Coaching failure at an elite level

Even a worse performance since coach "he who must not be named" - coach after Bobby Ross. Offensive line play a mess, wide open WR's on defense, and not using using Gibbs almost every down.
 
Coming out of a timeout and going False Start and then Delay of Game in November of season 3 did it for me.

I'm done. Fire CGC immediately. He's just not a head coach at the P5 level. Before today, I thought "maybe I'm wrong" on everything I saw but I don't think that anymore.

CGC fails the very basics of college football coaching and shows no sign of improvement.

Fire him now.

Worst three year stretch since 6-25-2, ‘79-‘81.

I was thinking of this very thing. Those were Bill Curry’s first years and they were indeed dreadful. But Bill inherited less talent and far worse facilities; the weight room was under the North stands and had a dirt floor. At this point in Curry's tenure, some boosters approached Homer Rice with concerns and discussed replacing Bill. Rice told them he was happy with the direction of the program. I don’t see the same happening now.

Those were some dire times, as it’s been told the program was perhaps headed towards extinction. Homer Rice deserves a statue, and although a lot of people got down on Curry for leaving for Bama, I always liked the guy and thought he did an admiral job of bringing the program back from where it was, and was potentially headed.

Curry went 6-5 in his third year. That showed factual progress.

Clown Show owns arguably the worst three year result stretch in Georgia Tech football history, and that goes back to the 1890s.

Coach Dodd advised Curry to take the Alabama job. I heard Coach Dodd say that he did at an alumni event he attended in Nashville in the mid-1980's.

I’d say people forget about that, but the reality is a fair portion of the posters on here probably weren’t even alive. THAT was a major transformation. They do not understand what Rice was facing and hiring Curry was almost a wave the white flag moment. What we were facing in 2019 was a transition. You had half your offense in the Top 25 maybe Top 15 level, you needed the other half which was in the cellar around #100. Run and teach them how to pass & you win 7 or 8 games right out of the gate. You control games by riding your horses while you shore up the weak spots. You had a slightly below mediocre defense & needed a slightly above mediocre one. You don’t beat Clemp like that (except this year) but you can compete in the other 10 games and win the majority of those.

Collins is too dumb to understand the basics. He belongs with the Cheerleaders and the Dance Squad not the football team. Oh crap, think the Dance Squad is #1, keep him away from them!
 
So I had a different perspective of the game yesterday being up high and more behind the play than in a sideline seat.

You have no idea how bad the OL play is until you sit and see it from behind the play. I’m talking just complete lack of effort, cement shoes type of play by OL. They are getting beat so fast at the snap consistently. Then instead of trying to get back into the play they sling their arms down in a “damn I got beat” gesture as the QB is getting destroyed. They are awful on all levels.

Since 2019 we have had a false start after a timeout 5 times, which is tied for second most in the time span. It’s embarrassing.

edit, 5 not 6:bfd:

To think, some in the fanbase used to get upset with CPJ for burning a timeout to try and get a free 1st down. Now we're using timeouts to squeeze in additional penalties.
