Georgia tech is looking for their new head coach.

Freezus would be my first call. Doubt he'd take it.

Not surprising. They were ranked in the bottom 5 of fbs teams. They were just plain terrible

And they are $12 million in the red. Tech won't be able to hire a name. Ga State, Ga Southern, Kennesaw and Valdosta are all better run than Tech.

And the hot name for that job is Deion Sanders .
If I?m them , I?d offer Jeff Lebby .

Wonder how many times they and Tulane have regretted leaving the SEC, (and don't forget Sewanee). Read an article about GT leaving and they wanted some type signing limits as bama (my have times have not changed in some ways), would sign about 100 of the best players leaving slim pickings for them and others. The vote for a rule change vote was a tie, and bama broke the tie with their vote to to keep the status quo. I don't know why Tulane left.

Interesting read. Apparently they left in part because they felt like they were too good to play us and Ole Miss. And then when they tried to come back in both Mississippi schools voted no.

IF Mullen wants to get back into coaching, that's a very logical place for him to go. He'd win games there with little pressure, and being the, what, 10th most popular sports team in town would give him and his family a less stressful life.

Do they have enough depth to run the 1A/1B defense?* They were exposed by Tulsa that they can't stop the run again this year.

I bet Atlanta has a bunch of Targets (some even stores instead of people.)**** Not sure Dan's ego would let him go to a program this pitiful.

Isn't Georgia Tech more of an "academic" type school like a step below Vandy and Tulane?

They're definitely academic ... pretty good engineering school also... I'm not sure I would rank them below Vandy or Tulane
OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

It's a very good public school, but its USNWR ranking (and yes those are very questionable) is #44, putting it just below Wisconsin, Texas, and Illinois, and just above Georgia and Ohio State. So there's no academic reason that should be holding it back from having a good football program, just a lack of a real fanbase.

Tech's lack of a fanbase is something they did to themselves. Both from a sports perspective and from a student body perspective. Leaving the SEC was all about Dodd's vanity - but being a bad independent team in the 1970's, and bad ACC team through most of the 1980s destroyed any chance at Gen X being fans. Especially with Vince and Erk down the road in Athens having songs written about the Junkyard Dawgs, winning SEC titles and a Natty. From an academic standpoint, Tech became an international school.
In 1979, 12,742 students were enrolled at GT. 7,130 from Georgia; 4,726 from other states, and 886 from outside the US. Last year they had 43,844 students (with only 17,447 of those undergrads). 14,226 students were from Ga; 17,942 from other states; and 11,676 from other countries. I get that they are an engineering/research oriented institute - and that's fine. But, you can't be shocked when you have created an alumni base over the past 40 years that has no interest in sports ball, going to see sports ball, or giving money for sports ball.
"After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""
