You say that Georgia Tech has been average at best since Paul Johnson took over
but I would disagree.
In the 9 years that Johnson has been head coach, he has a 69-48 record (.590 PCT), and has won 10+ games twice, including 3 division championships and 1 conference title (that was later vacated). While that may not be the same level of success of a team like Alabama or Ohio St., for Georgia Tech it is about as good as can be expected. Georgia Tech has had 9 coaches since 1968, none have won more games then Johnson and the only one with a higher winning percentage is George O'Leary. In fact for comparison sake, here's how they lay out:
Paul Johnson:
69-48 (.590)
10+ wins in a season: 2
Conference titles: 1 (Vacated)
Division titles: 3
George O'Leary:
53-30 (.639)
10+ wins in a season: 1
Conference Titles: 1
All others since 1968:
186-186-8 (.500)
10+ wins in a season: 1
Conference titles: 1
Outside of O'Leary, you have to go all the way back to Bobby Dodd in the 50's and 60's to find a coach at GT that has had as much success as Johnson has.

I think Ty's offense will work great once the O-Line recruiting kicks in and he has the personnel to run it.

the problem is that the pro style isn't like that. the pro style says, "we're better than you and we're going to prove
