quote:I want to define "better" using specifics. Better is subjective unless you have a standard to compare two things. I'm not against hiring a "better" coach (I want the best coach possible), but I want to make sure we get a better coach and not just a different coach. If we don't know what we're doing wrong now, how will we know who to hire to lead us to victories in the future? If we don't know, it's just a shot in the dark.
dude..what are you trying to analyze.....hiring a better coach will make our team better....we need to find that guy...
Why are some businesses much better than other businesses?

Yes..but better is "objective" if it results in more wins and improved results...
2 options...1. hire a proven winner if we get that window...
2. hire a new up and commer and prepare for whatever follows..
UGA can be selective and paced about this...
The real question is this...Will UGA put forth the money needed to hire the right guy?

There is something to using data and logic, Foo. There are also times when data and logic don't add up correctly. That is when it is important to use your gut.
This is one of those times.
We can assume that CMR and the coaches on his staff know HOW to coach football. X's and O's, Jimmies and Joes.
What I would say is the "specific" that you are looking for but not finding in your data is this. CMR and staff (Ill exclude Pruitt for the moment) do not have the charisma to inspire their teams to rise above in critical situations.
The defense has been pretty solid this year until late in games when they are gassed because they have been on the field for 40 minutes. This is why I give Pruitt a pass on the lack of charisma. I think the D comes to play every week...that's Pruitt. They are young, and will make mistakes, but the mostly veteran O makes a lot more.
Charisma, Foo...that's your missing piece.
Great coaches have it in metric fricktons
Good coaches can round it up in critical moments at least half the time.
CMR comes home empty handed from the charisma depot far more often than not.
Its a human leadership quality that is missing. Not anything you will find on any data readings.

How about this.
Maybe Richt is simply not smart enough to evolve. Football is not static. Evolve, innovate or get run over. Richt's offense is stale. Further the pool of candidates to run his offense diminishes every year as more and more high schools switch to spread offenses. Richt recruited Cam as a tight end, played Nick at DB and didn't bother to recruit Watson.
It is my opinion that Kathryn's illness profoundly affected Richt. I believe he lost focus. I'm not being critical, except for the fact he is paid a shite ton of money to focus on winning games. He should have retired and become a missionary.
