What's this?

Good for both


Ga tech job very tough in the business ---they have some success with contributions but not enough- they have a hard time getting folks to attend sporting events - and challenge of competition for the sports dollar in a high urban city - at the same time they have limited resources for extended marketing in the largest city in the south - also the ad was not a good pick - not real personal- didn't help the marketing effort - he's a good pick for Purdue another great engineering school and under performing in atletics including contributions -

At ga tech appears they have perception problem having 2 ad's leaving quickly in their tenure -I wonder if the university leadership really want to invest in athletics or just ride on the acc subsidy -

Appears Paul Johnson on a warm seat and he's not really happy with adminstration leadership and commitment to the program -

Lots of drama

  Doesn't look like there are any tears in Atlanta -- mrcaniac 08/09/2016 4:29PM
  Apparently he wasn't very good at GT. They called him "Sasquatch". -- HOO86 08/09/2016 3:51PM
  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

  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

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

  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

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