[QUOTE="TheSilasSonRising, post: 429360, member: 926"] Not a possibility. Dodd/ Harrison spit in the faces of people who, although not alums, had bought GT tickets for decades by leaving the SEC. At the same time Dooley went on the road and beat Michigan. And he beat Bryant in his 2nd year at ugag. He made people in the state proud, whether we like it or not. And Dodd tied Vandy. Anyone understand what not winning a game against VANDY meant back then? And then he lost to a pitiful - pitiful - aTm team. At Grant Field. And Dodd & the GTAA (with an elitist attitude) publicly proclaimed " we will always sell our 35,000 season tickets. Despite how good uga is or any impact from pro sports coming to Atlanta." And, even in late 60s, people south & west of south carolina border saw ACC football as a huge joke. Joining the ACC back then would not have helped us in the slightest retain any ticket sales. As for Broyles, he was then at a major school where he had won a MNC. AND he had, for all purpose, NO other instate U to recruit against. Not unlike Nebraska in their heyday (except more talent in Ark & Texas). But I believe Dickey was a better coach than Broyles. We had him, then idiots, said we had to hire a "Tech Man." Damn them, and also Dodds later in life ego. [/QUOTE]
