[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 378236, member: 265"] Let's do this one by one. • Change in offensive scheme: Not necessary and not in TS's control anyhow. • Bigger football budget: He's trying on this and I think he'll get it, if the rest of us cooperate. • More staff: Ditto. • More majors: Not within his jurisdiction, but likely, imho. Tech has done a lot in this area recently and will have to do more to keep up with rival tech schools. Example = MIT has a world class political science program. I wouldn't be surprised to see offerings in this and the other social sciences increase. Humanities? Well … not so much. • Less rigorous course loads: Yeah. Right. • Bigger stadium and fan base: Not likely. We aren't filling up Grant Field as it is. Also, there was a recent post here that pointed out that the crowds at Tech games were about average for college football. • More social media: We could and probably will do this, but I doubt it'll have much effect. • Good press from the AJC: Not impossible. We win more and we'll get better coverage. See 2014. • More helpful administration: Probable, imho. The folks at the Hill know how much donations to Tech track sports results. They need the money. But they don't need TS to tell them that. The regents won't cooperate; they have an entire system to run. But we don't need them to get this done. • "… a proven history of sending players to the NFL": Huh? We are ok on this already. Besides, this isn't the main thing that sells Tech to players we're recruiting. [/QUOTE]
