re: Time to admit we lost a lot when we lost Pittman/Chaney

I've always thought that just judging by how dynamic our offense can be at times, followed by some of the most bone-headed drives you've ever seen, can we really put 100% of the blame for offense ineptitude on the OCs?

I've definitely been a Chaney hater but Georgia seems to be doing A-OK with him calling plays, because you know Kirby aint calling them(right?).

Seems like Bert constantly tries to override play calls, we just seem almost schizophrenic on offense. We've seen flashes of brilliance from both OCs, but when the pressure is on, we get anemic and predictable and/or batshit insane. Anybody else got that vibe?

Georgia fans are just as tired of his shite as we were. He hasn't changed, still makes completely stupid playcalls all the time, just has a LOT of room for error with the way their defense is this year. Not to mention UGA's O-line is mowing over literally everyone they play.

Hai!

Pretty depressing hearing Pittman turned their oline around that much in 1 year though.

ohhh for pete's sake...

He didn't recruit ... good lord, forget it.

I have a hard time finding fault in Richt. Guy's got Miami relevant for the first time in nearly 20 years. Always thought he just got turned into the goat at UGA.

I think turned into a goat is a stretch. He had plenty of time to win a championship...and thats what big time programs do. I took this from a miami board, so take it for what its worth:

Worst class ever was #11 on 247 and #15 on rivals. both better than our best ever lol. People around here talk a good deal about how we shouldn't settle for mediocrity. UGA is sitting in a talent loaded state with rabid fans and tons of resources, while watching two of their biggest rivals (UF/Aub) plus bama and LSU all bring in the titles.

Richt is a good dude and extremely likable. but you can't blame georgia fans for being over him....and they are looking justified with what the kirbs is doing in his first 2 seasons as a coach

Yet the point most have said regarding Pittman , was that he didn't recruit well enough. Very few complained about his coaching.

And now... he doesn't have to recruit much at all, with all of the talent in GA and surrounding it immediately.

He did not recruit the OL this playing this year for the most part. He would never recruit well enough here to do that well.

But most likely, nobody else will either.

I think our problems still start at the top with Bert to be honest. Dude doesn't know what he is doing... Alvarez kept him in check.

Bert’s success at Wisconsin and the fact that they haven’t missed a beat without him throw back the curtain on how heavy of an involvement Alvarez maintains in the football program.

He’s coached in two bowl games since he retired for God’s sake, one of which they won. Could you imagine Broyles doing that?

When you look at Bert’s iffy coordinator hires, his complete mismanagement of the roster, and general air of cluelessness, it’s pretty apparent that he needed and was getting a ton of direction from Alvarez. The Markuson firing had Alvarez’s fingerprints all over it.

Bert’s career is like fast food advertising. You see this beautiful, mouth-watering big burger on TV that looks like it could feed a village, but you get to the restaurant and you get this smashed up, soggy garbage the size of a half dollar and you remember “oh yeah, someone spent a ton of time making this shite look good so I’d buy it.”
