[QUOTE="redmule, post: 391581, member: 1338"] I have always been amazed at Tech's inability to build recruiting off stellar seasons with 1990 being the best example. I have been equally amazed with the ability to build stellar recruiting off terrible seasons, 1990 being the best example also. We sucked in the mid 90's and then put together a team to beat uga three years in a row. There seems to be some sort of underlying pattern or harmonic that doesn't change thru coaches or players. The worst part of it is that when uga is down, we tend to be down also. We have lost to some pitiful uga teams in the last 40 years because we were on the down slope (Ray Goof had a winning record against us dammit). Perhaps that means the real cause is something to do with high school athletics in the state of Georgia having down periods. More likely it just means that if we get those two or three athletes in a class that turn out to be special (how the hell could you have predicted George Godsey?), we have a knack for building a supporting team. As I said many times on this board, a Tech fan has to learn to love the roller coaster. At the start of the each season, you have to think, this might be the one. And if you don't buy tickets each year, you will miss out when it is the one. [/QUOTE]
