[QUOTE="iceeater1969, post: 489531, member: 1237"] It's hard to get athletes identified , recruited, and into ga tech. I think we all agree with that. The debate has focused on recruit in area only ( per Todd Spencer) or go to large cities with good schools and football. I think that debate misses the point of the importance of retention. For 40 years I ran a largepilelinec enineering company. Get new clients and staff is critical, but having an environment that keeps them is easy more important. Getting new work or new engineers is not possible if u are getting fired by clients or engineers are quitting. Word spreads fast. Gactech has moved to stop the academics causing us to loose athletes (83 % gsr!! - note NW & ND are near 100%) When we recruit a kid like Mills and he leaves due to off field issues it kills the recruiting for NON perfect family kids. The blame the kid engineers are not invited to the sales presentation or the recruiting trips. At least we have fixed the marijuana policy are he was booted. I hope we can FINISH STRONG = keep the attrition to a minimum, expand recruiting area , and get a couple of Calvin's ON DEFENSE. The o will take care of the rest [/QUOTE]
