Scooby, I do agree that Richt will GET in the 4 team playoff once or twice----a nie acomplishment. But he will NEVER win it unless he truly changes and coaches with urgency like Pruitt and Smart do.
if bad play calling and bad special teams don't klet him down, softness will (no OL, no hard ass on staff to demand attention).
Buc and others, you will like this. My daughter trains with a personal trainer of Blake Sims --Bama QB last season with 2 natty title-- and Nkemdiche. Spent 20 minutes chewing the fat with Sims yesterday.
I can see the "Alabama way" with him==very respectful, very polite, and yes sir, no sir.
I was surprised by something he said. He said it wasn't Saban per say that was the reason for their success. It was Scott Cochran and Cochran's behind the scenes people like Ms. Aimee and her nutrition staff. Blake said when Cochran told you to do something, you did it twice just for good measure. He told me that Cochran MAKES you want to knock a wall down or kiil the opponent. And the ladies in nutrition like Ms. Aimee (he called her that) made sure each player had three uniquely blended shakes based on specific advantages Cochran thought each player needed.
That is the "Bama" way----attention to detail. Knowing it's the little things that make a winner. It's more than X's and O's. It's having the confidence in your own body knowing you have the opponent beat when you step on the field.
This is the most telling part to me: Blake said point blank the difference in Bama and UGA is NOT skill. Buc, I won't even tell you and the others what he said the difference was
Those on Dawgs.com have spoken the difference many times.
Only wish Richt would have bothered to ask Buc. wlayton, YD1, wartdawg and others.
