I still do not understand the full reason Jacobs gets so much heat from everyone here


Yep. We tend to be fickle and revise our history around these parts...

Off the top of my head, these are the major things that Jacobs gets blamed for. HOWEVER, he has also received major praise for them as well.

1. Gene Chizik
2. Gus Malzahn
3. Will Muschamp
4. Sunny Golloway
5. The $14m TV

Currently, we selectively forget two great hires, or explain them away as if any old ding dong could have made them happen.

1. Bruce Pearl
2. Clint Myers

I have my own qualms about contract structures and money stuff....but the guy is not a total failure. Also...I still refuse to believe that he unilaterally gets to make any of these decisions.

Women's softball coach is his second best hire and you don't see how that is an issue? No one cares about that sport.


How about Jacobs getting railroaded and giving up the home/away split in the Amen corner? Then that dumbass had the nerve to pat himself on the back to the media. The smart thing to do would have been to end Amen corner by moving the UGA game.
