This one to me shows, how should I put it...... a less than highly motivated will to win--

Our league is one that is a very, very tough league, and we’re not always going to win. We find ourselves 0-2 for the first time in 10 years, and it’s not a comfortable spot. It’s not a spot we want to be in. But it’s not like we got shellacked and run off the field. We actually, I thought, represented very well, even though we lost.

What's scary, is the whole article sounds like the excuses he was making when people would question WM's ability to coach. Unfortunately, it's looking more and more like MB will be CMR's death knell at UGA.

Appears Coach Richt has more or less worn himself out. Especially with comments he made. Might be that Coach Richt is ready to do something else. Coaching in the SEC is tough.

One of the comments that Coach Richt made was basically . . . we are doing the same things now that we did when we were winning ten games a year. Maybe that is the reason for some of the problems. Other schools know that you are always doing the same thing, year after year.

Coach Richt, watched you do some things differently when you were at FSU. Take the reins, don't make public statements that MB will continue calling the plays. That means to me that you hear all the noise out here about MB.

You said that the players are playing their hearts out. If that is so, then just say we don't have the talent to compete in the SEC, with certain teams. WM is gone, but this program still seems to be in decline.

Myself and others understand that we have taken a different approach on the defensive side of the ball. Supporters expected mistakes and that is happening. As for the offensive side of the ball, nothing new there, same game plans, some play calling. Results not very good.

Big game against Mississippi State. They don't roll over any more. Seriously need a win in this game.

Go Dawgs! Beat Mississippi State.

I'm about 99.9999% positive I heard him say the exact same thing last year about the D and WM.

You are right, maybe I can find it.

That's is a LOSER's quote. BAMA and UF certainly don't think that way. Geez, we have become Kentucky.

Found it, it was actually from Nov, 08. Here it is, with CMR's infamous insult of the fans thrown it--

“People don’t get it. People think they know but they don’t. I mean, if people really knew football, they’d know that we’ve been blitzing; they’d know that we’ve been playing zero coverage; they’d know we’ve been playing cover one; they’d know that we’ve been playing robber (coverage); we’ve been go fire-zone with cover three behind it; fire-zones with cover two behind it. So if they really knew football they wouldn’t be saying the things they say. But they don’t.

“It’s the same basic defensive scheme that we’ve had since we got here. You know, it’s not like a kind of philosophical issue. I mean, the philosophy of our defense hasn’t really changed hardly at all in eight years. And we’ve not been in this spot in the past. So that’s not the problem.”
