[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 499665, member: 2175"] I saw that "report" -- and I am caution because BR is kind of sophomoric in its writing -- but if the desire is a connection, and NFL, then the job description is written with one man in mind. I don't believe that. Almost without exception, creativity and innovation in football begins in colleges, not the NFL, which is a copy cat, see no evil cut and paste operation, top to bottom. (In years to come somebody will realize that the transition to RPO and zone reads in the NFL actually began with Johnson's option successes in college, but that is another argument.) I'm sure Whisenhunt is a fine human being. He is not a Georgia Tech football coach if the desire at Georgia Tech is to improve on Johnson. (And that should be the desire in any replacement at any level: better than the last. It is evolution.) I don't know whether he is interviewing or not, but: Elliott at Clemson is a live candidate. Moreover, he would bring the Swinney model to GT, and one of those that nobody knows much about is the unbelievable use of former Clemson players to serve as volunteers or GAs or student coaches to Clemson. (If a guy is a student a lot of the barriers are lowered.) Which is to say if Elliott were hired I would see the first phone call going to Calvin Johnson. He has always said he wanted to finish his degree. So enroll for a course, be a student, then come down to the field and work with our receivers. Greet our recruiting prospects. Show the GT flag. Right now Clemson has a former punter working with kickers. But until then he was a volunteer assistant as a student, back to Clemson to get his degree. Spent 15 years in the major leagues as a shortstop and utility infielder. And JP Losman, former NFL QB, as an intern, enrolled as a student because Swinney was the only college coach willing to give him a chance to get into coaching. Calvin Johnson. What do you think that would do for recruiting? [/QUOTE]
