Agree minus todayEverybody wants to dump on Roof and the D. They are not the big problem. Our offense this year is BAD. Go look how many second half points we have scored, especially in our losses. Look at the absolutely horrible field position they keep dumping on our D. Roof and the D aren't amazing but they are much improved. This year it's the O and Special Teams that are failing the team.

Personally, I must admit I find today's gam inexcusable. I suspect that is the frustration you see from some fans in this thread, and I think it is perfectly understandable.
Duke came into this game
Frankly, telling me not to worry, that we are the #40 team in the country is very unconvincing right now...because whatever Duke is, we are worse than them (see:scoreboard)...and we are worse than Virginia (they are going bowling plus see: scoreboard).
- having averaged 12.1 points per game in their last 6 games...we yielded 43
- having lost 6 in a row....they beat us
- having a season high of 41 points against a Power 5 team...see #1
- halftime adjustments seemed non existent for GT...Duke won the 2nd half 23-0!!
That was a performance worthy of firing....someone! Just mho. If that makes me a troll, so be it. I cannot accept GT being a worse program than Duke and Virginia in football. And right now, I think we demonstrably are worse than both. Not by much, but it's real.
I am surprised that our spending on football alone is below the likes of Duke and Virginia. Not sure I believe it, tbh. Overall AA, perhaps. But they put a lot more money into other sports than GT does.Also go look at the ACC in the 90s. We have been left behind schools spending way more money than us. 13th in the ACC and you guys think we can sprinkle magic fairy dust and get 5 stars and have 10 win seasons. I hate to be this rude but some of you guys really are stupid. There is no other way to put it
Calling for a coach to be fired shouldn't get you banned ! People did it to Gailey all the time ! This site is in love with pj for some reason thoughlosing to DUKE is uneffingacceptable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially as many times as we have under your watch!
Yup, and I'll wager right now I spend a ton more on GTAA than you do.Do you have season tickets?
It is time for a coaching change . I think CPJ is ready to go he has been a great coach but time catches up with us all .Just not a good coached team this year . Bad all around

He may not but I do? What's your point?Do you have season tickets?

While I completely agree that GT has serious systemic problems, including money, academic restrictions, curriculum limitations, etc....I simply don't believe that we should be satisfied or proud of being worse than Duke and Virginia in football. We're not arguing in this thread about competing with Clemson and UGa...we're arguing about giving up 40 to Virginia and 43 to Duke and having a losing season.
