Giving Todd Grantham a five-year guaranteed contract that pays him $1 million a year says a lot more, my man.
**************************************************************************
UPDATE: By the way, note that Grantham’s making a change for himself at position coach.

To answer the original statement, yes it does say a lot about your program.

Third and Grantham can now be beaten on a 99 yard TD pass indoors too!

Just safeties? That’s unusual… What about the corners? And I thought his experience was mostly with DL and LBs?

Grantham coaching safeties? Snort. I thought he was a linebacker guru.

The last year we are showing a tie on our record is 1985 (Dooley). We tied Vandy in the regular season and Arizona in the Sun bowl to finish the season 7-3-2.

uh…1994 Auburn on the Plains. Snapped a 20 game winning streak. TD actually looked like TD.

Grantham tweeted about how great their S&C staff is at Louisville and then followed it up with a tweet about their indoor practice facility. Not-so-subtle digs at Georgia for sure.

I don’t interpret it that way. I haven’t heard criticism about S&C at UGA since Richt made changes to address it. And coaches all over claim IPFs are good for recruiting. I view it like he’s just trying to sell Louisville.

I do.

Our S&C is not on par with our peers’.
Most schools have much larger S&C staffs and a much more modern approach. If we has Stanford’s S&C staff, for example, we probably wouldn’t have had so many injuries last year.

Do they still break workouts in to upper-body days vs lower body days? Surely not.

In regards to update #2, does anyone actually subscribe to ‘The Telegraph?’ I can’t get in there before that pop up shows and then redirects me to some inane article.
Oh, and screw you Grantham. Should tweet him back a pick of the prayer at Jordan Hare. That would shut him up.

I really don’t think he was taking a shot at Georgia, just trying to pump up Louisville’s facilities; of course, no one seriously believes that those are better than what’s in Athens.

To recycle Petrino’s speaks volumes about who Louisville, too. But their men’s big 3 program have had solid success past 3 years. Nothing against TG, but he needs to get out a map and see what latitude Louisville is sitting at and the annual average weather there. When the Cards can have a stadium with annual seating like Sanford he can talk, ’til be quiet and be happy TG.

Those are some nice looking facilities BTW.
