Re read my statement, grandpa. This time use your spectacles.

All over the place? I knew that CMR was gone and why. And I was thrilled with the CKS hire and am behind him 100%. So will you be one day soon. But you'll be a band wagoner and the rest of us, who know shite from shinola about CFB, will have always supported him.

This is the direct quote I was referencing:

He knew at the beginning of '15 that he would be back at Miami.


Ok. back it up. How in the world did Richt know he was going to be in Miami before the 2015 season even started?

I already am, however you haven't taken the time to look at my posts because you have been too busy trying to make everybody think you are an insider with special knowledge.

ETA

Oh. And before you deny this is what you said:

Complete horseshite...God you're pathetic. You really think anyone on

Ok, Cobb. I used my spectacles and even copied and pasted your statement for you. You going to explain how Richt knew he was going to be back in Miami before the 2015 season even started?

I can't be the only one curious about how Richt knew it....and how you knew he knew it.

Miami is a perfect fit for Richt....soft schedule in a soft conference. Perfect





This is true....and I wouldn't be surprised if Miami isn't undefeated. There is no question that Mark Richt can coach. He proved the first 5 years at UGA that he was a coach as good as any in the nation....it is the time period after the 4th or 5th year that is questionable....he simply doesn't have the drive to win big year in and year out...there is a reason he was a second string QB...he doesn't have the drive to be #1. He was done at UGA....like most people he grew complacent in a very comfortable position and didn't take that extra step needed to prove himself everyday....like he is now doing at Miami....


Employees need to either be promoted regularly or let go....they grow stagnant if left in place for extended periods of time....

Okay...You're being a bit dramatic. He played behind Jim Kelly. Will to win can only overcome so much of a talent gap. I mean...that's the excuse this board has given the last three games under Kirby, right?

He was also on a roster with Jim Kelly and Bernie Kosar, so there's that.

There are a lot of things wrong with their line of thinking. This is not the same ACC. It has become a solid conference and is no longer the weakest of the P5. Louisville and Clemson might be the best two combination teams from any conference. North Carolina is solid. Florida State is solid. That's four pretty decent teams. They drop off rapidly after those four, but it wouldn't surprise me if GT didn't end up pretty decent, too.

I'm with you though, in wondering what his playing days at Miami has to do with coaching ability. I mean, Saban played at Kent State, I think. Does that mean he doesn't have the drive to be a coach....I mean, he couldn't make it as a player on a big time program, right?

Richt was never a bad coach. He was (and is) a great coach.

He was fired because he went 10 years without an SEC Championship.

Not 3 years, not 5, not 7.

10 years.

If Nick Saban went just 2 years missing the SECC at Bama, there would be rumblings of his dismissal. In 5, he'd be gone.

Great coaches don't go 10 years so average. Call him good for accuracy sake.

Meh. People talk about Petrino as a "Great" coach but what has he really ever accomplished over the last ten years?

What about the dude up in Michigan? What has he accomplished?

Everyone talks about Oregon as a great program. How many NC's has Oregon won in the last 10 years? Zero.

I'm standing by Richt being a great coach, and I was also ready to see him go.

Petrino is an interesting case. Richt would have been crap at Louisville or ark. Petrino has taken crap programs to the top 5, and that is evidence of greatness. He would win big at a bigger school like bama, Texas, Uga, fsu, Michigan.

I understand this, and have posted several times that I came to realize that he could not get us over the hump. I have no problem with the Smart hire, and have said many times that I was happy with Smart.

My ONLY problem is when people get outraged at any kind of criticism aimed at Smart.

Nicholls was horrible. Ole Miss was horrible.
When anybody dared to criticze Smart some on the board wanted to put the blame on Richt.

No matter how it is framed up, Nicholls cannot be put on Richt.

Ole Miss can to a certain point, because we are thin at certain positions....but certainly not to the tune that Ole Miss beat us by. If Richt is roundly criticized for Alabama last year, then Smart should be criticized for Ole Miss.

We all know why Richt was fired, but we should all realize that Richt is not here and was fired for doing some of the same things that Smart is doing now. Not having the team prepared, time clock management and so on.

Not sure there would be rumblings if Saban missed the SECCG 2 years, though. 5? yes.

I would say he is, and was, a very good coach. In my mind, great wins a National Championship, and even then one has to see the entire body of work.

Actually, these are all good...no, excellent points. I do believe a great coach needs to win a National Championship. I think the coaches you mentioned are just over hyped. But, people do tend to put the great label on them....particularly Harbaugh, and he hasn't even won his own conference. EVER. Not at Stanford. Not at Michigan. Yet, most on this board would have taken him in a heartbeat over Richt.
