Isn't this just a "the cupboard is bare" type of statement? If the group of players he has is one of the worst in the last 50 years, then he has virtually nothing to work with.

Seems like the author is trying to make the rare chicken AND egg argument.

I see your point, but we have all seen a team that had pretty good players and did not play up to their potential. This team has done that against Nicholls, Vanderbilt and South Carolina. Talent does not always equal results. Look at ole Miss and Tennessee this year.

And, yes. Mark Richt had teams that did not play up to their potential, too. (Thought I would throw that out there before somebody else felt the need. )
