More GT Stuff

This from the Sporting News' Matt Hayes:

On the outside

Georgia Tech: You laugh at the funky flexbone offense, but understand this: No coach wants to game-plan for it. It's a logistical nightmare. 'Jackets are three key turnovers away (vs. Virginia Tech) from being unbeaten.

Also, Larry Hartstein tells us what we learned about GT Saturday.

One thing is for sure-Paul Johnson just simply outsmarts every defensive coordinator that tries to stop his offense.

--------------------------------------------------

Until Nebraska fans, administrators, boosters and everyone else starts listening to what I'm saying, the Husker program is going to continue to be mired in mediocrity. Again, to reiterate my point from a week ago, please start the search for a new offensive coordinator immediately and start recruiting accordingly. It was a terrible miscalculation to keep Shawn Watson and the leftovers of this stupid Callahan offense. Its pure garbage and doesn't belong at Nebraska.

Please run the damn flexbone offense that Paul Johnson runs and scares the crap out of teams with. Go reclaim the Husker identity. Yeah, you didn't hire PJ and yeah we're going to be kicking ourselves for a long time. You have a 2nd opportunity-hire his offensive coordinator. Pay him whatever it takes. Go to this site and find a few QBs that can run the flexbone. And watch the success of this program get reclaimed. Time is ticking.

I, for one, am glad no one at Nebraska is paying attention to Paul Johnson.

Of course, I'm a Ga Tech fan.

And actually, you can't just hire his OC - Paul acts as his own OC, calls all his own plays. Evil Genius and all that.

You could go hire Navy's new coach... A long-time assistant to Paul Johnson, he's running the same offense.

I'd like to see the Huskers do well, but I gotta tell you, it's not just the system, it's the coach. Just ask Auburn.

Too bad you didn't hold on to Solich, eh? All he did was win ten games and play for the Big XII every year.
