re: Richt v McGarity tension

That is my summation if there is any truth to these rumors. This is exactly why Mike Bobo was not counter offered, if true.....because there was nothing in the programs performance of late to suggest that a significant raise was in order. Yes, we set records of scoring BUT if you look across the CFB landscape you see that no one plays defense any longer....we have all turned into the big 12 to some degree. If Richt has a sore valine because he isn't given the resources that other schools are given the the answer is really pretty simple....either do more with less ( there are any number of schools who do this) or go somewhere else where he would get the kind of support he feels he needs to be successful.

If you look at the body of work you will see several glaring examples of Richt teams being woefully unprepared.....un-motivated against Florida? Blown out in bowl games or simply not showing up at all on a national stage....consistently shitting the bed in games that are significant..... This is as much a piece of Richts legacy at UGA as winning 2 SEC titles, in a period when winning the SEC east in particular hasn't exactly been that difficult. If Richt wishes to make the case that he is entitled to more support from the University then his best bet is to make that case on the field where he was hired to make such statements. If he is basing any ideas of a lack of support from the University on his track record he is simply a complacent employee who has apparently reached the apex of success in his position and knows it. Want more support? Want an indoor practice facility? Then quit having teams that embarrass the University and more importantly the donors who pay the bills. It would be amazing to see how quick support would be forthcoming if the results on the field had been what they should have been....
