Who\'s Running the Show?
Having considered what the media has put before us, I am sickened by recent events with revelations in recent coaching hires.
GT has always held itself to a higher standard academically and otherwise. After having graduated, I learned long ago that these standards extend beyond graduation to honesty and ethics professionally and personally.
The O'Leary matter behind us, I believe all of us looked toward a new beginning...a fresh start, with a new regime and most importantly, a new attitude. This new attitude would affect (as it should) the players initially. With their renewed enthusiasm, it would quickly spread to the alumni and fan base. (You can forget the AJC! Even if we played 12 games and won the Rose Bowl, they would find fault.)
Am I missing something here, though? Aren't the chances to correct one's resume just before it is submitted to the prospective employer? It does not matter how many times you attempt to make a resume correction. If it is not corrected, you continue your efforts until it IS corrected.
Intentionally leaving a supposed fact ON a resume is the same as an outright lie. It is the end-result that should matter most to an individual's sense of ethics and pride in his/her profession.
Explanations thus far by both newly-hired coaches are lame at best.
Whom to blame is irrelevant now. Rid GT of the falsifiers and return the Tech program to one of integrity.
