The AJC has some rumblings here and there.

quote:

“No shot now (at the SEC East),” head coach Mark Richt said. “That’s when you’ve just gotta decide how you’re gonna prepare and how you’re gonna perform when the main goal is gone. How are you gonna do now? You’ve gotta keep battling. That’s life.” Richt said his message to the team afterwards was “to be men about this.” “We need to guard our words, because in emotional times things get said, things get tweeted, things get out there that most of the time you regret,” Richt said. “In the heat of a loss like that you can really feel a certain way and then maybe the next day not feel quite the same. We know the season’s gonna continue. It’s not gonna end. We know that we need to get back to work and get ready for Kentucky. I told them that’s football and that’s life. “There’s a lot of disappointing things that happen in fotoabll, a lot of disappointing things that happen in life. You can’t lose your composure, you can’t lose your integrity in the process – or at least damage it.”

The way he said it sounded more directed at the team than at fans which makes me wonder how everything is in the locker room. Can't imagine the defense has been happy with the offense.

I mean I think fans should take his advice too because talking shite to college players on stuff like Twitter is just trashy, but it just seemed like an odd thing for him to say.

This whole situation is just bizarre. I'd love to hear from somebody inside the program (which will never happen) about why and how this happens in key games. Something more substantive than "Richt sucks!" or "He should go and mission to kids in Africa" bullshite. We're not the only team with injuries, poor WB play, etc.

I mean...how can an otherwise functional team which does win games against other good teams every now and then be totally dis functional for stretches at a time or against superior opponents.

Is it attitude, motivation, game planning? It doesn't make any sense how we can count on blow out losses every year. I just don't get it.
