On my impressions of Georgia Tech since the coaching change:
“They didn’t make that many mistakes. They were shooting themselves in the leg. They blocked some kicks. Things calmed down a bit. They’re simplifying things. I I think they have good athleticism on both sides of the ball, I think. Quarterback, if he’s healthy, he’s certainly hard to defend. He throws the ball fast. I think it’s a good football team.They have a good brand defense.I know what [Georgia Tech’s defensive coordinator] Defensive, man under him. I know the defensive staff very well. I think they’re good coaches and a reflection of how they’re playing right now.it is important to Brent [Key], head coach, it’s his alma mater. Georgia Tech means a lot to him.
