Not really. It's the same half dozen guys that dominate every thread with negativity especially after a loss. What's the point?
Mostly “Fire Geoff Collins”, some reminiscing, maybe bourbon or other distractions

Key is on a 2 year deal, so that will cost 650k. I would roll with him another year and hope the OL is healthy and finally gels.
I don't like calling for anyone to lose a gig, but I would look hard at Thacker, Burton, Popovich, Wiesehan if changes have to happen.

Why not P? Thacker gave up some yards today but defense is what kept us in the game, with some key turnovers. Frankly our defensive penalties were probably the most damaging thing today, sustaining drives early.
P play calling was terrible today. First down was a wasted down today—so predictable. Why not try a screen pass down the stretch? Miami was sending numbers and the only way we were really moving the ball anyways was dumping off to our RBs and letting them create.

Patenaude should be under review, as well. Just neglected to mention him.
I like what Choice, Dixon, Knight and Coleman have done so far.

I actually don't think Key is a bad coach. He is incredibly overrated as a recruiter though, and we could use that salary to entice a better OC/DC. We should have let him go to USC this off-season. The price we pay for him, we need way more progress or way more 4* recruits from him.

I think it is really just one guy with 6 different handles that posts all the negative stuff. Maybe he is a UGAian bot.

I wanted to put 30,000 Plus, it might be my wishful thinking that it'll only be 20Kish, but I'm hoping that was overshooting the target.Are the other 22,000 of them not coming

It’s gonna be tough but IMO DC and OC got to change. Keeping most of the assistants is ok. I think it comes down to play calling and oversight of the process in order to flip the close games in our favor. It is not pure luck.
I get the feeling that the assistants are frustrated because they work hard to prepare the kids but the play calling and overall game plan has been short.

I wouldn't invest a single penny if CGC is still in the picture. He needs to win with what he's got or get out.
New coordinators will not help his cause, he's just not HC material.

Is Collins getting any heat from the Atlanta sports radio media? I haven't heard the guys on 680 the Fan or 92.9 The Game say anything bad about him. I do remember their disdain for Paul Johnson and were happy to see him go.

I listened to 680 after the post game. Not an ATeam crew but they did mention that things should be better than they are in year 3 and that we likely need some changes on the staff.

The similarities are uncanny:
Bryan VanGorder complied a very similar record, came with a defensive background, hung around a bunch of factory/NFL teams in that capacity, talked a bunch of crap about the 3O after inheriting GASouthern.
The only difference is that GASouthern was smart enough to nip that failed experiment in the bud. Why is Tech so dumb when it comes to the athletic department?!?!

I think we are largely off their radar at the moment. Braves, dwags, etc

To be fair, I think it's more timing and money. Paul retired early in TStan's tenure, money was tight(still is) and CGC was a good salesman.

As pissed as I am about the current situation and as much as I want to say, “fire everyone,” there’s some positives happening.
Last season, every loss was 10+ points. This season, every loss except Pitt is <10 points. We’re getting better and the games are getting closer.
I feel like an idiot claiming “good losses.” But it’s hard to argue that we’re moving in the right direction. Just not as fast as we hoped.
