    I would bring the entire staff of LCU. You could probably get them all for what we are paying Cumbie.

    If Tech is not going to offer a competitive COA and NIL opportunities, they probably won’t get a decent coach.

    That may be one reason Holtz put forth minimum effort his last couple of years.

    Sad thing is, we were once pretty OK, but now the 3 leaders in our conference are Liberty, NMSU, and JAX State. We aren't even competing anymore and the fan base knows it. And the shell of our former conference, isn't doing much better. Without leadership, we will head back to FCS.

    Just shows how far Tech has fallen under Crummy. Jax State in its very first year in FBS, well, you know. NMSU long a 2-10 doormat gets a decent coach and does something we have never done, beat Auburn, and more than that win a frickin regular season game vs. a P5.

    We are in the cellar in the worst FBS conference in the nation. Well, tied for last with the MAC, maybe. But in the cellar nonetheless. The empty suits that is the Tech "leadership" (quote, unquote) are either simply incapable of fixing the problem and/or don't care to.

    Sit back and think for a moment of all the Tech people making big money for the shit jobs they’re doing and they’re probably not losing any sleep over it and then think about all you’ve been through over the years to do your job and provide for your family. This athletic stuff is all a bunch of over glorified BS.

    No kidding. We used to look for athletics to give us something to be proud of even if our jobs weren't always great, but now there's none of that and they demand more money than ever.

    I don't look for any changes until Henderson does take over. And in addition to Cumbie, Woods should be fired for putting together such a contract!
    I also fear that this hole is so deep it'll be hard to find someone willing to come clean it up.

    Yeah.

    Unless money people want him gone, Cumbie is here for another year.

    My hope is after the bottom falls out next year (and it will), Cumbie will take his AD with him.

    We know we can’t afford to fire Cumbie, but he’s got to clean house with the staff

    Re: Cumbie has to go

    Now that Tech is a whoaful 6-18 under Cumbie and deep in a world of shit I just had to dig up the press conference from his introduction as Tech head coach to see again what was said. To begin with Guice speaking shakily is a big clue that he’s really not a leader and not honest either as he lays out a heaping pile of make believe on the behalf of AD Wood’s early accomplishments. After that Guice actually calls Cumbie, Crumbie. It’s funny how prophetic he was. There’s also the admission of how hurriedly they hired Crumbie which as it turns out is very telling of the mistake they made. Unfortunately according to Guice the “they” included Steve Davison. Maybe if we’re all really lucky Steve will end this disaster and quickly put Tech on a new course. If not for him this Tech / Cumbie fiasco is going to be a long and drawn out gruesome bloodletting. As for Wood’s opening remarks regarding Guice, I did enjoy the half ass applause offered for his phony compliments of Guice. As bad as it was Wood did clap into the microphone to overpower everyone else’s half claps. Fast forward through all the rest of Wood blowing smoke to Cumbie’s part where he first showed his lacking communication skills. He truly does have difficulty getting a message across which I can’t help but think carries over into his various team meetings. How ironic for Cumbie to praise Holtz and say he wanted to continue what he started. Well he’s done exactly that by adding his two 3-9 seasons to Holtz’s final 3-9 year. I guess he pretty much cursed himself saying that. Eventually at about the 29:30 mark Cumbie lets the cat out of the bag about the players being the ones who bring the energy to the team, so I guess that means the coaches are more so along for the ride. I found it very interesting to see the over emphasized hype versus where we are now. Watch and reflect how things were set up and presented back then to where we are now…
