Speaking Of Recruiting,......

Buc, it's unbelievable how widespread this UGA delusion is. 100% correct that the AJC fish wrap is full of this crap, but many other sites as well. Even on the facebook fan sites people are spouting this rhetoric. It's hard to believe so many can be duped so easily, for so long. Makes me wonder sometimes how much free time richt has....maybe he has created about 1000 different online profiles and he's the one writing this idiocy on all these different sites.

Question was asked on this board recently. Just where does the head coach fit?

Head coach figured that out a long time ago after turning the offense over to Bobo, the defense over to Martinez. Since then he has been up to his usual way of doing things . . . . plug and play.

When asked about the quarterback position, he actually enjoys not answering the question. Keeps the media folks coming back, and also allows him the fast and easy track . . . . no difficult questions such as . . . . How many more years do you need to reach the Final Four? What is the problem with Georgia not winning a SEC Championship since 2005? Why do you take credit for the IPF when it was Pruitt that spoke up and got McGarity and the Group off of their butts? Why is it in your pressers in Butts-Mehre that you field only positive talk about your position of 14 going on 15 years? Hard questions a while back had you riled up enough to return to the podium and play the bad ass role. Some of us call that "thin skinned". Protect that 4+ million a year, and more than likely you will still be the head coach and those on the staff now will be long gone.



And this . . . .



And this . . . .

Richt, you have had problems at quarterback basically since your arrival in Athens. Can't seem to make a decision. AM did leave campus a couple of times and get tutoring elsewhere. 2015, still not able to make a quarterback decision. Except the decision that has already been made concerning Jacob Eason. Not going to have "competition" when he arrives?

Is your inability to make decisions the reason that you seem to be rated middle of the pack in SEC coaching? Nationally also.

And this . . . . Pulled from the article below . . . .

“This is the first place I’ve ever coached at that didn’t have [an indoor facility],” defensive coordinator Pruitt said in a previous Red and Black article in November. “We’ve actually been very fortunate this fall. There’s only been like three or four days this fall which is unusual, I bet, for here.”

Crazy smoke and mirrors side show we have this year.
Now we see what happens when M&M money gets to those who are already in over their pay grade.
A fine mess it is.

ogredawg, here's a little more from that same article. Not exactly the kind of stuff that gets the optimism rolling, huh?

"Matt Johns, who was mostly behind Greyson Lambert last season, has passed Lambert as the No. 1 signal caller.
"Matt did the best job," said UVa head coach Mike London. "He was the most productive, he was the most efficient. It wasn't close. If it was close, we'd still be talking about going into August camp with two guys still fighting for the same position.
"But Matt clearly did what he was supposed to do and led our team in a way that we think a quarterback should be able to play in order for us to be successful."
Offensive coordinator Steve Fairchild said the QB positioning is still "a fluid situation" and the depth chart reflects if the Cavaliers were "playing a game tomorrow, which we're not."

Virginia post-spring football depth chart

A look at the Virginia football team's depth chart after the completion of spring practices.
Johns appeared in nine games at quarterback last season and made three starts. The rising redshirt junior completed 55 percent of his passes for 1,109 yards with eight touchdowns to five interceptions.
"At the end of the day, he just graded out slightly higher, was more productive [than Lambert]," Fairchild said. "We felt like that he deserved, at least at this point, to be No. 1 on the depth chart."
Lambert, also a rising redshirt junior, started all nine games he played in last season, completing 59 percent of his passes for 1,632 yards and 10 touchdowns to 11 picks.
"Right off the bat, [Lambert told me] 'I'm going to win that spot back,'" London said. "You want him to think like that, you want him to say things like that." "

I guess Lambert changed his mind about winning that spot back - seems to think it'll be easier to win a spot in Athens.

Thriller I think it was more like the girlfriend was going to "cut him off" if he did not transfer. He had a better chance to start at UVA then he does at UGA and I still think with the girlfriend thing and one of the 3 going (possibly) elsewhere made him decide not to "compete" at UVA. Plus he is a really smart guy and the grad schools at UGA are top notch. So a win win for him anyway you look at it.
