There is no way we can get all the positive national recognition that South Carolina is getting until Georgia can blowout a highly rated opponent on national TV. Carolina deserves all the credit it gets for exposing overrated UGA on national TV. If the ‘Cocks romp over ranked LSU in Death Valley there will be voices among the talking heads and media who will want to rank them number one even if ‘Bama routs MiZZou. While all that is going Georgia is at Kentucky playing BOBO-ball & Richtball in a boring snoozer game. Richt isn’t stressing execution from UGA instead he’s stressing that the Dogs dream big and pray SCarolina loses to LSU and UF and UGA beats UF in Jax. DREAM ON !!! It’s not going to happen this time. You can’t keep losing what rare big games you play and keep counting on other teams to do your job. Richt is mediocre for even implying the same losing strategy which got him to the SECCG last season only to be blown out. UGA does not deserve to play in the SECCG after the Columbia debacle. They would only get mauled worse by Bama. Saban holds the score down against most of his opponents, but with Ga. recruits at stake, he would pour it on Richt & UGA. Be patient Dogdom we are approaching the final days of 90’sFSU-ACC mediocrity in Athens !!

Tide is Rolling, I would bet that if Richt and Saban swapped jobs for a year that Saban’s boys at UGA would best Richt’s boys at Bama. I’m really tired of Richt not taking responsibility for his job performance. These consistent blowout losses to ranked teams is not a team loss, it’s Richt’s responsibility period. One he refuses to accept. Like I said in a post earlier this week, I could easily accept us losing out this year if it meant Richt leaving. That post was seconded by a season ticket holder.

Flat, you are an intelligent person. I have posted repeatedly that same theory. Some people would be well versed to read a good book on what motivation is, where it comes from, and how you help create the environment that promotes positive motivation. People, that being players and coaches will generally perform to the level of those that surround them. You take a low performer and put them in an environment of high performers and the low performer will improve, conversely you bring high quality people into an environment without expectations and they will come down to the level around them.

This is why I say Richt won with Donnans recruits, when those guys were gone the positive influence disappeared with them. Over the years Richt, his coaches, and his recruits lowered the expectations and changed the culture at UGA. This is where we are, it’s going to take a fresh, tough approach to even compete for a championship. It’s disheartening to me to see so clearly what some can’t see at all.

I didn’t really understand Georgia’s protection schemes against SC. Gates would fall down at Clowney’s feet. Clowney would jump over Gates and then run unimpeded to Murray. I guess they thought Clowney would be laughing too hard and not be able to sack/hit/rush Murray.

nhgamecock – all Gurshall did was occasionally chip Clowney on their way out on a pass pattern, and when they did it was totally ineffective as well.

There are actually football coaches out there who would notice – hey, our tackle is getting abused by the other team’s DE, and he’s destroying our offense – and make an effective adjustment. But evidently none of them work for UGA. Hell, there are probably some coaches out there who would have anticipated that since Clowney is pretty awesome, we need a plan to contain that guy in case Gates can’t handle him. But again, no such coach seems to work for UGA.

Mark Richt is the right man. His teams have been in final national top 10, out of the last 25 years, something like 20 times. He’s got 2 different teams, and coaching staffs to a final top 3 national finish at UGA. He’s won a better percentage than Saban or Spurrier.

Let’s get behind the team, move on, start focusing on how to help this team.

Defensive guys to start playing at Defensive end:
6 foot-7 inches Morant
6-5 fOLOUGHI
6-6 Stripling (one of my favorites)
6-8 Ricky Lowe (amazing play on G-Day)
6-5 Ray Drew (another favorite)

Other outside linebackers to compliment Jarvis:
6-5 Clemons
6-3 Jordan Jenkins

Too much talent to let CWash and AJones get reps, when they’re not getting sacks or pressures.

Most of the smarter posters have already pointed this out ( Flattire, MobileDawg, etc.), to win championships the head coach has to be obsessed. Richt is not obsessed with winning championships. For the great coaches football is their #1 calling in life. Sure they have other interests, but football is #1. It comes natural to them. All they think about is football. They pore over the details, they preach fundamentals, they learn from their mistakes. They’re never satisfied. They sweat the small details. Football is not Richts #1 calling. His #1 calling is to walk in the Lord’s path to the best of his ability. Football is just his job (That is why McGarrity had to tell him to put some of these other things down so he could concentrate on football). Richt’s philosophy is to live the Word and everything else will fall into place. He’s a big picture guy. He is not a details guy. In all of his years of coaching he still can’t make simple in-game adjustments. His teams lack the focus and attention to detail that championship teams have. Also, he really doesn’t have the fire for football the great ones have and the team picks up on that. I think he has recognized this about himself. That is why he hired Grantham, but he has neutered Grantham. A strength of Richt is that he is steadfast. So I don’t expect the Dawgs to crumble. They will beat everybody on the remaining schedule, but UF. However, I don’t see them winning in JAX. Even if the team is better prepared than they were in Columbia, it will come down to the little things and UF will win. Richt is a good man, but he has no business being a head coach. He should realize this and resign.

He’s like Kruger from play now on sienfeld…” Im not too worried about it”. Mr McGarity – PLEASE, PLEASE fire this clown today. And if not today do it the day after we get killed again in Jax. How does a coach go 3-10 (and dont kid yourself that will be our record) against his biggest rival and keep his job?

What more would it take ……the guy will be 3-10 versus Florida along with the 3 game losing streak to Spurrier’s ‘Cocks. UF is back and Carolina has proven they are superior to Georgia.

All you doom and gloomers, read this from LBH. Not that bad after all.
“Georgia got our rear ends kicked on Saturday night. I get that, and am as grumpy about it as the next guy. But enough already with the woe is me.

Mark Richt has the best overall and SEC records in school history. He is 8-4 against Tennessee, 3-1 against Alabama, 7-5 against South Carolina, 7-4 against Auburn, and 10-1 against Tech. 7-4 in bowl games. This year’s team is 5-1, ranked 14th, and is likely to win at least 10 games. If we can repeat last year’s victory over Florida in Jacksonville and get our third win in five years there, there’s a good chance Georgia returns to Atlanta to play for the SEC championship. The only thing Richt hasn’t done is win a national championship.

It took Dooley 17 years to win one. It took Bear Bryant 17 years to win his first. It took Bobby Bowden 27 years and Mack Brown 22 years. Nick Saban took 10 years, and it was 13 before he had an undefeated season. A national championship is not easy to get, and is not the right measurement anyway. After all, Larry Coker and Gene Chizik have both held the crystal football high, but I’m guessing most of us wouldn’t be too excited about hiring either of those guys to come to Athens. I know that fan is short for fanatic, but try to keep calm and carry on.

Be glad that the bar has been raised at Georgia to the point that ten or eleven wins just about every year is no longer considered good enough. And then remember who put that bar there, and be glad you have him.”
What do you think?

Go Dawgs!!

We just got absolutely drilled, humiliated and exposed on national television and these are the types of comments we here from Richt about practice the week after:

“We had a good day; we had a fun day; we competed,” Richt said. “We treated it like a spring practice. We had a lot of things to work on and, since we weren’t going to compete Saturday, we decided to go out and compete with a scrimmage today. And we had some great competition.”

Unbelievable. Simply shocking. This guy isn’t a football coach. He’s Mr. Rodgers.

Oh, and about those South Carolina D-ends, their skills were pretty well documented BEFORE the game. If Theus’ and Gates’ eyes were going to be opened it should have happened then. Yep, let’s just sweep the fact that this coaching staff did a poor job of preparing them for the game and move on. Nothing to see here folks.

No matter how good Saban, Miles, and a couple other coaches are, only one team will be national champions. That leaves a lot of losers. UGA competes well in the toughest conference.

The brand may be soiled to the sports pundits, who get paid a lot of money to be wrong a lot of the time (kinda like AJC sports writers–but it’s not a bad gig). Revenue is solid, and except for the frustrations of rabid fans who can’t stand being tormented by the other teams’ rabid fans, UGA supporters continue to love Fall, Saturdays, and looking forward to the next game. Okay, I got it. We’re not Alabama, LSU, and maybe Carolina and Florida, too. But, were we ever? Really? And for how long?

I don’t think anyone is saying that. You blind homer apologists are putting those words in our mouths because you don’t have a leg to stand on in this argument. Of course we can’t win championships every year, but we should be able to put on a respectable showing against top teams and not get our azzes blown out of the stadium like has happened so many times now that I’ve lost count. Heck, it wouldn’t be too much to ask for us to win a couple of those games every now and then.

“UGA competes well in the toughest conference”

We most certainly do not. We cannot beat the top teams. Not only can we not beat them, we can’t even compete with them. 42-30 Bama. 49-10 Florida. 45-19 Tennessee. 41-17 Florida. 49-31 Auburn. 42-10 LSU. 35-7 South Carolina. Not to mention losses to powerhouses like Georgia Tech, Colorodo and Central Florida thrown in for good measure.

The problem is that Richt & his staff are teaching these kids that losing is acceptable and to forget and move on. These kids are ALL top notch SEC athletes! At this level the loser mentality is not OK. Richt needs to make it clear to players & coaches that winning is the ONLY option in Athens.

I remember watching Tim Tebow in 2009, during a press conference after losing to Ole’ Miss, give a emotional apology & vow to Gator fans to never loss another game. That’s the mentality that Richt & staff needs to instill in Athens! This we loss it’s OK, move on mentality wont win ball games in the SEC.

Saben wins because he made it clear to players & coaches that losing is not exceptable.
The emotion and winning mentality is missing. Until CMR & staff figure this out UGA will continue to waste 5 star talent & lose against ranked teams.

I stopped commenting on the blogs for quite a while during the off season. Primary reason was I really didn’t feel good about Richt and company and what was in store for us. I still don’t feel good about our coaches. I guess I should now begin practicing what I preach, at home, to employees, colleagues, etc., If you don’t have anything good to say just don’t say anything at all.

There are a lot of positives about our program, it’s stable, well funded, and filled with great kids and good atheletes. The cancerous recruits are gone for the most part. The only down side, granted it’s a huge one, is we should be better than we are. We should be “competing” for championships.

I hold Adams, McGarity, and Mark Richt accountable for our inability to compete at the highest level. I’m over and out with my complaints, so until I see something that changes my mind about our ability to compete I’m through bashing a group of coaches mired in incompetence.

One of the main reasons why we hired Grantham and brought in the 3-4 defense is so we could blitz a lot more , putting constant pressure on the Quarterback. For some reason we are not putting very much pressure on the QB at all. Every week Georgia give up three to four hundred yards and we are averaging giving up over 20 points a game. Our defense is ranked nearly 60TH with a senior defense. WHAT HAS HAPPENED? The suspensions and the few defensive linemen that we lost to graduation couldn’t have meant that much. I am becoming less and less a fan of the 3-4 if we do not have the talent and depth to run it properly and I hope things improve a lot the last 6 games or I will be all for going back to the 4-3. I hope Grantham can turn things around . All the position coaches need to be closely evaluated. When South Carolina can dominate us like they did Georgia has a weakness somewhere and something needs to be done . Ignoring our coaching problems will not get the job
done.
The biggest problem we have with the players is at Quarterback. Murray just can not stay focused and he lets his emotions get the best of him. Way too much history not being able to come through in the big games.

OK, let’s anoint Muschamp the next Saban because he is off to a good start this season. There is still a lot of football left to be played.

And just because Muschamp MAY end up being a very good coach does not mean that Smart will be.

Dooley was an Asst when he took over UGA

How about Dan Mullen

Muschamp is looking good at least he can beat ranked teams ours cant

Mike Leach was an Asst before he took Texas Tech

Im willing to bring him to UGA; he was something else at KY as their OC

Like one of the posters stated; if Smart wasnt worth it Saban wouldnt have him on his staff period

I am not buying Muschamp, yet anyway, until he shows he can beat UGA. I guess our gator friends can agree there too. So far his defense looks formidable.

If he can beat either USC or UGA this year, he will be a headache for UGA for years to come.

Dan Mullen? HA

Did you watch MSU’s game at home versus LSU last season? Down 2 scores with 4 minutes left and all 3 timeouts left he did not even attempt to get back into the game…he was content to lose and keep the score “close.” Took all of his timeouts home with him. Same way that Kiffin tried to keep it close and not try to win against Florida. That is weak, and it is not what I would want out of a head coach.

No worries guys. The players had fun at practice this week according to Richt. I guess they’ll be having their team banquet at the local Chucky Cheese to celebrate the season. All the players will get those cheap plastic trophies for participating like we all did in little league. Their parents will be so proud. Its not about winning and losing when you’re making $3 million a year. Its about having fun.

Mark Richt needs to retire and hand over the reigns to a serious football coach that is serious about winning.

Thanks.

Kingdaddy, thanks for the kind remarks. I’m not leaving the blog, just refraining from the same old tired criticism of Richt. When I give my heart or support to something I go in 100%. Take golf, I haven’t been able to shoot a round under 90, yet. I keep looking for new ways, mentally and physically to get there. Tweaking, changing, etc. That sometimes frustrates me as much as UGA football, but I don’t give up. I take failure personally, I like the opportunity to try and fix things. If you can understand that you can probably understand my frustration with UGA and Coach Richt. The problems are so obvious to me.

@Mobile Dawg

I would suggest working harder on your putting. That is where you will shave the most strokes off of your game. And off the tee do not be afraid to sacrifice distance for accuracy. Keep the ball in play in the short grass and you will find the game much easier…breaking 90 will be quite easy, you will find. That’s just bogey golf. Good luck!

THeir are four 1st rounders on Kiper’s board on the ‘12 defense. If you don’t think that D will have 10 players in the League within the next 2 years you are crazy.

THe D hasn’t gotten any better? They’ve gotten exponentially better each year until this year. Their actually are drawbacks to having a high powered offense (so called at least). Between 5 play scoring drives and turnovers I bet the D spends more time on the field than the O. THey aren’t cyborgs.

I quit golf 4 years ago because it was too frustrating. I would have 10 to 14 birdie putts a round and only make 1 or 2 of them. Any level of player can get to the point where they accept they will never get any better. It was easy for me to quit at 56 years old, four years ago, I had to play every tournament from the back tees and at 5′6″ tall I couldn’t stay up in distance with the taller golfers.
I could have you shooting under 90 in one month.
aldogg2121 was right do not sacrifice accuracy for distance. Practice the one , two and three feet putts a lot. Golfers who shot over 90 miss a lot of one to two feet putts. When I played I played 150 rounds a year . Week- in golf won’t get the job done. It depends on your age and how bad you want it. Good luck.

We aren’t gonna change coaches, but if we did, with the exception of a half-dozen coaches with huge buyouts, or just happy where they are, UGA would have its pick of any of a couple dozen coaches, all of whom win more games with half the talent.

Hey, Richt had a pretty good run, but HE lost to underdogs, even with his best teams,and that kept him from the Big Game. His time is past – it should be obvious to the Fan-boys and to Richt himself.

I really can’t figure out why he hasn’t just retired by now, what with all the blowouts he get handed to him. He should be embarrassed by those blowouts, over and over.

Been a dawg fan for 40 years. I’ve never seen a more perfect convergence of talent and schedule set UGA up for success. The coaching staff was completely exposed as inept, lazy, overmatched and incompetent.

Q: If not now, when?
A: Never (with the current coaching staff)

If our annual goal is to finish 3rd to 7th in the SEC, then by all means, let’s keep the CMR regime in place. If we aspire to something bigger, immediate change is needed.

When we went 6-7, Richt deserved and was granted a chance to get things on track. He dismissed players with attitude problems, replaced coaches and brought in amazing talent.

The net result? We are 28 points worse than South Carolina or crapsakes!

The Richt apologists and sympathizers have returned from the dead after the 35-7 rout. Kingdaddy and Dawg in Lex are like cockroaches and rats they jumped off the UGA ship when Spurrier sank it in Columbia. Now here the come crawling back spinning more lies and propaganda to try damage control the rout for their master Mark Richt. These defeatists and fascists have no credibility whatsoever and between Kingdaddy and DawginLex combined they have the football i.q. of a single common foghorn chicken!LOL! I ain’t lyin’ y’all, heres a sample of the misinformation these liars and cheats didn’t have the guts to print last night at primetime when I called him out :
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
KINGDADDY mindless rant: UGA will survive. What doesn’t kill ya, makes you stronger. We just need CMR to man-up and make some changes to his game-plan, both sides of the ball. But he does need, to admit we have problems first.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Top Dawg Translation: It’s okay to be routed 35-7 in a big SEC game. We just got to get used to being blown out and CMR needs to take a little more credit for big game routs by changing up the gameplan a little bit. We’ve been routed under Richt and survived, so we’ve shown we can survive future big routs. There’s a few problems but things are okay as long as Richt remain head coach. Do you see what I’m saying, part of the problem at UGA is you got idiot Richt enablers like Kingdaddy and his life partners DawginLex and Brainiac, who love Richt more than they love telling lies to each other on this blog. These delusional reprobates mindlessly guzzle the krytonite pink punch then poison this blog with asinine misinformation. They don’t know squat about football and will mindlessly support support Richt while he steals millions of dollars and renders a once great institution nationally irrelevant. Finebaum on his radio show constantly mocks and ridicule these mindless morons ! LOL! When Richt is retired soon I’m sure Brianiac, Queerdaddy, and MuttInLex follow him as disciples.

As much as I love the Dawgs I think the sooner us fans accept the reality of the situation the better off we’ll be. I will of course continue to root for the Dawgs just as feverishly as I always have as well as continue to be a very proud alumni. After this latest debacle against a top 10 opponent though I’m forced to accept the reality.

I suppose I should just be grateful that I’m a fan of a consistently pretty good team instead of some perennial loser or team that goes 5-7/6-6 season after season. That’s what UGA seems to be under Richt…a consistently pretty good team that every now and again wins a division/conference championship and at least gets included in the NC conversations a few times. I’m completely convinced now though that UGA will never be a great team or a team that anyone utterly dreads having to play ala the current iteration of Bama.

Considering the big game numbers under Richt, the most glaring truth being the 1-9 record against top 10 teams, I just can’t believe UGA will ever break through to that next level with Richt. Not only does UGA lose to top 10 teams, they usually fold like a lawn chair and don’t even get off the bus as exemplified by this latest disaster last Saturday. I realize I’ve never coached or played football but I can’t for the life of me figure out how our guys are never up for these big top 10 opponent games. It usually starts at the top and we all know what that situation currently is. If Florida is still in the top 10 when we play them, according to the factual historic numbers we’ll have a 90% chance of losing. I have plenty of faith in us having a nice little 10-2 season but yet again the 2 losses are the 2 games that mattered and meant the most.

The record against top 10 competition doesn’t lie. If one of the goals of the UGA athletic department is for the football team to win a national championship, how can they look at these numbers and ever believe Richt is the guy to make it happen.

So, as I said, the sooner we accept the reality that UGA is a consistently good team but will never be a great team under Richt the better off we are. Apparently the athletic department has accepted it so we should spare ourselves the future pain of unrealized expectations and accept it ourselves. Pretty sad that I have the “man, it’s ok if they lose a tough game against a really tough opponent that they at least show up for and don’t embarrass themselves” attitude at this point.

The best thing to do in games like last Saturday is what I’ve done for a few years now in games like that and what me and my fellow UGA fan buddy that was up visiting me in Jersey did about 12 minutes into the first quarter…turn the volume on the game off and turn on the Benny Hill theme song. It at least makes the comedy of errors kind of amusing. We even started laughing by the 2nd quarter. Time to start focusing more on the appreciation of being a fan of a consistently good team I suppose.

Maybe the Falcons and/or the Braves will actually win a post season game/series this year…one down, one to go, lol

I admit I too started laughing as the rout started and ensued. UGA down 7-0, I laughed at QB Murray after he got a pass blocked for an INT and walked off the field with that crazy spoiled brat expression to the sideline. HA! UGA down 14-0 !! ESPN zooms the camera in Richt’s expressionless mug. UGA & Murray go 3 and out. SCarolina punt 70 yd put return on Richt’s elite special eam corp made up of walk-on that earned scholarships. UGA down 21-0 !! Richt still clueless and expressionless finally rakes a hand through his receding hairline. HA ! HA! UGA finally mounts a long drive. It’s 4th down on the Carolina 2. What a minute where’s the FB & Gurley, why aren’t we in a power I formation. Oh I forgot O-line can’t run block in goalline situations. Murray lines O up in the shotgun at the two & dumps the ball off for a one yard gain on 4th down. UGA WR stopped at the goaline.DAGGUMMIT !! Cocks ball ! Richt still emotionless, Murray about to cry. Game Over ! LOL !

Second Half. 28-0 Cocks ! Richt finally calls a meaningless team huddle! HA! 35-0 Cocks! I changed channels to WVA-Texas. Then I started LMFAO ! Not at UGA, but at all the delusionalists like Kingdaddy, DawginLex, Chazzo, Brainiac, and Columbus when I thought of all the smack and sh!t those morons talked all year long. Everybody but those fools saw this debacle coming ! Hey Reprobates as former President Ronald Reagan once said : ” Words are one thing, actions are another.” The writing is on the wall your master is doomed! Richt must beat UF to save his job ! LOL! How sweet and ironic that one of Georgia’s sons now will be UGA’s avenging angel.

Former Dawg & UF headcoach Will Muschamp will do his alma mater a tremendous favor if he routs Richt in Jacksonville. Murray has never beat a ranked team, but they had fun in practice today just like last week before the beatdown. If Richt goes 3-10 vs UF he must go. Give him the buy out LOL !

kd, “..Not as Bad as it Looks?” I’m not even gonna read something with a title like that. That guy need to get less mellow. We have lost 5 games, 3 in blowout fashion, in a two year period in which we had favorable schedules in both, as well as almost unprecedented talent on the field with a veteran QB. Is that good?

Here’s a little more, “recent history” as I see it. The past 4+ seasons:

20 losses with 9 blowouts. Here are the blowout scores: 30-41, 10-49, 10-24, 19-45, 17-41, 31-49, 21-35, 10-42, 7-35.

“Not as Bad as it Looks?” 20 losses with 9 blowouts is not bad in 4.5 seasons?

Without looking, I bet that record puts UGA in the bottom 5 of the SEC in losses, and blowout losses.

The worst thing about the loss is watching die-hard UGA fans turn against each other. Most everyone of my post since the loss have demanded an accountability from CMR. This is yet to come, so it will probably have to come from McGarity in the form of changing his staff or outright termination of Richt. Watching my brothers let “OUTSIDERS” twist them into knots, is distressing but I can’t speak for you or anyone else. We have always had each others back so I cringe when I see topdog agreeing with you 100%. Are you kidding me? He is a POS, and if he is at your back, then you are not the fan I thought you were.

The question is do we want a program that rarely wins a game against top 25 teams and even more rarely against top 10 teams. Then go 9-3 or maybe 10 and 2, but we know we have’t got a chance at the SEC or the national championship. If this is not the kind of program we want it is time to change CMR and most of his staff now. How many sec coaches have come into the sec since CMR has and are having better teams ?

Josh Harvey-Clemmons from Valdosta and Ray Drew BOTH playing on D.
The guys playing for UGA on D are lazy and dumb. Changes need to move in some new faces. the upper classmen on UGA’s D are awaiting the NFL draft and so, I have no use for them.

gooooooo Dogs !!!

Why the hell won’t Richt and BooBoo turn the whole damn offense over to Murray?

For Pete’s sake. He’s a third year starter, yet, it seems that every other play, Murray is looking over to get the next play that will certainly be a draw.

It’s just comical how badly we look on offense against better defenses.

And don’t get me started on the Almight Grantham and his inate ability to give up 30+ a game versus better offenses. That stat includes all the loses last year.

Why you ask? Well when you’re only 5′7″, you can’t see what the defense is doing and you have to look over at the sidelines…..silly question
