Agree. An Intramural coach could probably have won 3 games.
He didn’t want you/us either so no harm, no foul, no imaginary win totals
Sounds more like strap on to me
You’re over 60 years old and wasted your time to post this?
It doesn't matter who wanted what or whom, and my opinion of Whiz is just that, an opinion, but it is also my opinion that if he had wanted Tech, regardless of me and my opinion, my opinion now is that he would have done a helluva lot better than the clown we have.
Paul Johnson has forgotten more football than Monken knows. Paul Johnson could not recruit or have success with the TO anymore when he retired. Johnson is certainly better than Monken. What makes you think Monken could do better?
I wasn’t comparing Monken to PJ. I was just saying Monken would win more than 3 games 3 seasons in a row. That is a FACT!
I was not advocating that we should have hired Monken or trying to get in an endless debate over the 3/0.
I’m not sure that’s a fact if he doesn’t have Gibbs and Sims (he wouldn’t) and signs recruiting classes full of players that should be playing FCS—-he likely would.I wasn’t comparing Monken to PJ. I was just saying Monken would win more than 3 games 3 seasons in a row. That is a FACT!
Like any lawyer alive gives a hoot about your opinion!!!!!
It wasn't necessarily "him" that required the 7 year contract. Our administration had decided it was time to move on from the 3O. Nobody out there would have come in and had to undertake turning over our roster and shifting away from the option without a long contract, unless you wanted to hire somebody off the street with no coaching history whatsoever.
And think about CPJ and his decision to retire, which saved GT much $$. Yet CPJ did more for GT football than Coach Clown will ever do and it will cost GT millions to get rid of him.
I am truly amazed that some people hate the 3/0 so much they can’t agree with the obvious fact that it would’ve won 4 games in one of 3 seasons.
Years five through seven should have been contingent on tangible progress in the number of wins. There are contract incentives for Collins. There are no performance thresholds protecting Tech.
I agree the contract could/should have been written differently and maybe had more contingencies built-in, but as far as length that we were discussing earlier, I still believe anyone worth having would require one of that length. As far as scheduling goes, I don't think it's very plausible (maybe not even possible at all) to change any of those OOC games this late. Also, I don't think anybody expected it to be this rough going into year 4. I think a .500 team was expected by now and next year's schedule should be fine if we kept improving on that.
3 million reasons no one would take it?
Good coaching trumps recruiting stars all day everyday....
