Deboer = Mark Richt

Another Saban or Bear ain't walkin' through that door. Coach can't prevent 3 turnovers. That's on the players.

KD didn’t turn the ball over. Oklahoma has a good defense and our guys kept turning it over.

KD decided that Talty would be the kicker this year and keeps running him out there for God only knows what reason.

When it comes to following up the greatest coach of all time, we could do a lot worse than a Mark Richt equivalent. Richt was a solid coach for UGA even if he never got over the hump. 2 SEC titles, six appearances, 7 top 10 finishes, 9 seasons with 10+ wins.

Not every coach we hire is going to win championships. In fact the majority have not. Look at other programs after legends retire or leave, they often crater. A Richt-level successor would be well above the norm.

I think DeBoer is better than Richt. But even if he’s just the same, and we eventually move on for the right hire, that’s a win for getting somebody to follow Saban.

That’s not to say people shouldn’t be upset at today’s results. I certainly am. But I’m not exactly eager to fire what looks to be a pretty high level (even if not elite) coach and risk getting the next Mike DuBose. If Kirby or Ryan Day gives our AD a call? Sure, pull the trigger. Until then, let’s give our guy some time.

Post less.
