which means shite when you spend more than you take in

Operating revenue in a Covid year has nothing to do with the fact that our top money donors are worth Billions of dollars.

The answer is no, but this is the hill upon which he chooses to die. I couldn't imagine being that bad for so long.

then why do you guy's struggle paying the bills.

Perhaps those big money donors know not to invest in a non win situation?

$91m revenue sounds like alot, now subtract the annual buyouts being paid to butch and... and... are y'all paying Pruitt's buyout yet or still paying lawyers to push that out further?


The football program cleared 53,000,000. Jones is paid, infact only 2 staffers are still getting paid not to coach. Pruitt violated the terms of his contract and will not get paid or get a greatly reduced amount in a settlement.

Have you tried the Google machine yet?

If perennial top 10 UGA is in a rut


UGA has just accepted that they are not a championship caliber program and are just content where they are. It’s a safe place to be until the bottom falls out I guess.

This is the same nonsensical spin you always resort to, but you can certainly speak from experience about this.....

I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that Alabama has a 14 game winning streak over the Vols.

No UT fan has ever been able to message a friend using an iPhone after a victory of Alabama.

Bush was still president when UT beat Alabama last.

Because it’s true. UGA is too cheap to higher a decent staff, build elite facilities, put in the effort to win titles. As to the last bit, yes I have. I watched the Vols just be fat and happy after that 98 title. They refused to innovate, promoted from within while trying to just maintain instead of get better. But UGA will figure it out.

No. Your logic is extremely flawed. Acknowledging where UGA is in comparison to our rivals, which is WAY above the Vols in particular, doesnt mean the aspirations dont aim for #1 in the nation.

Your idea of "decent" involves old Mark Richt staffers. No thanks. You should have learned this after watching your previous staffs fail.

Are you claiming that old arse title was worth it to be suck arse for 25+ years?

build elite facilities,


You havent been paying attention recently.

Why are you always so off on your talking points. Just a few years ago we had the 6th highest paid staff in the country. LINK

And UGA just hired a new AD who's putting together a master plan for the athletic department. Something that finally needed to be done.

Look at it this way, Heupel goes 5-7 years and is canned.

That means by 2029-2030 the new Vols coach could have us competing in the East.
