[QUOTE="Wrecker, post: 23200, member: 1050"] Greetings SWARM. I am a TECH alum and huge supporter of the athletic programs. I am a realist and understand the challenges our coaches and players face trying to compete. I share the overall frustration of the mediocrity the football team has settled into, but certainly look for better times ahead. Good to see some familiar names from the Bbuzz off/ Can Chan days - stylee, Cheese, Mack, PatrickinGa. This board and the moderators seems to be more positive and focused on Tech doing well as opposed to agenda accomplishment. I have completely enjoyed reading so far. Some thoughts: CPJ is a good coach, not without faults (as is everybody) and has not forgotten how to win. Seems to me he has faced 3 big problems over the past 4 downer years. First, defense was fair to awful under Wommack and Groh. Think that problem is headed in the right direction with Roof who is a good, aggressive coordinator, makes good in-game adjustments and will be an outstanding recruiter. Second - QB has been a mess since that night in Blacksburg. TW improved, lost close games, was not a game changer, etc - but was supposed to be the bridge to VL. After 3 years in system, VL was not a fit. I think CPJ tried to make it work for him but it wasn't going to happen. The separation will be good for both. QB position can be fixed. Did you watch the Navy bowl game? They dominated essentially the same team that handed us one of the most embarrassing losses I can remember last year. Navy talent does not surpass ours except at the QB position and the obvious buy in all players have to the system. The system can work and can overcome big time defenses i.e. Ga Southern beating FL - Coach Boom (although truly troubled program). Hopefully, an athlete better suited to position can make the running and passing games better and better talent will help. Third - recruiting. VL's leaving will be used against us along with all the rest of the anti TO lines. Hopefully the staff can hold current class together and time will tell if the increased recruiting resources will pay off. One other thought I have not seen discussed which I firmly believe has contributed to our current state is the loss of some good asst coaches. Moncken, Bohannon both head coaches now. Kelley coaching backers for #1 team. May be others I am missing but certainly has been a lot of coaching turnover in this regime. Looking forward to next year because it will be good or regime will be gone. [/QUOTE]
