Thank you... It's not message board mealy mouths that run their know-nothing motors like 99% of the people on here who matter. It's the 1% of big money boosters that matter at every school...

Richt is...

126-45 in 13 seasons... basically averaging 10 wins a season for a decade & a half...

One losing season in a transition year in 13 years...

#1 in Top 10 Finishes (SEC teams) (LSU & UGA 8); 4th Nationally.
#1 in Ranked Finishes (SEC teams) (LSU & UGA 11)
#4 in BCS Bowls (SEC teams) (FL 1st)
#1 in SEC Division Titles (Ties w/ LSU at 5)
#2 in SEC Championships (LSU 1st – UGA, FL, AL, AU tied at 2)
#2 in Overall Record (SEC teams – LSU 1st)
#2 in SEC Record (LSU 1st)
#2 vs. Ranked teams at game time (LSU 1st)
#5 vs. Top 10 Ranked teams (FL 1st; AU, LSU, AL)
#4 vs. Ranked teams end of year (LSU 1st; AU, FL)
#5 vs. Top 10 teams end of year (FL 1st; AU, LSU, AL)
#1 in Football Revenue (forbes; USA today; Business Week)
#1 or #2 in NFL players on active rosters (depending on the week)

Yup... Fire him cause he hasn't won a Mythical Natty yet...

...

Any school who fired a guy with these credentials would never find a better replacement...

And here's how UGA ranks in resources vs. the rest of the SEC... (shite outta Richt's control)...

How UGA stacks up vs. SEC teams in RESOURCES:

#6 Head Coach Salary (multiple sources/coacheshotseat.com)
#6 Coaching Staff salaries (USA today salary database;3 other sources – maybe
#7 Amount spent on Football (or maybe #8 behind A&M; AL, AU, LSU, FL, SCe, ARK)
#6 Facilities
(#4 Stadiums; #6 Weight room; #7 Locker Rooms; #7 Players Lounge; #8 Indoor Facility; #7 Hydrotherapy/Training; #5 Offices. Source; saturdaydownsouth series)
#6 Size of Football Staff (maybe #7 – Arkansas could be ahead of UGA)
#7 Size of Recruiting Department (team websites; ESPN reports)
3.75 = avg quality of recruiting classes (3.75 SEC teams had better avg. ‘star’ rating) that year
#12 avg. number of Players signed (only FL and Vandy below us of the 14)
(AL signed 29 more than UGA just under Saban in 6 classes; AU 41 more overall; SCe 34 MORE overall, 20 MORE under Spurrier)

At most, going off his past, UGA could only really "force" retirement and not get a black eye from the situation. Richt and Mack Brown had a similar record at their two programs. However, Mack gave a little more ammo to cause what happened to him.

The other issue is the old phrase, one in the hand vs two in the bush. With Richt, you know what you are going to get and UGA administration doesnt want another UF/muschamp or even worse UT post fulmer situation. Its one thing to have a forced hand in new coach hiring, its another to cause the issue yourself.
