Technical Tidbits 4/28: Collins, Recruiting, And Other Tech News

This quote from the article confirms it: “‘One day, I’m going to be the head coach at Georgia Tech.’ I’m formulating this vision of what this program is supposed to be, how it’s supposed to look, how it’s supposed to recruit to this great city and great academic environment.” That statement says a lot. I think if I were ever tasked with hiring a college football coach, then ensuring they have such a vision would likely be the key to finding the right person for the job. The way Collins and his staff have been recruiting talent to Tech, especially in the complex times brought on by the COVID-19 outbreak, speaks volumes to this vision and what it’s doing for Tech’s football program.
