    Man people needed to hear that. Johnsons said that in his interview when Collin’s came in saying we’re gonna be great again. When really maybe when Bobby Dodd was coaching we were great but we had the best stretch in the last 40 years when he was coach. So I don’t get why people have high expectations that we’re going to the natty in our second year like GA when Kirby inherited a very talented roster.

    As a Syracuse fan -- unless you guys are going to pay your players $15mm+ you do not want to fire a coach getting 7ish wins per season. Only the football factories like UGA, Bama, Ohio State can realistically expect more than that. I think your defensive scheme asks your linebackers to do a little too much, especially with no pass rush, but on the whole GT is a well coached team.

    Regarding Christian Leary, rumor has it he wanted to Redshirt and the coaches disagreed. Second, while I continue to believe our O-Line is one of our strengths, both Syracuse and now Louisville seem to have found some keys to defeat their run blocking. That said, by the 4th quarter Buster should have recognized we weren't going to be able to smash mouth our way to a 1 yard first down, as painful as it is to admit it. And the Falcons must not have watched our game as they made the same mistake on Sunday night.

  • @davidturk6170

    I think reality is catching up to a lot of fans expectations. Defense is still a work in progress. Offense is geared towards the run. We knew this. Other teams know this. What I’m hoping is that Tech can adjust the offense to what the opponents want to give us. We did have more offensive yards than L’ville, so we are moving the ball. Time to fine tune when opportunity presents itself. I’m not disappointed yet, since we can still make a bowl; never thought we’d be in the hunt for the ACC championship. I’m in the, let’s see what changes are developed for the next game.

    Key has done a very good job. He has turned the program around and changed the expectations of the players and fans. Does he make mistakes? Absolutely. IMHO there is no reason to compare him to past coaches. They are gone. Give him a chance and he will shine!
    King is a very good QB. Has he made mistakes? Yes. Remember, while he has played his position for several seasons, he is still learning. Let's give him a chance.
    The offense was not the problem at Louisville. Defense was not the problem. Two bad plays made the entire difference. Corrections will be made.

    I will stand by Key as coach, would love to see things mixed up better in play calling. I truly believe we have strong talent in the secondary, but we have poor execution in defensive coverage. I hope the future games will not allow a QB to pick us apart with yardage.....leading to an easy run in score. I just hope all will start to gel more as the season progresses. Being a Tech fan for 50years has been tough.....but, I will remain a solid supporter ( with my occasional take or opinion on the games). Go Jackets !!! Play fast , play strong !!!

    @TheKiman2 Месяц назад

    Looking at average wins is not a good indicator. We should be looking at "what was the trajectory of the program?" and "what was the highest moment during the coach's tenure". Trajectory-wise, O'Leary was the only one I can remember that left on a high. For the highest moments, obviously it's Ross, then O'leary, then Johnson; Ross achieved it the quickest, followed by Johnson, then O'leary. Put aside Johnson's offense, I think many people would take a couple of 11 win seasons with a pair of 9 win seasons, mixed in with the average seasons being the rest because he gave us the highs. Key needs to prove he can take this team on a positive trajectory and eventually give us an occasional high.

      We know that King will make some poor decisions, when trying to do too much. The problem is walking the line between too much and just enough gunslinging. He made one (really) bad decision, which led to a defensive score for Louisville. We still could have overcome that mistake, with just a couple of 1 yard gains, for resetting the downs. I saw, at least, one play where we had players standing around and not helping to push the runner, on a 1 yard play. The way to keep King from making a bone headed play, is to take some of the pressure off, by having the other players, step up and carry some of the workload.
      I would like to see us run 1 yard plays, from under center. We had another short yardage run stuffed, by a player that had time to loop around from the end of the line, to fill the gap, before the runner could get there.

    The offense is not the problem I mean this team on offense has been in pretty much every game so far and if it wasn't for Haynes King I don't think this team would be where they are now. But don't forget that most of the players that are on this team is the players that Geoff Collins recruited. So Key is dealing with players that Collins brought on board. Key has admitted that this team isn't where he wants it to be at the moment but wait until the players that he has recruited starts playing. I mean before Kirby Smart took over Georgia it took that program a couple of years to get to where it is today. So give Key a few more years and he will have this program right up there with the likes of Georgia

    I truly believe that Key is right coach for the GT job, and I believe in him. I have extremely high (maybe impossible) expectations for HC Key. I like his OC and DC. That said, the results are not what we want or expect. Key is one hard headed, stubborn SOB. It's his way or no way. That will get you an L quicker than anything. Given enough time, I think Key can learn and adapt, but I don't know how much longer I can stand the dumb preventable Ls. Is Key trying to establish a team culture of being a hard ass tough team? Looks like it, but he doesn't have the player talent for that type of squad. Those boys are Ohio St, Michigan, Penn St.. Bama, UGA , & Clemson. At our player talent level, we have a better chance of being a Ol Miss, Oregon or Washington. I keep telling myself to have patience. This is only year 2 and Key doesn't have "his" players. Plus, I said at the end of last season, 7 wins is a successful season. Tantor has moved the goal posts on HC Key. I need to stick to 7 wins and a nice bowl trip in 2024. I need to see some progress in the process!

Faulkner a play calling this past game was absolutely horrendous. Nobody can deny that. In fact, it’s been bad all year bc he’s been way too conservative. Our offense has digressed since last year with basically the exact same offense?!? How? That’s called coaching. Do I think they need be fired? No. Do I think they better step it up big time? Absolutely! The clock management, play calling, getting the right people in, calls in to king all need to be better. We look lost!! Now, everything else you said I agree with. Anyone who says king needs to be benched just doesn’t know football. Plain and simple. The Paul Johnson and triple option people are idiots too.

We aren’t a national team and I don’t expect to be that. But asking for 7-8 wins should be reasonable. And this team isn’t going to do it. Watching Key mismanage the clock, not veto calls, and frankly not getting the guys prepared is what makes me and others upset. I’ve always said next year is truly our year with the schedule we have.

There are alot of things wrong in the system, we do nèed a pass rush, you bring these one and done transfer kids and your recruits never develope. The offense stalls alot and the defense is on the field, corners get most of the blame when the soft zone is the issue and the LB inability to cover and the Safeties are nowhere in support coverage.
