[QUOTE="stingem103, post: 462916, member: 169"] I briefly worked with (2) of our players (both played a lot on offense from 2009-2011) back during the summer before the 2011 season....they were working some shifts part time for my company and I had to know what they thought of PJ given their status as current players....I also think many of us GT fans at the time were pretty negative based on what happened in 2010 so I thought it fair to ask. After I asked what they though, they basically said they didn't like him but it was obvious they respected him as a football coach....one guy just seemed to be mad about not getting enough targets at GT as a WR. PJ is probably not a "players" coach in many ways but I dont think he is not well liked by his players....at least the ones that buy into the system/team. Factory schools by comparison hire a bunch of assistant coaches so the head coach can operate a little differently at those schools while still having motivation/discipline applied (Dabo is a good example of this..he looks like the nicest guy in the world partially due to it). Tech probably is better served by a coach like PJ...of course I think we all wish he was a little better at recruiting. One thing is for certain, this topic of him being liked by players comes up everytime we have some issues in a given season. [/QUOTE]
