you really like rolling out this "greatest of all time" schtik dont you


I love how you ignore the specific things I cited which are true, (total wins and more importantly, 2nd best winning percentage) and instead try to put words in my mouth. I never said he was the "greatest of all time."

There is an enormous space between saying his "trademark" is letting games get away by losing them to "greatest of all time."

I've lived through the Onofrio years forward till now, and I can tell you it was not this good. You have to go back to the sixties to even find someone comparable to him with Devine.

HCGP is not perfect but he is far from bad, and he restored the program back to relevancy from a lot of years of futility (since 1970).

I want the program to take the next step also and win a national championship, but my gosh, give the man and the program some respect. We just won the SEC East in our second year and finished 5th on the country.

There are two trolls working in this thread. One is subtle and one is not.

So you claim to remember the Onofrio years do you, well there's a coach who can claim some signature wins, you know like Notre Dame, Alabama, tOSU and USC. Since he didn't have the luxury of going to a bowl game with a 6 win team, he might not have the number of wins but he played the competition well and produced some good NFL players too.

I love all the cherry picking "we won X number of games in Y years" that the fan boy crew will exhort to along with Gary, it always makes his bowl trophies seem at least a little meaningful. "Well we have more first round draft picks in 5 years than just about anybody", that's great Gary, why haven't you managed to win more than one big game with all those players?

As TBTB points out, there are plenty of good programs that have come out of relative obscurity with the right coaching, so Pinkel hasn't pulled off some never before seen miracle. It's funny people like you worry so much about "his respect" from Tiger fans, why don't you head over to the rant and demand the rest of the SEC show more respect? Maybe because you know they'll laugh your clown azz off the website. huh

Trolls are trolling you. In 2012 they were all over the place making claims that were idiotic. Then last year they shut up for while until losing in the SEC Championship proved they were right again. Winning by only 20 points and poof - they are back in full force. Complaining trolls complain. It's what they do to get attention.
