Several of the 14 high school players who have committed to Georgia Tech said Monday night they did not know if they will stick with the Yellow Jackets or not after coach Chan Gailey's firing. Like Techs fan base, they're in a wait-and-see mode, interested in which assistant coaches are retained, and who will be hired as the next head coach. Their first source for inside information in the first 12 hours after Gailey's firing was athletics director Dan Radakovich, who called them.

He was a decent coach.. just not good enough against my dawgs!

Gailey really was not that bad. It's just if you have a terrible record against your rival you get fired.

Nutt might not be a bad choice for GA. Tech.

That's it. I'm transferring to the next best public university in Georgia: Gainsville State.

Nutt just went to Ole Miss today..why, who knows?

Tenuta should get the chance ... maintain the DEF that has served Tech well of late. Maybe even bring Roof back as DC ... one rumor has Terry Bowden ... ??? another bowden in the ACC? Glenn Mason? I like the current staff + Roof scenario.

TENUTA ... it's his time. His DEF has become a staple at Tech since Roof left for Duke. I suggest keeping the staff in tact and bring Roof back as DC under Tenuta's direction. Tenuta's fire and stability for the recruits can maintain the talent being brought to The Flats. Tenuta is likely to let the reigns go on the OC as well. We have wasted a LOT of talent in recent years.

I wonder why Matt Braman isn't playing more. My son played with Matt in pee wee football, and he was an animal back then, in the 4th grade. He was an all state FB and LB in Colorado, but I never see the guy play. C'mon Tenuta, play him, it's the only reason why I watch GT.

Les Miles! J/k, Georgia Tech could never get him.

Who cares about Tech!! Them Dogs gave it to em goood. Read about Miami and there thug mentality comments, you should have been at the game Sat in ATL talk about some thugs. They put GA emblems in the toilets so Tech fans could still see RED AND BLACK baby. 7 yrs in row. And after the game tech fans were playing Rocky Top from another conference, I guess they have nothing else to Cheer about.
