To continue hour three Sam talks all things ACC football with Ken Sugiura of the AJC. Sam starts things off by asking Ken how he’s been handling this pandemic both personally and professionally. Next, Sam asks Ken what his observations have been of Georgia Tech thus far. Ken says it’s been difficult and “different” with the pandemic, but also says Georgia Tech has done a very good job with player availability to the media. Also, Ken says the Yellow Jackets did a great thing in making their assistant coaches available. Sam then asks Ken where he thinks this team should be as far as an on the field product goes. Ken responds by saying “you’re looking for progression, how much is the question.” Ken says a season “close to .500” is a sign that things are “headed in the right direction.” Ken follows that up by saying they want to build upon the three wins from last year so 4 or 5 wins means good progress, and obviously more is great. Sam then asks about Florida State, the Yellow Jackets first week opponent, and what has happened to them during their decline. Next, Sam asks Ken about head coach Geoff Collins’ actions after the muder of George Floyd, and what he thinks it says about Geoff. Ken says that Geoff showed he really “genuinely cares about his players”, and that Georgia Tech is a part of Atlanta, and since Atlanta was hurting Georgia Tech was hurting as well. Finally, Sam asks Ken for keys to a win against Florida State. Ken says they have to have good quarterback play, and one area he really will be watching is offensive line.
