Well ask yourselves this, if you were given the reins of Georgia Tech football and given an opportunity to build a team that wins 10 games, maybe become a playoff team or even win the whole thing would you go to Bama if they offered you $10M instead of $4M? We will build a statue for the man if he can accomplish those things but Bama would fire him in 2 years if he’s not making the playoffs. When Geoff Collins said that this was his dream job I didn’t believe him for a second but without Key making any such remarks I know this is his dream job. He’s here for life.
I believe RichRod loved WVU. He had them humming at a pretty high level. But he left for the money.
Our ceiling is likely 9 win seasons. With the playoff system, we could probably make a once a decade appearance by winning the ACC.
Is that enough to satisfy a top coach? There aren’t many like the coach at Iowa. Most will leave a good situation to take a shot at being a college football legend like Saban, not a school legend like Beamer.
