Mike after reading your post, went to the UGA site and watched Mark Richt's press conference.
This is the most laid back and relaxed Mark Richt that I have seen in several years. Started thinking about some of the situations that have occurred at UGA over the past 4 or 5 years that have made all of us uncomfortable. Of course a lot of that should be shouldered by Richt, such as WM and things along that line of thinking.
Keep going back to McGarity in my way of trying to pin point the changes that I think I see with Richt. Appears to me that the fire in the belly has returned, if that is the case, UGA will benefit from the newer model of Mark Richt.
Paid close attention to Richt's face in the press conference when asked about Vandy and if we will be prepared. He did not scowl or anything close to that, his facial expression did however change to a serious look and say with certainty that "we are definitely prepared for Vandy" . . . . words comparable to that. Looks like a good one this Saturday, stadium will be rocking . . .
