Sims was higher ranked than Pyron is by a good margin. I know we offered an 8th grader in Carrollton, but he has yet to play a varsity game.

Yeah Sims was a top 10 dual threat out of high school. Pyron seems to be more like a Kenny Pickett type recruit... which i mean.. I would be ok with.. but I love how dynamic Sims is and see how he could potentially be like a RG3 type of guy. Just gotta let him progress and put him.
in positions to shine. Maybe more keepers? I dunno

Scratch both of them. PJ wouldn't adapt or recruit. The present staff can't coach. Those are not the bars, clean house and go find a football coach, there is no risk, what have we got to lose?

Cpj talked constantly about not getting the money needed to recruit. Our staff and budget were at the bottom of the acc. His ad (mbob) was absent for years. I'm not saying he's a master recruiter, but he wasn't getting much support.

And the floodgates of $$$ didn't magically open for recruiting. We still struggle. Our current fundraising activities to replace the Edge Center would have probably taken a few months at a factory school.

Stop supping the cap, or something.

Pretty sure our staff budget is still near the bottom of the ACC.

Really though, how much $$$ did he need to drive around metro ATL HSs and recruit, something that same ATL HS coaches said was not happening under PJ?? Why the need to go to SC and other bordering states to find small'ish OL men being ignored by P5 schools? Couldn't he find those guys locally?

Plus, we did build a brand-new SOtA indoor practice facility back in 2011 that was supposed to improve recruiting. PJ Fan Club conveniently forgets this investment, as did PJ.

It's good to have a HC who doesn't bash our school anymore.

Tech indoor facility to provide recruiting edge

One of the more important facets of Georgia Tech’s Brock Indoor Football Practice Facility is a slab of polished concrete about 14 feet above field level.

This was built by D Rad who then left for Clemson and supported their athletics quite a bit. We then received no support from Bobinski for quite some time. D Rad hired CPJ so of course he supported the team and program. He just left in the middle of it for a better opportunity.

-PJ requested money be spent.
-Money was spent.
-Recruiting didn't improve.
-PJ still didn't recruit locally.
-PJ blames the school.

There is a difference in capital budget and operational budget. Improvements have been made at both the Edge and our Indoor facility.
 
Not much doubt in my mind Johnson would've had more success with Stansbury at AD. How much more I don't know. Johnson wasn't a good salesperson like Collins but maybe he would've gotten some staff that were good salespeople.

Bobinski, basketball guy from Xavier, may have made a good (7th choice?) hire in Pastner though. Time will tell.

The whole "Bobinski was never there" narrative--is that the truth or just the Paul Johnson perspective? Regardless it's pretty clear to me that Stansbury is more on top of things GT.

And "nearly" 5-6? We won in 2008 with some of the best talent we have ever had at GT. Lost in 2009 with some of the best talent we have ever had at GT. We then went to losing until we luckily had JT5 Grace the team and win two for us. Otherwise, that's it. There is no "almost 5 wins" . By your measure, we should have kept Chan for his almost wins against UGAg

You need to go back and rewatch that 2014 win vs. the mutts before you give Thomas credit for that win. I’ll give him credit for 2016 but I tip my cap to Isaiah Johnson, DJ White, Zach Laskey and Harrison Butker for 2014. Thomas gave the mutts 2 TDs .
