I think it's because they don't have the dream team or a potential nasty revolution of their football program to look forward to like we do. All they can do is sit, wait, and hope for the best from Dooley, Jr. and ol' Back Tat

also was kind of a snipe after one of yall posted that UT was so far ahead of our program. which it isn't.
Historically, we're a better program. Currently, neither really has anything to brag about. I like Tennessee's position more at the moment simply because I like our young players and I think we'll have our coach for a minimum of two years.

if georgia ever gets a coach worth a shite that program is prime to become down right dangerous. but thats a huge "if" with the idiots that run that place

i admitted yall are better historically but as i said there it is isn't as big a discrepancy as vols wanna think.
and i personally think we have more talent waiting but i mean we will all go in circles discussing that

Chilling almost how similar this is to what many Vol fans were saying circa 2007.

Maybe. It helps that Tennessee got to play so much of it this year.

NO WE ARE NOT GETTING FULMERIZED 
see durden, this is why i am so adamant about dumping richt. the vol fans may not wanna let us in on it but thats why they feel so confident, they think we are them 4 years ago

I think new years day, 2007 was the day I got on the Fire Fulmer bandwagon.

From what I gather about McGarity he isn't the "yes man" that Damon was to arse-hat Adams. Adams was basically telling Damon what he wanted form a financial standpoint and not to do anything that might jeopardize a healthy bottom line. But now that he has thoroughly pissed off his fellow buddies up there in the big glass country club on the south side of the stadium, he's stepping back and letting McGarity run the program the way it needs to be run. Don't worry, though, he'll come back to leach off the AD again when things get back to the 2002-2005 level

The day we lost to Vandy in 2005 was it for me. I never bought into the Crompton hype pre-08 or the class of 2007 hype at all. I honestly expected us to lose every single Saturday in 08 after we lost that UCLA game. I didn't even watch some of the games and only attended 3. I normally go to 9-10. There was just no hope or excitement at all.

adams is such a fricking crook. i am glad you heard that because thats my greatest fear and why i am so happy we didn't have an internal hire.
i hope adams feels the pressure because that son of a bitch is as much responsible for the current predicament as anyone. frick him and his GOBN attitude and seeing W/Ls as irrelevant because we bring that frick cash.

if richt gets an extension after we go 7-5 or 8-4, which i truly fear he will, thats going to be my thoughts exactly. ill still go to games because i have too but richt has ruined a beautiful thing he actually created
Posted on 5/25/11 at 7:22 pm to Damn Good Dawg
Maybe, but give Richt some credit: he doesn't "discipline" our players by making them ride around in a cop car. He actually suspends them or kicks them out. It might not reflect well on the behavior of the team (which thus far this offseason has been completely pristine :knockonwood: ) but at least Richt can retain some respect from his players and some fans
Posted on 5/25/11 at 7:24 pm to tylerdurden24
it just seems to little too late. i would love to win and have us a program that doesn't put up with everyones bull shite. we have that but the wins are what matters. no one cares that vandy doesn't tolerate shite ya know?
richt is nice and all but if we keep him there because he is nice and because adams likes him then the program is almost as good as lost.
how about this, what do you think adams will do about perno? what if he tolerates his failures and when he does eventually toss him, and i mean it should be more of an if, then what if he goes and hires a yes man as baseball HC? these are my fears

Adams may be a fat piece of shite that doesn't come close to deserving the privilege of being President of UGA, but he didn't get to that post by being stupid. He's 100% politician. He knows how to recognize when it is beneficial to get his hands dirty and when to lay low. Given how utterly worthless Mark Emmert is as NCAA president, I really regret Adams not getting the nod. He couldn't have been any more ineffective
Posted on 5/25/11 at 7:30 pm to tylerdurden24
i was so sad to see that adams didn't get it. UGA could have really been better off. he lives off of the programs early success and the HOPE making UGA a reputable school. yea, he did some things but his success was so much more circumstantial than anything that fricker ever did.
he is a crook and you are right a pure politician. he knew he didn't have to do shite with the program and as long as our dumb shite boosters think richt is a nice guy and don't care about basketball or baseball then we suffer. this 6-7 year should absolutely raise the troops against adams, shite needs to be done and you cannot just sit on all this cash we bring in and put out this horrendous product.
and it also sickens me how little is put back in the athletic program. we make as much money as anyone but spend far, far less. yea, we have a surplus but cmon put it back into your money maker! its not like they weren't already giving TONS back to the school

Considering our fanbase is incredibly fickle toward baseball, I think Adams will just let McGarity do what needs to be done there. If baseball is winning, the AD is making money and if the AD is making money Adams is happy. Where he gets off is football because all SEC fanbases are incredibly irrational. Wins are the #1 way to earn money, but he can wrench out extra dollars by putting fans in a position to "donate for UGA success". The only thing we as fans can do to improve the football program is show up on saturday and pour money into the program, and Adams can exploit the frick out of that if he wants (and the past few years, he did. I hate for Damon and his family what happened, but to be honest it actually might have benefitted UGA that Damon was told to leave because it put Adams in a position to where he had to please the big money boosters, and a "yes man" wouldn't do it)

i was so happy mcgarity was hired and if you're right and he is there to benefit the AD and not the presidents office then we can be fine.
i think mcgarity is a very smart man but in a real shitty situation. A politician/frick face arse hole president, a real genuine but slipping football HC, a populated state with media out the wazoo (like they will pay any attention to what tech does, everyone knows even ATL is a UGA town), a neglected BBall and Baseball program and to top it all off he has UGA fans. they were content but all of a sudden every team in the Big 6 went out and did what the idiots in athens have been to incompetent to do, win it all. i am glad the fans have this wake up call to see our program underachieve but it doesn't make mcgarity's job harder.
i wanted richt gone after colorado but after UCF i was astonished we would allow him to return but now i will say McGarity was right. fire him and you risk everything. keep him and if he succeeds you were the genius. if he fails then you say hey we tried and you are the patient AD who now has time to make a proper hire. but if richt doesn't shite us a rainbow then McGarity better have had a plan that he started after UCF for finding us a new coach. and i expect the university to give him every available resource to do this. if we find a guy on saban or even patterson's level they better be ready to pay through the nose. its there fault for not having been better at hiring since dooley (and even maybe with dooley)
