Mostly “Fire Geoff Collins”, some reminiscing, maybe bourbon or other distractions

I thought you were advocating drawing plays up in the dirt like we did in the backyard. Couldn’t be any worse, I suppose.

Did you notice we lost our last two games by a combined score of 100-0?

I don't think they did the stupid money down thing today unless I missed it. So there's that....

They didn't, but you have to hold the opposing team to a 3rd down to even do that. We only held them to 3rd down 5 times all game.

We are officially in wait and see mode with recruiting, coordinators, and goofy remarks about progress. Let us see.

Collins took a winning program and trashed it. For those that forget, under Johnson GT had the record for longest streak of bowl games.

That was under Gailey

 

[GTLorenzo]

That was under Gailey

It was started under O'Leary and extended through Johnson. Ended in 2015 in the year where we were down to like our 17th and 18th running backs and 4th string jock washer.....wait, Collins wasn't here yet.

 

[THWG16]

Well he had great success at Temple so sure

Great success ???

 

[GTLorenzo]

Great success ???

Yes, great success. Haven't you heard him say it over and over and over and over and over again??? Must be true if he keeps saying it.

I've watched a lot of things in my 50 years as a tech fan! It ain't the coaches!

They had one of the best front 7s in the country when they shut out our offense, remember. Or at least that’s what our HC told us

Mods, please nuke this thread. Seriously, some of these stupid threads are ridiculous and redundant.

I texted a classmate from high school that went to Cow Town U., "Hey, can't your guys do any better than that? Notre Dame beat us 55-0 and they didn't even score in the 4th quarter." I bet that made him really mad.

How to me you are a collins apologist without saying you are

LOL! Anyone not screaming for Collins to be fired is an apologist to you?

Anyone who makes a thread like this is.

 

[Lavoisier]

Chan was here for 6 years. Paul (who was not fired) was here for a decade. Ted had three one year gigs after getting fired and is currently an analyst at Clemson, nobody wants him as a DC anymore.

 

[forensicbuzz]

Anyone who makes a thread like this is.

So, if the OP would have said it's a lot bigger than "coaches" and that firing the coaches won't solve the problem, would you have responded the same? Not defending, not attacking, just asking.

 

[wrmathis]

From a "die hard Auburn fan". Couldn't care less what he has to say to be honest

So u don’t care what former players have to say? Especially one of the better DB/returners Tech has had in recent years?

Watch closer

Doomed to be in football purgatory for ever if we don't let coaches have time. Even the factories end up in purgatory sometimes like Tennessee when they let the tail wag thee dog.

There is a warning about personal attacks on coaches. Short of threating bodily injury, what could be a bigger personal attack than this one? This thread is detrimental to recruiting and the program. Is that the purpose of this board? The moderators should ban themselves for allowing it---and ban this thread.

AGREE!

Been saying that, but mods could care less.

This thread has been stupid for a very long time. Why it is allowed to continue I could not guess.

Maybe they agree with all of this, but try to look like bystanders.

They’ve been pretty consistent in allowing threads like this to exist. Look back at the previous regime. It’s fair to challenge the coaching staff if they are not performing. If a recruit chooses not to go to tech because of a thread. I’m not sure they’re cut for p5 football and the scrutiny that comes from that.
