[QUOTE="jacketup, post: 909069, member: 630"] Someone explain the position of some posters that this team is better since Collins is gone. With Collins, according to Sagarin rankings, Tech lost to No. 8 Clemson, No. 19 Ole Miss and No. 30 UCF. Without Collins, Tech beat No. 61 Pitt (their DB's have bad hands) and No. 53 Duke (which Tech beat last year with Collins), but lost to No. 84 UVA and was blown out by No. 33 FSU. Support your position with facts. And Jeff Sims was hurt much of last year too, so that doesn't help you. The old saying that coaches get too much credit when they win and too much blame when they lose is live and well in the Tech fan base. The reality is that we don't have talent. That nose dive started more than 4 years ago and has taken more than 3 years of recruiting to fix. The Covid year has yielded six potential years of eligibility for our competition, and they have talent in those 4-6 year players that we lack. This year's recruiting plus transfers out with the coaching change may be another set back, but had become necessary. I just don't know where we will get the $14/million a year to pay off this staff plus hire the quality of staff we need--and with NIL, $14/million a year isn't enough. It's hard to be optimistic given GTAA management for the last 20 years. Maybe J Batt is a magician, but I doubt it. [/QUOTE]
