Disagree respectfully that Pruitt is all that and is not the savior of this program. Nothing is going to save this program until a new HC is brought in...but that is not going to happen

Vs Pruitt/UGA-Auburn 7/vs Kirby Smart/'bama-Auburn 44

vs Pruitt/UGA-Mizzou 0/vs Kirby Smart/'bama-Mizzou 13

Kirby Smart appears to be the gold standard, so.....

I don't think I used the word "savior" anywhere. I think I and everyone on the board and NOT on the board believed that the debacle in Jax was on the whole crew, everybody, including Pruitt, including Rocker, including Mason and Swann and Floyd and including and especially and starting at the top with CMR.

My only point is that unless you know a DC out there that can throw 13 shutouts against Georgia's schedule, throwing Pruitt under the bus doesn't make any sense. I for one was glad to see fewer missed tackles, stupid penalties and opposing receivers w/no 'dawg defenders in the same zip code. Your mileage obviously varies.

Edit: And although I'm using a lot of this data to defend him, guaranteed he's not satisfied. Another reason not to throw him under the bus. imo

I agree Sadler but that doesn't mean that those DC's would still not be the five best DC's in the country.

I can only speak for myself but while I have supported and still support Pruitt, I am not saying he can overcome the stench of Mark Richt

I agree wart. I agree that Pruitt is better than grantham and a big improvement. However, we will never know just how good Pruitt, or any other DC for that matter, actually is as long as they are handcuffed by richt.

Fair enough...

Well it took 14 years but CMR finally dragged UGA down to the bottom of the Bowl picture. Thanks, now get out of the way

I completely agree with that comment. Like 100% completely, lol
