[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 508931, member: 2175"] I think Georgia Tech will come to regret this hire very much. This is the best candidate that Tech could draw? The storied Georgia Tech? Of Heisman and Alexander and Dodd? Only two years as a head coach in a sub-tier conference? 11 jobs in 22 years? A lunging, slow offense that is about to be eaten alive at ACC speed? We fallen for the ouster of the spread option, a thin skinned coach, who won, for a seven-yard deep shotgun spread because, well, you know, everybody is doing that now. (And remember: it was Collins's defense that GT shredded in the Orange Bowl. I mean as in confetti shredded, and getting out of town before the bowl game was the best career decision he made.) I initially thought 6-8 wins is reasonable. I now think 4-6 in the ball park. Topped off by all indications from Philadelphia -- yeah, everybody hates you in Philadelphia -- that Collins was a cipher and really made no effort to be anything else. This was Stansbury's first major hire? He will have buyer's remorse sooner than later. Sorry, but a real disappointment to realize this was the best Georgia Tech could attract. (Nah, Whisenhunt was never more than a straw horse, a guy thrown in to lend some substance to the "hunt".) I hope I am wrong and I will be rooting every Saturday regardless. [/QUOTE]
