After Johnson commits to GT, what are the odds that things move quickly for us and we have a new coach by the end of the day today?

But this much is clear, according to one person who talked to the AJC. Johnson will either stay at Navy or he will become the next coach at Georgia Tech to replace Chan Gailey.

I hate this for you guys. I was hoping he'd end up at SMU.

Great place to go if you want to get fired for going to 6 straight bowls. Good luck with that.

Gents, I hate to say it but I believe we were the stalking horse that got him a better deal at GT. Steve O deserves credit for playing with the big boys.

Now let's go get our coach and put GT on our 2009/2010 schedule and go kick his [deleted]

As usual, anything that can go wrong with SMU football will go wrong.

NOW is the time to snatch up some of the top shelf disgraced coaches available. Enough snobby moralism.
