Apparently he wasn't very good at GT. They called him "Sasquatch".

There was blow back about how the firing of Brian Gregory happened. He may have done a good job at Xavier but was unqualified to be at a school with major football. Interesting read attached. There is apparently great relief in Atlanta at Ga Tech.

Ga Tech AD Heading to Purdue -- VTHOKIE21020 08/09/2016 08:40AM

Good for both -- Mercury 08/09/2016 4:46PM

They need to find someone with passion for GT like Syracuse did. -- HOO86 08/09/2016 6:35PM

Doesn't look like there are any tears in Atlanta -- mrcaniac 08/09/2016 4:29PM

Frankly it was a horrible hire from the beginning boo on GT leadership -- Mercury 08/10/2016 07:32AM

Their last AD went to Clemson. -- HOO86 08/09/2016 10:49AM

BIG money talks probably. ** -- Mr. Touchdown 08/09/2016 09:44AM

This will become a common move from here on out. ** -- chuckd4vt 08/09/2016 09:48AM

GT has a small fan base and huge Rev gap -- Red Hokie 08/09/2016 10:53AM

It's a lower profile job, but I'm sure the money's LEGIT. -- chuckd4vt 08/09/2016 1:02PM

Lower profile in your very biased view which over inflates ACC value -- Colonel Jessup 08/10/2016 08:20AM

OK then. It's a lateral move at best. ** -- chuckd4vt 08/10/2016 12:44PM

I'm not sure it's a lower profile job. GT is terrible pretty much across -- reestuart 08/09/2016 3:22PM

15K higher enrollment and almost 4X more living alumni. -- Red Hokie 08/09/2016 2:13PM

Doubtful. ** -- SoCloseHokie 08/09/2016 10:01AM

Doubtful.... -- SoCloseHokie 08/09/2016 10:04AM

He does have IU to deal with in basketball though. -- corvt2000 08/10/2016 3:58PM

Purdue fans? Who knew? ** -- chuckd4vt 08/10/2016 4:17PM

He's fearful of UGA, so he goes to compete in Indiana against ND? -- chuckd4vt 08/09/2016 6:56PM

Purdue isn't a footbaall school. Outside the few years they had Drew Beeze -- corvt2000 08/10/2016 10:26PM

Re: He's fearful of UGA, so he goes to compete in Indiana against ND? -- SoCloseHokie 08/10/2016 07:54AM

IF there are ever decent recruits in Indiana, ND does well w/ them. ** -- chuckd4vt 08/10/2016 09:27AM

Re: IF there are ever decent recruits in Indiana, ND does well w/ them. -- SoCloseHokie 08/10/2016 10:59AM

8 players from Indiana -- mrcaniac 08/10/2016 12:45PM

Only 2 or 3 Indiana players ND even offers each yr. -- chuckd4vt 08/10/2016 4:33PM

We don't ever recruit Indiana too heavily -- goldendomer 08/10/2016 5:52PM

But the folks here are suggesting Purdue's a good job for an AD. -- chuckd4vt 08/10/2016 6:26PM

Another insult? You got problems man. ** -- chuckd4vt 08/11/2016 06:53AM

Re: Another insult? You got problems man. -- SoCloseHokie 08/11/2016 07:06AM

OK? GT has much more bball history & potential than Purdue. -- chuckd4vt 08/10/2016 11:40AM

Purdue is in a basketball state. I don't know, what -- corvt2000 08/10/2016 3:57PM

Re: OK? GT has much more bball history & potential than Purdue. -- SoCloseHokie 08/10/2016 12:31PM

Thanks for the insults. ** -- chuckd4vt 08/10/2016 12:45PM
