G.T.'s coach Paul Johnson had a monumental stint at Navy prior to coming to the Engineers. Navy was 1-20 in the two years prior to Johnson's arrival(does anyone remember how bad those Navy teams really were). After an initial 2-10 season under Johnson, went 43-20 with the Middies, and went to 5CONSECUTIVE BOWL GAMES! Are you kidding me? From a gambler's standpoint, Johnson went an incredible 41-27 ATS. Fast forward to his present stint with G.T., and it seems Coach Johnson has barely skipped a beat. He's now 20-7 with the Yellow Jackets, and(gulp) 16-8 vs. the spread, and his team won the ACC last year. And, this year?
Well, he lost his #1 Rb in Jonathan Dwyer, but, everyone else returns, including QB Nesbitt, so don't be surprised if G.T. runs the ball even better than last year.
On defense, again G.T. loses another outstanding player in DE Morgan who had 12.5 sacks. But, the big story on D, is the return of 7.5 starters, the move to a 3-4 defense, and one of the best hires, in my opinion of the off-season: former Virginia head coach Al Groh is now the Yellow Jacket defensive coordinator! Look for another great year from one of my favorite coaches, Paul Johnson.
Question: Who do you think is college football's best coach? Be prepared to defend your choice.

For me the best soccer player in the last couple of decades is Ronaldo(the phenomenon), he was incredible with a ball.
