well if you wanna play off like it wasn't a flame then the answer is basically what most the big 6 wants. idk what they can do right now other than what they are. firing bobo would be nice but McGarity refuses to meddle with coaching decisions and you can't fire richt at 10-4
You absolutely can fire Richt at 10-4. I don't understand that reasoning.
Look, the AD has to set the ultimate goal of the program. For the sake of argument, let's say that goal is to win the BCS. The next step is to ask the question: is the staff currently in place going to achieve that goal? If the answer is yes, then keep the staff. If the answer is no, then replace the staff.
Such action may not be popular, but it would be correct. If the guy in charge is not going to achieve the goal, then there is no point in retaining him. Dubose should have been fired even after winning the SEC in '99, and Shula should never have made it four seasons.
Getting rid of Solich was the right choice for Nebraska, even if hiring Callahan was not. The correctness of the decision to fire a staff cannot be confused with the correctness of the hiring of its replacement.

Amen. I've made this same argument many times regarding Fulmer.

and who would UGA hire?
You have to look at that or you could end up in a roadside ditch like Tennessee.

yea that's a good idea for a new AD, fire the dean of SEC HC's (consecutive years at least) who is tremendously popular within the institution and the fan base as well as the media for improving a 6-7 team to 10-4 and an SEC East title after bringing in a top 5 recruiting class and with another on the way.
pure fricking brilliance. look, i hate richt, but if you think Georgia's hands aren't tied then there is no reason for this argument. UGA cannot fire him as much as it should. if he were to blow it next year with 9-3 i could see an argument for it but he's already done too much and is too dug in for some half arse plan to fire a coach who just won 10 games.
