[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 474218, member: 1776"] To follow up on my comments from yesterday, I sort of look at it this way. When Johnson took over GT had won no fewer than 7 games for 11 straight years and hadn't finished below .500 in the ACC in 14 years. Gailey's last 4 seasons he was 20-12 against the ACC and was coming off his best recruiting class (which Johnson being a very good coach took advantage of like he should have). He also lost 5 games each season and had never beaten UGA. I was ready for a change. If Johnson has a losing record this season that would mean fewer than 6 wins in 3 of the last 4 yrs and losing ACC seasons in 2 of the last 4 with no ACC seasons better than .500 in the last 4. Recruiting doesn't really seem to be getting better either. As I mentioned above Johnson is 10-18 his last 3 1/2 years against the ACC. I think when he was hired Johnson's system gave us advantages. I think that over a decade and with changes to the NCAA rulebook that is no longer the case and that the combination of the NCAA rule changes and negative recruiting about the TO, that it is now a net negative for the program. it's hard to look at those numbers objectively and say the program is in a better spot. IMO whoever replaces Johnson has a more difficult task than what Johnson inherited. He came into a program that was at least solid and was tasked with making it better. A new coach would be tasked with rebuilding a program to solid and then making it better. [/QUOTE]
