re: Fox Sports writer/UF grad: Muschamp and Auburn close to a deal
Posted by Fishwrap Monger on 12/12/14 at 2:15 pm
Talking with a UGA grad/coworker of mine this morning, who sounded almost disappointed that Pruitt turned out well for them this year. His thinking was that Pruitt is the type of coach that will be in-line for a HC job somewhere in the not-too-distant future, and will bounce at the opportunity… dism...

True. And the whole conference has reaped benefits, including S. Carolina. It's one of many reasons the whole program has seen remarkable improvement under Spurrier....

Not thrilled about Dabo's reply... he didn't really need to say anything at all. It should be no surprise that Spurrier says dikcbag things to get a rise out of people, and Swinney continues to make himself a pretty easy target for that.
Dabo's best asset is as an emotional motivator (the anti-Ri...

I feel that it's the media... the media are most upset at themselves for criticizing Clowney. If they had shown some restraint, they could have milked this Clowney-is-lazy thing for months on end. As it stands, they blew their wad week 1 and will have to invent all new headlines about him for week 2...

re: UGA/Clemson Poll Problem
Posted by Fishwrap Monger on 9/6/13 at 8:21 am
Once again the SECr surprises me. By now, I thought at least one of you would say that UGA deserves to fall out of the top 25 completely after losing to an ACC team.
Seemed like a softball question, honestly....

Another question for you, SECR peanut gallery:
Do you think UGA's shaky situation at kicker could actually turn out to be an advantage?
Vegas thinks this is going to be pretty high scoring game. Give the UGA offense 4 downs in what would normally be field-goal range, and it may result in some ...
