[QUOTE="Supersizethatorder-mutt, post: 76497, member: 435"] If Johnson had a bad locker room presence, or bad practice presence, then there would be player rebellion, or at least evidence that he doesn't have the respect of the team. Now, obviously, players currently on any given team are not going to trash their coach, but have you ever heard any of Johnson's former players say anything negative about him? Hell, there are former Johnson players on the sidelines for every game supporting not just the team, but Johnson as well. And even former Tech players who didn't play under him are there and have good things to say about him. I was particularly struck by the fact that, after taking the ice-bucket challenge himself, he challenged former Ga Southern QB and now Ga Southern AD Tracy Ham. Johnson likes his players, and his players like him. BTW, I vote NO. I haven't lost confidence in him. He frustrates the hell out of me at times with his play-calling (like I should know better....LOL), and sometimes even pisses me off with that (Music Bowl in particular), but I love his offense, and I love the way he emphasizes the STUDENT part of student athlete. We certainly don't need to get rid of him yet. It's that ever-rotating carousel of coaches at Tech that led to the mess we are in now anyway. Why repeat what has failed so many times already. It's not like he's giving us nothing but losing seasons. He has never had a season anywhere near as bad as most of Curry's, and a couple of even Ross's and O'Leary's. Look at Beamer at VT. His first 6 seasons there, he won 2, 3, 6, 7, 5, and 2 wins (in order). If some of these so-called fans at Ga Tech had been in Blacksburg, Beamer probably wouldn't have lasted past the 3rd year, and certainly not the 6th. And look what they would have missed by letting him go. [/QUOTE]
