Alas, Georgia’s coaching is no longer championship-caliber
It was another hair-raising loss for UGA and Mark Richt. (AJC photo by Brant Sanderlin)
On Oct. 27, 2007, Knowshon Moreno scored to give Georgia a 7-0 lead against Florida, prompting the Bulldogs’ semi-planned and twice-penalized on-field celebration. What you knew: Georgia won that day 42-30, marking the only time Mark Richt’s team has beaten Urban Meyer’s.
What you didn’t know: The day of the Gator Stomp marked the first and last time — in six tries, mind you — a Richt team has taken a lead on Meyer’s.
As disheartening as Richt being 1-5 against Meyer is, the repeated failure to nose ahead even 3-0 is more alarming. It’s a direct reflection of coaching, or the lack thereof. Rule 1 in the Coaching Manual: Get your team ready to play. Sad to say, the Bulldogs under Richt are rarely ready.
Say what you will about Meyer, but the man can coach. His work against Ohio State in Glendale, Ariz., in January 2007 was the greatest coaching performance the BCS title game has ever seen, and his work against Georgia on Saturday was no less inspired. In Jacksonville he took the demonstrably lesser team — anybody see an A.J. Green or a Justin Houston or even an Aaron Murray or an Orson Charles among Gators? — and wrung 450 yards and 34 points from it. Meyer tried everything. Richt’s team tried running the ball on second-and-10 in overtime.
The best you can say about Richt’s coaching is that his players didn’t quit when they fell behind. That’s surely because they’ve had so much practice: Georgia hasn’t led in any of its four SEC losses. South Carolina and Arkansas took the ball first and drove to touchdowns. Georgia took the ball against Mississippi State and went three-and0ut; on Saturday Murray threw an interception on the first snap.
We once considered Richt a splendid gameday coach, but that time is gone. Georgia was 52-13 in Richt’s first five season, reaching the SEC title game three times and winning it twice. It’s 42-19 since. Not coincidentally, Richt’s decline dovetails with Meyer’s rise. (Although it must be noted that Richt has a losing record against three Florida coaches: He was 0-1 against Steve Spurrier, 1-2 against Ron Zook.)
There’s still great talent at Georgia — the old Spurrier knock on Ray Goff now attaches itself to this coach: “Georgia gets all these players; I don’t know what happens to them” — but the coaching has fallen below SEC standards. If we’re looking for the sea-change game, we need underscore Sept. 27, 2008, the night Nick Saban and Alabama came to Athens and not only jumped ahead but led by 31 points after 30 minutes.
Back to Saturday: The Bulldogs got the ball to start overtime, which means the worst they should have done was gain no yards and let Blair Walsh try a 42-yard field goal to put them ahead. Instead Murray threw the ball into stacked coverage and saw the Gators nearly end the game without having to play offense. Murray has had a terrific freshman season and had a fabulous second half, but in the season’s biggest moment he made the one play a quarterback cannot make.
That’s what Georgia under Richt has come to do: It makes the one play to lose a game, as opposed to David Greene throwing to Verron Haynes in Knoxville or to Michael Johnson in Auburn. (Or even Matthew Stafford throwing to Mikey Henderson in Tuscaloosa.) Georgia under Richt has become the toothless tiger — the team everyone respects but nobody fears.
Richt’s 10-year body of work stands as a mighty argument for administrative patience. More current events suggest the Richt of 2010 isn’t the Richt of yesteryear. It took four full seasons under this coach and defensive coordinator Brian VanGorder for Georgia to lose 10 games. The Bulldogs lost five times last year, changed defensive coordinators and have already lost five times this.
And now Richt’s gifted Bulldogs have fallen to the worst Florida team Meyer has fielded. In a year where the SEC East was ripe for a young team to rise up and march to the Georgia Dome, that team will not be Mark Richt’s. He’s no longer a championship coach. Dating back to Nov. 29, 2008, his Bulldogs are 13-11, which means he’s barely even a winning coach.

the problem with most UGA fans and faculty is you’re loyalty lies with the person or the personality the coach…. regardless of performance. the loyalty should be to the institution first and a commitment to winning, because coaches come and go.for example Tommy Tubberville out of respect for the institution and realizing the program deserved better resigned at auburn, and look at the turn around at auburn.there are times when the institution and the football program deserves better regardless of personal feelings for individuals….. these are those times.

Ok I am a Tech fan but I would rather see you Dawgs win all but one game a year! I had a thought about the UGA program and its current situation, Dawgs have a proven coaching staff with a record for winning ( ok we won’t include Bobo). Richt is a class act. He has kept player arrests on a low profile and quietly increased dicipline. Besides even a Techie knows some of those aressts were questionable (fireworks???) He kept the Green incident from bringing the NCAA down on the school and as far as I know runs a clean ship there. Dawgs make more money than almost all programs. Dawg recruits are always top notch. Your facilities are unquestionable.. So is there anything really wrong other than just luck, the law of averages and the fact that yours is not the only program in the country doing this???? For the most part I think it the latter but there is one weak link in UGA athletics, This person hasn’t droped a pass, hasn’t thrown an interception, never made a bad call on the field not even failed to recruit a good player. He has however been at the heart of all the schools athletic woes of the last thirteen years. You my friends need to fire the guy at the top!!! Michael Adams. Either Dooleygate or pantygate ought to have brought this to light. Take it from a Tech fan, a school president can do far more to screw up an athletic program than any other person. Our downfall was Joe Pettit who didnt want Tech to be in athletics and tried to choke it out (we havn’t and may never fully recover). Yours seems to be one who takes far to big an interest in athletics. Kinda reminds me of the days when Ted Turner tried to be the Braves defacto manager.Adams is a prima donna and wants the spotlight. Every time I read about anything he does it it appears he’s doing it for Adams and not for UGA or even education in the state. Be glad to hear your pros and cons on this

I disagree with you on this one Mark. Ritch at least has class and character. Myer is among the classes thugs of college football…i.e. Myer and Kiffin. By the way, if Myer was so great, how come they have 3 losses and 2 more coming later this year? Ritch will be around…he did have his team ready…early turnovers by fresham QB costs us the game in the big picture of things…but Murray and others will bounce back.

The image that best sums up Georgia under Richt: Baccari Rambo standing over a Florida receiver that he just drilled, clapping in celebration over the hit, apparently unconcerned that he arrived well after the receiver caught the ball for a crucial first down and long gain and that his team was getting beat.
But hey, the hit probably looked good on TV, right?

It is called an “analogy,” Barack @ 12:15 pm. However, with you being a UGA attendee where learning was apparently the least of your concerns, we shouldn’t be surprised you didn’t bother to get educated enough to learn what an “analogy” is while there.
When people think of the loud and obnoxious behavior or Gator fans, your bride is a fair comparison people would instantly recognize and be able to pu proper perspective. Notice no one ever associates the behavior of Gators fans with classy and intelligent people such as Condoleezza Rice or Denzel Washington?
Thanks for your ignorant, racist and bigoted statement about what you think of the collective UGA fan base though, Barack.

Mark, good article. I think it’s time for fans to realize the situation we have had for the last few years. Richt doesn’t appear as if he even wants to be a coach…….especially at Georgia. You can tell his heart just isn’t in it and his mind, therefore, isn’t either. When I look at him I see a man who wants to be somewhere else doing something else. When he’s asked questions in interviews he doesn’t even know some of the more important statistics. He says things like “We threw too many interceptions…..I don’t know……how many did we throw ….. 3 or 4″? Or, “We still had too many penalities……..I don’t know exactly how many we had……..was it 8 or 10″? A good head coach who was focused on the game would know this kind of numbers and would not ever be able to forget them. But Richt just isn’t even tuned in enough to know. He’s thrown in the towel and just lets his assistants run the show which sometimes works just fine, but for us they are not getting the job done either.
Saturday was the most mystifying display of play-calling I have ever seen anywhere. It made no sense at all. And Richt just can’t see it. He’s not tuned in enough to care.

This article is crap. I am so sick of the fair weather dawg fans. Especially the 99% of dawg fans who have never stepped foot in a UGA classroom. Richt is 94-32. We have been to Atlanta 3 times since 2002 and won twice. For the first time in the history of the school, we were ranked preseason #1 in 2008. These are not achievements of a mediocre coach. True, the last two seasons have not gone well, but as Tony Barnhart wrote a few weeks ago, “Richt has earned the right to turn things around.” I just hope Richt doesn’t get sick of UGA fans before he does just that.

As a Tech fan, I do feel for my Georgia friends. They are stuck in the same situation we were with Chan Gailey! Our administration and AD dealt with it even though it was painful and expensive. The issue then was that he couldn’t beat Georgia even when he had better teams! He was a nice fellow but also arrests and low graduation rates were also embarassing! The situation has changed dramatically for the better Coach Johnson was hired! Every now and then like last week it is dissappointing to lose to a Clemson team when we have better talent but I can live with that as the team is competitive every week and they play hard! We can be proud of the team and the ACC championship won last season is special! You folks have a big problem! You have a nice guy who can recruit but he can’t beat Florida, is way overpaid, and either cannot manage the team or the players do not respect him at all! If the goal of the university is to compete for championships at all costs then this guy may be the guy. But if it is to compete with class and pride and win a championship when it is your time then this is not the guy. Good luck, the entire state is watching and hoping you get it right! I hope so for my friends’ sake!

I have a few other comments to make and then will stop rubbing it in for the 18th time in the last 21 years….
1) Aaron Murray is very, very good and is going to become even better in the future…with or without Mark Richt as his coach. Only issue…arm strenth…not there right now. His decision making is going to get better…..and he is an outstanding athlete…..but Florida has a kid coming in (Jeff Driskell) that has what Murray doesn’t have….size….6′4, 225….speed and quickness (same as Murray)…and an NFL arm (strong short and deep passer…and can really throw the out)…..and he will be throwing and handing off to Trey Burton for several years. Scary!
2. Mark Richt is a great recruiter and has been a really good coach at Georgia….but I think he has had his run at Georgia and needs a change of scenery (as many narrow minded Georgia fans want)….probably in Miami after Randy Shannon is fired at the end of the year….and Richt will go down there and probably win several national titles with the talent he will be able to recruit to that campus…..YES….I need Mark Richt to stay at Georgia for that reason alone.
3. Thanks for the coming out party for the young, Florida Gators. You may have just prepared us well to go head to head with South Carolina in a couple of weeks. The Florida offense came alive yesterday….and the Gators will have Jaye Howard back at DT, Matt Patchan back at OT, Andre Debose back at the slot receiver position….and will likely have Jeff Demps (another one of the Bradley talentless players at Florida) back at 100% for the firs time since the Vols game. Also…Moses Jenkins will be back at CB.
…..and if the Gators beat SC…they will go to Atlanta with a good chance to win the SEC title….something Georgia no longer has.
Go Gators!

I think you guys are crazy about the playcalling. UGA had over 400 yards of offense against a solid Gator defense yesterday. The difference was the turnovers. You can’t blame that on the coaches. Murray made a few bad throws under pressure. He’s a freshman that was playing in the biggest game he’s ever been in. Also, the best secondary he’s ever faced. It happens. You can blame the overall season on the coaches, but not yesterday’s game. UGA came to play and they did play toe-to-toe with UF all day. Look at the stats and the scoreboard. It can’t get any closer than that.
Great game and a shame either side had to lose.

You think Myer’s coaching had something to do with Harvey and Moss terrorizing the Heisman winner from “the” Oihio Steat! The same coach that tried a QB sweep on 4th and 12 yesterday at the UGA thirty yard line! The leghumpers are lucky to have Richt. They haven’t been relevant for thirty years! Who the heck are ya gonna hire! This is the same administration that gave a 36 year old former wide reciever the keys to the athletic dept! How much do you expect!

To Watch out Auburn. Nothing to date would be more pleasing than GA whipping au BUT THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN BECAUSE GA’s DC won’t do anything different to make it happen. He’s arguably the reason for GA’s 5 losses. He refuses to stack the line to stop the run. Thats why we lost to FL. He did nothing to change up when FL coaches saw they needed to get Brantly out of the picture and do something different. But Granthem did not and Richt just stands there and allows him to continue in his losing ways. Both should go and Bradley is right. CMR has taken GA as far as he can. Its been all down since.

If Georgia had sqeaked out that game yesterday….as Florida did…all these Georgia fans would be on here talking about winning the SEC title and the National title next year….and raving about what a great comeback their great coach directed. Fact is….Mark Richt and his staff did a good job coaching yesterday and barely lost to a more talented, if very young, Florida team.
Fact is also…..these Georgia “fans” are trying to chase the best head coach they have ever had out of state….and to Miami….let’s hope they aren’t successful….for Richt will be a national championship coach at Miami.

Aaron Murray is very, very good and is going to become even better in the future
The Tech geeks said the very same thing for years about Reggie Ball. All the way until the very bitter end they said it. Like Ball, Murray is a little tiny guy with a mediocre arm, mediocre speed and mediocre intelligence who is inaccurate and mistake prone. The girl with the curl. The little tease. Just good enough to keep you believing, just bad enough to lose the game and break your heart. Get used to it. 40 more games of this vastly overrated little shrimp. Hopefully, a new coach will cut the losses with this Murray scrub

“Fact is….Mark Richt and his staff did a good job coaching yesterday and barely lost to a more talented, if very young, Florida team.”
I disagree. Mark Richt and his staff did a good job of rallying the team in the second half, but came out ill-prepared against a Florida team that was pretty mediocre. I’d say Florida’s talent level right now is above average, nothing more. Which puts them in the same boat as Georgia.

Absolutely one of the best articles you’ve written Mark and the most spot-on assessment of Mark Richt’s Georgia Football team. We simply are not longer even a contender in the SEC, much less the national scene. As I mentioned on Schultz’s blog, we are mired somewhere between underachievement and mediocrity. The last five years have seen a steep decline in Georgia’s program and that is not coincedentally accompanied with Florida and Alabama’s rise (3 National Titles in 5 years combined), as you duly noted. As a Georgia grad, I’m not coming out and calling for Mark Richt’s termination, mostly because 1) it simply won’t happen this year, and 2) it does no good because only the boosters with major money and influence will truly create a change. Just trying to be objective. Personally, I think it’s time for a change, but I can understand them giving him another year. Even though the overall record is pretty awesome, the recent history (5 years) is alarming and obvious (13-11). I was one that thought all we needed was a new defensive staff, I was wrong. 2007 was the exception, not the rule. We have underperformed and underachieved. Trying to be rational, but Richt’s chances of redemption are all but over. Why should we expect anything to change given one more year.
Many will quickly throw out the mess that’s going on Tennessee as a warning of making quick decisions. That was result of them hiring Lane Kiffin, not them making a change. Regardless of all the BS and garbage Kiffin brought with him, he was doing what they hired him to do in his first season (gave us a serious @ss whipping and nearly beat Florida in Gainesville in year 1 — with Tebow). The risk then of course fell apart when he bolted 2 weeks before recruiting deadline leaving them completely high and dry and really having to make a knee-jerk move and not being able to methodically go about it.
I’m not necessarily saying this wouldn’t be a repeat of us, but there are other examples that have shown success. Alabama got rid of Mike Shula one year removed from being 8-0 in 2005. Florida got rid of Ron Zook pretty quick, even though he did manage to go 2-1 against us and that wasn’t even close to being good enough. Auburn was criticized the most as being the most reactionary when they got rid of Tuberville (doing it appropriately or not) and he was undefeated, 13-0, only a few years removed. They are 9-0 and #1 in the NATION right now. They may completely fold down the stretch, but who can say we wouldn’t switch spots (at least at the moment). People will say that its all Cameron Newton, while that is true, they’ve managed to cultivate his talent when we had future #1 NFL Draft Pick Matthew Stafford, Knowshon Moreno, and Mohammed Massoquoi and were completely blown out by Alabama and Florida, and collapsed to an inferior GT team at HOME.
Florida lost 3 games in a row, the worst team fielded by Meyer, gave up a 14 point lead, lost 11 senior to the NFL draft, lost one of the best players to ever play college football (dislike him too, but just the truth), offensive coordinator two years ago, and defensive coordinator this year and we STILL LOST. Simply put, this is no longer a rivalry. We lose when we have better teams (2002, 2003, 2005), inferior teams (2006, 2009), and equally matched teams (2008, 2010) in terms of talent. Would a Kirby Smart or Will Muschamp be the answer? Possibly not. But I can tell you that both would have this Georgia team ready to play against Florida. As they have as D-Coordinators in every time they play Florida, Muschamp at LSU and Auburn and Smart at Alabama. I know it won’t happen, but I’m ready for a change. Otherwise, I know what to expect from a Mark Richt-led Georgia team, mediocrity and underachievement.

I for one think Murray sucks! He made a few plays that win games and then 5 or 6 plays that lose you games. Freshman or not, I’d rather have a good, solid, steady QB that avoids turn overs.
