[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 610036, member: 2175"] a. I don't know he is "bound to fail." I know he did once. I know I question a Notre Dame third stringer knocking us dead at GT and what that says about GT football. b. In setting "effort" as his primary goal Collins joins, well, every football coach in America. c. don't know he has passed on anybody as those things by NCAA rules aren't discussed by coaches. Maybe you have inside knowledge to share. With the numbers he is taking I kinda doubt anybody got past him. d. If I might add a new element, seriously, when he is passing out scholarships willy-nilly to transfer students -- the grad students I have no problem with, such as Bryant taking his Clemson bachelor's degree to Missouri -- what happens to the Atlanta area players he vowed to recruit? I have been a Tech fan a long time, through great, bad and good coaches, and I still am. But none of them got there by talking, particularly when the subject -- effort, for instance, -- is a given, through sports, all divisions. ("Effort" ain't news as there is nothing "new" to it.) I never heard or read of a coach suggesting a player didn't try very hard but he would play anyway. So let's discard "effort" as a unique additive to the coaching experience, "main metric" particularly because it can't be otherwise. (Who in the world would recruit any player who didn't try?) Now, if he said "competitors" was his main metric, that would get my attention. Competitors in any sport are rare and prized. [/QUOTE]
