Coaching, Recruiting Thoughts

AllDawgs5 wrote: Wart, I agree, Willie's D was shredded all to often. However, I keep seeing where people say CMR didn't want to run Willie off. CMR fired Willie under Damon Evans. I don't think there was an abundance of pressure like many want to claim. I just don't think CMR is nearly as dumb as many on this board want to claim him to be.

I think the point is that many recognized WM needed to go long before CMR did.

For example, I started saying it in 2007 after seeing our scoring allowed average rise
for what I think was the 3rd year in a row since he replaced BVG. It took two more years
of seeing our points allowed continuing to go up (it went up every successive year he was
here going from 14.6 to 17.1 to 21.0 to 25.6 to 26.4) before the decision was finally made.

Can't do that Buc, might have considered it one day, but not worth it. Continue to believe what Tucker states.

Understand, will not pursue that particular part as you did me on the offers made to DC's. Just for my satisfaction, you probably meant John rather than Jason. Or, maybe Jason is a son, I would not know that. We all make mistakes, was called out on one some months back that you are aware of and it was foolish in my way of thinking. Some think that they are higher than others, usually comes back to bite them in the butt.

Actually there is a Jason, and a John Jr., but lets just leave it at that. Do make mistakes, everyday I do. Not higher my good friend, betting all on this board have nicer things and are much more valuable than myself. Money and wealth and politics are just a few of the many things that I know nothing about. Football, won't ever apologize for football talk.

Guesssing at this point all of us know where we stand on a very touchy issue, UGA Football.

Don't think that we will see many change their stance in the near future, such is human nature. I can't name a person that regularly posts on this board that doesn't have the same wish for our school and football that points to the negative.

However, when I was serving in the U. S. Navy, and somewhere along the line it was said to us that a sailor that is not bitching is not worth his salt. Took me a while to get a grip on that, but the light finally came on. It was proven in this thread. Folks had things to say and they were not always in agreement, but it was put out in the open. Debate is good if it does not get too personal.

Some times folks get their feelings hurt, I have on occasion, but that has happened to me in other walks of life, not just this board. Personally would rather have a good 10 rounder than a first round knockout, otherwise none of us would ever get everything said that we felt was important on the subject being discussed.

Mark Richt is going to be the head coach at Georgia. McGarity has told us that Grantham will remain as our defensive coordinator. McGarity did not mention others getting a boost. That will be up to the coaches and how they perform.

If I have said one thing in this lengthy thread that matters to me it really comes down to this. I envy the depth that I see at other schools. I hope that we can correct that problem, because if we (UGA) does not, there will be threads that will make this one seem like child's play.

I am older, hope against hope that I will see the Red and Black being "all that" again. Takes everyone pulling together, and forgive me but I must use this word again. Leadership. Don't care if we are talking about ship movements, air tactical teams, ground forces, leadership is required. Football is no different, and this also must be said. . . .

Coaches have different ways of getting there, but as long as rules are not broken, young men in this day and time need to do this . . . . Stop, Look and Listen. Good, Better, Best, never let it rest until the Good is Better and the Better is Best.

Go Dawgs! Coach'em up!!
Wishing a great weekend for all on this board. Buc

Good stuff Buc. We talk a lot and consider you a good friend. No hard feelings here, and no hurt feelings. Guess I was wanting to try to make sure the situation didn't get too bad, and really needed to read my own advice. Believe you and Average both know I have the upmost respect for both, and mainly because I appreciate your post. May not always agree, but can always understand where they come from, and the knowledge backing them.

Good weekend to you as well Buc, and the rest of the Dawgs. Hoping we don't get any snow up here.

GO DAWGS
