My last game as a student was the Georgia game in Bobby Dodd in 2021. Collins had all the energy but just could not produce any on field results. I hate seeing how far we’ve fallen from being somewhat competitive against uGA every year to now just the absolute doormat. We’re a program with real history and could be solid, but it’s going to be a tough rebuild.

As a Georgia fan I really want Tech to become competitive in the acc. Clean old fashioned hate has become a punch line instead of a great rivalry

As a young Tech student, I always looked forward to football games, especially given our history. After two seasons under Collins, I can't lie when I say I dread football games. It's embarrassing. And for the few students who do show up on Saturdays at Bobby Dodd, all we have the courage to yell is "F*** Geoff Collins" on every 3-and-out we have, and trust me, we have plenty. It's gotten so bad, that our marching band only plays our fight song (touchdown anthem) whenever we convert first downs, since we never score. It's tough, but only up from here. Yo Yackets.

Geoff Collins should have been fired after last year’s Georgia game. This year’s season was over the minute they lost double digits to Clemson, (which I predicted!) They want win another game this season!

I swear man it’s so sad that this era of Tech football has now made people believe we are a Vandy or Duke type program. We are not. Georgia Tech is a place with a history of winning and one of the longest active bowl streaks before it ended in 2015. People show their ignorance regarding college football when they say stuff like that considering Tech has not only won an ACC championship in the last 20 years (Miami has not for example), but we have been to two orange bowls, won one of them and have gone to a bowl game 17 out of the last 22 years if you count 2022 as not going to be bowl eligible

The best formula for GT to compete against the pinnacle of power 5 teams is to go back to running a spread option attack with modern passing concepts. The answer is Brian Bohannon or Jeff Monken. When you win games, better recruits generally come.

As a UGA fan there were times where I got nervous that Collins was building a good team and weirdly enough it was kind of exciting I want the rivalry to mean something again. It’s too bad it didn’t materialize

What did you think was going to happen positively bringing in a defensive coordinator with very limited head coaching experience to a school who does not support the football program financially. I mean the commitment is just not there I don't care what your recruiting area is like there's no commitment to facilities ,salaries for assistant coaches that even resemble a 21st century football program . You get what you pay for.........

As a second year AE major at Tech, I have definitely seen the decrease in morale in not just the fans but also the team. They want to be there but with the lack of overall support it's tough to keep up any momentum and I feel there was a lack of reviving student support made by the coaching staff or football program in general.

I knew he was terrible in his very first game when he had his team lifting weights on the field before the game vs Clemson 😂

It’s almost like hype and branding doesn’t win football games. Who could have possibly predicted this besides absolutely everyone?

Gotta do Herm Edwards bro. Love the videos man!

As part of the 80% your content is good thanks

as a michigan fan i’m a michigan fan

I love your videos!

Georgia Tech was on a downward slope WELL before Johnson left. As a GT fan, it was annoying seeing the triple option rain every play by him when the opposing D saw it coming from a mile away!

As a lifelong Tech fan, I believe everyone bought into the hype about Collins but I completely agree that we needed a more experienced coach to transition from the triple option. I wouldn't say that Collins was doomed from the start, he coached more waiting for bad things to happen instead of being proactive and making good things happen. Collins coached not to lose as opposed to coaching to win.

Even without the hindsight of the last two weeks of victories under Interim Coach Brent Key, Collins seemed either unwilling or unable to lead a team that was both disciplined or prepared to play week to week. The different quotes that he would say about building a brand and culture could be seen as nothing more than empty sentences that missed the whole point that the only culture and brand that matters is winning and building an internal infrastructure that can help with that (see Atlanta Braves organization). The phrase used car salesman seems to be the only accurate phrase of a barely decent Temple coach who talked his way into Georgia Tech.

No P5 head coach would go there. Would have to get a coordinator or a lower level G5 head coach. Collins was yet another AAC head coach who left a program where he could have stayed and been happy and been given a long leash but left for the "greener pastures" of the P5. Almost all of them have failed. Only Mike Norvell has done well, and Josh H at Tennessee have been semi successful. While Tennessee has been great, we saw Butch Jones start out 4-0 and be fired a year or so later, so the book is still out on them. It amazes me that 1) none have done better, as if you can turn Memphis or UCF into a top 25 program, how can you not do it at Nebraska or Virginia Tech or Tennessee or Arkansas? 2) these smaller programs had more talent than the programs they went to. Norvell's 2018 Memphis team would have whipped any FSU team in the last 3 years. 3) it makes me think that there must be a big difference between developing three stars and developing four and five stars. 4) I also wonder if these coaches have wished they had stayed. They were semi-gods in their town and could have done whatever they wanted. 3 years later most of them are out of a job. If they could go back in time would they do it again? Was it just the money or was it more? If Memphis had agreed to pay Norvell $5 million would he have stayed? I mean they just raised $200 million for a new facility, but two million extra for the head coach could have gotten them another new year six bowl and possibly into the Big 12. Gary Patterson stayed at TCU and got them into the Big 12. Luke fickle stayed at Cincinnati and got them into the Big 12. Sometimes I just think that these coaches should stay where they're at, but then again if they stay too long and don't have as much success their name is no longer talked about. I know I went on a rant here but I would be curious to ask these former AAC coaches if they could go back in time if they would do it again or just be happy where they're at making two to three million a year. And I can't get around the fact that most aren't successful at bigger programs. It makes no sense if they can do it at a smaller School.

Reading the old comments gave me a good laugh. It just shows that no one really had a clue. Turns out no one saw Brent Key as a viable option. Now we'll just have to wait and see. I sense the fan base is waking up. Things are already looking up based on Coach Key's OC and RB coach hires.

I had high hopes for Collins... His 404 ATL marketing seemed like it was going to work by getting local GA guys to stay at Tech, but.... it didn't happen. Hope they find someone great to turn the program around. It is beyond embarrassing living among majority UGA fans...

my life as a Mizzou and GT fan is pretty depressing

Brent Keys is off to a good start

I don’t believe the rebuild will be as daunting as most make it out to be. By most metrics I’ve seen, the talent is decent (certainly well above what the results show). Now I know some of that will be gone in the transfer portal with the coaching change, but I still think the team has the talent to go bowling. The issue has always seemed like coaching. A pattern of boneheaded penalties, questionable play-calling/scheming, poor clock management, and just undisciplined mistakes. Also, the UCF game was so freaking frustrating. The offense was actually moving the ball pretty well, but it would completely sputter the second they sniffed the redzone. They put up something like 450 yards and only had 10 points to show for it. Not the mention the 4th(!) blocked punt of the season. Anyways, glad we’re moving on the Collins. I wish it had worked out for him, but it clearly didn’t. No clue who the answer is. Having seen Tech succeed running the spread option, I like the idea of someone like Chadwell, who runs a modernized take on it. But who knows with how the CFB landscape continues to change. At this point I just hope whoever is next can get us back to being a consistent bowl team. You know it’s going poorly when you start thinking fondly of the 7-5 Gailey equilibrium days.

Collins was all bark and no bite. All he did was talk about being better everyday and he did not coach. Super happy to see him gone. Deion sanders would be a interesting coach.

Now a couple years removed, I wonder how older Tech fans compare the FGC years to the Bill Lewis years in the 90s..

At a place like tech, WF, Duke, etc. its all about the coaching fit. You are not going to attract many 4/5 stars for a variety of reasons. But you can win, its been done before!!!

Herm Edwards as a definite candidate, he did well for AZ State, but the location is just not fair. Especially for recruiting.

Tech offers fewer than 40 majors, they’re a STEM university with little in the way of communications or sports marketing “majors” to pitch to blue chip athletes who barely scrape by on academics.

i could also see them try to get bill o brian from Alabama. Honestly i think someone at Georgia Tech probably regrets leaving the SEC back in the 60's to found the Metro conference and later be independent until the ACC offered a life line as imagine the recruiting and dough you would be raking in as even Vandy still ranks up there with recruiting classes.

Going from the option to a pro offense takes years of different recruiting classes to put into effect. But defense shouldn’t change

For GT, is Frank Solich still available? Can't hurt to go after Urban Meyer.

Can you do a video on Jeff Sims? He should be better than he is. He appears to have all the physical tools necessary to be a successful college QB. I thought he would be a Vince Young type of player but it has not happened.

Tech is a used car at this point. It doesn't seem like they are not invested in athletics anymore.

Go back to the triple option. Shotgun formation this time and a 3-4, 4-2-5, or 3-3-5 defense. More athletes on the field.

Scott, as a fellow Mizzou fan, are you emotionally devastated by Saturday's horrific series of humiliating blunders?

Ask Bill Callahan how going from the option to a pro style offense goes

You can't unlose to Geoff Collins

The problem with schools like GT is recruiting. JUCO is their best route. They need an RPO style offense with mobile RPO QB. The pro style offense is very difficult to operate with 1 or 2 star OL. GT best strategy would be to concentrate on talented TE's. Run 12 personnel (2 TE offense) with RPO. Run short stop routes and drag routes to get 5/6 yards a pop. Hope for JUCO WR's.

U should.do something on miami my God what is wrong with tvd

The need Bobby Ross

He reuploaded it

DEION SANDERS

Hey guys, good news

As a life long tech, I am going to miss Coach. He played with all the heart and spirit of a tech. God bless his and hers and they travel through the god birth given freedoms that are tech

I ain’t a tech fan at all but they need to throw the bag at that costal coach

Collins failed because he was a recruiter that’s it he wasn’t given incentives. Yeah the first year I’ll give them that but the two after he could’ve gotten further than what he did but of course our athletic Director at that point was an idiot. The next choice is Deion Sanders. He played for the Braves played for the Falcons he can pull a ton of NIL money and he needs to bring his son and that 1# recruit as well. He would bring back the excitement back to Georgia Tech.

Jamey Chadwell I believe should b the guy with also being more than okay with Dell Mckgee or Monken also guys I don’t want is Charles Huff the GA State head coach or Bill the baby momma killer O’Brian

He was never going to be the savior. I work in the football industry and he is a clown with little respect. GT's AD was an idiot who let a used car salesman talk him into hiring him.

UCF the coach killer

Lol, he looks like he could be Will Sasso's brother.

Clay Helton

If our was Georgia Tech: 1. Hugh Freeze, Liberty HC 2. Curt Cignetti, JMU HC 3. Tom Herman, Former UT HC 4. Sean Lewis, Kent State HC 5. Dan Mullen, Former UF HC

Matt Rhule when he gets fire from Carolina this season is who I hope they go after.

Deion would be an apt choice. He likes to pretend he's a good coach and the trade school likes to pretend they are a Power 5 program.

Youre georgia tech, can't you get some AI coach to draw up plays, coach IBM Watson?

Leon Sandcastle will turn GA Tech around!!

They really should finish up the season then permanently close out their football program.

Hell no to Monken -- Why not an alumn like Ken Whisenhut

Gus Malzahn?

Hire Brent Key he will take us to a bowl game and win it in his first year trust me on this

I hope they get orgeron to come back into college football

BS on switching from option -- athletes can play when coached.

Coach Prime is the perfect fit.

Deion Sanders that's who needs to coach this team hands down

4:42 "they were starting to devsldodkjsielodn momentum." Bruh... 😂

It's not about who they play or whatever. So as UGA fan. This is coming from a realistic College football fan. GT has to get relevant to college football. The administrators has to take them being a power 5 school seriously. They have to let the next coach. Coach! I mean they should aleast be bowl eligible on a bad yr. They have decent talent. Idk they need a coach who is already a coach. Getting a OC or DC coach is ok. But right now I think it's bigger then that. They need to rebuild. Be consistent most importantly learn to win. Not barley beat small or other teams in other divisions. Better yet , not LOSE to them either. The next coach they get has to do a heck of alot better then Collins. Which they should, cause he sucks!

Had the pleasure to cover Geoff Collins at Temple University. A great guy, a man I’d want my son to play for, and a charmer. The guy knew how to talk to people. I thought he’d do great things at GT. Hope he lands on his feet.

Dan Mullen?

Hire Jeff Monken

Georgia Tech should hire Bobby Petrino.his offensive mind out of this world. He isn't an elite recruiter by any means, but he is pretty good in that area, and he's already got P5 coaching experience. He had Arkansas ready to legitimately compete his last few seasons there. He is questionable as far as his personal character, but his Xs and O's are top notch.

They better not touch the UGA staff.

He is a fraud for real. All sizzle and no steak.

Coach Gasbags. He has NEVER been good at coaching. He was fired at MS, FL, and GT. Temple told him to look for work elsewhere.

🎵Glory Glory Glory Georgia Glory Glory Glory Georgia Glory Glory Glory Georgia And to hell with Georgia Tech 🎵🎵

Monken. LOL LOL

Used car salesman

I dont know who would want the GT job. It's a power 5 in name only type job like Vandy in the SEC. It's worse than coaching at a decent group of 5 school.

He wasn’t the best but to be fair he wasn’t really gaven a fair chance to succeed Georgia tech I don’t know who would want to take the job if offered
