Win or Lose - Our Head Coach and OC Suck.

See where some think that Friend fell down on his job. Some say and have said on this board that coaches coach and players play. Friend took what was nothing more than a rag tag lineup and pieced together some players that were not recruited by him.

I've trusted a lot of what you've said about Friend, but he' going to have to prove it
to me before I jump on board.

NFL left tackle.
NFL TE.
Center everyone said should have been All American.
Senior JAnderson starting his 14th consecutive game.

All that beef... and this was the result? So... is it going to take
NFL caliber talent at all 5 spots for us to be able to field a OL you could call
decent??

oh yes there were several more but those 3 were the key to win......when MSU tied it up and we played for the OT you could see it in the players eyes......confidence was gone and was shattered on the taking a knee on second down.......CMR broke the confidence of his offense when he basically told them you cannot score the game winner so lets kick it on 3rd down instead.....a coach is supposed to instill confidence in not only his players but himself also......and IMHO CMR has given up on UGA ever being a 1st class SEC team.........

Remember the Alamo . . . . oops remember Memphis. You would think that one would learn from their mistakes. Offensive line quit on Richt in the UCF game. They sure as heck don't gain confidence when the head coach shows none.

Possibly, but is Friend going to be able to do anything to ever overcome that?

I have my doubts.

Buc, I am sick and tired of excuses, wait until next year, fire Bobo, before that fire Willie, etc., etc.
Recruiting is an issue. Recruit kids who want to play.
Crowell, a prime example.
Having said that, we take good recruits and turn them into erratic liabilities.
Our offense looked as bad as it has all year. We should have been a fine tuned machine.
We were an old clunker. Hard to handle this loss.
Richt saying it will pass only makes me madder.

I don't doubt whether Richt wants to win.
I doubt whether he refuses to lose.

Guess that is why we look for opinions on this site, not the FIRST CRAP we see on others. Opinions are just that, opinions. Some opinions have a bit more clarity behind what has become an issue.

Often I see posts such as . . . . we have the largest line in football, both pro and college. What the hell does that truly mean? A player weighs above 320 pounds and he is guaranteed to be all that, not in my book. Size might matter in some places, but that does not prove itself to be true on the football field.

Yep, Buc likes Friend as offensive line coach, true statement. Buc is not and has not been sold on Richt/Bobo for some time. The latter two have had a lot of time in grade to prove themselves. Many now doubt they will ever reach heights that some UGA followers seek.

If I or anyone else had a choice to release one of two coaches, who would that be? Bobo or Friend. If it were some others on this board it would move much further up the ladder, and I am one of those.

Most on this board are licking their wounds, know that I am. My wounds come from replays and memories of the past, like Memphis again being ONE EXAMPLE.
