Article: No MNCs ever again

Dumb dumb.

Can actually get back to the level of winning P5 championships but no shot at the national championship

Yeah. Only a dumbass would cite this stupid article as a reason to hate our coach.
 
If I remember, that's the same thing that Bobby Dodd told Bill Curry when he left to go to Bama. Bobby Ross proved him wrong a few years later.
I believe Dodd told Curry he had a better chance for a NC at bammer than at GT. Hard to deny that.
 
Tech can win an ACC title in the future, but will not be considered in the playoffs as long as there are only 4 teams.

Any 1 loss ACC champion will probably get in most years. With our strength of schedule, there's no way we would get left out unless the other 4 conference champs were undefeated or something. It's a tall order, yes.
 
He said we’ll never win again so why make any changes?

good point. we should probably just end football altogether once the Only Coach We Can Have retires. What would we do without 65 rushing attempts/game??? How could we possibly win by lining up a TE on offense? The horror!!!
 
Is the national championship still mythical?

2020 for us - mark it down.
"We're gonna win big when Joe Hamilton is a senior."
"We're gonna win big when Reggie Ball is a senior."
"We're gonna win big when Josh Nesbitt is a senior."
"We're gonna win big when Justin Thomas is a senior."
Hope is what sustains mankind, and fankind is just a subset of mankind.

So cynical. Just wait until we get Vad Lee under center. I hear rumors of pistol formation.

I like this. We're gonna win big when Taquon is a senior!
 
Wasn't this article written in 1988 and just reprinted with a few names changed?
 
He said we’ll never win again so why make any changes?
He said we'd never win the national championship again, but he also listed a bunch of other, historically good programs, that he considered not able to win another one. He gave credible examples of why for each, and they made sense. I thought blaming the present coach/scheme/recruiting for something not happening 30 years from now was silly, but the author recognized, and so should we Tech fans, the game has changed. We always were a long shot, but the present system does, indeed, lock us out for the foreseeable future. Seismic changes would be needed for us to win an ACC championship anytime soon. Hell, I'd just like to be competitive with Duke and Virginia again. Some one said a one loss ACC champion would always make the final four. No way if that one loss champ was Georgia Tech. But this is so much pie in the sky for us. We are struggling to compete in our division, much less on the national scene. It sucks, but it is what it is.

Methinks you're overstating things. Seismic changes would be needed for us to win an ACC championship anytime soon? We were a play or two away from doing so in 2014. FSU was about as much of a powerhouse at the time that Clemson is now. What has drastically changed in just a few years? And you really don't think we'd make the CFP with one loss as ACC champs? That would mean we likely beat the likes of Clemson, uga, Miami, Virginia Tech and they are going to keep us out because what? The option? Wrong shade of gold? Grumpy coach? Again, it's a really high bar and would take a special group of guys to get there, but it's not literally impossible.
 
Anybody who thinks any GT team is super far away from anything should remember our 2015 team had just a single win over a power 5 team, and that team was in the top 10. We also did that exact same thing in 1988. Shit changes fast.
