“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
I have seen “fans” wishing he took it. I don’t understand how anyone wants him to go. UGA give the man a raise.

The reason he might have done it, is to get out under Richts shadow to show people he is his own man. Glad he stayed.

Is Beamer still there? if so, then taking the job would be a quicker route to a possible head coaching job.

And I mean no disrespect to VT as a school or even a football program, but Off Coordinator in the SEC is way more valuable to your resume, than the same in the ACC. If UGA were the competitive equivalent of MSU or Kentucky, then maybe I’d revise that statement, but when you’re at a school that’s as competitive as UGA has been (particularly of late) you don’t jump ship to the ACC unless it’s just about money and UGA isn’t going to match. I don’t think that applies to Bobo. His next job will be a head coaching job.

I agree that move would not have made much sense for CMB. Perhaps if VT had tacked head coach in waiting onto the job title, but everyone knows that job belongs to Bud Foster the minute Frank retires.
As stated by Debby, he is deserving of a raise.

It was a message to Hijo. I don’t think he has the pull here to post a warning to AHD and demand me to accept his warning on a blog that isn’t even his because I “disrespected him” there. Do you due diligence next time Hijo.

You are showing an immense inability you have to comprehend what you read. Why are you cluttering up the Senator’s blog with this crap?

And just so there’s no confusion, and while I’d rather not do this here, you’re pissant ways seem to require doing this somewhere other than the places you clearly know I write.
It wasn’t a “warning” and said explicitly as much. But that just seems to go hand in hand with your perpetual reading comprehension issue. The system on SBN works that way, and if you have a problem with it, you can contact them. The Senator’s site doesn’t warrant your petty bitching and you continue to prove exactly what I said it was with your “Hijo” stupidty.
As for the crayon nonsense, if you had any reading comprehension skills, you might be capable of recognizing the author of the “crayon meme” as you like to call it. But that would illustrate a level of intelligence you have repeatedly proven you lack. Which goes right in line with your complete inability to comprehend what I’d said regarding Coach Garner too. But hey, you’ve got your narrative, why deviate that even when reality shows otherwise. Same story, different verse on Fox, reading comprehension and your complete lack of it.
But have fun farting in to the wind. Maybe someday you get over this obsession, because it can’t be healthy.

I have been a member of the Bash Bobo tribe, and I am glad to see him getting offers. He produced big this season with 2 stellar RB’s at his side. I still believe he has held this offense back at times in the past (mainly Richt though). He will not leave Athens on his own accord. The guy loves Athens and UGA (and rightfully so), he has a truck load of kids, and he is paid relatively well. Bobo is here to stay as long a Richt is here. I enjoyed this season and a ton of that is due to the job Bobo did. “Pay that man his money.” GATA.

Man. It looks like a lot of y’all are commenting drunk tonight!
Georgia fans are like a nagging wife… they remember every fault, even years later. Mike Bobo had one… ONE bad game this year. He didn’t have an answer for South Carolina. Otherwise, he has been brilliant. I am not surprised that an offensively challenged team came calling. The only appealing thing about VT would be a chance to see easier defenses and to prove that he’s his own man and not just Richt’s surrogate. That said, he is in a good place. He is at home and comfortable. It is going to have to be a big move up in the world for Mike to want to leave UGA. He has a team that might be competing for titles next year. His stock could be even higher next year. Pay the man.

To be more specific, I would say he didn’t have an answer for Jadeveon Clowney and Devin Whatshisname. Other than that, best offensive season in the history of the program.

So Va Tech thinks they can steal the dean of our business school and our offensive coordinator.

As for Sumichrast, he’s going home to what will be his final job, good luck Robert.

Beamer offered the job as a favor to Richt. This is the easiest way for Bobo to get paid. A few yrs ago Richt offered Foster the UGA DC job (a 4-3 guy while wanting a 3-4 guy) so Beamer could get Foster a nice raise. Just my consp. theory. Bobo, Richt and Beamer all new he wouldnt go just like Foster wasn’t coming to UGA.

Beamer use the UGA offer to get his DC a well deserved raise. At the time the talking heads would mention his low pay relative to other ACC coordinators.
Richt needed help because Adams hates that coaches make more than some teachers so he would not be so easy to talk into a raise, i see McG needing approval for a bog jump in pay. Aren’t Richt and Beamer friends. I remember a story about Mrs. Beamer being in the hospital close by and the Richts visiting often.
Mot saying Bobo isn’t deserving and he would be an upgrade to what VT had this yr.
