and if we had an experienced head coach with a good track record in mind, it would have at least been a decent gamble. This was a way long shot IMO, and given this choice I'd have kept Richt.


And just exactly how does one become an experienced head coach with a proven track record. The aren't just born head coaches. They are promoted and given the chance to prove themselves. Give Smart a chance and we'll all find out but keeping Richt was like staying in a bad marriage, both sides are miserable. You've got to admit Richt had gotten lazy. He's even admitted it in interviews about how "reenergized he is" at Miami. We're 4 games into a season. Jeez, give it a frickin break.

He realizes that. But think about it. What other major college can you name that seems to always hire an assistant and make them a head coach? I can think of one other....Auburn, and it has not been working out for them.


Don't get me wrong, I like Smart and I THINK he will grow into a good coach. But, in an effort to save money Georgia tends to go cheap and hire assistants. I really like the Kirby Smart hire, but I don't know if it is because I am caught up in the mindset of hiring the hot young coach, or if am certain he will develop into a great HC.
