[QUOTE="RhoChi, post: 815544, member: 5096"] Listen, I am just as happy and thankful for CBRs tenure at Tech. But was kinda not super impactful besides the one championship. Growing up I knew that Tech had won the 1990 natty and I knew Pat Swilling and Marco Coleman and all the others. I even knew O’Leary but I had never heard of Ross until I watched a documentary on the season. I just don’t think he was here long enough to warrant this. And I may catch flak for this opinion, but I’d put up a statue of CPJ before I put one up of Ross. As rough as it was under him at times, Tech had a great run and great results under him for the most part. We only missed a bowl game twice in his entire coaching time here. We also stayed nationally relevant for the most part even while running the triple option And while we didn’t win a national title, I feel like CPJ had much more of an impact than Ross. That being said, in truth I wouldn’t want a statue of either coach. Both did good things, but neither really did enough to warrant immortalization like that. Maybe a nice plaque or small mural.
