Quote Of The Day

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23

While you can’t excuse the other PFs, the one on the FG that was so costly was totally bogus. A, Cuff slipped and lost control; B, he didn’t actually touch the kicker, who took a dive to try to draw the penalty.

The UF game was close for a half until our defense crapped its pants in the third quarter and Florida scored on drive after drive. Also Stafford legitimately had a terrible game which you can’t hang all on Bobo (otherwise you have to give Bobo credit for Stafford’s good performances as well which lead to him being a #1), this resulted in the hated Joe Cox coming in and leading us to our only touchdown.

We scored 27 points and gained over 400 yards tonight. That is not “dead in the water” offense. Murray doesn’t have any consistent playmakers other than Green and he is not mature enough yet to carry the team by himself. Anyway if King does not just drop the ball like a sack of potatoes based on past history with Walsh there is 95% chance we win last night. It is a 44 yard kick if we don’t gain another yard.

Was it really supposed to be a flea-flicker? I was watching the Fox coverage and it didn’t really look like a flea-flicker and the announcers said nothing about it. Did the other coverage show it was a flea-flicker?
If it was a flea-flicker, well, that’s horrendous. If it was just a run play with Caleb King, well, the fumble is atrocious, but a big chunk of the blame falls on Clint Boling or whoever got owned on the play.
In general, I thought they looked better tonight than last week, though against a worse team. Our line play is still very frustrating. I just hope the commenters on this blog can be somewhat more reasonable than the morons over at ajc.

I don’t want to argue with you. I just wish people would look at the situation in Athens without their red-and-black glasses on.
Do you not honestly believe that the coaching staff needs to be overhauled after this season?
I honestly don’t think it is going to ever come back for Richt. The attitude of absolute resignation that he has carried for the last 3 years has permeated throughout the entire program. The culture is terrible right now, and I don’t honestly think it will change without new leadership.
Even in the great 2007 season, we lost to a mediocre Scu team and got trounced by a mediocre Ufk team.
Do you think this season is just a blip on the radar? What do you think will change the fortune of the program next year?
LikeLike
Well, on the one hand, I would agree with you that something is rotten in the culture. The main example I’d present is the high quality O-line severely under-performing in several aspects of the game. But in a broader sense, I’d agree there’s something like an attitude of “resignation” in the staff and the players.
The question then is whether there is anything else to be considered, any glimmer of hope. So here are a few thoughts: 1) we had a running game tonight; it could have been managed much better than it was, but we did have one. 2) murray still looks very good, and AJ back helped loosen things up a decent bit.
There are plenty of things you might say to either of these. But I think, under the present circumstances, Richt may well get the players ready to go and still get some positives out of this year. If not, if he and the players give up, then sure, he should go. But the team tonight, aside from a few horrible moments, generally looked much better than last week’s team. So I do not think all hope is lost.

I’m not saying that the coaching is great by any stretch but the fact that it seems we be better off without playing a tailback is just sad. Safety play is pathetic too. #45 is awful.
LikeLike
ummm, this head coach signed off on all 85, several of whom have been in the program 3 years without contributing, some former walk-ons given schollie’s for no reason and some backup kickers.
This head coach signed off on taking Chase Vasser over Jarvis Jones. This head coach thought it was a good idea to give Faloughi, a freshman walk-on, a scholarship. This head coach signed off on offering a LONG SNAPPER a scholarship. This head coach signed a backup kicker to a scholarship when he already had arguably the best kicker in the country on the roster. This head coach decided not to play a freshman QB last year to get him experience, even though the season was already lost and the 5th year senior was a turnover machine.
Would love to trade 85’s, but you can bet your ass that Urban Meyer or Nick Saban would be 5-0 with the 85 that we have. It ain’t about the kids out there on the field right now. They are being failed by an incompetent and lazy coaching staff.

The blame fdor this loss does not belong to Cuff, King, or any other player. The blame for this loss belongs to the coaching staff. Why continue to run the play fake out of the power I?

# 11 All-Time in 1-A Wins UGA from 1892 to today
Only 3 other states more HS in NFL, we don’t get them
Coach Richt really prefers to bring us the homeless, the wayward child, the troubled, the challenged, so that he can Minister to them in their time here.
Once Jim Donnan’s recruits were all gone after the 2005 season finally, Coach Richt has only had his own recruits here.
39-18 on the field after 2005
# 2 most arrested / suspended of all colleges, off the field after 2005
But, not just after the 2005 season has Coach Richt really not done well.
Coach Richt has proven consistently that he cannot beat the Great Teams. How do we know a team is great ? They end up in the Top 10 Final AP Poll. Coach Richt in 10 years is 3-8. The really good programs get that many wins in 1-year vs Top 10 Final AP Poll teams. We are not those programs.
Coach Richt has proven he cannot consistently beat the good teams. How do we know a team is good ? They end up in the Top 25 Final AP Poll. Coach Richt in 10 years is 17-21. This is acceptable. It is not great. It might not even be good, and it 100 percent is a measurement which when compared to 5 other coaches in The SEC today, is worse than all those 5 coaches today in our own conference.
Coach Richt has proven consistently that the can lose to the bad teams, the really bad teams. How do we know a team is really bad ? They do not end up in the Top 25 Final AP Poll. Coach Richt in 10 years has lost to 10 of these teams.
This is the really troubling part, along with the 3 wins in 11 games against Top 10 Final AP Poll teams, that Coach Richt has lost to 10 now teams who are not any bloody good, as measured by they even with their win over Coach Richt, are not Top 25 Final AP Poll teams.
The Arrests, and there have been 10 of those since just March 7, have been especially disconcerting along with the bad press of the upsetting Suspensions. Looking at just the recruits Coach Richt had on our campus after the 2005 season, when not 1 of them were actually recruited here by anyone but Coach Richt, Coach Richt is # 2 in the nation for the most Arrested / Suspended Football Team. That is not just 1 year, but 5 years, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010. As a result, if you actually look at the recruiting classes of Coach Richt, what you actually find is that his recruits are not here. They transferred out, they were kicked off the team, they never qualified, the Admissions Dept at UGA never allowed them in, they failed academically, and they damn sure did not do great off the field or on it. Our recruiting has been bad. Not just not getting us a running back the last several years now, but many other positions where we stockpiled players at 1 position while leaving us huge gaping holes at others. What in the world can we do with so many tight ends today ? Nothing, apparently. We cannot evaluate talent well, and prefer to blame them, than accept the ACCOUNTABILITY that we cannot teach them the most fundamental of football of skills. We play FAVORITES.
SO DON’T TRY TO TELL ME HE IS GREAT.
The real problem is that it is not Coach Richt’s inability to beat the truly great teams with but 3 wins in 11 games so far, nor his disquieting losses to really lousy teams that he has amassed 10 of in 10 years now so far, but his total abject ability to hire a Coaching Staff that really shows me that Coach Richt took advantage of a very good situation here, came here and did well initially and then steadily declined to the point today, that there is not 1 person in the country who thinks that Coach Richt is not in Trouble.
Do you realize that if he fires Mike Bobo and the rest of the Offensive Coaching Staff, and surely must let Rodney Garner go too, that then Coach Richt in the last 10 months, if he were to do it today, has completely fired every single coach he ever hired ?
What does that say about the confidence that any of us then can have that Coach Richt can hire a Coaching Staff ?
10 months fired every coach on his “coaching staff.”

Whose fault is it ?
I have long felt that there should have been a Separation between Church and State. I see no reason to agree with his supporters who say that they prefer to have him to Nick Saban because he is a Forgiving Nice Guy. He is paid $ 3 million a year, and does not know how to recruit, or motivate his own recruits, hire his own coaching staff, determine who should be punished and who should not, how to control his football program on or off the field, beat the truly great teams, and he doesn’t know how to not lose to the really lousy ones. He also does not know how to talk to the fans.
I just don’t think Coach Richt is of this world. I do not think he has the same interests at heart for this University of Georgia Football Program that I have for it. I think if he did, he would have completely different Priorities.
Coach Richt has had 2 great years in 10. Both of those 2 years, he lost to really lousy teams and therefore was pitted against sorry opponents in our bowl game. In fact, Coach Richt has not only Never beat a Top 10 Final AP Poll team in Any Bowl Game Ever, but most if his Supporters were to sit down and look at his only 3 really truly great wins here at Georgia : They were 1 beating # 4 Final AP Poll vols 2001. He Lost 4 games that season. Was that great or a Fluke ? 2 beating # 6 LSU in The SEC Championship Game 2005 but Coach Richt lost to Florida 2005, Auburn 2005 and West Virginia 2005 to take away the shine of the 2005 season. And, 3, beating # 9 Auburn in 2006. But, 2006 like 2001 and 2005, Coach Richt lost too many games to be able to say that these 3 signature wins made us all that great. 2006 Coach Richt lost 4 games.
In the only 2 years of 10 that Coach Richt is said by his supporters to have been Great, he beat nobody. And, he lost games to teams he should not have; thus they say those were fluke losses. Were they ? Who did Coach Richt beat those just 2 years ? Go ahead; I will wait for your reply.
Now, let me be the 1st to say, that I am consumed by the EXCUSES of his supporters. I open the paper daily for all these years back to the mid Fifties here in Atlanta and through all these years, I have never seen SO MANY EXCUSES for 1 guy in all my lifetime.
There are not any excuses for making my alma mater a HALFWAY HOUSE for WAYWARD criminals.
There are not any excuses for losing to 10 teams in 10 years who ended up not in the Top 25 of the Final AP Poll.
There are not any excuses for losing all but 3 of 11 games against Top 10 Final AP Poll teams, and in those 3 wins having miserably average results outside those just 3 wins.
Do I believe that we deserve National Championships ? I certainly do not for 2002 nor 2007 comparing the other teams and the fact that they beat Top 10 Final AP Poll teams those years and Coach Richt has NO WINS over Top 10 Final AP Poll teams by direct comparison either 2002 nor 2007. That is NOT the definition of # 1 and therefore we were not voted by ANYONE as # 1.
Then, his supporters say he was jobbed, robbed of his NC either 1 or both 2002 and 2007. He was NOT.
Do I believe that we as a Program could or should win National Championships ? UGA has 6 National Championships listed in the NCAA Records Book for 1-A College Football. 2 are Consensus. Wally Butts had a run from 1940 to 1948 that is a 9-year run like Coach Richt has had the 9 years prior to this one including 1. Vince Dooley had a run from 1980 to 1988 that is a 9-year run like Coach Richt has had the 9 years prior to this one including 1. In 118 years, we have 2 Consensus National Championships and 4 others that are Significantly Better than Anything Coach Richt has done in his 10 years here. They beat the top teams; they didn’t lose to the really lousy ones; they were not consumed by Bad Press for Arrests / Suspensions and they were not marked by the most ill conceived “coaching staff” of all-time on my campus.
Coach Richt was an Assistant Coach who beat Cupcakes at Florida State.

The takes from listening to the subpar broadcast team. Munson, we miss your voice, calls, and perspectives on the game as goes on. The current broadcast team is representative of this current team. UGA can do better.
Takes based on listening.
O line play. From the first game of the season until game 5 there have been too much penetration into the backfield. La-La did it at least 6 times, and we said that was an issue. Where is the O line coach about this problem. Given up on Searels.
RBs. Can not hold onto the ball. Guess that means King will get about as much PT as Ealey now. And Thomas, you are right Bobo, he has never been in a green jersey because he goes down on his own and does not play enough to get hit. No running backs and no RB coach. McClendon should have been fired 2 season ago…but he is “family”. What a waste of pay.
Play calling. Honey we have 5 kids and do you know how much we owe on this mortgage. Don’t worry, I have 3 plays to get 2 yards and a TD. Let’s see I’ll call two passes with redshirt a freshman. Those fade passes in the endzone work all the time. What is the name of that moving van and can we live your parents for awhile.
The D. Given up on TG. 4 quality D1 schools and you allow your D to give up a TD on their opening possession. Coach if you keep making the same mistake you get the same result.
HC status. We’d like to hear you say something positive and encouraging. Know that is hard, but try. What we would like to hear is this. “Some coaches are gone and they do not know it and I’m looking for some replacements” Positive words…Bobo is gone, so is McClendon, Lilly, and Searels. And TG’s ass could be gone if he does not stop those opening scores.
We have been here before. It is difficult and painful.
The AD has been to the practices and said it is made up of moving parts. Some of those parts are broken and need to thrown out. The AD has to even look at the performance of his trainers. Explain how Green missed an entire quarter due to cramps. He was the only known player. How did that happen CMR and Bobo?
AD, how many mortgages are their in the AD department. With the salaries paid to these coaches UGA is now the laughing stock of D1 football.
Thought I paid for the broadcast of the game on Fox because my contract is not quite up. Thought I gave enough to the Dawgs and the University. Business rule…you do not pay for failure, just not good business.

I can’t give any perspective to this discussion since I willingly turned the channel. I have lived and died with the Dawgs since 1964 but this year is just too much for me. I will be at the UT game and Vandy game but I don’t hold out too much hope. We are the doormat of the SEC and everyone is looking forward to playing us.
