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

Go get Bill OBryan

Bill Napier @ lousiana. He is a coach from Georgia. Great recruiter. Keep coach key and coach choice . That will b a great start. For the coaching staff.. let coach key finish this season as HC.

I really can't think of a worse loss in modern Tech history (or all of Tech history for that matter)... unless we lose to KSU next week.

I mean he already lost to a .500 citadel team. Winless MAC team might be worse but its close

The mutts are gonna stomp us into the ground this year. Where is the vastly improved OL and DL? Honestly, even if we got the call at the end, I'd still feel the same way. We're in deep doo doo.

First time posting here in quite some time... I was pumped about this season and the direction of the program but am totally deflated. Recruiting may have gotten better, but at least a loss to MTSU used to be an aberration. We always joke about the dwags doing less with more, but look at tonight. NIU's highest rated recruit ever is approx a .86 3-star. We have a great group of running backs, a defense of highly touted (high school rated) transfers, and a much larger coaching staff budget..

Tonight, we left at least 13 points on the board (similar to last year), Looked unprepared out of the gate (same as in many games last year), can only move the ball effectively by running (same as the last 14 years, sans the J.T. years at tech, and some Tevin games).

We had a 7 or 8 win team in CPJ's last year. I think we can all agree on this board that getting 48 to 55 ranked recuiting classes and having a winning record is better than selling our souls for the 27th ranked recruiting class.

I love this school. My time at tech is a big part of the person I am today. To see us as a bottom rung P-5 program losing to the likes of the Citadel and NIU is just sad... How different was this from the USF or Citadel game in the first year of Collins' tenure? We wrecked Bowling Green in CPJ's last year... All the meanwhile. Coach Johnson was doing with a smaller staff, smaller budget, and (most importantly) LESS HELMET STICKERS!!!!!

We are a joke....
Our used car salesman of a coach is a joke....
Our lights display is a joke.............
Our juice is artificial juicy juice from China........

Stansbury or Collins has to go....

To Hell With Georgia

Absolutely spot on post.

I think you are underestimating the conditioning and raw physicality of NIU. They are superb specimens of the human species and in ANY sport they might compete in, would be considered ELITE. We are fortunate to even be on the same field as them. <tongue in cheek>

NO! They might be winless, but if the ball had bounced a different way, they'd be in the College Playoff. They are a a GREAT team and we are really lucky we kept the game close. I'm just glad they didn't beat us any worse than they did.

That is not nice...clever and wicked perhaps, but not nice.

Collins rather be buddies with the players than their head coach

I've been saying that for 2 years. TS better call an emergency press conference to "express confidence" in CGC. That is usually the kiss of death.

Nothing like having a rival that will steamroll us by 50+ once again.

 

[Jacketman99]

KSU must be licking their chops

 

[Vespidae]

Yeah, he is high on my list of replacements, but I think Coastal goes undefeated and someone else snags him

No. At this point, we can only afford ... Butch Jones.

 

[tomknight]

Relax. You might be wound too tight. Not healthy.

Don't be a condescending *****.

 

[reckrider]

Play calling the next to the last offensive series was abysmal. How do you play it safe with over 3 minutes left?

 

[stech81]

We suck.

And again for the 3rd year. Lets stop and think who has been here that long.

 

[TheTechGuy]

Anyone else catch the announcers mocking CGC? One mocked him for calling timeout and going for it on 4th after the crowd booed. The other mocked him for calling our kicker one of the best kickers in America and noted that our guy missed 2 FGs tonight.

 

[Animal02]

GTAA got it wrong with this hire. We had better options.

Also got it wrong with the AD hire, IMO

Napier won't touch GT.

I wouldn't call Kennesaw State a rival...

Don't be a condescending *****.

Just following your lead ...

 

[Vanillalite]

Can Pastner take over football duties too?

 

[inGTwetrust]

Are you serious ???

Yes. Was it perfect? No. No one is. But he called a good game. Had a minimum of 3 TDS set up perrfect if we could hit an open receiver. That 4th down to start? Great play bad pass. 3rd down to start the 2nd half? Right in the bread basket. That wasn’t a Pnut problem. That was a Collins and execution issue.
