My 2 obvious impressions from Sanford....

sadlerdawg, I'm certainly not trying to point you out or anybody else, that's what makes this forum so great......we all have and share opinions.

Believe it or not, the coaches do make some good calls. I certainly understand all the criticism that has been pointed out every day, I've said my share as well.

QUESTION......suppose we win out and every game is very sloppy BUT we sqeek out the wins.....finish 10-2, we go to the SECCG. Should we still be critical? Should CMR be fired? Is the glass still half empty? Will the bashing stop? Will we change our minds? Is CMR still a bad coach? or is he getting things turned around?......just curious because I don't know.

wlayton, if we win out, Richt won't be fired, we all know that. But I will say in all honesty that for us to win out, we will HAVE to show great improvement and will not win all of them in a very sloppy fashion, IMO. I think we can win out, if the improvement from the players continues and the boneheaded decisions from Richt and Bozo cease, or at the very least are contained to a minimal amount each game. Hint--we will not win them all kicking FG's inside the 5 on 4th and inches!!!

If CMR does not start building the CONFIDENCE of the offense I will continue to be critical.....changes have to be made.....sloppy play will not win an SEC or NC

I'm DEFINITELY not trying to defend the coaches, but I do feel like Richt is getting more active in the running of the offense, at least it looks that way from the stands. That, in my mind, is correcting things...at least as much as they can be corrected with the current staff still in place!

If Richt is calling more plays, or vetoing Bozo, or whatever, than the corrective action is to take over as OC and let Bozo coach QB's, not 1/2 and 1/2, or vetoing, or whatever they are doing. And that can be done mid season and keep the staff intact. To me, THAT is correcting the mistake. What they are doing is putting a band aid on an amputated limb.

Wlayton, I stated earlier I am going to watch how the year plays out. I am going to continue to do that. Glad we are winning, and staying relatively healthy. I feel the team is getting better, but I am guessing that is all to luck, or soley because players are making plays. To answer your question, I am pretty sure Richt could win the SEC this year, and 70% of the board would still want him gone. However, right now I don't think we are going to win the SEC so that won't be a dilema. CMR is going to be gone at the end of the season.

Could be scary? Don't know if everyone realizes this, but we are not going to get Nick Saban. And we are going to lose CTG. I hope we know what we are asking for. The grass isn't always greener on the other side. I hope it is because I have seen to many programs over-react and end up in a lot worse boat than the one they were in. Don't want my Dawgs going through that.

GO DAWGS

I know he would stay and we need to improve. But going 10-2 and winning UGLY?

I'm simply asking in that scenario will most people still bash him? Want him fired still? Still be critical?

Would be interesting to see.
