What does the 404 mean to you?

404 is just a gimmick for young people. Last coach had to use smoke and mirrors to beat superior teams. The new coach needs smoke and mirrors to recruit highly rated players.

Newsflash, it’s working. I know it hurts some of you, but all of the gimmicks and buzzwords have drawn better recruits to Tech than we’ve had in a very, very long time.

Because the talent gap is still large, and the good talent are only in their second year.

Once again...the rest of the football world says FOUR years for talent turnaround. I know we GT people like to think we're the smartest people in the bunch but THREE is less than FOUR. And the contract is still for SEVEN years.

So bitching & moaning about it right now when there is absolutely ZERO chance of getting rid him and paying a buyout is meaningless and fruitless. If we're still having this discussion at the end of next year, then it's a valid concern. Until then, all the complaining is just wind.

It is going to take more than a flipped player roster to fix what is wrong with this team. If we don't flip some staff in the offseason I don't have high expectations for next year. Fortunately, most of that staff makes low $$ and buying them out shouldn't be a mountain to overcome. To make this clear, keep Collins; but overhaul his staff.

Seems the complainers have a legitimate complaint. We keep hearing that the players are playing at an elite level but we are not seeing elite results.
I think a lot of CGC problems can be linked to his absence of humility when he first took the job, disparaging the previous staff & system & talking about the biggest rebuild in college football history, forsaking long standing tradition at times to replace with forced attempts to rally the crowd ( money down ) , arrogant sneers at press conferences & an inability to quickly shoulder responsibility for team problems. He has dug himself into a pretty deep hole with the fan base with his demeanor.
He may ultimately be successful if he can focus on coaching his assistants to better prepare the players. If he can completely overhaul certain staff positions.
He is not fielding what looks like a well coached football team & I submit the talent is on hand for GT to be much better team than we have been seeing.

If those are the complaints you have, you're an idiot. You don't like his "sneers" in a press conference? Replacing long standing traditions in an attempt to "rally the crowd"? Well hell, let's tar & feather the guy. Doesn't he know that we don't want to be rallied?

Glad you address the really pertinent points in my post but apparently all you have are juvenile personal attacks. Heck read the board over the last couple of years where many have addressed the issues I cited.

Once again, you're showing your ignorance. Nick Saban wasn't going to win with the talent Johnson left on this team. So if you and others have been citing "lack of coaching" as the primary problem during the past couple of years when we were essentially looking for tuba players in the band who might be bigger than our current offensive linemen, then you guys are idiots.

But, by all mean, continue to bitch and moan and then point to other morons doing the same as justification for you being right and the rest of the non-GT football world being wrong.
