Re: I believe GT_Crew made the coach of the year
Gee, you conveniently left out Curry's first 4 years, Ross's first 2-1/2 years, the Lewis fiasco. The only time we actually improved was O'Leary's takeover (there was nowhere to go but up), but it took him until his fourth (4th) year to beat Georgia.
You say with Rogers came actual improvement, but that improvement was the same as the "big let down" with Gailey - ONE game.
We're not a football factory, you can't compare Alabama, UGA and Auburn - they get top players just by farting. GT is unique when it comes to recruiting and having to rebuild those relationships is devestating. FSU is no comparison, either, until Bowden came they had NO football tradition.
And now you're doing one of your favorite tricks: revising history to suit your agenda:

Hmmmm, 8-5 to 7-6 - big let down? A slight setback, I'd say. And before you jump on the "51-7" crap, just remember that was O'Leary's players that quit on Gailey. Then we lose TEN (that's 10) players to flunkgate, and yet we STILL went 7-6....I'm sorry, but that's only a big letdown in someone's very, very prejudiced (foggy? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugher.gif ) mind.
