[QUOTE="NtTomNtPhilGCollins, post: 514772, member: 4370"] Not necessarily true CFB players love to play "close to home" for the most part In every Era where Miami has had great teams they have never had high paid Coaching Staffs, Elite Facilities, nor have they ever been a "big money CFB Program" budget-wise What they have had is nearby talent, and lots of it GT is very similar to Miami in all those phases listed above, [B]except[/B] GT has only 3 Majors that allows us to throw a "wide net" recruiting wise (BS-Business, BS-LMC, BS-HST) We don't have to change funding, backing, or spending to elevate GT FB to nipping at the CFP on occasion [B]We simply have to recruit earlier and better and get a little lucky here and there[/B] For anecdotal purposes-----in this 2019 Recruiting Class there were 39 HS players in GA that were rated 4* & 5* according to 247 composite rankings, CPJ (yeah him) offered 26 of those Recruits to come to GT [B]If CPJ offered them he obviously thought they could get accepted and graduate from GT[/B] That 26 of 39 represents a .666 ratio, if you extrapolate that to the Top100 recruits in GA that means that 2/3 or 66 out of the Top100 HS FB players in Ga are indeed academic qualifiers for GT I have always theorized that the academics excuse was way overblown by the CPJ fanboyz, and now CPJ's own offer list supports my theories If 60 to 70 of the Top100 Recruits in GA are indeed academic qualifiers for GT, then Coach G has a good chance to really elevate this program [B]without any "structural changes" to GT as an Institution[/B], this also proves that CPJ's detractors were correct all along, he really was a terrible Recruiter and didn't get GT's fair share of the elite Recruits from GA HSs [B]that did qualify for GT[/B] My theory is that the "system is hurting our recruiting" people were probably correct all along I'm excited because Coach G isn't letting any excuse keep from recruiting at the highest level that we can here at GT [/QUOTE]
