[QUOTE="Pointer, post: 845276, member: 4719"] That is indeed how it was setup. And hopefully it can still work out that way and turn this thing around. I just think many who guessed 3-4 wins at the beginning of the season did so because of the perceived top 5(or whatever) SOS. Seeing as how the schedule was actually infinitely more manageable, it kind of makes that point moot. Still, weather some of us like it or not, they will get another season. I still maintain that CGC knows a ton about defense and I really find it hard to believe that he would field such a terrible unit. I think the lack of resources here have forced the staff to focus more on recruiting and less on actual coaching, in order to setup their current successful class and the second year's. If we as Tech really want to go down the recruiting and talent route, the only way it will work for CGC is if more recruiting resources are put in place (even more so then the upgrade he got when he was hired, cause the last regime did not enjoy the same resources). I would prioritize that over firing coordinators. If we want to go about this smartly and stay the course, I truly believe this is the route. That being said, my personal preference (until CGC proves he can be a good HC) is to get Monken in here, let him run whatever offense and defense he wants, but maintain the recruiting resources/add to them. I think people would be pleasantly surprised at the talent we can lure in here. Couple the fact that Monken is also not married to the 3O and has allegedly claimed willingness to change offenses if necessary. Look at the 09 and 10 classes when PJ had proper funding. They were decent classes and paid off in the 2014 team (also had a 4* DT commit JC Lanier who covered to OL, but nonetheless, a 4* DT commit). All that to say, don't fire coordinators in the off season. Hire more PR/Marketing/Recruiting guys to free up the coaches to actually... You know... Coach. That way we don't have a drop off in recruiting as well. [/QUOTE]
