I'll stick up for Coach Richt

wlayton, "The Bull" as BJ was known, picked Gruden's West Coast Offense up in training camp. That is almost impossible. He is bright, tough, knows how to lead, had the respect of not only the offensive side of the ball, the defense loved him. BJ has been to the top, did that with a coach that understood offense. He has the ability to pass that knowledge along. Would be incredible for UGA. Richt needs to pick up the phone.

I’m not sure that he can hire him because of UGA’s nepotism policy. See Jim Harrick, and his son.

wlayton, not sure either, probably would not happpen anyway, but would like to read something official on UGA and nepotism.

Did some digging, here is what I came up with.

8.2.3 Employment of Relatives
For the purpose of this policy, relatives are defined as husbands and wives, parents and children, brothers, sisters, and any in-laws of any of the foregoing (BoR Minutes, February 14, 1973, p. 312).

The basic criteria for the appointment and promotion of USG employees shall be appropriate qualifications and performance as set forth in the policies of the Board of Regents. Relationship by a family or marriage shall constitute neither an advantage nor a disadvantage.

No individual shall be employed in a department or unit that will result in the existence of a subordinate-superior relationship between such individual and any relative of such individual through any line of authority. As used herein, “line of authority” shall mean authority extending vertically through one or more organizational levels of supervision or management (BoR Minutes, 1989-90, p. 250).

This standard does not apply to the temporary or part-time employment of children under age 25, nor to any individual employed as of February 14, 1990, at any institution where a relative of such individual then holds a superior position at least one level of supervision removed from such individual in any line of authority. Exceptions may be approved by the Board of Regents upon recommendation of the Chancellor as being clearly in the best interest of the institution and the USG.

Hmmmm. Brad Johnson. very interesting. According to what wlayton gave us, the Board of regents can allow this, if I am reading it correctly.
