[QUOTE="kg01, post: 448046, member: 11"] What year was it when Kim King said this? I mean no disrespect to King but it doesn't take much "insight" to suggest any program "[I]could[/I]" be a top 25 program. And furthermore, I could argue that GT is a top 25 program right now. The issue is there's a significant leap from being that to being a top 10 program. The point I've made is that, in order to get to top 10, we'd have to sell our academic souls. Also, at what point did I or anyone indicate mediocrity was acceptable? Acknowledgment does not equate to acceptance. And fan "mood" or however you want to term it, has no influence on what kind of program we are or can become. You think if we stop following or donating they'll "get the message" and hire Saban or something? And pray tell, what TF would Saban do with the 5-7% of his roster that could get in (and stay) here? Exactly. "Join the Ivy league" isn't an option, nor is it the best option. If GT wants to become a top 10 program, there are things that need to happen at levels far above the athletic department and likely our President. Until that happens, as I said, we are swimming tied to an anvil. [/QUOTE]
