Honestly, I don’t know whether to laugh or cry over this.
Georgia’s starting quarterback for Saturday wasn’t known publicly as of Monday morning, but it won’t be Brice Ramsey, if the official depth chart is to be believed.
That depth chart, which was put online Monday, lists the first-team quarterback as Faton Bauta OR Greyson Lambert.
Ramsey is listed third team. He’s the only Georgia scholarship quarterback who has yet to start a game this season. Bauta started against Florida on Saturday, after Lambert started the first seven games.
The official depth chart isn’t always a good guide for what will happen the following game. But the change is noteworthy because it’s a change from last week, when Lambert was first team, followed in order by Ramsey and Bauta.
Got that? The third string guy started the last game. Now he’s listed as a co-number one, with the same guy who was benched for him. Consistency would suggest that makes it Ramsey’s turn this week – assuming, I guess, that his punting duties don’t interfere with his prep time.
I’d say we’re being trolled, but I don’t think the coaches are organized enough for that right now.
Hopefully Zevon is up in heaven working hard on Bulldog Boogie II.

Why won’t they give Ramsey a shot ? I mean, the kid has only been given a series at most in all of four games this year. He can’t possibly be that bad or incapable, can he? He certainly can’t do any worse than any of his predecessors to this point, right? Bauta played more like a walk-on than a scholarship QB on Saturday and they left him in the whole freaking game! Maybe, if our guru/genius OC would let him play and allow him to develop a little game-speed timing with the receivers and get into somewhat of a rhythm, they might just realize he CAN play! If he throws a pick, so what? That’s 75% better than the debacle we witnessed last week…and at least he can scramble a little bit, unlike the 6’5″ statue Lambert…and he probably won’t piss down his leg every time a LB or S gets in his grill a little.
What do we, really, have to lose at this point?
Give Ramsey the start, let him play, and see what happens.

The biggest problem is that Bauta may be our best option. He has very little feel for the position or for the game, but at least he has courage. He doesn’t play scared. He’s competitive.

They do need to get him to tuck it a little more. He had some running room he passed up on Saturday.

What I saw. Saw those two deep sideline passes to Mitchell. I know someone on the Gator defense took out a watch and checked the hangtime on them. I could have covered those two deep ball before they got there. Bet those throws had more air under them than Ramsey’s kicks.
Don’t matter to me who they start. It is beyond belief.
But you can rest assure many fans have had enough of this program now.
Seen Eason twice. He plays out of a spread offense. Not sure what CMR and Shotty could and would do with him. But if I was him I would give them further thought about playing for them. Why? Saw CMR and staff have done lately. Second saw what he did with Stafford. One of the best arms in the SEC in many years. Saw his record and CMR against Florida.
SEC title goes thru Florida. 5-15 does not get you there very often. And now they have a very solid coach who can recruit. Plus their coach can build an oline and system.
Somebody had better start putting some thoughts into where this program goes after this year. Past few years are not good indicators. Probably why many QBs have not dialed in CMR lately.
I’d be hard press to play on the other side of the country so far from home when there are teams out there and in the Midwest who are doing better than CMR lately.

All I know is 3 things changed since last season:
1) We lost our OC/QB coach
2) We lost our WR coach
3) We lost our OL coach
Of all 3 changes, which of them has not been a complete and total crap fest this season?
Literally, none of the WR can progress because they cannot gain enough reasonable time with the QB to work on things like timing and touch. The only 2 WR who are any good are MM (who was already good when not injured) and Godwin (who I think is also just good, but could still use some coaching up).
Think about this:
Godwin has not been in the proper route several times this season (see Ramey’s pick six and the lucky drop vs Missouri where no receiver was within 15 yards of the ball). So I think our WR coach might not be up to par on teaching those WR. Also last year I recall Towns being at least average. Then add on having WR screens where you throw to your only receiver who seems to be able to block.
Our OL who was supposed to be experienced and good, absolutely sucks. They spent all of last season blocking for backs to run 25-30 times a game, so not like we went from pass happy to run happy this year. Why have they regressed, even Chubb could not muster yards vs Southern until he made a statement to the OL. Even then, I am not really sure if there was that much of an improvement in the OL or if Chubb just go so pissed off he willed himself to make yards.
Our new OC, who loves RBs and TEs, seems to not like one of our better options at RB (KM) and do we even have 10 TE catches this season? I was pretty sure we were freaking 3 deep at TE with guys who can catch the damn ball.
Add all three together and you get 12 points in the last 2 games. Hell even vs UT the D and ST scored 14 of our points. Vs Bama, we might not have even gotten past 3 points if Chubb did not break the long run, as we literally had 1 sustained drive the entire game that resulted in 3 points.

Will Mitchel stay healthy? Will the O-Line be able to replace Andrews or will they look like 2014 Florida without him? How effective can Chubb and Michel and Marshall be?
The answers are…no one; Mitchel is the only WR who isn’t hurt or playing like a freshman, so at least he’s healthy; No…they look like 2014 Florida on too many possessions; Chubb is hurt, Michel is hurt, and Marshall’s burst isn’t back.

I agree with your sentiments above, Senator, why even publish a depth chart at this point? Claude Felton is one of the best public relations managers in the business, and at this point he really needs to go into Coach Richt’s office or whoever’s office and say, “OK, I’ll send this out if you insist, but you’re making it worse.”
I have only been part of the Bulldog family since arriving on campus as a freshman in 1998. Before that I was a casual observer and not really anybody’s fan. In all that time… even in the darkest days of the team being booed off of its own field in 1999 or Quincy Carter playing so bad against South Carolina that people still question if he was on the take with gamblers… in all that time, I have never looked at the news coming out of Butts-Mehre and thought that the organization itself looked like a dumpster fire. The “Free Ramsey” stuff hints at discord among the players and a possible disconnect with the coaching staff. What little detail we have of how the team spent the 14 days between Missouri and Florida suggests that a lot of time was wasted that could have been spent getting a third string quarterback ready to go and develop a plan for him. Coach Pruitt’s comments about only losing 7-3 if his defense had made a few more plays suggests that he’s not really sitting in the kumbaya circle with the offensive staffers. The only real innovation that appears to have taken place during the bye week was putting the guy who once was the heir apparent quarterback on top of the punting depth chart which led to the most predictable fake punt of all time (the play design itself wasn’t predictable, but the fact that we were going to fake one at some point during the game was painfully obvious because of who the punter was).
So, yeah. That’s a long post to say that for the first time since he’s shown up in Athens, my confidence in the coaching staff under Mark Richt has been severely shaken. I have no idea what’s going on over there.

I had this dream of Richt giving a press conference today…
“For the past decade, I’ve earned my reputation on the basis of three kinds of decisions: Those made by Jim Donnan, those made by Brian Van Gorder, and those made by Mike Bobo. The fruits of their efforts earned me enough recruits to maintain a reasonable talent base that masked all of my deficiencies. What you see now is what I look like on my own. I have fooled my supporters: You have mistaken luck for skill. You have mistaken the effects of a daily and massive ingestion of Valium for a stable temperament. You have mistaken total apathy for delegation. If I could remember a single moment of the past decade, I’d tell you how this happened. You see…and this is what I want you to understand…I haven’t really done much from the beginning. Was my play-calling predictable? Maybe. But my dose of benzodiazepines was so large that I could only remember a few plays, and I had no idea if they had even worked, which is why I’ve been told I ran the same unsuccessful runs up the middle for two yards over and over. I was so loaded, I didn’t know what down it was, what the defensive scheme was, or who our quarterback was. Finish the Pill was my secret mantra.
There has been a lot of criticism about promoting from within and rewarding seniority rather than performance, and I can explain that in one word: Blackmail. You see, the longer a player or coach has been around, the more likely it is that they’ve discovered me face-down in my office with an empty bottle of pills in my hand. “Moving up the depth chart” was largely a function of finding me in a compromised position. I refused to enforce team discipline for one simple reason: I was very, very high on Valium. Very high. That’s it, honestly.
Because I was not responsible for the past successes, I cannot be responsible for any future successes. Because of the great talent and two coordinators, I honestly thought that the head coach could spend most of his time in tanning beds and still succeed.”
