If we're willing to dish out $1.6M we need to put an add on Monster and take all comers. Deeprig needs to dust off his scribblings and get down to BM...

...let's do this...

I believe GGA1 is the main uga plane.

Shite, while we're getting in an arms race with Bama, let's make a run at Pearl too. Stare the gumps in face and make it rain.


This is a race Georgia has never shown interest in winning. I would love to have Bruce Pearl. :(

So - after Smart and Pruitt work our offers into massive pay raises at their current schools, who is our third choice?

Obviously they're on a different level of competitive (crazy) but at some point somebody over there is going to realize that Saban is their bell cow and, while integral, Smart can be replaced.

The flip side of all of this is I wonder how long before the Bama AD tires of Smart entertaining overtures by UGA every 5 years (much like we had to deal with Garner and Auburn). They have to know that Kirby only lingers around T-Town in hopes that he can snag the Bama job. But how long and how much are they willing to pay the guy to basically wait around for an interview?

You guys stop with all the Pruitt shite.

DC for 1 year. Gifted top tier players. And FSU is a 4-3 defense and we're not changing back to 4-3.

To be fair, the last time general consensus was Smart verbally committed and was flipped at the last minute by the midget lucifer. That probably surprised everyone.

I would hope that the powers that be know who are realistic targets prior to starting this whole circus. Also, I don't buy ADMG's "I'm not involved" for a minute. Guys like that can't afford to be embarrassed. You can bet your arse that calls have been made and they already knew how this would play out (for the most part).

I would hope that's the case anyway....

And waist the last conceivable year of Gurley/Marshall on rebuilding/re-learning on defense? God, I hope not.

Only because of the perception that we had "lost" on our higher candidates. It'll be the same as this year...ANYONE we get who isn't named Kirby or Pruitt and fans will be bummed because it's not one of those guys. Same as 2010, Grantham was a fine candidate and at the time was a great hire (obviously hindsight says differently), people were only upset because they put ALL of their hopes on one guy, who we didn't get.


I disagree. There are tons of great candidates with great resumes. Pruit and Smart are great adds but there are tons of other guys with proven resumes. If we miss on those 2 we need to have good fall back plans. An internal promotion of Kirk is unacceptable.

To be honest, I'm not sure our defense could possibly be any worse than this year, regardless of if we're transitioning to something new or not.

And while I understand the schemes are fairly different, it's still the same players making plays. As long as the 11 on the field are actually properly coached up, I don't think it matters what defense we run, we'll be far better off in 2014 than 2013.

Honestly, this feels like the last DC search we had. Gotta feeling Bama will match and prob beat our offering.

After a good night's sleep I woke up with the same feeling... The euphoria & Disneyness has worn off (kinda like a 72hr bug). I'm pretty much back to "I'll believe it when I see it"...

Hope we have a solid contingency plan.

I guess as long as I don't have to watch Amarlo Herrera chew another guy out for blowing a coverage, it will be improvement.
