Having watched this retrospective, some observations:

2002 was definitely not Richt's best team, but may have had the best player leadership of any of his other squads. I was really impressed with the player interviews and the rhetoric used. I'm surprised they Stinchcomb never went into coaching.

The amount of key injuries sustained during the 2002 season could be compared to the amount from this season.

Musa was a fricking beast.

JT Wall is a name that I can't believe that I've forgotten over the years. I was always impressed with his tenacity.

Jim Donnan was an elite recruiter. People talk about Kirby walking into a great situation...Richt had some beasts awaiting his arrival.

The Van Gorder departure really hurt Mark Richt. If it's true that he let Van Gorder walk because of a dispute between Van Gorder and Garner (always rumored), that coupled with the promotion of Willie Martinez (defacto nepotism) fully justifies my goodwill towards Richt eroding after the West Virginia game.
