If memory serves me right - alot of those assistants were former Tech players. Included I believe was Pat Collins who was passed over as HC at Tech went to Northeast. Dawnpix your memory is probably better than mine on this I am sure.

From the lettermen list:

Mickey Slaughter -- 1959-62
Pat Collins -- 1960-62
Wallace Martin -- 1961-62
E.J. Lewis --
Pat Patterson -- 1953-56

Two folks who are way more unethical than Mike White.

Both were justified in believing that their loyalty to Tech was not honored by Tech. I don't have to agree, but I understand.

Mike White picked up a kid that we would have lost anyway, but his character is in question because it went against what many of us believed about him. The "everybody does it" thing didn't make it right.

I always thought Mickey Slaughter should have been named the Head Football Coach
after Maxie left!

Many did, but apparently he did not want the job.

That would be correct
