As a new guy here who has lurked for a long time, you are beyond ridiculous Peter. The man has coached four games with players that are not his.

I could give a frick about Richt and am glad he is gone... How do you like that county Mccounterson?

There's little doubt that there's a learning curve on the coaching front, but I'm thinking we'll see him get a grip on that as we watch the roster shape to his liking, too. Besides - let's say there's a grain of truth to the upperclassmen static undercurrents - that c
I agree other than I think one of the primary things he needed to do was get upperclassmen buy in. I'm not assuming he didn't. I'm not certain he didn't, but to blame the players for not buying into the coach is bullshite in my opinion.

I'm totally with you in the thought that the buy-in from upperclassmen is critical. I've paraded Herman's account of such on here multiple times. Kirby's challenge that he'll have to overcome is to get the results he wants out of the guys he didn't pick. That's coaching + roster.

Your shtick is getting tired very quickly. Kirby doesn't drop passes, he doesn't miss tackles, he doesn't miss field goals and he doesn't miss blocks for Eason. What exactly is he supposed to do differently? You keep saying it's a coaching issue but offer no support for that argument.
This is the same team that got lucky to beat Mizzou, Ga Southern and Tech last year. We should have been 7-6.

Also of note, he didn't even mention the Nichols state debacle.

That wasn’t obvious when Ole Miss was bludgeoning UGA 45-0 in the 3rd quarter last Saturday, or when Nichols State took the lead in the 3rd quarter earlier in September.
Maybe you need to read again.

I don't see any evidence of this lack of buy-in people are talking about. Not being good doesn't equal a lack of buy in.

P.C. at it's finest. Feewings may be hurt, trigger warnings will be necessary, and microaggressions will fly unchecked if people use badspeech that hatemnongers like Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare, James Joyce, Henry Miller, and Samuel Beckett used.

It certainly falls on each individual player to play his best football. Players have made mistakes and they need to take ownership of them. On the other hand, it is up to the coaches to coach the team he has and put them in the best position to be successful. If you think Smart has done so, then I respectfully disagree.

The coddled richt upperclassmen cant handle the heat from Smart. Cant wait until they are gone and replaced by men.

I agree... There may be a few guys unhappy.... but hell, we got a starter from a Bama as a transfer this year...you get 90ish players , a few are bound to be unhappy. That does not mean they are all Richt disciples who don't want to play for meanie weanie Kirbs. Frankly, I think it is an overblown excuse some folks need to justify hope.

I agree to some extent our talent is below par for what a UGA team should have, but do we not at least have close to the same amount of "talent" as Houston? Would we be beating UConnn 35-7? Or are certain coaches able to get the most out of what they have

The numbers will show us the path.

Those are the same players that were supposedly superior talent that Richt couldn't take to the next level. Did their talent leave with their coach in December?

You still think the 2013 class was full of superior talent?

So again...Kirbs doesn't have to coach up this team... Just wait a few years til he gets his players in...you'll see... It's gonna be great.
Please fricking tell me what about my statement you construed as Kirby having no responsibility to coach the team up this season? I'll give you a hint, if you consider it in its entirety, you can't do it. Time to shut the frick up with this bit. It's as tired as you must still be from all those two a days you ran in your "glory days".

I'm still curious how you guys have decided Smart is a failure after four games? Sabin's first year was a mess too and he turned out pretty well.

Saban won everywhere he went except the Dolphins, he already had an establish resume. Waaaaay to soon to compare Kirby to Saban.

It's not a comparison, it's an example. Meyer and literally every succeful coach to run a football team has had rough patches, just relax and ride this out.
