Deja Vu'

Well, CMR also has alot more competetion than they did. He has SS, NS, UM, and BP and more now in the SEC, it is alot tougher now than then in the SEC. I am not making excuses for him I hate to lose as much or more than yall dont get me wrong. But I also have to look at everything. We have the best coaches in football right here, its not easy these days. And good coaches are hard to find. Alot of them today are here today gone tomorrow just like players who want to jump to the NFL soon as they can. I havent given up on CMR yet. Just my opinon I still think he has better days to come. They just arent coming as fast as we want. I dont think we are that far away as to scrap the whole thing here with him then gamble on an unknow which will take even longer. I mean look how short of time some have gave CTG. Bringing in a new HC with a new System will take yrs a lot longer than the 3 games CTG has had.

yankeedawg1, your stock just keeps rising. Don't mean to be mushy, you are what this board is about in my opinion. Would venture to say that NC_Dawg would agree.

There are some land mines ahead, beginning with Saturday night in Mississippi and looking at the remainder of the schedule, not pretty.

There is a ray of hope here, if these young men get on board, totally on board.

Not wrecking cars and missing football blocks. If you can run a car into another automobile, should be able to block and protect your QB, just called hitting something or someone. Disgusting on two total misses I saw WE make against Arkansas. Totally not impressed with what this young back is bringing to UGA football. Maybe he corrects it, should, damn good school for a damn good education. If you are afraid, say you are afraid. I am not impressed with his actions at school or on the football field.

There is no way that Coach Grantham will not change the face of UGA's defensive football team. You are not given the title of Defensive Coordinator at Cleveland if someone up the ladder does not think you are capable. This is not picking straws. Cleveland Browns have been going down hill since Jim Brown and before him Otto Graham hung up their cleats. That is/was a football franchise that had no direction. Will come back to that point.

Jerry Jones might be the biggest showman since Barnum & Bailey cruised the continent. Like him or not, you are not going to work for him if he thinks you don't have the "stuff". Dallas is losing right now, but I guarantee you this . . . it is not because of the defensive line.

Sorry to say, but two of Coach Richt's selections, selections that are/were right next to the head coach, speak for themselves. His choices in those areas remind me a lot of the current Vice President that we have in Washington. Another poor choice for the spot. My opinion folks.

yankeedawg1, there are a lot of us that are not ready to bail . . . just yet, but that slippery slope is getting a lot closer.

Coach Richt has a defensive staff that I think equals any in the SEC. We may not have all of the players needed to post 10 victories, but we have enough young talent to get this thing corrected. Correcting this "thingy" falls solely on Coach Richt's shoulders. I don't think that he fears that, I think that as averagedawg said, maybe he should be a leader in the FCA. That is a beautiful thing, not a shot at the FCA. I felt good when the athletes would meet in the middle of the field after kicking each others butts and hold hands and show respect to our Maker. Don't know if they still do that, if not . . . . ACLU WINS AGAIN.

One last thing. sadlerdawg made one of the brightest remarks concerning UGA football, this year's football team that I have seen. GO TO THE SPREAD. Don't waste AM's or other players talents trying to mold them into something that they are not. That is called COACHING.

Hard to stop when I start, as you know. Nice to have another "Grasshopper" on board that is 66 or better and not one of those 16 years olds that invaded the board the last couple of weeks.

I would like to point out that a few years ago folks were SCREAMING for CMR to turn over the offense to an OC because he was calling all the plays. Folks yelled about the poor offensive performance and his duties as HC. Well folks got what they wanted and now they are screaming for him to take the offense back now, and can CMB.

I'd also like to point out that Coach Dooley was not a contender every year for the SEC Championship, or was Donnan, or Goff, or Butts. I'd like to point out that every year we have great expectations and would like to win them all. Reality is that its not gonna happen so get used to it. This year we have different coaches on defense and different schemes that these kids are trying to perfect. As previously pointed out by several here that we may not have the personnel (at this time) to maximise the strengths of the new schemes. Coupled with that our Ol is not being as dominating as it can be, new QB who is playing his heart out and learning (just like Stafford did, and getting better each week) and running backs that should be better.

That said, if your expectations at the beginning of the year were a SEC championship or a MNC we won't quite be ther this year, sorry. I have faith that we are gonna correct these things in time but until then, your "bragging" rights might have to suffer a bit so you might just have to learn a little humility this year. UGA has a long a proud tradition that will get us through this, support your team win lose or draw.

I would have loved to have been the safety on the last play of the Arky game, dang I could have lit that guy up! ala Greg or Thomas, what an opportunity, as soon as he cleared the corner the safety should have been at full speed taking an inside out and planted his face mask in that guys chest just under the shoulder pads. oops, sorry too old for that now, dang old age stinks! I can still dream though.

Hang in there guys, as always GO DAWGS, GATA!

I appreciate your opinion, oledawg.
However, every year is just more excuses.
I am sick of excuses.

Yall once again , I dont think we have had a better coach here at UGA not many better ever in the SEC IMO Check winning % of other great coaches they all had down times. Thats LIfe it aint all rosey all the time. I bet Fla state was sorry he left. we would have had a NC had they not let BVG go. I think we have learned from that mistake. and trying to get back to that. MY biggest complaints as yall know is I felt we came out flat the O line and yes the D still has WM in them but give it some more time. All you can go by is by what someone has done and if they care or not. CMR has won championships coached heisman winners yes he isnt perfect who is. All Im saying is hang in there we will be back the team is fighting now. and we are young in some key places. WE had a QB and RB leave us high and dry last yr along with WM and that hurt. But we have CTG and a young QB this yr and our best player is a butt head who is going to leave us high and dry like the others. Other programs have had there best players stick with them until there senior yr seems like our school always gets um to the NFL early which does hurt us. My biggest shock this yr coming out flat against SC Bad play calling and the Oline and mis tackles. But we can correct these things. GO DAWGSSSS!! just IMO I respect and love to hear everyones take.

Understand, no problem, I just wish DJ hadn't twisted his knee in the arky game, wonder what that would have resulted in if he hadn't.
