Temple Football Forever 
Makes you wonder why Kraft hired Collins….,
Criteria (not in order) to evaluate a TUFB HC:
1. Conference Championship
2. First Round Draft Choice
3. NY6 Bowl Game
4. Top 25 ranking
5. College Football Gameday
6. Graduation Percentage
7. NCAA Div 1 Player of the Year
Will Carey compete with MR? Collins surely did not.
TUFB fans are yet to witness the ultimate Trifecta, Conference Championship, Bowl Game win, and Top 25 finish.
Houston and UCF are the only AAC teams to complete the Trifecta.
I’m glad you didn’t put bowl win in there because with so many players opting out of going to war with their teammates in the post-season, I’m fearing every bowl (eventually including the National Championship game a few years down the road) is going to turn into the NFL Pro Bowl–a glorified exhibition.
Now it’s no longer speculation that Collins is a first rate jerk. If he thinks this site’s been hard on him it’ll look like a walk in the park compared how GT fans react when they realize they hired a third rate coach for a first rate program. (I know that they haven’t been all that successful recently but they have been so not that long ago).
How he managed to turn a mediocre at best coaching stint into a P-5 head coaching job isa mystery. I guess in today’s world, facts and reality don’t mean anything anymore and its the narrative that controls. He surely did control the narrative and convinced people that he was woke and cool and a genius at relating to his players. I’d like to ask Sharga, Frankie Juice, and Russo what they thought of Collins especially the latter two who had to sit for several games because Collins selected qbs with lesser talent as starters.
He of course blocked TU fans from Twitter, to quote Jack Nicholson, because he can’t handle the truth. It’s going to be great reading GT boards as his team goes from bad to worse. They play Clemson and USF in their first two games and if they didn’t play the Citadel in their third game, they likely would have been winless before the TU game. Hope Clemson, USF, and TU hang a hundred on him so we can watch him and Patenfaud dissemble before our very eyes like they did against USF in 2017.
Love to see Patenfraud yelling at the Georgia Tech guys in the fourth quarter. Worth sticking around for that.
College Football fans in the ATL metro area, don’t care about Georgia Tech football, when Clemson and Georgia are 2 hours away from ATL.
Collins can walk into a Waffle House, and chance are most people won’t recognize him.
They think he’s going to lead them back to glory. Let’s hope for their sake they never schedule Kennesaw State.
No matter how we feel I’m not conviced the GT game is a gimme. No mater how sucky the coaches and coaching was (losing to Nova in particular!) they somehow managed to beat some good teams last year and, tho it should have been better, have a pretty decent season – somehow. With good talent at GT, I think, somehow, they could pull one off against TU.
Don’t disagree that GT is not a gimme game. GT has athletes on their team for sure and have been ranked higher than TU in recruiting over the last couple of years. Nevertheless, I do not think that Collins and Patenfraud can turn triple option guys into whatever that mess of an offense is that Patenfraud runs in one pre-season. As far as playing and beating good teams last season, I disagree. Houston, Navy, and USF were just okay at best. Maryland cannot be called a good team.
