Surprise, Hewitt is staying put in Atlanta

Much to my surprise, Paul Hewitt has decided to stay put at Georgia Tech.   Here’s a sampling of reaction from Yellow Jacket nation, one message board contained the following:

NYJacket:  Looks like Dave Braine really did create a contract that is too lucrative to walk away from.  Oh well, at least we have baseball and football before we get to watch Hewitt’s coaching genius again.

rum creek:  Bad day for GT. We are stuck with PH. This program is in deep do-do. Let’s hope the football team can offset the revenue to be loss with BB.

Jeffgt00:  Wow… Hewitt seems really serious about chasing that most career ACC losses record, doesn’t he?

Another Tech board contained these musings of the disgruntled:

LLTW:  If I’m ever walking down the streets of Atlanta, and I see this guy, I might go apes*** crazy and do something stupid. I hate him more than any other coach in the world now.

PerfectOption:  Can Hewitt get an indefinite furlough? He is employed by the state…

I haven’t seen a nerdy fan base this upset since, well, since last night, when Cornell got blasted by Kentucky.
