DRad may be available as AD soon at Miami if Tech wants him back.

Which Tigernet internet coach will be hired at Tech ?

So many to choose from, and since they have never coached, they are undefeated.

honestly whats the ceiling at gtech

especially being 1st guy after paul johnson
definitely deserved more than the bare minimum 4 years for a new college head coach, so this was definitely not fair move barring any behind-the-scenes scandals/problems

There is a pretty high ceiling...they won a national championship in 1990, I think. 10 years more recent than UGA until last season, to put that in perspective.

Georgia Tech is a very proud football program, they could easily be a regular in the top 25 with the right fit

Collins was a dumb hire from the beginning...

He was getting worse, there's no excuse for going backwards. Georgia Tech used to be a solid program. Heck, Paul Johnson won 3 games in Athens and he averaged 8 wins per year. Bobby Ross had some real success there as well. Not sure what the ceiling is for them, but one thing is for sure, Collins set the bar incredibly low.

No love for GT but Collins was setup to fail. He had to change them from the triple option to a pro style and many of their best recruits left. The issues at GT is bigger than just the HC. They need to take football seriously or just drop it.

Re: TNET: GA Tech HC G.Collins fired - why not Clay Helton?
Sep 26, 2022, 11:32 AM

Maybe GA Tech should hire Clay Helton to be the next sacrificial FB coach.
Like Paul Johnson, C.Helton would be coming to Atlanta as former HC's at GA Southern.
I can't think of any other especially redeeming qualities about C.Helton ... other than that he has won more games at GA Southern so far in 2022 than GA Tech will during the entire 2022 season ... but GA Tech's FB success doesn't matter to me anyways.

Tech will have a difficult time of being relevant again. The portal and NIL will keep them down. They don't have the commitment from the fan base to support NIL.

Urban Myer's daughter and coaching Son-in-law are GT alumni. What about him as a Athletic Director if GT was willing to make significant investments? Or Coach? I know everyone hates him on this board.

While I am all for TNET reporting stories like this, I am troubled a bit by the tone of the story written by Tony Crumpton. The tenor of the story is a little bit too much gloating for me and diminishes the overall character that the typical Clemson fan shows to our competing schools in the ACC. Stick to the facts, tout the losing record and all that, but let's stay away from comments such as "Train Wreck". It is unnecessary and looks like we are relishing in other's misfortunes.

Danny Hugh Freeze Jr has never coached in the ACC. He would be the ideal candidate. Nerds and t3rds.
