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

Most of the criticism doesn't seem to be over the decision to start Bauta but rather the decision to run the same gameplan when that isn't Bauta's strength. He wasn't even put in a position to succeed.

Granted, I don't think Bauta running more would matter with the level our OL is playing at.

Also, there is nothing in Schotty's past to suggest he would do anything at all. I get Richt wanting a pro style OC but if you can't find one that's competent you either adapt or do it yourself. It's not like Schotty tore it up everywhere else and is suddenly struggling. That hire is 100% on Richt. Reminds me in a way of Tubberville and Franklin in 08. At a certain point you end up being held responsible for your hires.
