We're looking better on the recruiting front. It sucks that Mack Brown is back at UNC, they're about to recruit like juggernauts like they did under Butch.

GEORGIA TECH
It’s been a while since a coaching change has so drastically revamped a school’s perception. On Friday, Georgia Tech commit Jalen Huff said it’s “like a whole new school,” while fellow verbal pledge Ryan King used the words “drip” and “swag” to describe the new feel on campus.
Tech is recruiting at a higher level these days and it was apparent that the reputation of the school has already shifted in and around Atlanta. If things go well on the field under new head coach Geoff Collins this fall, momentum will continue to build for Tech, which seems to finally be using its enviable geographic location to its advantage.

Geoff Collins making waves at Georgia Tech. Predicting the future is a losing proposition, so there’s no telling what the Collins Era at Georgia Tech will hold. The new head coach could build a juggernaut in Atlanta and start to compete for ACC titles. He could also fall flat on his face and be looking for work three years from now. I’m not going to pretend top know how things will go. What’s obvious, however, is that the perception of Georgia Tech as a program is drastically different than it was at this time last year.
There was buzz surrounding the program on Friday in Atlanta, as prospects agreed that the new Georgia Tech has embraced the culture of the city that houses it and has already become more alluring and “cool” college option. As of now, Tech has seven commitments, including a Rivals100 prospect in Florida-based cornerback Miles Brooks for the 2020 class. The buzz isn't slowing, however, and things could snowball quickly if Collins has an impressive debut season.

Georgia Tech has a new identity on the recruiting trail in the state of Georgia.Obviously, it is all over social media, but it is between the lines too. Since Collins took over as the head coach, Georgia Tech is different. The culture is different. The energy is back. Kids want to visit. Top in-state athletes are spending time on the Atlanta campus. Georgia prospects with major Power Five offers are committing to the Yellow Jackets.
Wide receiver Ryan King had the Georgia Tech adidas gloves on. Jalen Huff, another Yellow Jacket commit that was competing Friday night was talking up the school he is committed to. Not often in recent years did you hear a lot about Georgia Tech, but the buzz (no pun intended) is back. A long list of prospects there competing are serious considering Georgia Tech, including linebackers Phillip Webb and Choe Bryant-Strothers, defensive end JaQuari Wiggles, linebacker Tyson Meiguez, wide receivers Joshua Downs (North Carolinacommit) and Javon Baker (Alabama commit) and offensive linemen Tate Johnson and Javion Cohen. This recruiting class will be much different than the ones Georgia Tech fans were used to under Paul Johnson.
Dude I really want one of these ATL shirts

Does does the ATL mean "above the line" or Atlanta? I guess it means both, but I kinda like the first, the second is kinda generic and not specific to GT. Most folks around the country are going to read it as Atlanta.View attachment 5649
Those Students are not worthy!!!
I endured Russell my entire time. I deserve this T-shirt.
Yes we know it’s blue. Every other shirt that has been given out was gold or white @Gold1

It can mean either. That's why it's great marketing.Does does the ATL mean "above the line" or Atlanta? I guess it means both, but I kinda like the first, the second is kinda generic and not specific to GT. Most folks around the country are going to read it as Atlanta.

No, it's great marketing because people that know the "Above the Line" quote and people that just like the ATL moniker will both be interested in this shirt, all while supporting GT.It's only great marketing if people know what it stands for.
