[QUOTE="BCJacket, post: 383424, member: 2332"] I'm sure CPJ was honest with Ted about where he stood. The fact that no changes were made until after the signing period and that Ted took another job; tells me that the parting wasn't entirely acrimonious. Probably a mutual agreement it was time for a change. CTR has always been a job hopper. The 5 years at Tech was his longest stay anywhere in his career. I'm just speculating, but when he took the job at Tech there were two big factors. His kids were about to start high school. Moving back home to GA let them play high school ball here (Where I assume their extended family is?). Also, gave them a better chance to play at Dad's alma mater. Secondly, CPJ's seat was getting pretty warm after 3 mediocre seasons and the Groh disaster. CTR could well have been in position to get an interim-to-permanent audition as HC if history had gone differently. I have to think Tech HC was/is his dream job. Five years later, those factors have changed. CTR wouldn't have a shot at the HC job if CPJ were fired. TD is on the team*. The grass at Ma Tech probably wasn't as green as he remembered. *(I know there's a lot of speculation that he'll follow his Dad to NCSt. But having your Dad as a coach is one of those things that sounds better than it is. While I'm speculating wildly, I'll say maybe the stress of D1 football was straining their personal relationship and that was part of Ted's desire to move on.) [/QUOTE]
