| Mark and Katharine Richt headed to mission in Honduras (Posted on 6/20/11 at 4:37 pm)
LINK
quote:
We have officially entered the dog days of summer as Georgia’s football coaches are trying to squeeze in a little vacation before the grind of recruiting evaluations and preseason preparation cranks up in earnest the first of July.
Georgia coach Mark Richt has, in fact, left the country. He and his wife Katharyn have embarked on a Christian mission to Honduras with the World Vision organization. You may recall my report late last month that Richt, after reading the World Vision book “The Hole in the Gospel,” decided to sell his $2 million Lake Hartwell property and use some of the proceeds to help the extremely impoverished. This trip is a result of that decision.
In the meantime, AJC reporter Steve Hummer is following the Richts on their five-day adventure to Central America. Hummer will be filing daily reports that you’ll be able to read here on AJC.com and he will chronicle the whole trip in a story that will run in the Sunday paper. So stay tuned for that.
In the meantime, the Georgia football team remains in full grind under the watchful eye of strength and conditioning coordinator Joe Tereshenski Jr. Their voluntary workouts remain closed and Tereshinski is declining interviews until “sometime after July 4th.” But I happened to run into him over the weekend and I’ll just say he has been working the Bulldogs extremely hard and has some very positive reports about what they’ve been doing.
as much as he drives me nuts as a coach and as much as he gets all the bammers, turds, barners and co' panties in a wad about oversigning no one can question he is a good dude.

we could hire a scientologist and i wouldn't give a shite. actually heard chris petersen was a scientologist. hell, if they win idc.
what pisses me off is when richt's supporters defend him because he is a christian. no part of the job description requires we hire a godly man

I always thought he was a good dude.
But,
There has been enough destruction and tragedy in the USA that I wish he'd have done something here.
And, that whole Jeebus thing.....

Two of my best friends from high school (they were sweethearts in high school and married in their early 20's) are missionaries in Honduras. I'm happy that Mark and Katharine are going there and I hope my friends meet them.

basically what he is saying is that you or probably no one else on here really knows Richt.
