I am done with Richt

...and next year when we don't "get 'em" the blame will be put on a new QB and no O-line after we lose a couple there to graduation


...and the next year the blame will be put on losing Gurley to the NFL, another new QB, and a couple of more graduation loses on the O-line...




but we'll get them the year after that!!

The 4 or 5 that I went to made no mention of Richt being at fault or held accountable. There were posts about firing Grantham, beating FU and hiring Muschump as DC after he is fired, how bad injuries are hurting us, and my favorite, how is a 3 way tie for the east broken so we can get to the SECCG.
Looks like all is well in Dawgtown, (except on this site) and richt is a great guy and he'll fix this and we'll get 'em next year.

sadlerdawg, I do visit many sites throughout the day. You are spot on with what you posted above. When this season is over, bloggers/fans? will be dormant until such time as the coach speak starts after the recruits have signed the LOI. Then they will be all over the AJC and other places "schooling" many of us on this board about Georgia football.

Yesterday we had a sampling of what the mullet wrapper (AJC) has to offer when one of their own, wilrogers1 put his foot in the door. Spineless folks that hide behind their keyboards. Figure he is of the posting age on the AJC board, 16 years at a maximum. Love slapping the spit out of that type, not worth a fist to the mouth. Sorry, I slip sometimes, maybe too often. :whistle:

Whether or not Richt has any input one way or the other, we may never know.

36869, at least Mike Bobo said change was needed. Do not believe that Richt has done anything other than delegating authority. Makes life much easier, and it allows him a scapegoat when the "heat" gets too close. Folks that control what Richt's future will be was settled a while back with the new contract.

McGarity thinks that this will blow over, and when we read what sadlerdawg said about visiting other sites, leaves little doubt we are in for a replay of the FSU drama over Bowden. Truth.

somehow makes a difference. News flash... every program out there has a bunch of "good guys" and a few bad guys as well. MR's team is no different. It has no moral superiority over anyone else, and Alabama, Ga Tech, Clemson, whoever.. all have good guys. Doesn't change results.


A couple of quotes from two different coaches after their teams loss this week. Take from it what you will:


"But to Richt, the mistakes that are happening aren't reflective of a lack of coaching, but execution. He elaborated on that when asked Sunday if he felt the need to examine if there's an overriding thread plaguing the special teams.

“I think again you’ve gotta look at everything in totality," Richt said. "Everybody wants to talk about the things that go wrong. And obviously when things that go wrong, they cost you a position or whatever it is, it’s a huge deal. Or whether you have a special teams coach or don’t have a special teams coach, or whether you have a special teams coordinator or not, you’ve gotta field the punt, you’ve gotta snap the ball, you’ve gotta catch the snap."

That was in reference to Trent Frix snapping the ball high to punter Collin Barber, and Swann not catching the punt. Individual mistakes, not schematic ones, as Richt pointed out.

“I mean,” Richt said, starting to laugh, “What does that have to do with whether you have a special teams coordinator or not. Those are just things you need to execute, the basic fundamentals of it.

Now for the second quote...

"There was a number of reasons why we don't win that game," Miles said of the Tigers' season-crippling, 27-24 upset loss at Ole Miss Saturday. "But in my opinion, IT'S ME. I did not get it across to them. I made the points. I spoke the words, but I need to teach better. I challenge myself that way."


Like I said... take from it what you will...

Well.....MAYBE you put somebody back there that is RELIABLE in catching the punt??....find someone that is RELIABLE in snapping the ball....and maybe find someone RELIABLE that can catch the snap??....uh, isn't THAT coaching CMR??

Bottom line....the staff ain't going anywhere.

McGarity will give 3 reasons for this year:

1. injuries
2. youth
3. simply need a ST's coach

All will be well....

So many good points in this thread fellas, I'll be brief as I can:

1) I was worried we wouldn't survive the trip to Nashville, we didn't (lots of reasons, many have been discussed already; i'll just say this, I'm not surprised we lost which might have helped my anger levels; anyways, very, very strange game wouldn't you say?)

2) I still like this team's attitude & commitment a whole lot more than any UGA team since DJ's Dawgs in 2005 (seem like a very tight knit team & I like the way they go about their business on the football field, not a whole lot of jaw flapping or unwarranted celebrations; their professional & business like approach makes me proud)

3) I give it less than a 1% chance for Coach Richt to be fired & personally, I'm ok with that (not saying I think CMR is the greatest or that I am scared of change or that I don't think UGA can find a better head coach...just saying I'm not going to go all postal if he isn't shown the door at the end of this year; realize I'm probably in the minority here w/gillette & understandably so...just putting it out there, not looking to argue w/anyone who has valid reasons for wanting CMR replaced)

4) I give it greater than a 75% chance (fingers crossed) for CTG to be replaced at the end of the season (read a bunch of STUFF since Sun. & I don't think he & CMR & even the players are on the same page or have been ever since CTG flirted w/the NFL last off-season; remember Shawn Williams PUBLICLY stating who he would have on the starting D last year if HE were the DC; also, I think the BIG $$$ donors are tired of CTG's antics & his results, or lack thereof)

wlayton, jeez I hope your item #3 above gets addressed this off-season even if NOTHING else changes; if special teams is not addressed I say quit punting, quit fielding punts, just go for it on every 4th down & send 11 men to block the kick IF we ever get a 3 & out.

Keep the lively chat going fellas...best reading & best posters on an internet full of UGA football is undoubtedly found here on SteveDawg's web-site!
