[QUOTE="iceeater1969, post: 94440, member: 1237"] G you are right - a major downer for defense Won't stop negative recruiting but I think the issue is the scout team and redshirt quality . It is so thin that when asked to provide credible defense against both TO and the opponents expected offense we get little of each. If we could improve the depth there - at the walk on level the scout team will make better during practice - example JHD and make the point of the negative recruiting irrelevant. ( dad bragging time- My son walked on at mcneese - 6'5" 245# kid where practiced against DE K Pittman who became high pick for Cowboys. after coaches saw my son making a very good player better son got partial, then full, then all-conference pick as senior (t310# ) - his proudest thing at that school was his first year as a walk on - mcneese won national championship and the coach gave him a ring. He was totally motivated after that. In the old days it was said that Nebraska's scout team was better than some college starting teams. They were a vital part of the team. What if TECH was famous for its scout team Got to recognize and reward what you want! Here are some ideas that cost almost nothing but would bring attention to kids and ga tech - like at baylor have redshirt freshman and scout team walk ons do spirit jump as we get ready to kick off - camera is on them at baylor games. - Honor outstanding walk ons in scout team to lead the wreck on field. - Monogram the name of the walk ons next to name of starting player (the coaches think they have helped) - let TV know this is a ga tech tradition - get the scout team walk ons to sit same spot - bam they're on TV! Give them the jersey. [/QUOTE]
