This was a good thread until you showed up. But alas, you couldn't help fricking it up.

As usual, Some faulty logic you continue to display. Enjoying football in no way proves you don't have other things to enjoy. If anything proves a lack of substance in life, it's stooping to trolling a message board.

Porter the biggest difference I see is the OL kids are buying in with Pittman. we seem to managing the roster better and look like we are trying to balance the roster for a change.

I was somewhat ignorant on the topic admittedly. I remembered posters talking about underachieving by Richt and figured that was due to having great talent with no results. He finished in the 8-15 range most years I feel like which seemed to fit his recruiting profile

OSU has had some success in Georgia and hope that continues. Got Emory Jones in 18 so that's a great start

Buckeye you guys will still get talent out of Ga. As will Bama, Auburn, and everyone else. Simply to many kids available. We just never seemed to get our share of our own kids. We also either evaluated or recruited poorly on the OL. Much of the Kool Aid consumed by us is over the last 2 QBs (Eason and Fromm) and this batch of linemen. We are not at OSU or Bamas level but we feel good for a change.

The overall rating is a lot higher, but the difference isn't astronomical


In other words, its a huge difference, but not super huge? Brilliant analysis.

they do it for depth.


When you take scrub players for depth, its because you didnt recruit better players to take.

You are making the same stupid point about the vols 2014 class as you made about the 2013 uga class.

In your case, it's a curse for us all. You consistently make poorly reasoned posts, and then you consistently act like a child when your points get torn apart.

For me, Richt couldn't keep up on the field. He was always recruiting amazingly, but plainly outcoached. Smart might have just put new life into the program, and the kids are more motivated to play.

''Hey, come here with a bunch of 4 and 5 star recruits, don't see the field for a few years and underachieve every year!!''

It's not a good look, recruiting wise. Smart has to pick it up soon, though, this year was really bad but he seemed to have turned it around with Auburn.

I think there were a lot of rookie mistakes by Smart in his first year and a lot of adjustment by the team wanting to and not wanting to buy in to a higher standard of work ethic. Hopefully more talented, more experienced personnel on the lines helps us grow by leaps and bounds in 2017. 2018 is going to be the true measuring stick of his coaching abiility

He had a true freshman at quarterback, too, and I think he's got the program in the right direction. I like his demeanor and his capacity and while we have to wait, the alternative under Richt just wasn't going to get it done, period.

It was the right decision.
