Coaching, Recruiting Thoughts

Heck... right now I would settle for one who isn't making jokes with the opponents D linemen
with a minute and a half left in a game he's getting ready to blow.

Wartdawg, sometimes I sift back through and read some of the things that myself and others post. Don't feel that most on this board are hard butts, but it seems more and more are coming to the realization that mediocrity has shown its face for far too long now.

It is not like Mark Richt is being questioned about a job that has been well done. The more I look at the record and some of the remarks both pro and con for Richt, the more I realize that all of us have been more than compromising football fans. We have actually leaned in Richt's direction, I say that this way. Grading Mark Richt on a scale of 1 to 100, from everything I read, seems to me he hits somewhere around 50% on the scale. That is my estimation.

If we also take into consideration the hires and fires, the victories for 11 years, based on just how tough the schedules have been and weigh the information, 50% agreeing is probably pretty close to where football knowledge is when discussing Mark Richt and UGA football.

My question is for the pro 50%ers, at this day and time. Remembering that the pro 50%ers were once 100%ers or close to that number and they still bring up the past, past being several years ago when citing his record. What has happened to move the needle from 100 to 50. Can that many UGA football supporters be wrong, is there something that we are not looking at.

From hiring coaches to not using scholarships and as you say Wartdawg shake hands with the enemy before blowing the game. I used the words Dense, yes I did that. From watching Mark Richt's pressers to evaluating his job performance, no longer will he survive without President Adams assistance.

Adams needs to understand as he began to this past season when he went public and asked for better student and fan support. In my many years of UGA football have never witnessed that before. It really is quite simple President Adams, put a winning team that can play SEC football week after week on the field, or . . . . watch the empty seat numbers grow in Sanford Stadium. That happens, huge salaries become an issue in this day and time. Adams, you have gotten away with a lot of things in your tenure, you are now messing around in an area that could bring you to your knees.

Richt cares more about friend's that Georgia winning I would love to see some fire in his heart not the turn the other check if you slaped Grantham he would knock you on your a$$ not turn the other check.But until people stop supporting this will never stop look at Bilichick he started defense side of the ball he now has a good offense Poor old Richt is out dated he will never change great man half way good coach.

Offense are pretty much the same. Football is a copy cat game. Every analyst will tell you, fans have unrealistic expectations. UGA has won 2 NC's over more than a 100 years of football, and we act surprised we aren't in contention. It is fueled mainly by jealousy. Sorry, had uf not one a NC, actually 2, believing the measuring stick wouldn't be so high.

I see so many time people criticize children of today for not patience. Never being OK with what they have. Always having to have something better, or falsely believing something new will automatically make it better. I always hear that kids these days have that, What have you done for me lately attitude? It has been shed in a negative light for society by many of the older generations. I guess after reading many post, with all due respect, I wonder where the kids could possibly be getting if from?

I do not point out to call anyone out. It is what it is to me. However, I can't stand to hear people complain about the selfish attitudes in society today, then turn around, and have the same, Trade it in for something better attitude.

True character is shown in sthletics, I truly believe that. It applies to fans, just as it does players and coaches.

2 months after a 10 win season, and nothing has changed although just about everyone agreed they would take 9 wins before last season. Heard many say that they wanted to see some improvement. NEWSFLASH, you don't go from 6-7 to playing in the SEC championship game without improvement. Period.

Buc, also have to disagree. I will not turn my back on 18-22 year old young men because of who their leader is, whether I agree or disagree. That is all I heard up here. Fans quit going to UT games, look at the end result there. If I could afford season tickets, I would be at every game, regardless of who is wearing the headset.

Oh yeah, and on another note, as to what I believe, I have a much greater fear for the man above than I would by any coach grabbing my facemask. Just Saying, I fear nothing walking this earth, however, my fear of the wrath that the man upstairs could have is very high.
