CMR is mediocre at best.

CMB was an ok OC I suppose and I wish him well at CSU but who was responsible for Gurley carrying the ball only 13 times against USC???

Do we still pay a character coach?

Why does anyone think we can hire Mullen away?? I think the money is so big in the SEC now that any team can save their HC if money is the issue.

Frankly I would welcome Muschamp. His defensive numbers at UF were great.

Tell you another and don't flame me too much--Tommy Tuberville. He doesn't do anything but win every where he goes. He is old but I bet he would win and win quick.

As easy as our schedule has been the last 5 years it is shame we have not done any better. Take the patsies out of out schedule and we have not been competitive for some time.

CMR's has never impressed me as being excited to coach at UGA. He has other priorities it seems but can't walk away from the money. I don't think any other SEC would fire their coach to hire him.

Thank christ you aren't involved in decision making for the UGA athletic department.

Tuberville also established himself as one of the best big-game coaches in college football, as his teams won nine of their last 15 games against Top-10 opponents since the start of the 2004 season


Compare CMR to that stat.

Tuberville won at Ole Miss, won at AU--5 times in 10 years he won the SEC west, won at TT, and now has won the conference his first year at Cincinnati.

He has a record of turning around teams and that's what we need.

I am sure there are other candidates that would work but Tuberville would be a good hire.

Michigan is paying their Head Coach $2m more than UGA pays its entire staff...

Well CMR was the second highest paid coach in the conference. Money is not the issue at UGA.

What exactly did Tuberville win at TT? Besides beating an overrated #5 WVU in 2012, the answer is nothing. What has he won at Cincinnati? They got obliterated by a horrendous VT team on Saturday.

Huh? TT coached in two sec title games. If we're gonna count having the same record as the divisional champ as "winning your division" then Richt has "won the east" seven times.

"As Adams passes the baton to Morehead, he told the full board: “It’s going to take some discipline from this board moving forward and from the administration. There are some places that are running headlong toward the cliff. Assistant coaches salaries, incredible money being spent on revenue sports. It will, in my opinion, it will take some continued self-discipline for us to stay in the black.”"

This was posted on this site, Summer 2013, as part of comments from the 2013 UGA AA Board meeting, which is where budgets and capital expenses are formally set.

It says nothing about Championships... The goal is to stay in the black.

Yet, as others have commented, we have this....

"Those cash reserves are projected to be $65.3 million after $6.2 million goes to previously approved projects to Sanford Stadium, Foley Field and various scoreboard upgrades.
Georgia has benefited from a decision made last fall to begin moving $30 million to the UGA Foundation as an endowment. With the stock market thriving, that produced $450,000 in investment earnings by the end of March, according to treasurer Tim Burgess."


I really didn't realize the depth of this until I started looking at the numbers this past year. We are committed to profit, while not adding to the proliferation of coaching salaries and capital expenses.

...and money I gave to the UGA AA was donated the the GA foundation... I already give to them. Next time Brad and Travis come to hit you up for money to help pay for support our student Athletes, just tell them you are just gonna cut out the middle man and send it all to Hilda... fricking assholes...

Take it for what it is worth, but my roommate has a friend who works in the AD and talks to lot of players. He spoke to him today and confirmed that the tension is a real thing that the players are aware of as well. A lot of it stems from Richt fighting to pay his assistants more and McGarity not doing anything about it. ADGM was open to give Bobo a raise but not going to give him close to Pruitt money which is what was needed to make him consider sticking around.

Was in on a conversation with the two of them early in the season. Saw no signs of tension at all. Guess it could have changed later.

Next time you see him, ask him why we should give him money so he can donate it to the Ga Fund...

It would appear that every other athletic program at UGA is losing money except football. They are seeing 300% profit returns from football, put in 26m, get 77m back.

And just a note... Coaches that do more with less are not winning championships.
That underfunded team from the ghetto winning big because of their awesome coach, that shite is not reality!
Also good for you if you can do more with less, you will continue to get less as a reward.
Final note, GT spent more on recruiting annually until 2012, we just barely passed them since then.

Last but not least, to suggest that MR is still coaching because he can't leave the money, your just Brain dead.
He is worth more than 50% of all NFL coaches.

Bobo has basically said that him leaving had nothing to do with money:

So you can't blame ADGM on this one like many would like to do. It was just Bobo's time.
