For those calling for CMR's head
Those wanting to fire Richt sound like the Republicans wanting to kick out Obama. It all sounds fine and dandy, but they have no solution once you get rid of the problem. Bitch all you want, but there's no one better right now. I'm personally excited to see what Pruitt brings to the table once he gets his guys in here.



Some forget that we basically had to patch together a secondary after CMR got rid of some dead weight. Pruitt will recruit and our D will be stellar.

LOLWUT??

Spoken like a true brainwashed Libtard. I bet you have a T-shirt that says, "Hands Up Don't Shoot" too, don't you?

I'm not on the fire Richt bandwagon, but comparing those who want Richt gone to Republicans and those who want him to stay to Obama supporters is the most clown arse retarded dumb fricking thing I've ever heard.

I'm not even a Republican. I'm a Constitutionalist. Ron Paul was our solution and the Republicans fricked it all up. But you, sir, are even worse. What a galacticly stupid arse comparison.

What I don't see from the fire Richt contingent is suggestions on who would be better and how they would "fix" it


This is my stance on this issue. I like Richt fine. Think he's a heck of a coach. I was furious at him on Saturday and in Jacksonville. That said, unless you can show me someone better that is a realistic possibility at this point, it is asinine to fire the guy. It truly is, as hard as it may be for most on this board to comprehend. While we all want to win 12-13-14 games a year, no great coach is going to be running towards a school that fired one of their most winningest coaches off a 9 win season. Plus we would be competing with Florida in the market which is a substantially better job than Georgia.

But hey, like I said, show me someone better and I'm 100% on board.

I'd like to see these threads after games like the Auburm game this year. It would give that camp more credibility.

Yes he did, but uga fans shouldn't pretend like the offense did them any favors or that the defense is loaded with world beaters. Besides tech generally puts up a lot of yards regardless of who they play.

you are stupid...how does CMR have anything to do with both Chubb and Michel coughing it up on the goal line or HM throwing to MM in triple coverage?

I haven't been on all weekend and this is the top thread when I come back?

geesh...

I would really, really laugh my arse off if this recruiting class falls off sharply due to how stupid these so-called fans are being about firing Richt. I can just see the recruit's saying something to the effect of "stupid fans" or something to the like.

As much as I love UGA and absolutely hate the idea that these "fans" are stating, I actually wouldn't mind if something like that were to happen - the recruiting class to bottom out because of stupid fans. That would be justice.

And only gave up 30 points with an OT. That when the offense went into a shell, 2 freshman RBs turning the ball over, and then Joe Cox 2.0 throwing an INT. Oh, AND A QUAYVON BLOCKING FOR OUR GHOST KICK RETURNER. shite, our defense actually scored a god damn touchdown. GT had the ball far too long and the DL is far too mediocre to expect much better.

You can't put that shite on Pruitt in his first year. Not when the defense forced a huge 3 and out in the 3rd that gave Georgia yet another opportunity to go up on GT despite their mistakes only for the offense ti piddle the frick around and then have a FG blocked.

Were they perfect? Far from it. They knew the B Back was coming and were powerless to stop it. Some players, like Carter, got impatient and started making mental errors. That said, they performed better than Grantham's units that at least had offensive support. Our guys LIVED on the field when our offense either scored in a min or went three and out. I don't like blaming personell exclusively but I think our defenses mistakes lie pretty damn strongly with our lack of depth and our lack of will on the front.

IMO, you cannot blame Pruitt for what happened. You CAN blame Mike Bobo for his offense getting shite on and physically abused on the LOS. You SHOULD blame Mark Richt for having the motivational abilities of a fricking walnut and thinking a squib kick was a dandy idea.

I think it's obnoxious that people use quotations to describe fans because they don't accept your lord and savior.

The anti-Richt noise has been around for half a decade. It hasn't affected recruiting yet. All it does is pit fans against each other where you have the two extremes railing against each other.

Oh look, a brainwashed liberal piece of shite. This may be the dumbest shite I’ve ever read on the rant. The only thing that pisses me off more, I bet my taxes pay for your internet service so you can post this garbage.

Really, DGD? The idea of firing him is beyond stupid. He goes and it would be a safe bet that all assistants, too. And then what? Starting from scratch is awesome.

And you call me a shitty fan? At least I don't bash the program like you, sir.

I have given up thinking he'd be fired. He'll be here as long as he wants pending a total collapse. But I will continue to be critical of him as I have been for years now.

Starting from scratch, sometimes, is what is needed. Cleansing the pallet, starting anew, shaking complacency. If that ever comes it will absolutely be a hard transition but not every program goes into a death spiral like UT.

And I called you a shitty fan if you actually want UGA to falter on the trail so that YOU could be right about ONE man. That makes you a Richt fan, not a Georgia fan. Also, since when is it required to blindly accept something to be a fan? Real fans don't want the best for their program? Real fans don't see issues and want them corrected?

I am fine with people supporting Richt and thinking we are headed in the right direction. What I find absolutely ludicrous are people who think that questioning the program and it's leadership are "bad" fans. Why? Do they love the school less than you because they don't believe in who is in charge? Are republicans less american than democrats? You can support Richt, most do, but you are in no position to deem those who disagree lesser fans. Argue all you want but to call any of our loyalty into question is obnoxious.

what does all that stuff you said have anything to do with players making mistakes?...CMR cannot take the snaps and CMB cannot run the ball...we would have had that game in the bag if Chubb and Michel hadn't coughed it up

This is sooooo much more than one performance. Again, it's not like I watched the GT game and suddenly picked up the banner. I have been chilling on the bus since we lost to Colorado in 2010. There is a body of work that is in question. This isn't just one game of mistakes.

The players absolutely failed to do their job but there were still opportunities to win this game despite that. ST gaffes and a stagnant offense curtailed that effort.

ETA: And before I head to work I want to end on a note that HRD highlighted last night and what I have said in the past. I would love to be wrong. I would love for Richt's performance to force me to eat my words. I would love to be branded a non-believer as Richt hoists the trophy above his head. Instead, I spend year after year doing this same song and dance at the end of the year as more people become critical while others cling more tightly to their defense of Richt as the gaffes continue to pile up.

But Richt can call for a deep kickoff and trust his coverage team that had been awesome all season instead of gift wrapping GT new life. A deep kick likely starts GT inside their own 30, or even a kick out of bounds starts them at the 35 which probably would have been good enough. Instead, we're here staring yet another mediocre 9-3 season down the barrel.

See, I prefer that. We are all fans who want what we see best for Georgia. We all love the program. In these discussions, sometimes it gets heated and I need to do a better job of iterating that I don't discredit all of the fans who defend richt not do I hate richt as a man. I get heated, as we all do, but What I hate most is that I think we have a ceiling right now. And that ceiling is too low in an wnvironment where our competition sees the sky as the limit.

And I also totally understand your point. It's a huge risk. What some of us want could set Georgia back for years. We could experience some rough times. The thing is, I want Georgia to at least try. I want Georgia to show it wants to be the best. I'm not paid the big bucks to make the decisions and as much as Peter buck will clamor for it I won't pretend I know what's happening behind closed doors. But I want Georgia to not be so risk averse and avoid change solely because it could fail. We probably will fail but the key is to keep battering yourself against the ceiling until you finally break through. Not sit there and just hope the wall falls down unexpectedly.

Ultimately, yea, I'm critical of richt and I'll always be. That's who I am. Only coach I don't constantly shite on is Gus Bradley. But I'll admit that I think this isn't the time to fire Richt. Nor is it required. But they have to continue to make changes like they did this past offseason and Pruitt, with his attitude, must remain. I don't want richt fired but I want pressure to be continually applied.

What I don't understand is why can fans not be critical of the head coach? It's okay for fans to be pissed off after a loss and it's okay to want more for their program. I don't want Richt fired but I also don't want to see our program/fans become bigger fans of Richt than they are the program itself. Our problem this year was a lack of depth on defense, a mediocre QB at best, our star RB being out most of the season, and a lack of playmakers at the WR position. I wanna see how these next few years shake out but Richt knows he better at least play for a NC and win SEC title. Our expectations for this year weren't that high to begin with right? But that doesn't mean we shouldn't expect the best for the team we love
