With the one exception, Ga Tech's athletic programs have gone way downhill since leaving the SEC. There is also too much competition in Atlanta for the fans' sport dollar.
I'm sorry, but that's just not correct. Bill Curry was hired by Alabama in January 1987. Even if we want to say he gets credit for those who arrived at GT in the fall of 1987 (and would have been seniors in 1990), the major players on that team were Shawn Jones, Ken Swilling, Mike Mooney, William Bell, and Scott Sisson. Not one of those guys was recruited by Curry to GT.Fixed ��

dabaxter disagrees and feels this will come back around as a dominant offense again.Absolute irrelevance of Georgia Tech makes one thing perfectly clear: No school of any real size should ever hire a head coach who intends to install an antiquated scheme that almost no one with any real prospects of an NFL future will ever even consider playing in.
The triple option is, no doubt, a "fun" offense to watch. But that doesn't change the fact that employing it is basically career suicide for a legitimate BCS conference school.
The Curse of George O'Leary.Georgia Tech has gone from sharing a national title under Bobby Ross to a place where Clemson, Florida State, and Georgia fans get the kind of seats they could only dream of in the their home stadiums when they travel to play the Jackets. It's sad to see.
Eh, yes and no on that one.Georgia Tech has gone from sharing a national title under Bobby Ross to a place where Clemson, Florida State, and Georgia fans get the kind of seats they could only dream of in the their home stadiums when they travel to play the Jackets. It's sad to see.
