Go Dawgs!

Buc the best thing about Towel Toddy is being able to use it in the past tense when it comes
To being our DC
I don't make much of players being moved up and down in spring ball yes it is used to
Motivate but also gives the coaches an opportunity to see how different players work
Together. Lets them mix and match as needed. Which you also need to do if you want
Quality depth. Go Dawgs

Good conversations guys.
DWS, gets my attention when you mention Langley. Did not take long for grantham to "sit" Brendan. While he had some coverage problems, actually shows grantham's weakness as a defensive coach.
Langley starts and soon is not allowed back on the field, very little playing time. Rather than trying to coach him up, which involves teaching and understanding, grantham went the direction that most of us now understand. In my opinion it was not that Brendan Langley failed, it was that he was not taught. If Brendan Langley ends up starting against Clemson, it will more than prove the point that there is a difference in those that wear the title of "Coach" and those that actually do that (teach and coach) and deserve to be called "Coach".
Pruitt has drawn a line in the sand. What he is doing now will continue as long as he is leading the defense. He cannot retreat from what he has set out for both the players and assistant coaches to do on his watch. If we like what we see in the Clemson game, it will move our program ahead light years. We can call it kicking butts, but in truth we have a "teacher" in Jeremy Pruitt. With grantham, he kicked butts, he however should have had a boot up his butt. Let's face it, towel toddy knew that he had failed miserably in Athens, Dallas, Cleveland and soon Louisville. A million dollar fraud. I said that.
Also say this . . . . Mark Richt is the head coach, all of what we are discussing is being discussed on Mark Richt's watch. I said that also.

I think CMR doesnt know the difference between delegating authority and responsiblity. He's still responsible no matter what happens on his watch. I've got a problem with his not accepting responsibilty and dancing around the issue like a politician in most matters.

DWS you hit the nail on the head, CJP is a motivator and gets things done because he actually makes folks want to do better. Our team in the past few years has lacked motivation because they were continually being bargained with to do the job. I dont believe CJP is going to "deal" with anyone to do anything, at least thats not what I have seen from him to this point. Its been a long time coming Dawgs!
