Richt left a lot of wiggle room. He knew he was going to get another LOI at some point this cycle. He doesn't/didn't have to mention a specific player.
The early signing period ends on Friday. Either of the 3 mentioned could already have sent their LOIs in but are awaiting to announce at the all star game where they've signed. Bogle said he's signing in February.
I mention salary purely because with Golden, we were cheap and got what we paid for. With Richt, we're not getting the return on investment. But agreed, at this point, Richt has been more of a disappointment than Golden.
From a fan perspective I think its worst because we just came off an era of incompetence and stubbornness. We got what we paid for with Golden.
With Richt, there was so much promise and his salary indicated that the administration seemed like they were ready to start competing with the big boys...
