Stansbury and Collins Dismissed

[Vespidae]

News takes time to come out, what I said came out this afternoon.

Everyone loved Butch Jones. Once gone, the players all came forward and described him as a real POS.

“When Nikita Khrushchev was forced out as leader of the Soviet Union, he sat down and wrote two letters to his successor Leonid Brezhnev. He said, “When you get yourself into a situation you can’t get out of, open the first letter, and you’ll be safe. When you get yourself into another situation you can’t get out of, open the second letter”. Brezhnev soon found himself in a difficult situation, so he opened the first letter. It said, “Blame everything on me”. So he blamed Khrushchev for everything, and it worked. Eventually, he got himself into a second difficult situation he couldn’t get out of, so he opened the second letter. It said, “Sit down, and write two letters”.

Brent Key will be the interim HC.

hell he can't coach the OL

 

[Creative]

My question is if you were failing at your job why would you be holding anyone back

Correct. It makes zero sense.

 

[TooTall]

Any players putting stuff out on social media yet?

 

[Vespidae]

Correct. It makes zero sense.

Ego.

That would be in poor taste. As much as I despise our AD and HC, that would not be right.

Key is a terrible choice. We go 0 and 8 for the remainder of 2022 if that happens. He has not done crap since being here.

Team will be a lot better with Key at the Helm. Chip long has been held back by Collins and key has had disagreements with Collins doing that. Also, Collins has overrode some of the decisions by the recruiting staff and Kenyatta Watson. Expect recruiting to pick up with the recruiting staff being able to actually do their job and not having the head coach over ride their decisions and make them do what Collins wants and not what the recruiting staff wanted to do.

I hope all of this is true, but it sounds too good to be true. “We got rid of the only problem. Now we’ll be better” vibes.

I have a few questions about the meeting.
I don’t know how the NORMAL GTAA meetings operate, and since this is a special meeting how will it go down? Does TStan run things when these meetings happen or is it run by Cabera?

I’d love to be in the room because I have the feeling there’ll be very passionate opinions, a lot of yelling, and people defending their jobs.

Any chance this wakes up the hill, and provides more financial support to get us to the middle of the pack in the acc? CPJ was always asking for more help and never got extra money for staff. was the hill ok with 6-7 win average season with the occasional 9 or better season and they thought that we were where we needed to be and there is no need to provide extra money?PLEASE DONT MAKE THIS ANOTHER CPJ VS CGC ARGUMENT

The school already provides as much money to athletics as they are allowed to by state regulation. The BoT maybe could to do things to help raise more athletic money, but the students, school, foundation, etc cannot provide more funding.

I think it is time for 10 year contract extensions!

There's a KEY to GT football doing better but in my opinion part of it is throwing away the KEY. What part of anything he's done with our OL suggests he's good at coaching anything? Is it the sacks, the lack of run blocking, punt blocking that's got anyone excited about that guy? Or are we enamored with how well he crapped on us when he was at other schools?

 

[TromboneJacket]

I really hope the rumors about Key either are false or that he’s the choice because he’s the only one who wants the job. I’d much rather have Chaney try to right the ship. He has the best resume for head coach out of all the people on our staff.

 

[Js-showman]

I may be in the minority but I think TStan should stay. He made a bad decision with Collins. But otherwise has been good for the school, fundraising, etc.

Career ending bad decision IMO. Akin to steering your car toward a ditch and then hitting the accelerator.

 

[Jetdrive3]

I honestly believe that the search started already. Now it begins formally.

Maybe with Collins gone, Key will get rid of all the ATL nonsense, maintain a normal depth chart, and run practices in a more conventional format—so that the #1s finally get enough reps in practice to look effective in games.

My assumption was since Key is AHC the HC gif was his in the event of Collins being gone. It’s at least logical.

I think the marketing was awesome.

If Football likely to split off from non revenue sports - keep tstan w NR sports and fund raising.
Get a football ad that works closely w hc , keeps finger on progress, sells football to state legislators so we can get better curriculum, makes sure we have best technology, etc.. Be ready for new NCAA.

Most of all need to turn alumni into gt football sales men and women.

Cabrera is the chair. The chair runs the meetings. TStan is a non-voting member, which is committee-ese for “presents information to the committee and can watch the proceedings”. The voting members of the committee set the agenda, but it’s generally what the chairperson wants.
