öööö you Paul Johnson

Duke is not for sure at this point. Georgia Southern and UVA maybe yeah but play like shit they can lose 1 or 2 out of those three.

I haven't seen anything this season to lead me to believe we'll compete at all with UNC, VT or UGA. Maybe a fluke win out of those.

San Jose State was 2 and 10 in 2009 before he started as head coach in 2010. He left after an 11 and 2 2012 season that included a bowl win. They finished 24th in the country.
Colorado was 1 and 11 in 2012 before he started in 2013. He has yet to have the dramatic turn around he had at San Jose State. However, Colorado is 4 and 2 this year with road losses to Michigan and USC west.
It seems to me he has shown the potential to turn programs around.

UNC getting killed by VT gives me a modicum of hope, but generally you are correct. What I see is a downward trending program. With Bobby Ross, I could see an upward trend. Little bitty guy though. When I first met him, I could not believe he played football.
 
We need a head coach with a value proposition. What is CPJ building at Tech?

Answer: nothing.

He isn't offering anything that the school isn't already offering. CPJ offers 0 incremental value.

Are you watching Miami right now? Looks liken Richt took the latent talent turned Miami into a true top-10 team. Do you want others?

Ask yourself what CPJ is woeking toward at GT. What is it he is telling us he is building the program to do? Do you see evidence of that?

Johnson's value proposition is that the offense neutralizes some of our disadvantages. I think there's some truth to that, but it's just not working anymore for one reason or another.

I agree; it isn't working anymore.
 
CPJ isn't building anything. He is resting on his previous successes while the ACC hires better coaches on both sides of the ball. Give me a coach with a plan to build something.

People said the same thing when they wanted him fired at the end of 2013. Shit, I think it was even worse then. And look at what happened the next season.

You're being obtuse. Of course both sides of the ball are responsible. The point is that, overall, the offense played well enough to win with an average defensive performamce. We did not get an average defensive performance, so we lost. That has been an all-too-common occurrence under CPJ. (And before you say it, yes that is obviously Johnson's fault)

There's at least one person here who doesn't agree with our mutual 'both sides' opinion.

We scored 27 pts on offense. Not great in today's college football but not the only reason we lost. D certainly gets its share...but, like the O, it did make some good plays and some bad ones.

Points don't tell the whole story. In fact, they do a very poor job of it. We scored on 6 of our 9 possessions. That's 67%. In contrast, Clemson slaughtered BC 56-10, but only scored on 58% of their possessions.

Our style of play limits the number of possessions we have, so efficiency numbers are much more telling. Our offense was actually pretty good for most of the game today, and our defense was pretty bad.

The CPJ O also decreases the size of our already limited recruiting pool because of kids, both on O and D, not wanting to play in it.

And the season after that.

If what we get with 8 years of CPJ is 3 great years, 4 average ones, and one bad one, sign me up for more of that. Every program in the country, even ones with much more talent, have down years. There's a reason our bowl streak was one of the longest in the country.
