re: Richt v McGarity tension

What has not been brought up in this discussion is that it isn't just a money gap, which is gone into to great effect in a red and black article form a couple of years ago.

Everyone keeps talking about equal talent. That may be true WHEN IT IS ON THE FIELD. I would love someone who keeps talking about equal talent go back through the recruiting classes and mark all the games that were missed due to suspension, dismissal, lack of over signing, and injury (which does appear to have something to do with a less than stellar SC dept). Considering that no other top SEC program has had to deal with the standards that UGA has put in place for its football staff, then that is just another disadvantage we are forcing on the staff.

Germandawg- who were talking about the 2012 SECCG. The team getting tired in the second half probably had nothing to do with the fact that there were about 60 guys on scholarship for UGA by that game compared to 80+ for Bama? There is a reason that a 15 scholarship loss is considered a huge NCAA punishment to a program.

A pretty good source on 247 just spelled it out that UGA requires 17 core credits for admissions, which is 5 more than Auburn and 3 more than Bama. You don't think that might make some difference on the recruiting trail?

While I don't think this coaching staff has been perfect, they are constantly told to work from behind the eight ball. Seriously, there is a reason Spurrier licks his chops at getting to play UGA at the beginning of every season because there will be without a doubt significant losses in personnel due suspensions and off season dismissals.


IF all these other disadvantages were evened out by the AD, then I would be fine with cleaning house, blowing up this recruiting class, and moving on, but you guys who think that is happening are just fooling yourselves.
