For the record, I agree with a lot of the points made in Bobo’s favor and think he will probably do fine. I just think that this is likely the best non-HC job in college football, and it seems unlikely to me that Bobo is the absolute best person to fill it.

Maybe I’m also just nervous about the amount of alums and Kirby’s friends on staff. I know we’re at the top of the mountain now, but we’ll fall back to the pack quickly if we’re not picking up fresh ideas and good people from outside the program.

I've said the exact same thing many times prior to today. But now that it's happened and this is our reality, it's just perplexing that so many of our fans' default is to shite on the guy and be negative and think about all the ways and reaons he'll fail and it's a bad hire. Nobody did any of that when lanning was promoted from within, or when schu was promoted from within. People have just latched onto decades old memes and 1 or 2 specific playcalls and that's enoguh to completely brick wall their mind on the topic permanently.

Bobo still has the highest scoring offense in UGA history.
The passing offense was led by Hutson Mason, Chris Conley, Michael Bennett, and Jeb Blazevich.
The run game had Quayvon Hicks blasting holes and misdirections for a true freshman Chubb/Sony and part timer in Gurley.

(Many don't know this... but 2022 had 2.93 rushing TDs per game. 2014 had 2.92 rushing TDs per game. Both seasons led the conference in rushing TDs).

"Modern" offense is still based around the idea that we can punch the ball into the endzone on the ground.
