We need Benny Hill background music when talking about Geoff Collins.
Excellent summary of the disaster that was the Geoff Collins era. So many more examples of mismanagement to choose from, but you did a great job of boiling it down.
I don’t know if you’re doing it on purpose, but your Collins impression is 💯
I've been working on it lol
Lets not forget when we played NIU…it was 4 & goal…Collins went to kick the field goal when we needed a touchdown…got booed…called timeout & went for it…& of course we did not score & lost the game
Yep only time I’ve ever seen a coach let fans dictate his decision
should have been fired immediately after the NIU game
One of the things that I think was a huge blunder was essentially promising Jeff Sims that he'd be QB1 the whole time he was there. Jeff never had any competition while at Tech until Pyron came in.
Yes sir re, it seemed that Collins had his pets. and they played regardless
@@johnburns6761simms was terrible. And kept his job.
What pissed me off most about collins. And I agree with your 5. If there was a 6th. Was his total lack of seriousness. As a coach.
Yep and the first time he got pushed for the starting job, he left the nest year hahaha
Geoff Collins been real quiet since this dropped...
Lol yea I’m sure he cares what I think
Holy shit the $3 bill and max win total of 3 wins per season is too ironic😂
My Geoff Collins blunders 5 Disrespecting Paul Johnson and the players that played for Paul Johnson 4 Trying to do away with GT pregame traditions replacing band by playing rap music at full volume during game 3 Lifting weights on sidelines to intimate opponents 2 Running off Marco Coleman,Choice,and Gibbs 1 Sleeping with Stansbury 🤣🤣🤣sorry could not help myself😀😀😀
First, very good summary. I would have thrown in somewhere the goofy stuff he did with practices, the music, “parties,” etc. That being said, I’m ready to turn the page on Goof Collins. Thankfully he’s behind us. I suspect most everyone agrees, this is the most anticipatory off-season for us since the summer of 2018. While I’d love to be the TCU of this year, I’m excited because realistically we have a shot at a bowl and I feel like aside from UGAg and probably Clemson, we should have at least a fighting chance in every game. With Goof, I had gotten to where I just didn’t care about football season coming since there was no hope. And as someone who once went to 112 straight games home and away, that says a lot that I had lapsed into apathy the last couple of years.
Got real old with blocked kicks/punts but got to let go and move onward.
This is the best Wreck Talk video yet! Can we get another 5 Geoff blunders video?
that’s an amazing voice impression dude
Every press conference 😂😂😂😂 I was excited but about a month after I heard him I told my brother this guy has no clue
Collins had the worst body language in every post game presser. Never making eye contact. Looking down while he talked. Would love to hear what a body language expert would say about him.
Geoff Collins... All talk no results.
Basically, we found out after the first season that Collins wasn't a football coach. He was a clown looking for a circus!
Wreck Talk the Patenode play you showed against Clemson looked like a Geoff Collins special play.Collins had some special plays for each game .
Yep they were super effective lol
Wreck talk the Clemson game you pulled up was Geoff Collins debut as Georgia Techs coach. This was before we even had sims. I believe Tobias Oliver was the QB. That was in 2019.
Beautifully said my man. I wanted to like Geoff, but that era of Tech football from August 28, 2019 to September 24, 2022 took significant years off my life. I blamed everything for the losing, “academic standards handicap recruiting”, “we’re transitioning out of the triple option”, “we can’t compete with top 5 teams and have a tough schedule” at the end of the day 10-28 spoke for itself. It was Collins and his cronies who destroyed our program. I feel for Brent Key as he’s basically the Guinea pig of yet another rebuilding experiment but as I write this we’re 5-4 with two wins this season over ranked opponents. In my years having season tickets since 2018, this is the most excited I’ve been as a Jackets fan and the only time I’ve been optimistic since winning the TaxSlayer Bowl in 2016. It’s been a long, long time. Thank you for this video and Go Jackets. Would love to be on the show anytime, reach out and let me know.
WT: "I had to work hard to narrow this list down to just 5 things."
WT moments later: "Every press conference he ever gave. . . Every game he ever coached against Clemson. . . Every penalty and special teams blunder." 😂😂
Also, I have to defend Collins on one thing. All the off the field stuff you mentioned (press conferences, WaHo, Money Down, etc.) are things that are naturally going to become infuriating when we're losing. If Collins was going 9-3 instead of 3-9, most of us would find all of that stuff at worst corny but tolerable, and some fans would even consider it endearing.
Sad to see that Collins wasn’t able to succeed at GT but I am the athletics photographer at Temple University and he did well here. Two winning seasons and a Bowl win. He got the job at GT because he was one of the best Defensive coordinators in the country. I know for certain that he has had some major offers but is just being selective about his next moves.
I think the WaHo stuff was to help with marketing the team to a larger audience while also resonating with the Tech fanbase. The restaurant is an ‘every man’ establishment with cheap but yummy food, but it’s ceo is a Tech grad.
I knew we were in for a downward spiral at the first moneydown. Winners don’t do that gimmicky crap. It was ominous and I think alienated alumni that actually attended the games. It eventually became white noise. I still don’t see the merit. Even kids know that a true leader doesn’t cow to the prevailing wisdom of the day, ie money worship.
How have I not seen this yet…..Safe to say we are in brighter times
Jagoff Collins did not want to be here and he proved it every day!
@3:05 ELITE Collins impersonation
Geoff Collins was a natural born recruiter. That is what he should focus on. Once he got the students here at Tech he couldn't coach them to a winning season.
Love the title
This was your best video ever.
So with the back
Drop I think you need to be smoking a cigar would be great add to the show then get a cigar sponsor lol
He was fired. Escorted from building I heard. Never allowed to go back to his office. Or speak to team.
Right then he started trashing our team when he left.
just like a corporate firing - give us your keys and your company cell phone and security will take you to the front door. Leave your company car here and call an uber (at your expense) to go home. I just wish a reporter with a camera would have been at the door to publish a picture of the clown walking out of the athletic building for the final time.
@@oboeman63 I bet he had a Waffle House cup in his hand. And had head down crying.
He said high level. Every other word
“ELITE”
Not getting the ball to Jahmyr Gibbs inside the five yard line when trailing Clemson 14-6 in the last two minutes of the game.
Having Jahmyr Gibbs fair catch the free kick after the safety at the end of the 2021 game trailing 14-8. Jordan yates is a good kid, but he can’t throw it to the end zone on the final play against the Clemson d line. I’d take my chances with Gibbs legs over yate’s arm.
Yea we misused Gibbs all the time
I read today. We having new game day experience on the flats. Pre game concerts. Closing streets. What u think
I would add "yall so unprepared" comment from the Georgia player during the 2021 game. Key got the team prepared to play that week's opponent when he took over. No one knows what the previous coach was preparing the team for in practices leading up to a game. I also will submit that same coach's reaction with about 12 and half minutes to go in the 2019 game against VPI, when the Jackets were already down 45-0 to a team they had beaten three years in a row and said coach asked for some review and went back to the sideline after the refs told him to get back with his tongue wagging out like MJ or like there was something funny. Down 45-0. At home. To Virginia Tech. That instance right there should have been a clarion call of a warning on what was about to transpire.
The Narducci handshake was one of the five I picked out. Stansberry should have given Collins some type of suspension.
I knew he was a clown. When I heard he acted like that with the media. Behind the scenes
part 2? i know that there is more than 5 things lol
Wait wait wait....how do you hire a guy who only won 8 games at temple?
Agree about Patenaude. The guy was horrible. He had one good year at Costal the rest of his work was garbage.
Dude was overmatched. He had two years at temple with collins at a g5 school and that was it. 2 years. I didn’t know that until he was fired.
Wait lifting on the sidelines
Be a little boy but have a heart of a real man 💯
I don't know man, you have to do a whole podcast about a coach who's not there anymore instead of looking forward makes Tech look sad as a program
See every other video I’ve ever done.
GT still finished the season 2 and 4 with Key
I think you mean 4-4 under key. Beat Pitt, Duke, VT UNC lost to UVA, Miami, FSU, and UGA
Enough already. It's time to move on.
It's the off season man. Two vidoes this week and this was suggested. I started my channel after the Collins firing so I haven't really got to do a video to talk about this.
What video would you like so see?
@@wrecktalk Don't take me a for a hater...I love your work, and you deserve all kinds of props for filling a void. But this topic was beaten to a bloody pulp in another forum, and I think the sooner we stop harping about TFG, the better. Let's focus on the future and the positive! (FWIW, other posters clearly loved this content, so you've got that going for you!)
The Waffle House stuff.
Let's go Jackets
Paul Johnson was a 11 year horrible experiment.
Then we hired Collins who tried to be friends instead of a coach
So ,14 years of setting the program back.
Coach Key has brought in a much improved staff that has raised the bar in the recruiting department.
Now hopefully it will show up on the scoreboard with wins.
How many 3-9 seasons did Paul Johnson have with the school?
@pctotty none, but the really good player would not come and play in an offense that didn't prepare them for the NFL.
@@johnburns6761 LOL, we have never been and never will be an NFL factory. 11 win seasons and beating how many top ten teams, Who schemes at Tech win. By the way Friedgen ran the triple option as well. Google Tech Clemson 1999.
Yea I hated ACC championship and orange bowl appearances and beating Georgia in Athens.
@coloradojacket then you are a armchair fan you have no ambitions for a national championships
