that there appears to be no urgency or focus to fix any problems is what is worrisome.
When you've pretty much lost the Senator at GTP, Richt is doomed....
He doesn't say this kinda stuff lightly, he's always supported the staff... Here's a few well thought out paragraphs & plenty more in the article...
quote:
Those of you who thought starting Faton Bauta was a sign of desperation on Richt’s part couldn’t have been more wrong. Alarmingly, it was a sign of something even more disconcerting.
Cluelessness.
I’ve heard my share of rumors about how Richt has managed the program of late. I don’t know enough to say whether the story of a somewhat detached CEO approach is true. What I can say is that it really doesn’t matter if the program has slid because Richt isn’t involved enough in the day-to-day details or because he is. The real problem is the stunning number of details that are being ignored on a weekly basis.
“Stunning” is the right word here. Georgia is doing things we haven’t seen in a while. It’s lost three of its last four conference games, and it’s not a stretch to think that, but for a Kenneth Towns touchdown saving tackle, it could easily have been a clean sweep. This past Saturday, the Dawgs were held to three points for the first time ever under Richt. Those aren’t indications of a well run football team.
You know what else isn’t an indication of a well run team? Setting players up to fail. I’ve already had my say about the ill-advised manner in which Bauta was prepped and the game plan that didn’t do him any favors, as well as letting a kid like Reggie Davis continue to do what he’s already shown he’s not capable of handling. Who sits back and lets shite like that happen without thinking about the consequences? Or, just as sadly, supports decisions like that?
There is a certain amount of irony here in how we’ve all been a little guilty of not seeing the forest for the trees. I know I have. Georgia is a serious mess this week, not because Richt isn’t fiery, or because his players aren’t good at handling adversity or because of undersigning. Georgia’s a mess because it’s a rudderless ship. It’s losing and its head coach has no idea right now how to regain direction.

This is a great point and I have said this in earlier posts. Georgia is up shite creek because Richt isn't as involved as he used to be, IMO.
We are about to find out if Mark wants to keep his job or not. Mark is capable of winning the rest of his games, but if we look bad the rest of this season, he has definitely lost it.

wow, reads like there is lack of focus and urgency to me. Guess the Senator has heard the same.

GTp is a good read, and his articles are usually very well-written and thought out....but at the end of the day he is still just a blogger. Hell he used to post on the old onlineathens forum. So excuse me if I don't hold his own opinions above any other person with access to the internet.
Fact is, if Rome and Davis make a couple of catches, the decision to start Bauta doesn't look bad at all. He didnt play that poorly. And agian, what is the problem with giving another QB a shot at starting when youre other 2 QB on the roster haven't shown anything to warrant supreme confidence. BAuta starting didnt lose that game for us. Poor oline play, 5 turnovers and poor offensive playcalling did.
If anyone needs to be catching heat, it is Schotty. And yes, I do throw some blame on Richt for bringing him, but I could see why Richt would think he would be a good fit. However, he has been an utter disaster at gameplanning and situational play-calling. Hopefully the heat Richt is feeling will trickle down to Schotty at the end of the year and we will part ways
