RICHT---PLEASE RESIGN

Most everyone on this board is very familiar with my position as it relates to Coach Richt. However, I would like to illustrate a few points, as to where WE are as a team, a family, a nation.

Georgia's first possession began on THEIR 2 yard line and we promply marched down the field with a nice balance of pass and run. AM was 7 for 7 and we were averaging 4 yards per carry. We eventually stalled on THEIR 2 yard line, 4th and inches and WE KICK A FIELD GOAL!?!?!?!....For me, that signals alot more than "taking the necessary points" and set the stage to the embarrassing, mediocrity that followed. Georgia's last possession of the game, trailing by 4 points, under the shadow of their own goalpost, AM takes another sack from Central Florida's version of David Pollack. Instant replay shows a limited, almost non-existent block from punkass Ben Jones.

This group of athletes is not a team. Hasn't been one all season. I haven't seen anything that resembles a team in a few years. THIS is what Mark has allowed and I do NOT believe he has the ability to turn it around. His post game presser was another in a litany of "Awww, shucks,...gotta make Georgia be Georgia,...gotta improve!!!"...moments of obviousness the likes that even Ray Charles and Ronnie Milsap could see!...

Sadly, UGA became THE bottom dweller of the SECE last night and even with a favorable schedule, a dream team of recruits, I suspect we will be treated to much of the same next year and every season thereafter while CMR is manning this ship...I distinctly recall the last coach that opinned about great recruits and turning the corner for UGA....Sadly, CMR's record and performance has equalled, if not bested that of former Coach Donnon...

Sad,....



GO DAWGS !!!!!.....RESIGN MARK!!!!!!

Just like everyone knows AJ isn't going to pass up on his millions, Richt isn't going to pass up on his 2.8 million. Great work if you can get it--$2.8 to do nothing other than make excuses 4 months out of the year.

Excellent points sadlerdawg.

Know that I scream often about the amount of money these athletes make. Time has come for these coaches to step up and earn their keep.

Richt came into a situation at UGA that Jon Gruden came into in Tampa. The bases were loaded just needed a change in offensive philosophy. Both were/are one time heroes. We fill their pockets and then bear the consequences. Jon Gruden has received 2 million from Tampa since he was booted, literally. Still has more coming. So what is the picture here? Morris is hired and the franchise is turned around quickly. Same can be said for UGA, need new life blood in our program. Richt is done, finished, kapoot. Those who say that it would cost us 2 to 5 years to get the program on course don't understand COACHING.

Richt reminds me of Haynesworth of the Redskins. Got those fat guaranteed paychecks and that is when the hammer drops. Everyone realizes that a huge mistake has been made and the people that make the program a success . . . fans . . . get dumped.

Richt is quick to say that he is trying to influence some of our players to stay, as if the money will be there forever. Richt does not have to worry about injury, players do. Richt has his 2.8 million plus, AJ only secured crumbs. Houston at this point is basically penniless and my question to Richt would be this . . . If the players that you want to stay get injured, can no longer compete on the football field . . . will you take care of them for the rest of their lives . . . .

Only person that Richt has to worry about at this point is AD McGarity, not sure if our AD has the same spirit that AD Foley has, we will see shortly. Have noticed that Richt has been sucking up to McGarity recently. Wonder what the buyout is on Richt's contract, damn sure not 2.8 million, much more than that.

Said it before, UGA is positioned well on the money front. Buy his damn contract. Don't do it, keep Richt and watch much more than his buyout dollar wise fall from the hands of those controlling the purse in Athens and other places. I won't be surprised to see empty seats in a once packed stadium. Then we will see what our AD thinks about contracts.

He's starting to sound just like Zook......"gotta get better"....

I would contribute to help buy out his contract if need be.

WOW. I thought my anger was due to a couple too many Buds last night-but nope. Reality is here.

NC, glad you brought that up about a FG on the 2 tard line. (MY WIFE LOOKED AT ME and complained about the same ole Richt. THAT is why he must go-he will not get better b/c that isn't something he can correct. The decision to kick the FG is who he is. Not gonna change.

NC, remember the Vandy game? On about the 15, 4th and 2 feet, out comes the FG unit.

Remember the Aub game this year? 4th and 2 on about the 15, knowing we can't keep up with Cam and the boys, we KICK a FG.

By the way, this may mean nothing, but my wife is friends with a player from a few years back who she went to Norcross High with; on his facebook site, he couldn't believe we hired the new S&C coach-didn't ike the move. For whatever that is worth.

Please step down Richt. We need someone with the testicular fortitude to say, "Dammit!! This is UGA and dammit we WILL be going for it on 4th and less than a yard inside someone's five yard line."

We need a Mark Richt-not a Marcia Richt.




Dan Mullen? Kirby Smart? Chris Petersen? Gary Patterson? Charlie Strong? Jim Harbaugh? Todd Grantham?? Brian Van Gorder (still think he can be a HC-like Harbaugh, a big jackass though

---

David Pollack said HE was the best coach he ever had at ANY level).


I don't know, but Richt has to go.



Like Johnny Cochran would say, "If you have to kick, you must evict."

BulldogShannon, I hated the S&C hire from the get go. We need a new, innovative, up to speed, YOUNGER S&C coach.

I also will reiterate to go after Gary Patterson and his whole staff like I mentioned earlier. See what they did to Wisconsin and giving up that much weight disadvantage? Now THAT is coaching my friends. McGarity should call him TONIGHT........no........he should catch a plane out TONIGHT and meet him face to face and offer him the job. Raises for his complete staff as well.
