And you think that was all Richt's fault. How many of those NFLers never had to sit out multiple games because of punishment meted out by administration? How low were some of the scholarship numbers some years due to having to kick out players because the administration said so and the fact they said no over signing? Guys, go look at what the UGA administration has imposed on its own coaching staff and the go look at how the FSU administration acted or all the crap covered up by Florida under Meyer during his championship runs. Basically, the UGA administration has been playing checkers while everyone is playing chess, but yeah, blame Richt for trying his best to keep up.

Yeah as the head coach you get the blame for it all. JHC didn't even fail a drug test but just admitted to it, and bam suspension. UGA has the strictest drug/alcohol rules in the SEC and for the most part suspend/sit guys for games when other teams normally wouldn't. Richt can have a say in all of this, but you guys act like it isn't Richt's fault at all in how this stuff is handled. Plus you guys act like all Richts problems are b/c of the administration. Did the administration make Richt squib kick last year vs GT? Did it make UGA on 1st and goal w/ Gurley, call the play with Hutson Mason? Does the administration constantly tell Richt to lose to an inferior team (Tenn, Vandy, Mizz, UF, GT, Colorado, UCF, etc) or to have told Richt to have a losing record vs ranked teams in the past 5 or 10 years?

Plus not all the NFL'ers were suspended like you seem to believe. A lot of them were never suspended, and only a few were suspended multi games. AJ Green and Gurley seem to be the only ones with a long suspension.
