From Athens- Happy I Am

Good Morning All,

First off I understand that many here have dug their heels in and won’t have a feel good about our football team until we win a

NC

BCS Bowl Game

SECCG

Wins over Climpson, Chickens,UT,UF,AU,GT,Vandy oh hell make it a perfect 2014 season

Or

CMR is fired or retires

Adams and his buds move to Mars

Ticket prices get reduced at Sanford along with cheaper concession prices

Add any two or more items that are your favorites not listed above

Secondly I understand that nothing has changed even with new coaches and a very good NSD incoming class it all needs to translate to the playing field with improved play.

We also need to see the correction of our same repeated areas of failure.

However,

I look forward to having the opportunity to watch and be part of the process of improvement with a voice of support for our players and coaches while it is happening.

Wasn't that one thing we all wanted to see, Improvement from game to game

Another point of agreement is none of this would have not been possible had Towel Toddy remained our DC

In speaking with several locals along with my own thinking is that after the Vandy game what was a cool relationship turned to ice between TG and CMR

The back channel activity was sent into motion to see that TG had a new home in 2014 after that game IMO

Remember Mac telling CMR let him know what he needed.

In this case it was a new DC.

I never bought that the buyout of TG was a factor. As it happened it was not an issue

This news was learned by CSL and he left knowing what was coming

You bet it was personal problems

You would not be retained with a new DC Leave now and find a new job

CCW and CKO waited to see if they had a shot at being the new DC

Once the search left Athens then they found new employers

To me it seems unlikely that CWF and CJP did not have conversations about Georgia before TG departed

Seems CJP is living in CWF basement while in the relocation process

A deal like this needed more than two days to happen

The fact that FSU didn't even counter makes me go what?

Yea I know CJP was buds to CJF and his heart was here in Athens

That rings like a lead bell

Don’t buy the wife to be wanted him out of Tally and away from the co-eds. It’s not like he is going to be coaching Boys Town here in Athens

Truth is we may never know exactly what took place

What we do know is the results which is the departure of TG

A very good thing

Been said also that CJP saved CMR bacon easy to find truth in that statement

If this move improves our team and how it plays then I am good with the trade-off in the short
term.

CBM wins National Recruiter of the Year- Kudos again

Damn it Mac pay the man keep him Athens

While the kool Aid cooker remain idle

I for one have a renewed interest as to what this all means

Who gets PT Spring ball is a blink away Like the idea we will get to see some coaches at work Players looking to improve and have a chance at just that with coaches who teach

Pause and give thanks

Have a great weekend and a safe week

As always “Go Dawgs”

Go Dawgs!

yankeedawg1, I try hard not to say too much outside of threads that I create or am in agreement with. You make many good points in this thread.

Very difficult for me to look past some things that are continuing to be played out the same way, year after year.

When I see players on scholarship to the Unversity of Georgia, it bothers me when I (Buc) have more heart in our football team than those wearing the cleats.

The mess that has occurred can only be laid at the feet of those that are directors of the program. If there is a lack of leadership, we feel the consequences on Saturday afternoons in Sanford. Case in point . . . . JHC, there were many before him, but lack of leadership has prevented the message from getting through.

Coach Pruitt could be a very good thing for all of us that want to see change. The change that we are asking for has not been forthcoming for far too long. Like that hole in the road, along comes a crew and shovels some asphalt into the hole and rakes "over it". Has the repair been made? That is the last question that should be asked and answered truthfully.

Hoping that everyone up that way is getting some relief from a brutal winter. Remember them well, chickened out and headed south.

Getting L.Carter made me a little happy feel like he can take a game over like Jarvis did.

Now if there's No off field issues during the summer I'll be happy.

Thanks for the post Yd1.

Hopefully Pruitt can do what the longest tenured coach in the SEC couldn't.
We all want the same thing, a National Championship.
What I don't want is a fat, happy head coach.
Successful coaches are never satisfied.

While I am a seasoned senior I am a plebe as a Dawg fan of 12 years

I have a deep respect for those who have time and grade in the Bulldog Nation

Your frustration is mine plus 100 times

While we may have different thinking about how to reach our goal the majority of us share what

That goal is for our beloved

Stay Well friends

Dawgs

Go Dawgs!
