Tech football is dead

It’s not dead, but it’s got a ways to go. As much as this sucks, it’s better than the last three years. Anyone that thought we would have a fast turnaround after going 14-32 the last four years is nuts.
I guess the mistake was thinking we'd improve on going 5-7. Would be an accomplishment to reach that high-water mark at this point.
 
Here's the problem... let's cut to the chase: The Institute has a serious issue when it comes to athletics. Like George O'Leary said over 25 years ago, this school wants to be Harvard Monday through Friday and Florida State on Saturday.

The administration simply doesn't give a rat's ass... from the president down to the janitor. The alumni is fractured over what they want from the program....some are happy with 6-6 seasons because they "worry about the value of their degrees.". Others want to win just a couple more games a season and hopefully.......beat Georgia three times a decade. Nobody really wants to have a program like Georgia, Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson, etc.

Only a complete, fundamental change in the attitude of the Institute will things ever improve.

I can't believe that 1997 to 2017 will be remembered as the last glory years of Georgia Tech football! It's really sad to think about it.

GO JACKETS!!

Tech has been going down the last couple of decades.

The annoying elitist culture was something I constantly ran into. There’s tons of people that see those with interest in athletics as intellectually inferior.

We need to expand enrollment and increase acceptance rates to have an decent school football culture.

What will you think if we end up 3-9, with just three miracles keeping us from being 2-10? Because that's what I would bet on, if I had to bet.

Never gonna happen.

And severely limit foreign enrollment.
