[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 679435, member: 4572"] I’m not advocating for anybody. I wouldn’t want Tom Crean to run the Georgia Tech basketball program. He comes along with just about as many negative connotations as Pastner does. But the guy won 20 games in the Big 10 four times. It’s very possible he’ll have a winning conference record this year and finish with 20 wins in the SEC. I’m not a fan of Pastner, but I [I]do [/I]think he’s the best option Tech has right now and at least next year. Alvarado being out and Usher ineligible definitely affected the outcome of some games this year. But NC St. and UNC were also missing key players in those wins. Losing by 30 to Ball State and Syracuse at home is unacceptable and inexcusable, though. Losing to at least one mid-major team at home in a “buy game” every year in unacceptable. Not averaging at least 1 (high school) 4 star recruit at an ACC school in a huge basketball market is unacceptable. I know with CJPs “get old stay old” strategy Tech will never be at the top of recruiting rankings. It’s literally not possible because of the one and done mentality at the blue bloods and how singing large classes skew rankings, kinda what Crean did at Georgia last year. Losing 5 in a row (4 under JP) to Georgia is unacceptable. Not making the tournament and only appearing in the NIT twice across a decade is unacceptable. Of course not all of that is Pastner’s fault. A lot of it is the fault of the GTAA and the Institute’s mentality itself. With all of that being said, I’m done talking about Tom Crean. I won’t say another word about him. I hope like hell Tech turns back into the basketball program it was and should be, and I hope it happens under Pastner. Logistics wise though, Georgia is going to take some of that ability now. They have the money to do so. Lotta basketball left on both sides. I’d love for someone to take my messages and shove them down my throat next year after Tech dominates Georgia up and down the floor at McCamish and wins 25 games while Georgia fails to win 10. Next year Tech will be “old.” We’ll see how it works out. G’day gentlemen. [/QUOTE]
