What about leaving other HBCU'S behind?

Maybe SEC. Jackson is a much larger city than Starkville.

Our head coach currently makes 1 million dollars guaranteed more. You dont have B12 money yet buddy. I think Malzahn would come to Tech if he were offered a million more a year guaranteed. Would probably be more though....

Both UH and Cincy pay their HC's more than GT does, so I don't think a lack of Big 12 money we'll prevent UCF from doing the same if they choose to.

Indeed, there’s three key things at play here:

1. GT’s AD is heavily in debt, and a key factor in not firing Collins this year is that they simply couldn’t afford it.

2. UCF could pay more, and Gus is not particularly money motivated given the $30m or so Auburn paid him.

3. Gus isn’t going to leave for an inferior program. This is going to be hard for a lot of mid-level P5s to accept, but now that UCF is a P5, we are a superior program with equal or better resources (however you define those) to most of them. It’s going to be like back in the 80s with old, successful programs feeling themselves continually superior to nobodies like FSU and Miami. I’m sure WVU fans were beside themselves wondering why Bowden would leave for a mediocre program that had accomplished nothing in its short history like FSU. Just like the Iowa State fans convinced that Gus is personally paying the 4* RB we flipped from then the other day. Things are changing with these moves up.

yes

Not necessarily. Tashard Choice will be available. Urban Renewal, now with twice the baggage, is also available and comes with anti-UGAg golden credentials and multiple pre-existing connections to GT FB.

Great school. Loved our game at bobby Dodd this year and hope y'all invite us back. I'm not trying to hate on tech.

I'll hate on Tech!!! Can't stand the 'Jackets anyway.

Go Dawgs!! (GT fans can't stand me anyway )

As it should be and we will toast to the puppies getting bounced out of the playoffs again whether it is to Bama again, Michigan, or even Cincinnati. Losing to Michigan would help to bring the records closer to unity with what every dwags fans desires... a repeat of the Mark Richt Era.

Mark Richt was 61-17 at this point. Kirby is 64-15...

And I will toast once again to the bees having an absolutely bad year in their biggest sport. . Enjoy the win in basketball. Pastner no doubt has the B1G in his sights

Josh Pastner is an American success story of how to fail upwards

Deion would be crazy to go to program like Georgia Tech.

He can do much better.

It feels really weird to hear someone use records that good to dunk on someone. Also, pretty similar to Bohannon at Kennesaw. 62–17.

Either way, atleast tech aren't cowards. UGA is the only FBS in Georgia that still hasn't scheduled us. Cause they're scared! They don't want the most beautiful offense in football to show up in Athens and embarrass them.

Basketball or football?? Not really scared of anything really. As for football, we scheduled too far out of and the Sooners & the 'Horns aren't making things any easier. Couldn't tell you what things look like in hoops.

I hope he stays at Jackson State, takes them to FBS and makes a NY6 game. It's just to bad he's not at a Grambling/Southern/Howard HBCU that already has some built in cache.

At least JState has a FBS level stadium in place, unlike Howard

In seating capacity only... Mississippi Memorial is absolutely nothing special.

Nope.

Deion didn't just burn his bridges at FSU, he nuked them.

Once the embarrassment subsides, is completely legally flipping a commit from FSU a reason for FSU to turn on him? If he was coaching at Ole Miss should he not try and recruit kids that FSU is recruiting?

Wins in basketball, wins. Plural. Don't forget about your undefeated and ranked women's team being made unranked and very defeated on their home court.

And while I have much go grouse about with the GT football, the best thing that happened this offseason was your DC and lead recruiter moved 3 timezones away. It will be VERY interesting to see the change without him. I suspect you'll miss him as much as GT missed Friedgen.

Maybe Jackson state should rebrand as Mississippi tech and join the CUSA. Deion to USF might be more realistic

Several administrations at Georgia Tech have been crazy. Tech wins a natty in '90 and they managed to tank a historic college program over the last 30 years and do it in a state which is stinking rich in the talent coming out of high school. So, I'd say anything is possible.

Three things, GTS:

1.) I only follow UGA football and men's basketball. I don't really follow UGA women's hoops, although it does stink that our undefeated and ranked women's team lost to you guys. In addition, I have had a female Georgia Tech student flirt with me before. I like to keep my options open.
If I get hitched (again) to a female Tech graduate/former student, I will ask for a Buzz groom cake so I can eat him!! Yum!!! I'm sure she wouldn't mind, in fact I saw a post online about a female Dawg giving a male Tech graduate a Hairy the Dawg groom cake , so I will take a Buzz groom cake from a female Tech graduate. (My past marriage to a female Alabama fan didn't work out very well though)

2. I truly miss all former UGA players and coaches, but getting to live and coach football in the state of Oregon is an opportunity that I would take immediately myself. The state of Oregon has a lot of natural beauty, and I can see why someone would prefer it to the state of Georgia. Plus, unless the coordinator/assistant coach is leaning towards retirement, it only makes sense that they would want to move up. Last, but not certainly not least, the Oregon Ducks are my second favorite team, so, hey!! I still win!!!

3. I only follow one women's basketball program, the University of Montevallo Falcons because I graduated from the University of Montevallo.
