[QUOTE="Boaty1, post: 498218, member: 2631"] Number 1 I’m sorry about your loss. I can’t imagine the pain of going through something like that and you are right. Compared to life events such as that this is trivial. I see that you became a tech fan in 80. I think those terrible years in the early 80’s still shape your perspective of the program. I became s fan in 89. I was spoiled with a national championship in 90 when I was just 11 years old. Over the past 3 decades I have pulled for a program that has been able to consistently compete at a high level with a variety of coaches. Everyone of those coaches recruited at a level higher than Johnson. O’Leary strung together several top 25 classes before he left and Gailey was on the verge of going back to back top 35 classes before he was fired. Going back further than that and Ross was able to recruit well enough to win a national championship. Your inability to acknowledge that Johnson was not a good recruiter makes you seem irrational. I see you are from Alabama and maybe you think I’m trying to say GT should be like them. Just to be clear that’s not at all what I’m saying. What I am saying is Duke should not come to Atlanta with a quarter of their team from the state of Ga and manhandle us. We are losing recruits that we have offered to schools without the tradition we have and we used to win more of those. I quite simply don’t understand why you accentuate the negatives of our program instead of the positive. As to your question about me attending the Institute, I didn’t. I graduated from GCSU in 03 with a History degree. And honestly I have no clue what that has to do with anything. [/QUOTE]
