[QUOTE="GTJason, post: 905927, member: 94"] So I refuse to click on the link because you've told me all I need to know, they haven't looked at GT. Let me guess their projections. They'll have Duke and UNC at the top. Tier 2 will be some combination of UVA, FSU and Miami. Then they'll have the 3rd tier of Louisville, ND, NC State, VT, Wake, and Syracuse. Then the bottom is Us, Pitt, and Clemson. How did I do and keep in mind I'm not really a basketball fan, I'm a GT fan who will watch most NCAA tournaments? I think the issue the "Optimists" here have with your argument is the pundits don't know what they are talking about and also by your argument if whichever one is first Duke/UNC doesn't win the ACC they should fire their coach for not meeting the expectations of some guy who didn't really do any research. I will give you some ammunition and say perception weighs heavily into the minds of recruits. We could stand to be a whole lot cooler and I don't know how to make that happen. Doesn't one of our guys have a ton of followers on Insta? Maybe give him a budget to work with, who knows? For Pastner, he has had nothing less than a bumpy road - some of it his fault. I have never once thought he is over his head here and have never thought we're more than a season away from being able to make the NCAA tournament (usually doesn't work out, sure but I'm talking about potential.) Also let's not forget he made good on his word. Said it would take him 5 years to make the tournament and he f'n did it and won the ACC tournament no less. If not for a stupid covid diagnosis (and I'll give you - no one to backfill that spot which we barely have now) we could have gone deep into that tournament as well I don't think many of us were happy when he was hired, but he's proven himself to be a good coach, he's figuring out the recruiting, and he could definitely do something to make the team cooler. Hiring someone else will be a complete reset at this point and we will actually be at the bottom of the ACC while the new guy figures out how to coach at GT and even then there's no guarantee that will work out ( in all likelihood it won't.) We're a big question mark this year but the ceiling is definitely high. I would say we should finish in the top end of that 3rd tier group I mentioned above with some wins over tiers 1 and 2 we have no business getting and a loss to <insert bottom of the ACC team here> Finally he owes the 20-21 team a haircut [/QUOTE]
