Seriously, it's basically Temple coaches as Collins said in his teleconference yesterday. I assume many here will be disappointed but iiwii.

Why disappointed?
I mostly care about OC
Seems like most folks did not want mostly Temple coaches but that is who CGC knows and likes and frankly what we can afford. He put together what he thinks is a very good staff at Temple so he thinks they will come in ready to work knowing each other well.

When it comes to putting a coaching staff together, I'll go with the opinion of someone who knows exactly what he wants and knows exactly what he's going to get over a bunch of message board doofuses who also know exactly what they want but have no freaking idea what they are going to get.

I agree 100%. But I also love continuity on any team/staff (think Nebraska or Penn State back in the day). The Temple team was very good this year and should be great next year. I am hopeful we will be great by their 3rd year at GT. These guys are going to come in and all be on the same page from day one. Obviously, it will be a huge adjustment for the players but not for the staff. And 25-30 of the players will be new anyway come August.

How are 25-30 players going to be new unless walk-ons? You got inside info that Tech will be over signing? I thought they could only sign 17. Who's leaving?

Including grad transfers I expect CGC to sign 23-25. I believe we are at 18 right now.
