Dammit, I looked it up. That was the damn game. A 40 yard TD pass, an 80 yard TD pass, a FG, and that damn pick in the endzone when we threw the ball across the middle instead of just handing it to PJ Daniels and winning the ballgame. NC State, other than those two passes, had 132 in the air and 56 yards rushing total. We had 164 rushing and 279 passing and looked like the much better team.
Quick. Switch your thoughts to Miracle on Techwood!
He took Duke to the ACC Championship game. Do you think CGC will?
No. These fonts pump out more ridiculous posts as naturally as they breathe.
Based on current trajectory and improvements made, yes.
No that's really not good at all. You're going to say GT is outperforming all of these other schools simply based on this years record with no regard to the overall performance? It doesn't work that way. You can be a good employee and 1 crappy week at work doesn't make you a bad employee. Alternatively, you can be a crappy employee and 1 good week at work doesn't suddenly make you a good employee. When you look at winning percentage headed into 2021, CGC was 13/14 of ACC coaches. He is not underpaid by any metric. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nca...-brown-dave-doeren/17kj32wsp05s31k2ujnmrzrewo
Yes but that wasn't the context, the point is that if you actually watch the games you cannot tell me that CGC is one of the better coaches in this league. The NIU game shouldn't have been close. Clemson is surprisingly bad this year. The out-of-nowhere wins against Miami and FSU just add to the fact this coach is not a great coach but a salesman.
Wake is 28th in national university rankings from US NewsWR, tied with UNC, NYU. Just very slightly below UVA, Carnegie Mellon and Michigan. I’d call that lower tier 1, decent solid national brand. Not at level of Duke, Ivies, Stanford, Hopkins, etc of course.
Absolutely that’s what I’m saying. Even at #13 CGC would be outperforming his salary. But he’s not the 13th best coach. Even beyond just win-loss metrics, CGC is outperforming the other coaches. What’s our recruiting ranked again?
Mediocrity is goal for year 4, championships year 6.
You've completely lost me. How is having the 13th best winning percentage out of 14 coaches considered "outperforming?" And really you're going to bring up recruiting rankings as a measure of success? Come on... That's athens talk...
Then we can just fire our head coach every 3 years to placate the dumbasses on the board who *think* they know what it takes to make GT successful.
Let me ask this simply for you. If you are projected to finish a race 14th but you finish 13th, have you outperformed expectations?
100%. I’d guess we’re 2 years from it.
And an old man on a downhill slope
He beat Alabama. Surprised Texas A&M didn't give him a $200 million contract after the game.
GT - you can sell Atlanta, program history, and the GT degree to recruits
Duke - you can sell the Duke degree to recruits
