you can have Jeff Thomas back and lose Mark Richt, would you have believed it?

What a turn of events. Never seen anything like it..

Now, Im the biggest JT4 homer on the board, but this is on him now to resurrect his career and make this work. His contract year is coming up and there are already major questions about his attitude and stability He owes it to this program, Manny and himself to make this work. I'm excited for him and this second chance but also cautious as they move forward. But make no doubt about it, with the Enos Electric Company coming to UM, JT can have a huge campaign. I spoke to Jeff for about 3 hours yesterday while playing Atari 2600 through my rotary phone and we discussed this at length( ahem, cough cough)

As for Manolo, his savagery level is off the charts and Im astounded by how he's making things happen early on. This isn't to crown him, just yet, not a single down of football has been played under his direction but it's clear he 'gets it' on many levels that Richt simply couldnt or wouldn't

But these roster upgrades are eye-opening and he actually has me intrigued about what he might pull off on signing day

Yeah, the prehistoRicht era seems so distant, now

Just look what's happened in 3 weeks. It's a stunning turn in our favor.
 
Not sure how I feel about this Monolo name. That would imply Manny’s not the man like Montana. 🤷‍♂️

Yup... I watched our bowl game and signing day with no expectations and in complete states of numbness. I figured that we were in for another 1-2 years of this and so I needed to pace myself mentally and emotionally for the long haul. It's unreal where we're at now.

it wasn't an either or. frankly 2 months ago I just wanted him to fire his offensive line coach and find an legit oc. Thomas quit on team I love Thomas talent but he was kicked/quit for a reason. and no it wasn't pastor richt **** people get on him for it was because he wouldn't do his punishment when given it and quit once sat for 2 series that's he quit going to practice meetings because was benched for 2 series. now im glad got Thomas ack talent wise but this k id had this kind of issue in hs not a new thing. frankly if richt had been willing to hire enos as his oc id of been fine with richt back but he wasn't so he retired
 
I know the ink's still drying, but Manny's working on a raise already.

I watched Rosier throw that INT and I just turned it off.

How sad that was for me.

Then FSU gets Briles (not implying he’s the GOAT just seemed we were taking so many punches) and I thought the **** news couldn’t get any worse. Felt like we were just getting kicked while we were down.

Then, something happened...

I saw it scroll across my screen and I literally jumped up and down. I was like Richt must've been told to fire offensive staff members.
 
Biggest turnaround since Dr. Dre retired the sequined jumpsuit from World Class Wrecking Kru and immediately transformed into a gangster with NWA.

That's exactly how I felt. When the blowout started I was thinking that this could be Richt's Clemson game but i figured we were stuck for another 1-2 seasons...then Richt quit and didn't force the buyout issue. Now all this. It's hard to believe that someone is actually making the kind of moves we want.

I am not getting excited until I see him catching passes on the regular. I am glad they gave him a chance but to be honest these things are usually signs of character issues that cant be resolved by simply giving him a second chance. As of right now I would give it a 25% chance he catches another ball for the U. I expect they will have a super short leash on dude and I am just not sure how he is going to be able to reign in the entitlement enough to make it all the way till the season begins, Pulling for him.
 
I'm happy that JT4 is back, but he needs to be on a short leash.

If he becomes a toxic presence in the locker room, bounce his ***. Quick
