On Gimmicks

Black helmets and pants made us look like a high school team out there. Actually, I take that back. The comparison with a high school team had nothing to do with what the Dawgs were wearing...

Anyhoo, I say we make this team wear those God-awful colors until they earn the right to wear read and black again. Another gimmick, and we played like clowns. Great. So keep on with the smoke and mirrors, pretending this is a Georgia football team, all the while doing everything BUT play good football. Next week, how about everybody dye their hair red in honor of Joe Cox's contributions to the Georgia legacy? Then, when we run across a TT fan, we throw them a small souvenir football as an exclamation point. Better still, let's retire the #14 Jersey...out of embarassment. How about we wear ALL WHITE next year as a sign of surrender? Gimmicks? You need Gimmicks, Mr. Richt? How about something really outrageous, like the gimmick of a real coaching staff. Let's try that gimmick before we mess with the red and black.

This pretty well sums it up for me.

I with you guys, said the same thing on another post. Of course some on this site are blasting us for telling the truth. I guess they are not seeing the same team we all are. Oh by the way CMR on his post game aid the D played good ball again in was the turnovers that put the D in a bad spot. CMR will never admit CWM to terrible and has no clue how to coach. I can bet you we loose every game and he'll still make no changes.

I get so sick of hearing that excuse about turnovers putting the defense in a bind. Yes, they hurt, but two points--
1-just because the D is put in a tough spot doesn't mean they have to roll over and play dead. I've seen good defenses hold the team to a FG, stop them, or Heaven forbid actually create a turnover to stop the drive, which brings me to point #2--sometimes defenses create turnovers and maybe the offense wouldn't always be deep in their own territory to \"screw\" the D with turnovers.

The SMART era CONTINUES!!!!!!

You are supposed to ignore the man behind the curtain. You are supposed to ignore all the miserable performances by this defense this season. You are supposed to pretend that Willie Martinez is anything other than the worst DC is college football, hell, football period. We are -14 in turnovers. You are supposed to ignore that this means the defense forces nothing from our opponents. All is well with the defense. If you don't believe it, just ask CMR. Nothing to worry about. Give him another 20 years or so and CWM might actually put together a fairly decent defensive unit.
