He might not have been allowed to talk with players or staff. When you leave, your employer often limits your options to talk with people inside the organizationI heard he left without addressing the players or staff

Neither is a good look.He might not have been allowed to talk with players or staff. When you leave, your employer often limits your options to talk with people inside the organization
Sounds like it's time for us to use Grigua's Prayer:
Oh, Lord, our situation is dire. Please come and help us, but don't send your Son; this is not a time for children.
Some employees are so destructive to your work culture you just want them gone before they can say or do anything else to plant discord and discontent. Not accusing CGC of that, just saying a don’t speak to anyone rule on your way out is not uncommon.Neither is a good look.
It's the same pattern it's always been. TStan was well aware of the need to raise money but opted to go after the mega-donor crowd ... smaller and easier to manage. While I agree with that from a purely 80/20 point of view, Tech needs a massive waive of organized fund-raising. Whether it's IPTAY, car washes, etc ... Tech needs to raise money consistently and has never really had much infrastructure to do it. Or the desire.I hope not. From the outside looking in, it's a concerning pattern lately.
IDK, how hard will it really be to teach kids not to jump early on offense in the red zone or to find a kicker? How hard to scrap the Punt team scheme and start over with the same guys? How hard to find a coach that has competent clock management skills and knows to use the last 30 seconds of the first half to get into field goal range rather than let time run out?No one knows but I would venture to guess that the damage done to the football program will take his successors five years or more to fix. This has a Tennessee/Nebraska lost decade feel to it. That said, a really great hire with sharp assistants might be able to mitigate the damage and the time frame pretty substantially but those people will not want to come and fix this mess. IIWII
LOL stop lying, if you felt bad you wouldn't have posted this.I feel horrible for saying this, but I have absolutely zero sympathy for Geoff Collins, and I hope he sees no benefit from the generational wealth we have gifted him with absolutely zero return.
Yep. I think there is a strong independent streak in Tech fans that makes it hard to get everyone on the rah-rah wagon at the same time but it’s high time to try.It's the same pattern it's always been.

another lie....I heard he left without addressing the players or staff
So he didn’t hug them and tell them bye?
So what's the likelihood that Todd is out ? Crazy to think that Collins could have ended Todd's career at tech.
It's a bit like looking for white smoke from the chimney atop the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican to sort out Tech politics.So what's the likelihood that Todd is out ? Crazy to think that Collins could have ended Todd's career at tech.
I just find hard to feel sorry for someone making 3.3 million a year to win 3 games out of 12.
One thing that's starting to concern me: Is GT starting to have a mega donor meddling problem? See Auburn.
Four easy steps to getting me to give more:Yep. I think there is a strong independent streak in Tech fans that makes it hard to get everyone on the rah-rah wagon at the same time but it’s high time to try.
Short answer: Yes.
Longer answer: This is the problem with $200 million dollars debt and the fact that 14% of our revenue generated goes to paying down that debt. Since we require major donor intervention to hire/fire coaches it gives them outsized say into the direction of the program.
