[QUOTE="Essobee, post: 27273, member: 715"] Yeah, there is little question that the interviewers had one single agenda and that was to trash CPJ as much as Vad would let them. IMHO, young Vad did a good job of deflecting most of their crap, which speaks well of his maturity level. On the matter of passing vs. running, I believe CPJ is of the majority school that you cannot win consistently without first establishing the running game. It is easy for naysayers to misconstrue that belief in order to trash the 3-0, especially to a pass-happy generation. I believe CPJ when he says that if passing 30 times a game would establish consistent winning strategy at GT, he would do it. But obviously CPJ doesn't believe that and neither do I. IMHO, you still need to establish the run first in order to set up the pass. On the matter of having a Dwyer, a Nesbitt, and a Thomas, YES...we have already seen what that does for this offense. As Vad said, it can really get "crazy". Year in and year out, we have seen satisfactory overall point production. Yet we trash ourselves by bemoaning our blocking schemes, no tight end, and the "meh" appeal of the 3-0 to superstar players that envision themselves knocking down many million$ in the pros after a brief but obligatory three years enjoying college ball, parties, co-eds, and fan adoration. All I have to do is think back a couple of years when we beat a much heralded Clemson team simply through spit, fire, and an offense they simply could not stop even though there was no Dwyer, Nesbitt, or Thomas providing Tech with a superior skill set. I also think about the years when we produced next to nothing on defense, yet still had enough point production to win. And I think about how proud I am of our student athletes that not only get into Georgia Tech, but they also get out with a solid education and skill set. So if I had any rank amateur advice for our accomplished head coach, it would only be to get a few more great players and go kick some more butt. However, CPJ most likely already knows that. And he certainly wouldn't be the first Tech coach to wish he could consistently get just a few of the great players that UGA has gotten each year since the beginning of time, but without all the arrests and trouble.
