Dude... throw all that transitive bullshite out the window...
UGA vs Bama SECCG...UGA had a 11 point lead with 5:32 left in the 3rd qtr...Then we get outscored 22-7 in the last 20 min...
Should I continue?? I can list a litany of implosions over the last 5 years...
I'm one of the lucky ones who've seen us win a NC in person, but I don't think I'll see another one. Maybe y'all will by the time your my age.
I'm not impatient, I attended my 1st UGA game in '64 at the age of 9, I graduated from UGA, I've had season tix for 35 years. I lived thru the shitshow that was Dooleys last 6 years, Goffs 6 years, Donnan's 5 years & Richt's last 13...
Frankly I don't need you or anyone else trying to explain anything to me. All I see is excuse after excuse why Richt can't win the big one & I'm not impressed...
Richt is a good coach, he'll never be a GREAT coach...
quote:a 13 point loss vs a 32 point blowout?(a game which we were leading at halftime?) Yea that was quite a difference. Oh yeah, we lost to every ranked team we played 10-4, Oregon went 12-2...
In 2011, Oregon lost to LSU 40-27, the same team that beat georgia for the SECC 42-10...not much difference there, is there?
quote:Notice how you kinda gloss over this game? Oregon loses the BCSNCG(something UGA has never been to)by 3 points on the last play of the game... Oh yeah, Auburn beat the shite outta us by 18 points(after we were leading at halftime)...
In 2010 they lost the NC to Auburn.
UGA vs Bama SECCG...UGA had a 11 point lead with 5:32 left in the 3rd qtr...Then we get outscored 22-7 in the last 20 min...

I resemble that remark.
Seriously though, Dallas, you nailed it; excellent post. CMR is an excellent representative of our university in most regards and a good coach but he has tragic flaws that will probably keep him from ever being a great coach. As I mentioned in my post above, it is telling that Georgia is the only member of the Big 6 in the SEC who has never won a BCS Championship.Posted on 11/5/13 at 9:47 am to davesdawgs

Are you serious with this oregon shite? That program has been outpacing us big time the last half decade. Good god we got some red and black stained glasses here on this board...

We lost more games in '10 than Kelly lost in his 4 years at Ore. plus the new guy is undefeated. Oregon last 4 1/2 years... 54-6
UGA last 4 1/2 years... 41-21
I liked how he just kinda glossed over the fact that Ore. has been to a BCSNCG like that's not a big fricking deal...

As the number of Richt apologists dwindle their arguments begin to reek more and more of desperation and stupidity. No one is even calling for Richt's head (yet) and this guy wants to pretend Georgia has been outperforming Oregon.
I am waiting for some dolt to come and say that oregon only has a "slightly" better record because they play in the PAC...
We live in tampa and orlando they have seriously not gone anywhere outside of Phoenix or Pasadena but somehow WE are the ones who should respect the staff in charge.
Whatever, as my pic said "KEEP CALM AND DO NOTHING"

And we all know that desperation is a very stinky cologne.

The fact you can say that proves just how friggin difficult it is.
In order to get to a NC game at UGA in the SEC, you will have to play a minimum of 4 teams each year that have a NC...and sometimes 5.
Of the 9 SEC NC in the BCS era, only three went undefeated. AU and UT both had overtime and 1 point victories in their years.
Every time I think a new coach is the answer, I look at UT.

Ok, so you think of literally the worst case scenario? The one outlier? You think that McGarity is inept at hiring as Hamilton?
How about Alabama firing Shula? Florida firing Zook? FSU forcing Bobby out? Washington firing Willingham? Notre Dame firing Weis? MSU firing JL Smith? Yea, all those teams are REELING, lemme tell ya.
The fear of the uncertain that leads to complacency is the biggest enemy to any powerful entity whether it's a business, football program, or even you and me. Is the process perfect, absolutely not, but settling for Jan 1 bowl games like they are BCS bowls is downright criminal with a program as wealthy and powerful as this.
And again, cause I keep having to say this, I am not clamoring to fire Richt. Guy hasn't given me the loss where I can use it as a launch pad. But this whole cowering in fear because a completely incompetent staff on UT made not one but 2 absolutely horrible hires is fricking stupid. Have some faith in our AD and program to attract a top notch guy.

Conference titles in the SEC are almost as hard to get as MNCs. Consider that the last team to win the SECCG and NOT go to the BCSNCG was Georgia.
Since then...
Year --- SECC --- BCSC
2006 --- FL ---- FL
2007 --- LSU --- LSU
2008 --- FL --- FL
2009 --- AL --- AL
2010 --- Aub --- Aub
2011 --- LSU --- AL (played LSU)
2012 --- AL --- AL

I'd love to see CMR as AD, but sadly it'll never happen. They's pygmies to be savin'!

But it isn't just UT.
AL had to go through the Dubose/Franchione/Price/Shula period (8 years) to even get to Saban.
I also point to USC (Kiffin?), Notre Dame (Davie, Willingham, Weiss) USCjr (Holtz)
All storied programs with tons of money and recent coaching changes that didn't work for them. Assuming the next guy, or even the one after that will give us a better result is wishful thinking.
Posted on 11/5/13 at 11:29 am to RealDawg
Notre Dame definitely made mistakes along the way so I guess that was a bad example but Bama and USC had sanctions they also had to deal with in addition to a coaching search.
I guess I am also willing for Georgia to risk mistakes and maybe a half decade of mediocre football if it means we can keep swapping staffs until we find one that can fully reach the precipice that our program is beyond capable to reach.
Instead I feel like that Georgia is a Ferrari and that Richt is driving 55 mph in the right lane. If anything the break up of complacency that has permeated the football program would be good, almsot like a cleansing fire. Consistency is great and all but this complacency is going to render Georgia the next Auburn until we win like they did 50 years later in 2030.
That all said you have definitely made a solid point in going further back in the coaching searches. I guess it's just how willing everyone is to get burned in order to reach glory if that is to be had.

The reality of the situation is no matter which side you land on, it's that CMR(unless he absolutely shits his mess-kit)is gonna be here till he decides to move on. He wins enough & is well liked enough by Don, Billy & the other 4-5 UGA mega-boosters and the members of the UGA Foundation board...
I rarely post in these types of threads cause it's useless, but it gets tiresome when someone continuously tries to push CMR down my throat, especially with some of the reasoning in this thread...
Once again, CMR is a good coach but isn't a great coach...

I am definitely not in the boat that says Richt can do no wrong just because he found Jesus.
However, I personally enjoy winning most of our games and travel to just about every one. Going through 3-4 years of complete crap is just not worth it to me.
I want us to remain one of the top 10 programs in the country and can only hope the football gods allows us that one year.
