If you’re still trying the gauge the warmth of the seat Mark Richt’s derriere is resting on, Mr. Conventional Wisdom is here to clue you in:
… There is a nagging sense from some Georgia people that Richt’s time has come and gone. The SEC East is as weak as it has been in a generation with new coaches at Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky and Vanderbilt, and with Spurrier having some issues at South Carolina. There is an opportunity for somebody to step up and become the dominant program in the division. Richt has to make the case that he is capable of getting Georgia back into that position.
So Richt needs to win against a Florida team that is limping into Saturday’s game. It doesn’t matter how good or bad Florida is. It’s Florida. Richt can’t go to 2-9 against the Gators. He just can’t.
Say what you will about Barnhart, he doesn’t make shit up on his own. This is coming from somewhere – “some Georgia people” – to him.
It might be a good idea to come out of the game in a position to do some serious fist pumping with the faithful, Mark. Just sayin’.
I agree Senator. Tony has great sources inside every SEC athletic department.
I have to agree to an extent. The SEC East is awful, and Richt should be able to win it easily with Georgia’s stability and talent.

Couldn’t agree more. 3-8 over 11 years is the best case scenario for Richt’s record against UF. That should not be considered a good job against our biggest divisional rival. 2-9 would simply be pathetic. Ask yourself, knowing what we know about every team on our schedule, their performance to date, injury situations, coaching tenures… what loss would be acceptable? Where we would say, “They’re just better” and be ok with it? I think it’s highly debatable for the teams we’ve lost to, and certainly not for any of the teams we’ve actually beaten. Can you imagine how upset we’d be if VU had scooped that punt and scored? Looking ahead, UF in year 1 of Muschamp, with the injuries they’ve had? AU in total rebuild mode, at home? GT, ever? I can’t imagine us finishing worse than 10-2 without it being extremely disappointing.

Good points above.
I think it’s sad that the fan base has become “with him or against him” and excessively black and white about Richt’s future. It’s really hard to have intelligent and critical discussions about it.
Anyway… I agree with you on the big picture question here: If not this year, then when?
If we underachieve this season, we will have reached a point where I can no longer say we have much to lose by taking the risk on a coaching change.

This problem about beating FLA has gone one through 3 different Head Coaches at both UGA and FLA. I would agree with the analysis stated by Barnhart if UGA playing FLA had been done on a level playing field. The fact is that UGA plays FLA as an away game every year plus many of those years FLA has had an extra week to get ready for that game whereas UGA did not. Those problems were created by the 2 previous ADs, both of whom should be fired…er……wait…..uh………….

I have to disagree with you that this is an away game for us every year compared to Florida. Having been to many, many Ga_Fla games in Jax, that stadium really and truly is split 50-50. There is no subtantive difference in supporters, so I just don’t buy that it’s an away game for us any more than it is for them. (Now if you want to argue that there is a disporportionate burden on UGA fans to get there each year, then absolutely right. But we are still there, 50-50.) Our team also flies to Jacksonville, which doesn’t take dramatically longer than Florida drving to the game from Gainesville, so it’s not like we are sitting on a bus for 6 hours while they only drive an hour, where I could maybe see some kind of advantage for them.

But I don’t think Jacksonville is any more a disadvantage for UGA than it is for Florida in terms of crowd/atmoshphere etc. and I don’t think either of our previous ADs were let go for Florida-related failures.

My takeaway from that is that Barnhart didn’t say “some people inside the administration”. Tony does have a lot of contacts throughout college football, and he’s certainly plugged in to Butts-Mehre particularly well. If that was coming from inside the building, I think he’d note that. But yeah, people are saying that, come walk through my tailgating area sometime. Richt can only hurt his stature with a loss Saturday, he can only help it with a win. I don’t necessarily believe that’s a one-game referendum on his continued employment at UGA, though, I really don’t. It’s the biggest game of the year for many reasons. I think that’s really all that needs to be said. But you’re right that Barnhart has become “Mr. Conventional Wisdom”.

No reason to be hasty now. CMR has a winning record against the other “rivals”. Recruiting is huge and he’s great at it.

UGA’s roster might look like GT’s….I’m NOT saying he should keep the job if UGA continues to flounder, but let’s not base the decision on one game…What if he loses to Fl, and then wails the snot out of AU, KY, NMSt, and hangs another fifty on Tech, and wins against a good opponent in a bowl game. Should he be fired if that happens? No. Something good is growing in Athens (it seems) but growning slowly. As long as it’s growning, we’re going in the right direction (see the story of the turtle and the hare).

UPDATE: he is not the guy in the photo, but he claims he put the pic out there not because of the beer (despite saying “with a beer in his hand in the tweet) but because AM was wearing an FSU shirt.

Balanced perspective. No one wants us to lose on Saturday,we shouldn’t and probably won’t, but anyone who thinks this is as simple as a one game do or die is seriously out of touch. Mcgarity isn’t as shallow as many who are on a witch hunt. There will always be a segment that wants a new coach, just as there is a group who wants the back-up Qb, a new OC/DC; it is simply the nature of the passionate people who follow CFB.
If something is wrong, it is McGarity’s job to fix it, but if he were to make a decision on whether we win or lose on Saturday we need a new AD, not a new football coach. Mark Richt has done exteremely well at UGA despite the media’a constant focus on a way to sell their papers/websites, or shows on the airwaves. When the target of their hysteria survivies, they simply run another target in. While the media amplifies the noisy segment of UGA’s fanbase, there is a ver sizable group who realizes we have the right guy at the helm. We will win Saturday, and probably be in Atlanta. That would be the 5th time UGA has won, or tied for the East in CMR’s eleven years. If you give him the first as a “honeymoon period”, that is a .500 batting average. Have we lost games we should have won? You bet, all coaches do. But you have to keep a perspective on the Big Picture.
If it weren’t for the UGA blowhards on message boards and call in shows, the “hot seat” issue would not have been about UGA. Media just picks up from the ammunition provided by the Generation X group on computers and cell phones. Much like the Bama faans that call into F’Bomb every day, they aren’t the decision makers. Talk to fans around the country, they all think we are fools for wanting to make a change, I tell them: we don’t. TB is just another media bully trying to have a hot story and we have fans who bite on every story like this. Ignore him, an he will go pick on another HC with a gullible fanbase. I don’t deny we have some disgruntled fans that are over 20, but they are a minority.

Let me make myself clear. Last season CMR and the staff kicked away at least 3 games, maybe more, with bad decision-making at the end when the game was on the line. I won’t get into specifics here but my take on those mistakes is well documented on this blog. CMR and the entire staff deserved to be canned at the end of last season. The powers that be decided to keep CMR and the staff for at least another year. I did not make that decision. Frankly, if it were up to me CMR probably would have been gone after the Liberty Bowl. Like Smith Barney commercials used to say, “They earned it.” However, it was not up to me. I am a UGA alum and supporter. I will continue to support the Dawgs whoever the coach is. This year there has been marked improvement so far. I am keeping an open mind and am waiting until the end of the season. That does not mean that when CMR or the staff does something stupid I will not point out it was stupid. That also doesn’t mean that I do not recognize that some of the “hot seat” talk originated from UGA’s enemies who want to instill chaos in the UGA program. There is a certain risk to making a coaching change. That’s a fact. I hope UGA beats the Gators, goes to the SECCG and beats Bama or LSU for the SEC Championship this season. I believe that the Dawgs have the best chance to do that of any team in the East because of how the personnel for the respective teams match up. I am reading things on this blog that disturb me, like that UGA has to win the WLOCP for CMR to keep his job. That is ridiculous. One does not decide that sort of thing based on the results of one game. Let’s win, get to the end of the season and see what’s what. I am fine with CMR being HC in perpetuity if he does a good job. If not, then give somebody else a chance.
