A snippet from SI/ESPN:
"Ever since Georgia Tech head coach Brent Key made the decision to hire Buster Faulkner as the new offensive coordinator for the Yellow Jackets, Georgia Tech has been one of the most dynamic offenses in the league. The run game and offensive line play have been fantastic, and Faulkner has gotten the most out of quarterback Haynes King. Georgia Tech looks like it has a star in the making with redshirt freshman Aaron Philo. His work at Georgia Tech has made him a national name, and in a recent ranking on ESPN of college football's next big-time college coaches, analyst Adam Rittenberg made sure to mention Faulkner:
'His innovative system, especially with the run scheme, has helped Georgia Tech to several marquee wins under coach Brent Key. Faulkner, 43, coached Stetson Bennett as Georgia's quarterbacks coach when the team won two national titles. He also has made stops at Southern Miss, Arkansas State, and Middle Tennessee. Faulkner drew interest from Southern Miss before Charles Huff became available, and should be a candidate for any Group of 5 job in the South or Southeast. He also could move to a higher-profile coordinator gig.' "
Higher profile? That really bothered me when I read that bit.
