Article on the AD search

Very good article with some good information. I have not been the biggest fan of DB but when I look at his career at Tech without prejudice, he has done a good job at Tech, and I wish him well in his retirement.

Tech has had some good ADs, and some great ones. In my opinion the greatest one in recent history was Homer Rice. We do have one candidate that received extensive training form Homer, and that candidate is Bill Curry.

This is one of the big reasons I support Bill Curry. He is the only candidate that received the non-replaceable training and experience from Homer Rice.

Of course I recognize the fact that Todd Stansbuty played football for BC and thus has received some of the same knowledge, but BC received it first hand. There is no replacement for training and experience, and although it is not apparent on the surface, BC has some of the most valuable training and experience that any single candidate that is being considerd have.

Curry might be good, no one knows for sure. I am afraid many will want to hire him for the wrong reasons however.

I just don't understand why, after hiring our last 2 AD who both had experience with the job, why so many are wanting to consider people who have zero experience.

There are a lot of questions to be answered. The AD job at GT is not one that should be handed out in the way some seem to be willing to.
 
text,
you are ablosutely zeroed in on the bullseye. You are exactly right in your statements and for that very reason, I say all the more reason to hire Bill Curry and I'd also prefer to get Stansbury in this deal in someway too. Keep up the good work text.
 
When you look at Bill Curry's resume he is unmatched in training and experience by any of the other candidates.

So ALL the candidates are known. We should look at none that aren't listed on the internet.

No doubt Rome. That is what lead us to hire BC instead of Spurrier, BL instead of O'L, Morrison instead of anybody, etc. Good work, keep it up.
 
Just out of curiosity, who are you supporting? I believe you should make your choice out of those that have been mentioned since that is all we have to work from now.

If you do have another potential candidate that has not been mentioned, you mshould introduce them also.
 
texstinger doesn't support anybody. He's just convinced that whoever we choose will be the wrong person.
