Just another gimmick, or getting the message?

Curious what everyone thinks--form ajc.com:

•The second change will come just before the start of Saturday’s game against Tennessee in Sanford Stadium. A caller on Richt’s radio show, “Jill in Hoschton,” told the coach that she’d love to see him lead the team out on to the field “clapping and high-fiving our players like [Alabama coach Nick] Saban does.” She said she’s never seen Richt do that in 10 years.
Richt promised to follow the caller’s suggestion.

“The reason I’ve been the last one to go is I want the players to be able to have their moment hitting that field,” Richt said. “But you make a good point, and here’s what I’m going to do, Jill. I’m going to lead the pack coming out of that tunnel, OK? Now, I hope I don’t pull a hamstring and I hope they don’t run me over.

“But I think it’s a good suggestion. So just look for Coach Richt to lead the pack.”

sadlerdawg, Richt is feeling the heat. He has said that he wants to remain in Athens. Do the right things and he could possibly have his wish come true.

Not much for gimmicks, like well schooled athletes doing what they do best.

As you mentioned in another thread, it is not just the 1-4 record, it is what's behind the 1-4 and how long will it last. Meaning not this year alone, what about the one or two years down the road that some want to dole out.

Game between the Hedges against UT will be interesting to watch. If . . . if Tennessee comes to our house and beats us this weekend, with all of the turmoil that has surrounded UT, what does that say about coaching . . . . . just asking.

CMR has proven the propensity to yield to smoke and mirrors. However, lady luck seems to smile, when the idea ISN'T his....

I personally love not only the callers suggestion, but the fact that CMR will carry forward. It shows that perhaps his ear is turning to hear more than usualy lip service that has helped to create this chaotic nightmare....

Call me a fool, or perhaps I'm just close to making a permanent reservation here at the Puzzle Palace....But I got a feeling we are gonna whip the Viles!!!

GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!!!
