[QUOTE="vamosjackets, post: 640485, member: 216"] Why do you think Woody was in over his head? Because the defensive results weren't impressive in his first year? If you consistently used that logic, what inference would you draw about CGC based on his first year results? Woody's defensive stats his first year at App St weren't impressive either. But, from his second year forward, he was top 20 every year. That's why many of us were extremely sad to see CPJ go and see this coaching staff disassembled. We finally had a chance to have top 20 O and D (even with our budget!), which has SO rarely happened at GT. We had the offensive players in the pipeline to be top 10 again. There were elements of a perfect storm brewing. SM(sad)H. CGC's past results as a HC are 7-5 first year 8-4 second year (both of which are a digression from what that team had done under the previous head coach). Whereas another coach had taken a team who hadn't won more than 2 games in a season in 3 decades (that may be a slight exaggeration, I haven't looked it up) and took them to back-to-back 12-win seasons. I truly don't get it. I mean, if past success is the best indicator of future performance... But ... I only get riled up enough to react like this when people want to say dumb stuff like "Woody was in over his head" (with complete logical hypocrisy regarding CGC), or "GT needed a change" (with zero objective facts to back up that assertion), and "Graham probably transfers due to lack of PT" after a redshirt freshman season ... Seems much more likely to me that Graham would've become another Justin Thomas, not to mention Yates. Just let me pull for CGC and the team. Allow me to watch this thing like an entertaining movie with willful suspension of disbelief for a while. I could do that much more easily if people wouldn't get me to turn my brain back on with illogical criticism of CPJ with a sole motivation of not liking the previous regime for "style"-reasons.
