You can check it yourself if you're interested in what they say about everyone else, but here are the comments about GT. Some of the comments are fair and expected, but some of them are totally ignorant. I think we're going to surprise some folks this season.

"The new coaching staff has brought in a lot of attention. They really needed that, because Georgia Tech has been asleep for a long time. But this is still a transition year. They have to keep doing all the social media PR stuff, because when you're undoing a triple-option roster, you're gonna get your butt handed to you for a bit."

"They're going to have to rework their entire offensive line. We've had some visiting coaches who saw Tech tell us they're a ways off of being even decent. That's what you expect, though. These guys are smaller, four-point stance guys who have never gone into proper pass protection schemes."

"Tobias Oliver is their best quarterback, but he's definitely a triple guy. They could end up starting someone new if he can't make the throws."

"They have no tight end position, so they'll have to build that from scratch. They have no possession receivers and a lot of dudes who block and break out wide open on play-actions. Lots of work there."

"Defensively is a little bit better news — at least they have the right kind of bodies. They lost most of their key guys under Ted Roof. They were bad at creating pressures last year, and we'd been watching their defense get slower and less physical for a while."

"This job has always been a huge program waiting for the right guy. It looks like Geoff Collins is that guy. He’s a native and he can recruit like he’s in the SEC. He could make this team a force to be reckoned with four years from now, and he knows it."

The funny thing about stuff like this is a lot of the coaches talking down other programs will be out on their asses within the next year or two.
 
Who could possibly be able to say these disparaging things besides dabo.. who’s even that formidable besides Clemson in our conference. Quotes make it out like we’ll go 0-12
 
Comments are from staffs, not just head coaches, so it'd be really difficult to figure out who said what in most cases.

A bunch of coaches who don't want to give their opponents positive press.
 
Manny Diaz seems douchey enough to be behind one of the first two. I'm just going to go ahead and believe he said both.
