It takes a big man to offer Paul Johnson advice.

Give Jeff Schultz credit where credit is due – he’s now kibitzing about Paul Johnson’s next options at defensive coordinator.  Although he’s hedging his bets about the process (which, as we all know, is more important than the hire, at least in Athens):

One important factor in this search is the Jackets have significant budget constraints, unlike Georgia, and therefore can’t pay a lot for an assistant football coach. Groh is only a candidate because he’s already drawing $4.33 million from Virginia over the next two seasons, and therefore will not demand a high salary. But if he says no, the stature of candidates likely drops…

Oh well, at least it’s a start.

    B-b-b-b-b-but…Tech’s AD was on 790AM’s Steak and Whoever The Other Tool Is a month ago and said that Tech’s finances were *great* from the sale of Tech t-shirts EVERYWHERE in Atlanta! And they didn’t question him on it! Would he lie to me?

    I was just peeking ahead at next year’s schedule. Besides recruiting, can someone explain any rush to hire a DC???

    We should be able to road grade opponents through October.

    Schedule sets us up extremely well for the next two years. Not so much for UT and UF.
