Re: GT\'s recruiting notebook from Augusta Chronicle
Ace, I feel some of your frustrations, and in my case these have been creeping in but have nearly 100% arrived......there are several things that REALLY HURT:
"Most Internet message boards do not require participants to list their real names."
(From the posted article)
I am by no means a real bravado, but I sincerely wonder how all the posts would be if people had to come out from the "cover" of a Psuedonmym. All I can say in this situation is "Very interesting to think of".
Happy? No!!
Content: No!!
Satisfied: No!!
Dissapointed: Yes!!
Really "let down": Yes!!
Disgusted: Yes !!
Still behind CG and staff: yes!! but becoming a "what have you done for us lately type"!!
Bottom line: "Extreme production soon, or the bottom drops out." To Coach CG and any who have his ear: You have let him down thus far; so I addresss Coach Chan directly: Coach, begin to communicate or get someone to do it for you, NOW!!!!!! Else, you do not want to sail the rocky seas that are before you. Production is the name of the game......period. You know this and so, you must act upon it. Since we have had mediocre "production", The indians are restless, those who have stood up for you are restless......hang us out to dry and you (sorry to say) will hang with us.
The time is: NOW!!! Commmunicate!!!!!!!! You have some starving affectionados who have stood for you and your staff and you need to respond to them, and show that everything is looking good if not great. Rehire the producers or fire the non-producers; that is the only way you shall survive this vicious world of college football.
Losing "semis" to lesser schools and then having to go below your first, and sometimes second choices in verbals/signees is not good news.....Please wake up!!! Come to the aid of those who have stood up for you.......Make a significant splash or at least tell us what the problem is......Confession is good for the soul and also for the souls of those who have stood with you.
How I would seem as a repliant fool from the actions of Coach Gailey and his staff in the hours ahead. I would be most happy to be such . Glory!! So be it....... I hope everything I have said proves to be totally premature.
