[QUOTE="Randy Carson, post: 917219, member: 766"] A lot of folks have questioned whether IHCBK is the right man for the job because of ugly losses to UVA, FSU and Miami. To me, the UVA game is the real head scratcher. But at the same time, it seems reasonable to ask how #21 Pitt fans felt about losing to Tech in BK's first game as HC. Or how #15 UNC fans felt about dropping a game to us at home last week. Tennessee beats Alabama and gets blown out by SC? Games like these happen. So, given where the Tech FB program is at present, I'm not sure that our W-L record is the best overall indicator of BK's potential as a HC. Instead, I would look to see whether the team has turned a corner, gotten back on track, and begun making incremental improvements that add up over time. [LIST] [*]Has practice intensity been dialed up? [*]Does the team look better prepared come game time? [*]Are better sideline decisions being made? [*]Are the players saying good things about and staying loyal to their coach? [*]Are we still picking up quality recruits despite the uncertainties? [/LIST] The answers to these questions appear to be an unequivocal "Yes". Key may not get the job, but if he doesn't, I don't think that the three losses will be the reason. Citing them against BK's candidacy for HC is not a valid argument. [/QUOTE]
