Richt coaches fans on crowd noise; McClendon weighs in on ‘Boo’

Here’s a link to Tuesday’s football notebook and another to my profile of free safety Bacarri Rambo, who played this past Saturday’s game with a heavy heart. It was a busy, newsy day around the Butts-Mehre Building, however, and I couldn’t fit everything in. So following is some stuff that didn’t make the cut for print. Call it “bonus material.” . . .

Richt coaches fans on crowd noise

Georgia coach Mark Richt is counting on the Bulldogs’ fans to be a 12th man against Mississippi State on Saturday. He’s so adamant that they produce crowd noise that he stood up during his opening remarks at his weekly press conference on Tuesday and demonstrated exactly when and how he wanted them to be noisy.

“I want to talk to our fans and educate them a little bit,” Richt said. “We need a lot of crowd noise and I know fans know that. But when teams no huddle [like Mississippi State] and you’re cheering, you might not be cheering at the right time. So I want to try to tell you what we hope happens in the game.”

Standing up, Richt demonstrated how State’s quarterback Chris Relf looks to the sideline for a play call after lining up in the shotgun and starting the cadence.

“When he looks to the sideline,” Richt said, turning to face the side of the room, “that’s the time when we need the fans to go berserk. That’s when they’re going to try to communicate to their line what they’re going to do. We don’t want them to communicate well. We want them to have trouble hearing each other and we want offensive linemen to jump offsides. So, UGA fan base, that’s the time when we want you to go crazy, when he looks to the sideline after he starts his cadence.”

What’s up with Malcome?

There was a lot of rumor and innuendo bouncing around Tuesday about tailback Ken “Boo” Malcome, who didn’t make the trip to Ole Miss and was absent for Tuesday’s practice. Even running backs coach Bryan McClendon heard the scuttlebutt that Malcome was itching to transfer.

“It sort of took me by surprise to be honest with you,” McClendon said. “Every time I’ve talked to him, he’s been happy here and this is definitely the place that he wanted to come to and this is the place where he wants to be.  . . . The bottom line is the guys that have been able to come out and perform out there at practice, those are the guys that have been able to play.”

As it turns out, Malcome missed practice because of “some sort of stomach problem,”  according to McClendon. But therein lies the problem with Malcome getting playing time.

The 6-foot, 221-pound redshirt freshman from Decatur was expected to step to the forefront this season with Georgia’s attrition at tailback. But since preseason camp opened in August he has fallen behind true freshman Isaiah Crowell, linebacker convert Richard Samuel, junior Carlton Thomas and former walkon Brandon Harton on the depth chart.

“The biggest thing for Ken is he just has to come out there and be able to practice so he can keep progressing,” McClendon said. “Obviously, that’s something that’s sort of held him back last season, this season, this past spring, this past summer. I think he has a bunch of talent. Once he is out there and once he does get better, you’ll see the player that he can become. But he just has to be out there.”

Robinson spotting

All indications are that inside linebacker Christian Robinson will be available to play on Saturday.

To be clear, that’s “available,” not “will play.” But the 6-foot-2, 226-pound “Mike” linebacker was practicing without any obvious limitations on Tuesday, the second day in a row Robinson has been on the field. Robinson has been out since the fourth quarter of the South Carolina game with foot injury. He was a starter and the Bulldogs’ leading tackler in the first two games and is considered the unofficial defensive captain.

I don’t know about 30 points NUB, but we absolutely are a football program lost at sea without a rudder. Their traitor coach is supposed to be so much worse than Mark Richt. We are supposed to be the team who recruited the DREAM TEAM. We are supposed to be the program with the better won/loss record all-time. They are supposed to be the down team this year. We are supposed to be the team who wins The SEC East this year. We were the higher ranked team. Now, they are. We are supposed to have the Best QB in the entire SEC. They are behind their team. We are a fan base who has to have their 11-year head coach here, tell us that we don’t make noise when we stand around at the line of scrimmage trying to figure out what sprint draw to call on 3rd and 15, but when our opponents are 3rd and 1. We are the team that does not run off scholarships. We are the team that has the # 1 RB in the nation. We are the team that taunts ever opponent BEFORE the game on Twitter, not they. We are the team that taunts our opponents after every 4-yard running play, even if the opponent is the dead last worst team in all of America. We are the team that does not play Florida State, Alabama or LSU, as Florida does too. We have the Christian head coach, not anyone else by comparison. We are the team with the coach who has to win now, or be gone according to EVERYONE, not they with their new head coach and far better coaching staff than we have assembled here now 11 years into this run of 2-8 vs them.

It took me a little bit but I have figured it out. Pollyanna is Thomas Brown. Same style, same over abundance of stats. and the same trying to dominate a blog, and trying to impress people on here, when nobody bothers to read anything beyond the first blog if that. Should at least try to be more original.
As bad as roll tidey bowl is as far as actually providing meeaningful input or knowledge of the game goes. Complains and says the OT georgia got from Maryland is in the lowest class league in MD. , the catholic league. Notice he never says anything about the big freshman they also got from MD. that played in the catholic league, and has been playing in games for the tide. The catholic leagues in Maryland are mostly private schools, and they play a good brand of sports there. Sometimes, people write before they think and show what they truely are, which is a UGA hater, without substantial or accurate remarks to back up what they write.
Statistics are like assumptions in a lot of cases and can be manipulated to say what the blogger intends for them to say to prove his/her/it’s opinion. And we all know what opinions are for the most part. Everybody has one, just like everyone also has a certain anatomy part, that is always behind them, so to speak.

What happened to all the pre-season talk???? Note to Ben and the rest of this team: Read the Tucaloosa papers, Gainsville papers, baton Rouge papers….even the Columbia papers- you never read anything about players talking about “new attitudes at the 2-2 point. I would have thought after last years embarrassment 10-6 and the fact your coachs job is likly on the line you would have had that new attitude a bit sooner……..oh and Ben- maybe the fans would buy into your hype about “something special” on Sat if our O line would finally just play on even a Jr. college level……….

Excuse me, what about the 27 to-date who are not in this program this year that were going to play this year ?

Oh, those guys were no good. Bye to all of them – all 27.

I’m proud of our coach. He’s taking lessons from the master. He used to complain about Nick Saban cutting deadwood from his squad to make room for other players with better attitudes and ability. Now he has realized that it’s okay to demand excellence. He has had an epiphany. Good for him!

Last week, Nick Saban advised Crimson Tide fans to participate in the Arkansas game by getting loud when the Hawgs were on offense. Once again, Coach Richt is emulating Coach Saban. We should all be proud. This is a positive development for UGA football. The rumor in Athens is that Coach Richt has signed up for off-season training with Coach Saban’s staff. Just think about it Dawg fans… Next year, we’ll have the Dream Team© being coached by a Dream Coaching Staff. Surely it can’t be long now before our magnificent Head Coach raises the Crystal Football before the adoring Dawg Nation!

Just keep the faith people! Our patience will pay huge dividends, in the long run. I just know it!

We’d be on our way to recovery and much further ahead right now if we bombed Richt out of Athens in January. The UGA brain trust is not unlike the Federal Reserve – - – they just keep kicking the can down the road.

We will lose between 4 and 6 games this year with a schedule that everyone was saying was so easy before the season started. Two in the loss column already and losses to UF and Tech are certain. We could very easily lose to Miss St, Auburn, Vandy and Tenn. Mark it down.

Polyanna,

My opinions have been stated polyanna AKA. Thomas Brown. UGA is a young team, improving each week, and will only get better with experience. For some like you for instance, UGA will never be able to do anything right.
As for Malcome. His problem is simple to solve. Stay healthy and if you truly have the talent, you will rise up on the depth chart. Injuries are going to happen and will, but attitude adjustment have to come with maturity. If you can’t go in practice, you can’t expect to go in a real game.
These young men UGA has for the most part are becoming a very good team, and with time, they might just become an exceptional unit. Anybody expecting thme to come right out of the stable and win the race, are placing unrealistic expectations on this team. I know eveerybody hates to hear, “Wait until next year”, but that is when I think these young men will really shine and UGA will be very formidable. This year they are learning and along the way, are becoming a pretty solid unit. They have some problems but at least at this point, these problems are very fixable, and as long as everybody continues to work with the right attitude, UGA will be just fine this year as well.

Randall Godfrey and David Pollack did attended at the 5-star defensive end’s college announcement here at Thomas County Central High School and it speaks volumes about the impact and reach this high school football player has had.

Chip Towers, ajc.com

Drew chose the University of Georgia over a stack of more than 50 scholarship offers. And that’s one of the reasons Godfrey and Pollack, each former NFL and UGA players, were here. But, they said, it was not the only reason.

“I spoke at a banquet for In The Game Magazine a while back and presented him with an award,” said Godfrey, who hails from nearby Lowndes County. “And the first time he got up and spoke, I was like, “Man, look at this guy!” I was impressed. So we kept in touch after that and I knew I needed to support him regardless of what decision he made. But I’m glad he’s a Georgia guy because this kid has the works. I’m talking about leadership, everything. He’s going to make an impact, not only on the field but off the field.”

Said Pollack: “I just started to get to know him and to speak to him and, my God, I’ve never met a kid like this. I mean, 18 years old, to have your head on this straight, I mean, it’s kind of scary. I was kind of similar to him but I wasn’t as mature. I was growing in my faith and I was learning, but this kid is grounded and he has goals. You listen to his goals and what he wants to do, it’s pretty outstanding. I look forward to working with him anyway I can.”

Drew is a licensed minister who preaches regularly at Paradise Missionary Baptist Church and at various churches across South Georgia. He’s also a consensus 5-star prospect, the No. 1-rated player in America at his position by Rivals.com and the No. 2 player in Georgia per the AJC Fab 50.

The 6-foot-5, 250-pound defensive end will play outside linebacker at Georgia, the same position as Justin Houston, the all-star junior who just departed for the NFL. Drew’s commitment.

“I actually dreamed about this last night,” Drew said in a one-on-one interview after his announcement. “It actually took place before it actually took place. I was a little nervous but not too much. It’s just a relief, like something really heavy has been lifted up off of me.”

“I just want to say to Jay at the end of his announcement, I heard your call,” Drew said. “And now I’ve given an answer. Isaiah Crowell, we’re waiting on you; Antonio Richardson, we’re waiting on you; John Jenkins, we’re waiting on you; and Jeoffrey Pagan, we’re waiting on you. Come join what we’re putting together, the Dream Team. But remember, a dream is only a dream until you make it reality. So I’m calling you out on this one. I hope you’re not afraid to be thrown into the fire. I hope you’re not afraid to be the ones to make the change.”

Easy to support a team when they are great ?

You mean 2002, when we LOST to team not ranked in polls, going 0-11 on 3rd Down Conversions, when in the entire SEC, there was only 1 other SEC team ranked at all in the Coaches’ Poll Top 25 in 2002 ?

That what you mean by when Mark Richt was great ?

Or, is is 2005 when Mark Richt lost to 3 teams 2005 and ended up the # 3 team of just SEC teams in the polls ?

That what you mean by when Mark Richt was great ?

Or, is it 2007, when Mark Richt got hosed by the BCS when LSU beat two (2) teams who finished in the AP Poll Top 10 while Mark Richt beat none.

That what you mean by when Mark Richt was great ?

That is EASY to root for them way back THEN ?

The last 6 seasons, after 2005, we have a 13-13 record vs The SEC East. This season, we have once again proved we cannot beat the top teams, cannot beat the good teams, and I am quite certain with 10 already in the 1st Ten Years, that Mark Richt will once again this season, too, put up a loss to a team who even with their win over him, will not end up in the AP Poll Top 25, even.

Just when was it EASY to root for Mark Richt when he was doing so bloody well, pray tell ?

TRANSFERS are part of the college game. Every scholl will have some every year more than likely. See below :

Updating ex-Tide players who transferred

Posted on September 23, 2011 by Michael Casagrande| 2 Comments

There were eight players on the 2010 Alabama roster who transferred out before this fall. Here’s a quick update on how most are doing at their new football homes:

WR Keiwone Malone (Memphis): Receiving a special exemption to skip the transfer redshirt, the Memphis native has four receptions, but a grand total of two receiving yards. Malone had three catches Saturday against Austin Peay for zero yards.

DB B.J. Scott (South Alabama): Once a five-star recruit, the wide receiver turned defensive back is fitting in with his hometown program. He has 20 tackles — the second most on the team and has one forced fumble. The third-year program lost its first game last week at North Carolina State, 35-13

RB Demetrius Goode (North Alabama): The senior has yet to play in the four UNA games after suffering a hamstring injury.

DB Robby Green (California University of Pennsylvania):After sitting out the 2010 season in Tuscaloosa on a NCAA-ordered suspension, the junior ranks fifth on the team with 17 tackles including one sack. He had 12 stops in last week’s win over East Stroudsburg.

DL Darrington Sentimore (Mississippi Gulf Community College): Suspended for spring practices, the Louisiana native has 15 tackles in three games at the JUCO level. Click here for a story from the Mississippi Press where he talks about Nick Saban’s advice post-Alabama. There are also reports from Knoxville saying Sentimore made an official visit to Tennessee two weeks ago.

DL Brandon Moore (East Mississippi Community College): The Montgomery product didn’t move too far from Tuscaloosa (geographically speaking) where he has 16 tackles include two for losses. Moore also recorded three quarterback hurries.

I couldn’t find information on linebacker Petey Smith who reportedly transferred to Holmes Community College. His name didn’t appear on the roster on the school’s website. The other transfer was running back Corey Grant who is sitting out this season at Auburn.

I think CMR might have really screwed up on this one when he threw Malcome under the bus to the media. Malcome had a problem with nagging injuries in the summer, and Richt made a smart comment to a question about Malcome’s injuries. IMO, Malcome has tremendous potential and they need to be building that guy up, rather than tearing him down. Injuries happen.

Polyanna,

Why did you change your screen name? I would be interested to know since it appears you sure haven’t changed your attitude or your know it all mentality. I am sure all of the UGA fans on this blog, know that you hate UGA, but true fans weather the storms and enjoy the good times when they come. I might want some changes, or think in my opinion that this or that could be changed, but I keep in mind, that I am not an expert either, and therefore, in the overall big picture, my opinion doesn’t matter that much either. Your problem is you think your opinion does. Before I retired, my job depended very much on statisrtics at least as a first look at trends and probabilities, but in the end, staistics could be bent anyway you wanted to bend them and by and far, be as big or little an indicator as pertained to the situation as you wanted to make them. If you always use statisitcs of the past to base your future opinions on, you most likely will fail, as you learn from history, not always follow it. Things change for the most part, except for a person like you, who will hate UGA, no matter what they do.
