I guess I understand the gameplan criticism, but how much new stuff can you install in one week? and how much have we overrated Bauta's legs as fans? On the few plays he did run he didnt look that impressive.

I agree Richt deserves blame for Schotty, but I was hoping the college game would be a little easier for him to call/gameplan against. That has not been the case. In fact, we make look back and see that this was program changing, in the mpst negative of ways, hire he made.

Oh I agree it's hard to install much more in a week, but if that's the case you can't start Bauta in a system you know he won't succeed in. And I'm sure we have overrated Bauta's running ability, it's just that the dual threat nature is what made him different from the others. I didn't expect him to run all over UF but figured he'd have more than 3 carries to try and make their D account for that.

And yea, I think this is the most devastating hire Richt has made and I was very very unhappy with Martinez, so this is a new low. I think the timing also makes it that much worse. He needed a good hire worse than ever and dropped the ball.

The biggest problem is it's getting to where there's always going to be a large undercurrent of negativity. Keeping Martinez way too long let a lot of that take hold, so that's on Richt. Can you imagine if Richt keeps Schotty for next season...? (I'm still assuming Richt is the HC next year unfortunately)

Fair point but I know we have a number of QB run plays in the book because I always cussed when we called one with Murray or Stafford. Even those every so often would've been something.
