Is CMR a top 10 HC?

Ok ogredawg....for you then, just a simple yes/no and who to replace. (We certainly know how you feel.. )

In my unworthy opinion CMR is one off the top ten coaches. If he was fired at UGA he would have multiple HC jobs offered to him. I would like to win a NC just as much as any other UGA fan and I'm not making excuses but to win one the ball has to bounce your way sometimes. So to judge his ability on that point is a little unjust in my opinion. I believe in 80 the last time we won one the NC all the games where not blow outs. I expect us to win every time we take the field and I'm bothers me when we don't. The only times that it makes me sick is when we stop fighting and quit.

Smart
Gundy
Peterson
Patterson
Kingsbury

In that order.

Awesome....so I guess a "no" goes along with the list above?... (kidding....just kidding)

hahahhaa

Thought I said NO in my first post then you asked whom to replace him so I listed them.

Speaka de engrish prease....

Good thread:

I place him in the Top 10 right now (as does the AP and USA Today and possibly the bookies in Vegas) and agree with DAWGtm that he would have MANY, MANY offers if we let him go. Texas and USC come to mind. Speaking of which, Kiffin will soon be available.

Better coaches? Peterson might be, but I might be too if I only scheduled one top opponent each year to start the year. You know I heard a radio program Saturday night (my wife ran into a CVS pharmacy so I was scanning the stations trying to find the game - NOTHING). The premise of the show was that "back in the day" the top teams would only schedule one or two meaningful games per year, and that's how they became "top teams". Interesting show.

Anyway, I put Richt in the top 10. However, ahead of him I say:

Saban
Snyder at Kansas State (possibly the best on this list)
Peterson (maybe)
Miles is close
Meyer, but only if he gets his "dream" QB
Stoops - but again, only if he gets a great QB

As for Spurrious - what has he done in the last 15 years? I just can't pick him.

Among all of the other coaches I could pick, I MIGHT pick Kirby Smart. But I also have to ADMIT it - I would have picked Will Muschimp once upon a time. And I also once said I would drive all the way to Mississippi and personally move Mullen to Athens if he'd take me up on it. Now - not so much.

Given a choice of the kind of "mediocrity" Richt has brought the program versus the kind of "excellence" they now have at Tennessee after they got rid of Fulmer, that explains my "complacency" and acceptance of "mediocrity". Same for Mississippi State.

Edit: Okay, that's enough for now. Back to the closet for me.

And do you realize that Ole Miss/Texas looks like a good matchup this year?!
