I don’t get it. If you’re better than those teams your’re still only second.

(he needs to figure out a way to be better than Saban and the Crimson Tide. Obviously willing to rattle the cages of Mack Brown, Urban Meyer and Lame Kiffin but smart move son to stay away from the cage which is holding the biggest animal at this point).

Good scoop on Grantham turning down the spurned Saban. Ouch!

Grantham must be one hot shot of a defensive talent if Saban offered him the DC job, Saban’s defense just finished #1 in the country.

The only thing Florida “owns” is a losing record to Georgia and the distinction of having never had an undefeated season in over 105 years of football. Georgia turning the series on Florida now appears roughly as likely as it appeared Florida would turn the series on Georgia in 1989 when the had a 4-15 record vs. GA since 1972? How’d that turn out. It’s very humourous to me the folks who don’t understand what really goes into winning and losing at this level and simply think that recent trends will always continue and a five year run is a real indicator of the inevitability of the next 10 years. If Georgia gets great talent and great coaching, they’ll get great results. If Alabama gets the same, they’ll get the same…….as will Florida, as will Auburn, as will Tennessee, as will LSU. What you’ve got to ask yourself is who has the greates resources to do so……..

And by the way Troof……..I am not the diviner of National Championships…..the NCAA is, you know, the sanctioning body of EVERY SINGLE COLLEGIATE ATHLETIC COMPETITION? The one who awards a legitimate National Championship to every single sport OTHER THAN D1A football……because they are the ONLY entity who can. Kind of the like the NFL office, not Golden Flake, is qualified to award the Commissioners Trophy to the Super Bowl winners.

UGA has the exact amount of SEC titles under Richt as Fla does in last nine years and more than ALA.

UGA finished more times top ten than Fla in those years.

UGA has won as many games as Fla in those same years.

UGA has won 8 or more games 13 years in a row (more than Fla).

UGA has been won 11 bowl games in last 13 years (more than Fla).

Now as far as the mythical NC…UGA had the same record in 2002 when UGA won the SEC title that Fla had when they won the SEC title but didnt get invited to the BCSNC.

Thats not an indictment on UGA thats an indictment on the BCS (we need a playoff).

I’ll leave the rest to the 1eyedJacka$$ that has a bigger mouth than brain. If you took the time to review my posts you would see a little reality beyond just being a fan. Reality is a good thing, delusion and blind fandom is something else. Both Tech and UGA made good hires. UGA has a larger fan base, larger stadium, better recruits, more money, etc. but the past two years have not been stellar ones for the boys in Athens. I hope both teams have a great 2010 and are both undefeated when they meet in November. I don’t think that will be the case but wouldn’t it be fun if they did? It would be very hard for ESPN to have a bias toward the great state of Georgia wouldn’t it? Peace.

Do I think Todd Grantham is better than Brian VanGorder ?

Yes. Next question ?

Todd Grantham who is on campus 22 January 2010 quote : ““Right now, take the players that you have here, the players that are committed and you basically rank those players. I think it’s important that you find ways to get your best players on the field. That’s what we’re going to do over the next few months. We’re going to be evaluating the players that we have right now. We’re going to be teaching them the system. We’re going to work to find out the things that they do well and find ways to put players in position to be successful to make plays. Ultimately, you have to make plays on defense and to do that you have to have guys that are playmakers. I think you do that by getting your best players on the field. I think player evaluation is critical.”

He is NOT Redshirting 9 of the Very Best Top Football Players, and then go 8-5 without them. That strategy has not worked. Oh, it’s worked if you like looking at the won/loss record of LSU and Florida in the same timeframe Coach Richt has been here, and see that BOTH of them have been BETTER than us. It’s worked if you look at Alabama and see that they too have passed us by. That’s 4th in The SEC for UGA. It’s worked if that is what you want. What you settle for. To be 4th in your own conference, never mind that during the Coach Richt Era not only are all these SEC teams a LOT BETTER than we are, but that on the National Stage so too have all these teams been BETTER in the Coach Richt Era than we are :

Southern California

Texas

Florida

Alabama

LSU

Boise State

Oklahoma

Ohio State

All of these teams are not only FAR MORE SUCCESSFUL overall than we have strapped ourselves with in the Coach Richt Era, but every single one of them except for Boise State has WON IT ALL.

3 out of 20, that’s what we’ve done in our own Division of our own Conference, never mind the National Stage after you get out of your own Conference. Out of our own Division of our Conference we are 3 wins out of 20 games against Florida.

They have totally killed us recruiting. Truth be told they have recruited the very top football players from the state of Georgia. They always have. They own us.

They own Coach Richt at 2-7 for us.

Todd Grantham understands that we UGA fans want more than that. We want to be better than that.

He knows we are out-recruited in our own state.

He knows we have left 9 of not our best players but 9 of the best players in all of America on the Sidelines, Redshirted in a season we sorely needed them at 8-5 with horrid losses to horrid football teams like 7-6 UNRANKED both Kentucky and the vols.

And, we tried to Redshirt Washaun Ealey the Number 11 Tailback Nationally we recruited last year too. Until the 3rd quarter of the 5th game, then we ripped the Redshirt Off Washaun Ealey.

Todd Grantham will tell Coach Richt and Mike Bobo to get Washaun Ealey on the field in Game 1 last year, were he here. That he is a hard player for his players to stop.

And, he wouldn’t be looking at Richard Samuel and Caleb King as our Saviors when it is obvious to everyone you have to play favorites to put those 2 ahead of Washaun Ealey. The season before this, Richard Samuel and Caleb King proved that they don’t catch the ball well, don’t block well, do not hold on to the football well, and do not run well. Not as well as Washaun Ealey.

Todd Grantham also knows that UGA has sent our Secondary Defensive Backs to the NFL for the time when he got started in the NFL 11 years ago, and that we don’t have those players on this Defense this year, or last year or the year before.

What we once had, we haven’t had.

We lined up All-America Secondary Players in our Backfield my whole lifetime. I picture them. They are indelibly in my mind, clearly. Those players go elsewhere from our state. Now. We don’t get them.

Beat Florida. Yeah. Right.

I think we have some this coming season. I really do. In fact, I know we do. I have seen them. Not that they got to play much.

Knowshon Moreno Redshirted.

So we only get to see him 2 years.

The best Running Back we’ve had in 3 Decades.

And, we Redshirt him.

B.S.

Leading the nation in Turnovers and Penalties and Arrests/Suspensions EVERY YEAR since the very day DJ Shockley graduated with Honors in 2005. That’s 5 years ago now.

3 of the last 4 years, UGA Bulldogs have no business claiming that we are even deserving of being a Ranked Team in the Final AP Poll Top 25.

3 of the last 4 extremely disappointing seasons, because our Offense sucks.

We don’t evaluate talent well.

We don’t.

We needed Todd Grantham. I hope he stays here a long time for us before becoming a head coach elsewhere. I still do not think we have any strategy whatsoever on play calls, either. But, I am certainly aware of the fact that he ranks players and figures out how to get the best players on the field making plays.

That part I am totally clued into.

We have NOT done that.

We are going to have a very successful year for Todd Grantham. He is a smart guy. He can look at this Defense as well as anyone can. It takes just a few moments to realize that UGA did not have good players in the Secondary last year. Those guys are all gone.

We Redshirted 9 of the Best Players in the Nation.

That doesn’t take a brain surgeon to figure out, either.

We have a hell of a lot of Number 7 in the Nation Best Recruiting Classes, 10 in a row now according to Both Rivals and Scout.com.

We have, in short, a not solid or very capable starting 11 on Defense, we have in fact a Great Defense this coming season.

And, the 2 Best Kickers on one team in America. We just have a weak offense.

Todd Grantham came here because he considers this an opportunity in his career. He is not an UGA man. He is a football coach.

Todd Grantham is not a Coach Richt guy either. Loyalty. Give me a damn freaking break RED DOG 77.

Why did he come here ?

To teach us with 11 years NFL experience that which we have demonstrated we have no clue about.

Rank them, get them on the field, coach them to be in position to take advantage of what they do well, but mostly get them on the damn field and leave them on the bloody hell field, making plays – the playmakers. . This will catch on at UGA and it will catch on with the Recruits.

You have a 53-man roster in the NFL. You cannot have your Best Players not play. Every other team has 53 players. You get your 53 players the best 53 and you play the hell out of them.

B.S. on this Redshirt our best football players and then go out and embarrass yourself against lousy 7-6 UNRANKED Kentucky and lousy 7-6 UNRANKED vols.

Kick-Off Coverage should be Todd Grantham’s JOB ONLY.

We still have to do something about the damn offense. We cannot waste these years of Todd Grantham with the FAILED OFFENSE of Mike Bobo. He doesn’t even try to make 1st down on 3rd and 10. No effort. He has beat NO Final AP Poll Top 10 team, losing EVERY GAME. He is 5-6 vs the Final AP Poll Top 25. And, worse yet he has even LOST to FOUR (4) TEAMS UNRANKED in the Final AP Poll Top 25.

We cannot line up, call a play without a penalty, and even execute the poorly designed play the players are not coached how to execute without a Turnover Fumble or Interception, never mind the play was never designed to be a play to gain 10-yards on 3rd and 10. And, under Mike Bobo, we do THAT EXACTLY against Top 10, against Top 25 and against UNRANKED teams.

Coach Richt Era 17-19 vs Final AP Poll Top 25 plus 8 Losses to Unranked teams

That is JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH RED DOG 77. And, there is NOTHING you can say that will SHUT ME UP ON MY POINT that you are and I am NOT satisfied with :

Coach Richt Era 17-19 vs Final AP Poll Top 25 plus 8 Losses to Unranked teams

So, do NOT get all hyped up on your Kool-Aid and tell me we are WINNING ANY DAMN NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP when after this season we LOSE 14 seniors and another half a dozen Juniors. Beat Florida. B.S. Now I return you to your FEEL GOOD LIARS hyping the crap out of Coach Richt’s coaches on the Offensive Side of the Ball where they have done NOTHING. DISNEYdawg RED DOG 77.

Rank them, get them on the field, coach them to be in position to take advantage of what they do well, but mostly get them on the damn field and leave them on the bloody hell field, making plays – the playmakers. . This will catch on at UGA and it will catch on with the Recruits

We continue to be out-recruited in our own state, with only 3 better at sending their high school players from their state to the NFL. In the Secondary, on both lines, and especially on offense. Oh, yeah, we are really going to beat Florida RED DOG 77, and win National Championships like Florida you tell us all RED DOG 77 while telling us we cannot talk about anything but how great we’ve been in the Coach Richt Era. You ain’t beating Florida when they take not only their best players there, but your best players here too RED DOG 77.

The new defense cord. at Georgia speaks the truth. The dawgs can win a NC if it closes its borders
and cherry picks 5 star and 4 star recruits from Florida and Alabama and in the Carolina’s also. I am
preaching to the choir but the dawgs must improve the defense and stop the stupid penalty’s that will
get you beat against good teams. Bama fans get to talk crap after winning the NC and it feels GOOD!!

UGA = Under Grown A**hole

A lot of contradiction between Opinion and Fact.

The fact of the matter is we have achieved and exceeded the level of recruiting class rankings. We have not had a #2 class in recruiting but finished #2 in the Nation three years ago.

We have also finished in the top ten other years as well matching recruitment rankings.

Do we want to be #1, YES! So does everyone else. We have been close but not there yet. Grantham hopefully will bring a different approach taking us to the next level.

I thank UGA and TECHs new DCs will do well!!! My question if TECH and UGA make it to the championship, do they both pull the high school card and say we got bigger things to focus on??????? TECH fans you and your coaches said that after the UGA loss……………

Its only Jan and we are talking about predictions. Here is my take on next year for the two school…….

TECH, lost alot more then UGA and the ACC is stronger!!! I thank the U and FSU or back. Alot to replace on that O and how do u replace those two all americans on the D. I do belive Al is goin to be an upgrade but maybe not enough. TECH goes 7-5 or 8-4 Peach Bowl or next game up…

UGA has alot of big holes to feel. Granthem is a big mystery… He lost alot on the D that has to be replaced and plus all the holes on the offense side if the ball. UGA has a lot less stressful schedule… I thank UGA may rebound but will go 8-4 or 9-3… Maybe Outback bowl?

look foward to seeing the dawgs get back to their winning ways after a year losing their best players early yet again to the nfl. if the coaches feel that the player needs to redshirt than im ok with that. better for the player to be better prepared the next year. as long as uga keeps putting players in the nfl the recruting will be fine. richt seems to be doing just fine the way his teams are playing and winning more times than not. his national title will be here soon enough and then bulldawg can finally quit crying about how bad a job richt is doing..

bulldawg,,sit back and enjoy the ride and just relax. mark richt and company will get uga over the top.. we have a stronger more experienced team coming back next year with most of our starters returning on offense and defense. also throw in some redshirt freshmen who are very talented and now a year older and wiser filling in for the missing seniors on the def line…uga will beat fla this year just like they did 2 years ago. no worries

ugaaccountant, I disagree. Staffords junior year, UGA should have won the SEC east at least, you had 2 players from that team drafted in the top 10 in the NFL draft; they under acheived. When it comes to recruiting rankings, there is not much difference in the top 10 rankings. If you consistently have a top 10 class then it is up to the coaching talent to push them over the top.

Boss, You are correct and Grantham is right; there is no reason UGA cannot be as good as any of the other top 3 ( I dont consider Boise because they play in a weak conference). UGA has the facilities, fan base, money and are in the right conference. The team needs only to do 3 things: play to their ability not competition, make Sanford stadium not just a beautiful setting but a place that they OWN and 3rd get UF out of their heads. Florida is in their heads the same way FSU was in ours was when Spurrier was at UF.

9-4, possibly 10-3.

When we are 3rd and 10, we run the football.

Our Runnings Back Coach never played the posiiton and doesn’t know how to teach a running back to carry the ball, hold on to it.

Our receivers coach never played there either, and he taught AJ Green ? But, can’t teach Marlon Brown ? What’s the deal with 3 Tight Ends who can play in the NFL and we don’t give it to any of them ? And, what is the deal when we were struggling running the ball that we never gave it to the 2 NFL Fullbacks ? Our quarterbacks ? Did you see evidence we taught Matthew Stafford to value the football with 18 fumbles and 33 interceptions to 51 TD passes ? Did you see evidence we taught Logan Gray a thing ? Joe Cox, he was readied by our coaches on Offense ?

Oh, so now we have 3 Quarterbacks who are Freshmen. You think we have those ready, I see.

After this season, we lose 14 seniors and 6 Juniors.

We will have stripped the team.

This recruiting class is not nearly up to snuff compared to the Number 7 class every year for 9 previous years.

This class will end up about Number 13.

9-4 maybe 10-3.

BuLLdawg, I like I said above, I go to all of the UGA home game with my lady friend and root for them except in Jax. Since I havent been brought up in the Bulldawg traditions, I observe whats going on as an observer and they have no doubt UNACHEIVED. Richt is not the same as he was when he was at FSU. When he was hired, I was worried because he owned the Gators during that time. FSU has not been the same since. He needs to turn things around within the next 2 years or he will be gone like Martinez. I see Kentucky as the team on the rise.

Boss dawg, I don’t like to look at the history of the series because it was really lopsided in UGA’s favor before I was born in 52, but since 1952 UF actually is ahead. But none of that crap really matters anyway. Not kidding here, but what UGA really needs is a sports psychologist. I have been to most of the games (jax) since the late 80’s and since 1990 you have lost many times when you had better talent. For some reason, UF is in their heads.

BULLDAWG

I think there is a good chance you could be a political strategist in charge of spin if you ever wanted to get out of your moms basement and get a job.

All those teams you list that have out performed UGA over what ever time period. What happened to the argument you presented before about how bad those teams really were no matter how they ranked? Remember how Texas is really no good since they only beat one top 25 team this year and that was NE and they shouldn’t be in the top 50? Remember that? Remember that Boise SHOULD NEVER be ranked in the top 50 just because they beat OU one time years ago. SO which is it? Are those teams better since it fits your argument now or are they worse since that fit your argument before?

If you really want to get a feel for the state of the program, look at the last ten years SEC W vs L. That will give you a better idea of where we are. You might also look and see that no other team in the NATION has as many 8 win season in a row as UGA. Not USC, TX, Boise, ND, NOBODY. They must be doing SOMETHING right over there.

You can certainly criticize recruiting. It is hilarious to me to have these people mad because we don’t do better with a top 10 class every year. Its because the people we play have even better classes. There is no excuse to have incoming classes ranked lower than LSU, UA or AU. UF will always have an advantage because of geographical location and there are alot of really good players in the state. This year AU has no depth at all so many highly ranked recruits are going there to have the opportunity to play sooner. AU wont out recruit GA on many occasions. Also recruiting classes are dependent on what positions you need. If a team gets a great QB they get ranked higher than if they get a great C. There are alot more 5 star QB’s and RB’s than C’s. So class ranking isn’t the best way to evaluate what you bring in.

But the main point is that one year of fumbles and interceptions does not make a program bad. Like I said they are the only D-1 school to have 8 wins in the last 13 years. Not a single school in the country has been that consistent. I think if you feel that it’s so bad in Athens you should pick any one of the other D-1 schools who can’t make that claim and ride their roller coaster a while. I”m tired of reading your crap. You think it you write enough BS that it makes it true. It’s like a colleague of mine who thinks if he argues a case loud enough what he says will turn into being true.

GA GATOR, I’m not labeling you buddy, I just think Ga Gator is similar to Benedict Arnold or Tuscaloosa Tiger.

As far as the 8 wins go, I would argue that it means nothing to you because the team you support can’t make the claim. I am sure most UGA fans would want 13 straight 13 win seasons, and I would argue that the wife beater donning six pack popping crowd that post here expect it and believe for some reason it is their right to have it. It’s the same people that think Erk Russel was the epitome of success when in actuality if he were coaching with the same results today as he had back then this blog would be filled with “Fire Erk Now!”

There is no denying the UF success since Steve Spurrier became coach. I believe that on a consistent basis, no team will be able to compete year in and year out with UF unless they at some point hire an incompetent coach and the reason that is so is due to a combination of geographical area and the technology associated with recruiting today. Unless there is a log jam at a particular position, I believe any kid who isn’t a life long fan of another school would go to UF given the choice. They will consistently gather the best players and should therefore have the best team. I don’t believe there is anything UGA or any other team can do about that besides moving to central Florida. That’s not to say that other teams can’t beat them on a given day, but if 2009 AL plays 2009 UF nine more times UF wins 8 or more. Ole Miss beat them last year. It will happen. But it what won’t ever happen is a 5 loss season unless there is a bad coach. The players they recruit will always bee too good. Better than those, on an overall basis, than those at the other SEC schools.

So I’m not here to debate the superiority of the UF football program, but it’s not only superior to ours but to the rest of the nation as well. This hire was a big step up and it will make us more competitive on a given day against UF than before. If UF has a bad year next year it will be an abboration no an indication of the state of the program. Much like this year for UGA.

I think a strong argument can be made that 6 or 7 of the top 15 teams in the country this past year were found in the SEC no matter their W-L record. Texas only beat 1 top 25 team and that was NE who should have been unranked. The QB’s between Boise and TCU were supposed to be all world. They made Joe Cox look like Joe Namath. Cinci??? PULEASE! minor league. UF was the most talented team in the country and should be most years as long as they keep a decent head coach and remain located in central FL.

I only commented to you as I can’t understand someone who doesn’t pull for the home team. Thats all.

Guess what DA? BULLDAWG you lost all respect with that comment. You think that because you type something long and say it loud it’s true. That’s some crystal ball you’ve got there to predict AL would beat TX.

There is so much more that goes into how good a team is than its record. See Cinici, a minor league team wound up ranked in the top 10. And if you think the Boise State program fields better teams than UGA then maybe you should become a fan of their team, get an NCAA TV package tapped into your moms basement. Surely they are on somewhere. The QB at Boise as well as the one at TCU , makes Joe Cox look like Joe Willie. The “final AP Top 25″ is useless as a parameter to judge the power level of a football team. Boise, TCU, Cinci, NE, CLEMSON, Tech, Miami, FL, Utah, PITTSBURGH????, hell Cinci beat them!, and WI none of those teams could have beaten UGA as bad as we were this year and you try to use the top 25 as your yardstick for success?? Pathetic.

Redshirting 7 of the best players in the country? WHO says they are some of the best in the country? YOU? You obviously know nothing about talent since you proclaim Boise to be better than a good high school all star team. Why not redshirt those D Linemen when you already have 3 that will play in the NFL that are seniors? Bozo. You have no idea why those guys were redshirted, they could have needed more time to get used to the academics, or a million reasons, but the point is YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHY. Why don’t you coach a D-1 team since you know so much?

Just because you write long posts and write them in that ignorant format you use doesn’t make it true. I’m done with you. Save your ignorant posts for someone who isn’t bright enough to know the difference. I won’t be reading another.

We cannot line up and run a play without a Penalty.

We cannot figure out who Our Best Players are, and play them.

We give up on 3rd and 10 and run the football.

We cannot block for the pass.

We cannot block for the run.

We can hold.

We can false start.

We lose to an UNRANKED team in Final Poll EVERY YEAR for 9 years now.

We LOSE to the Top 25 teams MORE THAN WE BEAT THEM.

We have had 0 years when we got a great bowl game to cap a season.

We are an afterthought on the National Stage.

We are WORSE than LSU and FLORIDA in the Coach Richt Era.

We are WORSE than Alabama now too.

We are WORSE than Texas in the Coach Richt Era.

We are WORSE than Oklahoma in the Coach Richt Era.

We are WORSE than Southern California in the Coach Richt Era.

We are WORSE than Boise State in the Coach Richt Era.

We are WORSE than Ohio State in the Coach Richt Era.

We are CONSISTENTLY WORSE in the Coach Richt Era than ALL OF THESE TEAMS, INCLUDING NOW WE ARE THE 4TH BEST TEAM IN OUR OWN DAMN CONFERENCE.

17-19 vs AP Poll Final Top 25 and 8 Losses to UNRANKED teams.

Our Offense is the Problem. We do NOT have good play calls.

We waste the firepower handed to our Offensive Coaching Staff.

Bryan McClendon NEVER PLAYED RUNNING BACK for UGA.

Bryan McClendon was ONLY a RECEIVER for UGA.

His dad did. Maybe we should hire his DAD ?

He clearly cannot determine who should be our Running Back.

He clearly cannot teach any Running Back how to carry the ball so he doesn’t fumble it.

Bryan McClendon was a good Receiver when he played. Maybe he should coach Receivers ?

Why does it take until 3rd Quarter of 5th Game to play Washaun Ealey not Richard Samuel and not Caleb Freaking King ?

We Started Richard Samuel and Caleb Freaking do nothing King EVERY GAME at Tailback except 2 starts by Washaun Ealey.

WHO THE HELL DO YOU ANY OF YOU THINK IS A BETTER RUNNING BACK ?

I am not the 1 who is so damn smart, who should be hired as O.C. or head Coach. YOU ARE. You all say that Washaun Ealey CLEARLY IS OUR BEST RUNNING BACK.

So, why ?

Because we play FAVORITES, even those who have proven they are NOT as good as the ones BEHIND them on the Depth Chart.

Because our Running Backs’ Coach KNOWS NOTHING about Running Backs.

NOTHING.

.

Tony Ball NEVER PLAYED RECEIVER.

Tony Ball taught AJ Green to be great ? I think not.

Tony Ball cannot teach Marlon Brown but CAN AJ Green ?

What’s that all about ?

Tony Ball was a Great Running Back.

So, why then is Tony Ball Coaching the Receivers Coach Richt ?

Shouldn’t Bryan McClendon have Tony Ball’s job and Tony Ball, Bryan McClendon’s job ?

They NEITHER are doing the job you put them in with NO NFL EXPERIENCE and with NO EXPERIENCE at the POSITION you have them BOTH as POSITION COACH for.

Why did we play Marlon Brown and LOSE AN ENTIRE SEASON throwing him only 2 passes all season long for only 15 yards ?

Why ?

Because our Receivers’ Coach KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT RECEIVERS.

He didn’t teach AJ Green. AJ Green was already All-America before Tony Ball given this CUSHY DAMN JOB “coaching” AJ Green.

In the Florida game at half time, they interviewed Coach Richt and asked him what they had to do to get AJ Green involved in the game ? Coach Richt glibly shot back : Throw him the ball ?

.

John Lilly was a Quarterback.

What the F does John Lilly know about Tight Ends ?

John Lilly coached Tight Ends for Coach Richt the last couple of years.

John Lilly 1st year TE Coach, NO TE caught more than 5 passes all season.

John Lilly this past year has 3 of the best TE in the nation.

He cannot figure out that ORSON CHARLES with star in NFL for 10 years.

He thinks Aron White is BETTER because he caught 3 passes entire 2008.

Orson Charles caught 23 passes for 374 yards his freshman year, not 3.

John Lilly has Aron White Starter at TE for 3 passes caught freshman yr.

Why did we LOSE to Okie State, LSU and the vols ?

Losses because we did NOT Start our Best Players, play FAVORITES.

FAVORITES who proved they are NOT as good as one behind them on the Damn Depth Chart.

You want to KNOW WHY WE BEAT Georgia Tek & Texas A&M ?

Because ORSON CHARLES was Starting TE in those 2 games.

Why does it take 11 games to figure out Orson Charles GREAT Aron White back-up ?

Why ?

Because we play FAVORITES; that’s why.

Give me a Freaking Break 3 catches all of 2008 makes Aron White Starter until Game 12 of a 13 game season. YOU SAID Orson Charles should have been the Starter in Game 1. I am NOT the one who should be O.C. or head Coach. YOU SHOULD BE.

It takes us until Game 12 of 13 to make Orson Charles Starting TE ?

Idiots.

THERE is NO WAY to RANK the PLAYERS, and get your PLAYMAKERS on the DAMN FIELD and have Orson Charles NOT START until Game 12 in favor of Aron White.

.

MIKE FREAKING BOBO.

Alias Bozo.

He had a fine senior season for UGA, 1 of the best ever as our QB # 10 UGA.

Having taught our QB Matthew Stafford to have 51 Interceptions and Fumbles to his 51 Touchdown Passes, he is PROMOTED to Offensive Coordinator.

You may recall the previous OC was arrested for DUI. Neil Callaway.

Then, again, you may not. I do.

Neil Callaway finally left after his DUI as our Offensive Coordinator.

He apologized for the DUI, Neil Callaway did.

2006 with Matthew Stafford and Neil Callaway Offensive Coordinator :
.

79 NCAA Number 79 Passing Offense

90 NCAA Number 90 Total Offense

70 NCAA Number 70 Most Penalties

22 FUMBLES

16 INTERCEPTIONS

1 DUI by the Offensive Coordinator.

1 Beer Keg Photo at Talladega, following Callaway’s example, by his Starting QB.

Any correlation there you think ? Nice coaching job.

Neil Callaway is 11-25 at UAB replacing Watson Brown 62-74 at UAB.

The DUI and Beer Keg Photos were Major Distractions in 2006.

.

SO, WITH THAT BACKGROUND NEXT OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR hired by Coach Richt is MIKE BOZO, I mean Booboo, I mean Bobo, sorry.

.

2007 UGA with Matthew Stafford :
.

84 NCAA Number 84 Passing Offense

74 NCAA Number 74 Total Offense

This, not only is NOT a good trend, but Mike Bobo has NEVER BEAT a Final AP Poll Top 10 team, LOSING EVERY GAME.

Duh.

5-6 vs. Final AP Poll Top 25 with 4 LOSSES to UNRANKED TEAMS.

Duh.

Has FAILED to PREPARE a SINGLE QUARTERBACK, ever.

Talks about VALUING THE FOOTBALL and how we have to do BETTER at VALUING THE FOOTBALL, because of ME in here.

Then, promptly goes out instead and HAS SOME OF THE WORST PERFORMANCES by his Quarterbacks on Offense EVER on ANY TEAM in the HISTORY of FOOTBALL with combined FUMBLES and INTERCEPTIONS now EXCEEDING the number of Touchdown Passes as OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR.

Plus, he cannot even line his players up and run a play without a penalty.

3rd and 10 ? Running Play. Every time.

1st down ?

Throw a Pass.

Mike Bobo is so predicable that UNRANKED TEAMS’ coaches UTTERLY take him to the DAMN CLEANERS.

4 LOSSES to UNRANKED TEAMS as Offensive Coordinator.

Bozo put up 17 vs Florida this year after 10 last year when he got applauds from the Florida players on the sidelines politely applauding Bozo for finally scoring with a minute left the only touchdown he got with Knowshon Moreno, Matthew Stafford and AJ Green.

.

.

It has been a MISERABLE RUN with Mike Bobo as Offensive Coordinator.

There is NO OTHER WAY TO DESCRIBE IT.

Mike Bobo has NEVER BEEN OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR ANYWHERE.

But, we have to have a coach with 11 years NFL Experience to be our Defensive Coordinator, but our Offensive Coordinator can be of the same mold as all the other coach Richt hires on his “coaching staff” other than this 1 Defensive Coordinator with 11 Years NFL Experience.

No Knowledge of good play calls and no one ever said he did.

No Experience as Offensive Coordinator.

No NFL experience.

No Proof he can call plays.

Boos by EVERY FAN at Sanford Stadium for Bozo’s PLAY CALLS.

I actually UGA’s defense will be much improved under Grantham. I think he’s a really good coach, but they still won’t beat us.

With Grantham running the D, the dawgs defense should explode next year. Florida’s way down without Tebow and Tennessee will have nothing. UGA should win the SEC east pretty easily and play bama for the SEC title. Grantham’s D should shut down the Tech offense with no problem. The DAWGS are back!
