[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 546456, member: 265"] Problem = this is largely out of his hands. Families that take education seriously are more likely to have sons who take education seriously, but even that is not assured. And I'd say it is a lead pipe cinch that not much a Tech football coach says will have much influence on the distribution of young men who fit the bill. That is why targeting is so important for a school like Tech; we have to find good athletes who a) value education, b) have the grades to show for it, c) want to major in something Tech teaches, and d) aren't susceptible to the blandishments of other institutions with more choices available. That, sports fans, is a real hard row to hoe. Maybe we can get better at it, given time and money. Maybe we can't. Right now, our long term experience is not greatly encouraging for more then a marginal change for the better. Many here think the new staff can make the difference. I hope they are right, but I'll believe it when I see it. [/QUOTE]
