GT ISP Deal

Wonderful, 790 the Zone is back for more GT sports action... Personally, I only really care for the 2 Live Stews 'cause they'll rep GT pretty good on the show. I know a lot of GT fans don't care for them but I think Ryan Stewart really is one of the best critics/fans of GT sports on the radio.

Personally, I've met with D-Rad a few times and I've always enjoyed his enthusiasm and business approach to our athletic department. I feel like everything in the GTAA has a shine to it that it didn't have under Braine. There's a completely different approach - a hand's on approach - to every aspect of athletics and it's appreciated by this GT fan.

Concerning the media deal, I guess we're doing the best we can with what we got, right? I'd like to assume there's a reason ISP has 62 other schools under its umbrella. I normally would've complained about the lack of GT radio coverage in SC but I've got the Sirius now so that issue is resolved.

Any thoughts on 790 the Bone? Do you hate/love the 2 Live Stews? How 'bout David Pollack on our flagship?

CPJ and GT reach contract extension agreement

Yesterday afternoon, Paul Johnson and Georgia Tech came to a contract extension agreement. Details won't be announced until the end of this week unfortunately. When Johnson first signed on at the flats, his contract was 7 years, $1.6 million per year. That put him right in the middle of the ACC for coaching salaries.

Ladies and gentleman, we sure as hell are not in the middle of the ACC. Currently, Bobby Bowden, Frank Beamer, Butch Davis, Al "Chan Gailey pt. 2" Groh, and Ralph Friedgen all make more than CPJ. I expect the extension to be right around the Butch Davis $2.1 million a year salary.

So, while we wait on the official announcement and numbers, let's revel in some of the images of our beloved coach from this past year:

The Beginning.

Always givin' the Refs a hard time.

EXPECTING PERFECTION FOREVER AND ALWAYS.

What are your thoughts on a contract extension? Is 1 year to soon? Does CPJ deserve it?
