[QUOTE="CEB, post: 860779, member: 4905"] For what it's worth, this is all rampant speculation on my part.... When CGC was brought in, he was brought in to usher in a completely new era of GT football. As part of that, there was, by design, emphasis on “out with the old.” In my opinion, there was too much emphasis on the “out with the old” part. It came off as “the scheme is bad, the talent / personnel is lacking and this is going to be a Herculean effort to rebuild a respectable program.” Some fans were fired up, but for some fans it came off way wrong. As off-putting as that was to some fans, imagine what the locker room felt like. The guys working their butts off for the last coach we’re more invested than any of us and its not a stretch to think that a lot of kids took away a message of “this whole thing is broken and I don’t think you guys are good enough to fix it.” I don’t know if there is dissension in the ranks or a toxic locker room or what. All accounts are CGC is a good guy most players like. But it’s obvious coaching transitions are always hard on the existing players and the messaging here was overplayed enough to make it seem pretty reasonable for some guys to become disgruntled and disinterested. Hopefully thats not the case and even if it were, winning will fix it. If the wins don’t come, we may be in for another round of disenfranchised guys... [/QUOTE]
