Maryland's move to BIG10, would have been better off moving too?

[QUOTE="Techster, post: 923528, member: 360"] Those are only 3 teams, and it doesn't mean we play them all. Most of the teams in the B1G GT should be competitive with. This whole thing about not being able to compete in the B1G is such a poor copout. I'm not picking on you when I say that...plenty of our fans keep bringing it up. That's a total "little brother" mentality and why GT is held back. Do you think Key wants to compete at the highest level? That's why he called out UGA today...IMO, that's more a message to GT fans than UGA, because he wants GT fans to have the mentality that we need to think bigger, and compete at a higher level. In 2 years, the B1G payout will be $75 MILLION per team, and that will only increase with a projected payout of over $100 MILLLION in 5 years. Not only can GT pay down capital debts that have dragged down our potential, GT can also higher better coaches, staff up our recruiting personnel, hire better assistant coaches. That's a LOT of money and ability to operate on a net positive basis to give up just because some fans don't want to go to Minnesota or Ohio in November. How GT would do in the B1G (or SEC) depends on the decisions GTAA makes. If we continue to hire coaches like Collins in football and Brian Gregory in basketball, of course GT will struggle. I think CPJ in his prime, and George O'Leary in his prime...both staffed with high level assistants and a full support staff off the field and in the recruiting room could 100% have GT competing at a high level in the B1G (or any other conference). It's all moot anyhow because GT decided to be very shortsighted. So now we'll continue to struggle every year because our funding is severely limited. We are a product of our decisions...and our decisions have been extremely piss poor. [/QUOTE]

How many points did Georgia Tech score against Cumberland in 1916?
