Gailey Must Go

After watching the Virginia Tech game, I reached a sad conclusion with respect to Coach Chan Gailey. In my humble opinion, he must resign or be fired by no later than the last day of this season.

The second half of this game sealed his fate. He was completely outcoached at halftime by Coach Beamer. His team was unprepared and uninspired in the second half. The offense and the defense were conspicuous by their absence. Painfully poor play calling and horrible execution fed on each other. Ultimately, the head coach must be held responsible.

Since he was fired after his only two years as an NFL head coach, I never considered him a great pro coach. However, he was adequate enough to get and hold coordinator's positions with several NFL teams. It would be in both his and Tech's best interest for him to return to the pro ranks. As Steve Spurrier showed, there are differences between coaching pro and college football that make some coaches effective in one and ineffective in another.

I will not change my mind even if he wins out this year. I have seen all I need to see. I know many people do not agree with me, but I believe they will in the near future.

I also do not care how good a recruiter he is. Recruiting doesn't mean anything if you can't coach effectively. Being a good person does not make one a good coach either. If it did, we could hire my preacher.

I have contributed thousands of dollars to Tech in the past 25 years. I will not contribute another penny until Gailey is gone. I will be writing Dave Braine and Chan Gailey and informing them of this later today.

Anybody who sat through the Virginia Tech game and still thinks Gailey should be our coach is in denial. That was a very sad and persuasive performance. Georgia Tech has never settled for mediocrity in anything, and we shoudn't start now with our football program.
 
2 posts....?

you should worry about the Tenn loss. UF will play tough this week too.
 
The Last Line of Defense...

is to criticize a post based on the number of previous posts by the poster. I may not have posted a lot, but I know what I saw at that game. What did you see?
 
Re: 2 posts....?

What the hell does the fact that he/she has (2) posts have to do with anything??? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wtf.gif

Fort Valley, I agree with everything you say. However, I want to add that I don't believe CG is a good recruiter, either. We get all excited because, for example, he gets Calvin Johnson, who is definitely a big-time player. At the same time, however, UGAg gets a dozen or so big-time players. We go for the 3-star guys, they go for the 4-and-more stars.

Whether a coach is going to do the job of turning around a program is usually hinted at in his first season, when - if he has what it takes - he beats the people he should beat, and scares a couple of others. CG has rarely done that in 3 seasons, let alone his first.

Time to cut our losses, guys and gals.
 
Re: Gailey Must Go, Amen Brother!!

**NM**

Hell, what else can you say about this
sorry-assed coached team?

# Posts matter b/c it is VERY easy for a Ugag poster to register....wait until we lose THEN start saying how bad this will hurt recruiting, coach needs to be fired, and etc.

If someone has posted numerous times then it is EASIER to smell the dog hair on them.

ON ANY BOARD probably at least 5% are imposters!
 
Re: #

Law, once again I am sorry to say this, but your "loyalties" seem to be in need of questioning. If Fort was a dawg, then it would be obvious he would want us to keep CG, not get rid of him.
However, you seem to see no problem whatsoever. It would seem to indicate that you detect no problems with the happenings on the field. I suggest that you now go back to the dawg, carolina or whatever boards.
 
Tex, I have never had the privelege of meeting
you sir, but I would like to very much 'cause
I beelieve you just as I really care about our
football program and we can easily see the
downward spiral that is taking place under
CCG.

It's people like LB and his other FOCER's
who are constantly putting a spin on why
CCG should stay as HC at GT.

Tex, sir I salute you and all the other
"true" GT fans who have seen the light
of the day and have come to realize that
CCG must be fired and the sooner the
better!!!

Re: 2 posts....?

hey law bee - look and see what number this post is. I guess I am a dog in jacket's clothing as well. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/soapbox.gif I get sick of post count snobs judging the merit of a post by the length of time the poster has been on the board.

Honestly, Tech fans are for the most part too self important. The folks in Athens really don't give us much thought. I for one would like us to start beating them consistantly enough to make it so they did hate us like they hate Tennessee and Florida. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rant.gif

On any board? No, I think it's only here and the Hive where we have some people who think they are online mindreaders who subscribe to a conspiracy theory and a heightened sense of paranoia.

The witch-hunt is part of the reason why GT's fan base is so divided.
 
I can't believe how we self-destructed in this game, but I don't know if it is grounds for dismissal.

Will you guys stop digging up old threads? If you can't figure out anything to say on your own, then you probably shouldn't post anything. This is getting pitiful. Are you going to find every post after every loss for the last 5 years? Why stop there? The boards got really heated when Tech lost to BC to start the year under O'Leary. Why not find those?

Not that I want to make excuses for GTKyle, but what has been happening is this new poster digs up an old thread then deletes his post so you don't know who did it.
 
The mods need to clean this up then. And when they ID who is doing it, give them a little time out. It's pretty gutless to start something and then cover your tracks.

trying to keep his job now that stingtalkers have turned him in. Maybe jizzy was Drad and demjackets told him they both needed to quit posting.
 
It's pretty weak sauce to bump a thread and then delete your own. If you're going to act like a board troll, at least stick around to take your medicine.

I'm getting concerned as I agree wholeheartedly with every post I read of yours tyhe last few weeks. Now, we (you and I) need to come to an agreement on whether Hall is a great coach, a good coach, or holding GT back. If we could agree on the baseball program i would never need to post again and could just let you post for both you and me;)

BTW, I think Hall is a very good coach but think we would do better with someone else. Unfortunately, he's good enough that the only way he leaves is by his own doing. now this pitching coach hire might cause some issues for long-time Hall supporters. It's a risky hire I think most would agree.
 
I didn't read the date. I thought it was a posters sarcastic attempt at Friday morning QB -- only on Monday morning.
