Finally, Solid Coaching

Read an article in the Macon Telegraph, interview with Jeremy Pruitt. Recommend the article to all.

The one thing or one of the things that has really bothered me for quite some time is what has appeared to be a lax coaching staff.

Pruitt might fall flat on his face, however I doubt that. He definitely calls it the way he sees it. Nothing wishy-washy about the man. Also, don't think it is him being "bull headed", he comes from a background of hard work paying off. Pruitt is an example of that.

Rules changes by the NCAA allowing coaches and players to spend extra time together will pay dividends for every university, for sure our university. Allowing players and coaches to get together over the summer months will more than likely cut down on some of the foolishness. No doubt Pruitt/Rocker will be going eye ball to eye ball with the players. Those that want to play in the Fall know that they are under a different group of coaches, paying attention to detail means playing time.

From what I know about the defensive coaches, players check the BS at the door, football is the name of the game in this room. A few players have found out already that things have changed and choose easier paths. To me that is a very good testament to Pruitt/Rocker and company.

Coachng like we have now on the defense was long overdue.

Think I have mentioned more than once the folks that call themselves gator fans are not happy with Muschamp. Will is trying real hard to open a better link between himself and those that buy tickets. Frankly, he is in a fight for his job. Won't hear that from Jeremy Foley, but when Foley brings the hammer down, that is the end.

Picked up this portion of an article about Muschamps question and answer session on the roast beef and green bean circuit.

Different young lady asking the question this time about UGA. Remember well when this question was answered by Will Muschamp when he first became head coach at Florida, asked by a different lady.

Muschamp answers the question much differently this time around. Have to be careful what you say, can come back to bite you in the butt. And did.

Muschamp gave an in-depth and humorous anecdote about coaching at LSU and almost being upset by a visiting Oregon State team. He promises the offense will be better and that the Gators will “contend for a championship.”

But 2013 is still the elephant in the room when a girl is handed the microphone and asks “the question everyone’s thinking.”

“Are we going to beat Georgia this year?” she says, “And FSU for that matter? Please say yes coach.”

“I’m very confident in where we’re headed,” Muschamp answers with a smile as the rest of the room chuckles in agreement.

The question was posed in a way that you can tell the fanbase is tired — tired of losing, especially to the bitter rivals his predecessors dispatched so frequently.


Beating UGA in JAX is a must for Muschamp.

Muschamp will face off against Jeremy Pruitt's defense this time around, the same defensive coordinator that led the FSU butt whipping last season against the gators. Huge game this year in JAX.

Effort and Attitude applies to every thing you do in life. I hope we have turned the corner time will tell. I do like how the new coaches are handling their business. Attitudes are contagious good or bad.



Also would love another helping of gaytor tail this year. Let's send muschamp a packing a fellow shouldn't forget where he came from.

DAWGtm, Will Muschamp said some things about UGA that were totally unnecessary. Actually speaks to his lack of maturity. He would not have the position he has today had not UGA extended itself. There is a right and wrong way, some call it the fork in the road.

So far Muschamp is getting his butt handed to him by the Red and Black. One more time will probably finish his head coaching career, at Florida anyway. A win in 2014 in JAX and the "Swamp" will be empty in the 2015 Seson if Will Muschamp is not released.

I don't like to see folks lose their jobs, unless justified. This is justified. Just as General Shinseki should be released. General Shinseki was good on the battlefield, Muschamp was good as a defensive coordinator in Texas. Both are in the wrong positions now. Foley has his eyes on Muschamp, believe that. Do not put any worth in President Obama living up to his word in tough situations.

Pruitt/Rocker will have a "plan" for Will Muschamp. Bet that.

Could not pass this up. "Pouty" waited for a "controversy" to pop up and here he is again.

Read this same material way before "Pouty" threw it up on the AJC looking for "clicks". Not saying he copied, but the material looks like the same I read a day before the AJC posted.

Article that I read, (not the AJC) said that season tickets were sold out, number was 55,000, think I am right.

McGarity's stock along with the "Group" continues to fall from where I sit. Haven't raised ticket prices for a few years, don't see any type of trophies in the cases and McGarity/Group want more money.

www.ajc.com/news/sports/college/georgia-...es/nf5kM/#cmComments

Interesting read are the comments to "Pouty's" day late AJC article. A lot of truthful comments, maybe like the one below.

I’m pretty sure they sell out each game the problem is people don’t attend. Basically they have two very desirable games, two moderately desirable games and two “who cares” games each year. So, lots of folks pay for the big games and go to the Apple Festival the other days.

Also, the ticket price doesn’t even include the amount people must donate for the “opportunity” to buy tickets. At the end of the day folks are paying a lot of money for two potentially decent football games while the administrators and coaches are laughing all the way to the bank.

Tip: Buy tickets on game day from scalpers eliminating the donation cost and you could even end up paying close to face value for the ticket. If you can’t get a ticket tailgate then simply head downtown and watch it on TV you’ll probably have more fun.
