Coley coming back?

Nice to be able to read news as its released. Golden would have hid this news until he lost out on a major recruit and then he would have released it.

It will be interesting to see if Richt changes the run-heavy offense he's had, now that he'll be calling the plays. UGA didn't really have a dominant WR, except for AJ Green, but even he didn't have huge production while he was there.

What are you talking about?

UGA's QB's threw plenty under Richt

2001: 2,929 yards (12 games)
2002: 3,431 (14 games)
2003: 3,435 (14 games)
2004: 2,972 (12 games)
2005: 2,968 (13 games)
2006: 2,397 (13 games)
2007: 2,579 (13 games)
2008: 3,700 (13 games)
2009: 2,615 (13 games)
2010: 3,151 (13 games)
2011: 3,423 (14 games)
2012: 3,975 (14 games)
2013: 4,043 (13 games)
2014: 2,549 (13 games)
2015: 2,362 (13 games)

2001-2004: David Greene
2005: D.J. Shockley
2006-2008: Matthew Stafford
2009: Joe Cox
2010-2013: Aaron Murray
2014: Hutson Mason
2015: Grayson Lambert

You can see that they actually threw it more under Aaron Murray, and threw it more later in his tenure than his beginning, even with David Greene. I throw out the last two years because I'm a better QB than Grayson Lambert and Hutson Mason.

UGA had Fred Gibson and Terrence Edwards before AJ Green, and Edwards had an 1,000 yard season in 2002, while Gibson had 758 that same year. Massaquoi had close to 1,000 yards in 2008. Tavarres King had close to 1,000 yards in 2012. Malcolm Mitchell had 865 yards this year with DannyBoyCane as QB.

Even after Rosenscum probably assured him that he was a second rounder at worst for the last month and more than likely offered any woman in his life a "loaner" Escalade? Good for Coley if true.

Are you implying that this upright, outstanding, selfless, honest, devoted guardian of our young men is somehow questionable in his dealings?

I would never impugn the chatacter of a man whose moral fiber is as pure as the driven snow.

That's what I thought. We all know he works for free out of love for the kids.

Unbelievable? Really? Guy hasn't done ****all since being here and it's unbelievable he is returning to bolster his draft stock? Also, he should wrap up a degree by that time so kill 2 birds with 1 stone.
 
We do not like Rosenhaus because he was one of the agents who were directly coercing players
to come out for the draft. He was admonished for doing so, subsequently banned for "early"
contact by UM Admin.

He had an awful sophmore season but to say he's done nothing is an exaggeration. Kid had over 500 yds as a freshman and was our best WR this season. So yes it's a huge deal to get back our best WR for the upcoming season. If he can stay healthy he can work his way into the top 2 rounds.

solid lookup, I was just going to look at his history and try to see what kind of offensive styles we can expect to see.

Do you think the passing/running ratio (although consistent while under richt) is more of an indication of the coordinators or something richt has them run? just curious if anyone has any insight on richt. I know while at FSU he led a very pass-friendly offense as a coordinator

That's not necessarily a 3rd round grade...That can be anywhere after the first two rounds including undrafted.
Thats why the draft advisory board does that. Either you are likely a 1st or 2nd round pick, or you shouldn't entering the draft, because it's too risky.
 
UGA went run heavy due to the fact that they didn't have the star QB after Aaron Murray left, but had Gurley, Marshall, Michel, and Chubb. Its excusable to do that with that stable of backs. But we don't have that here....so im sure it will be focused on Kaaya and his skills
 
Here's some more info.

MARK RICHT
Georgia
2012 - 487 rushes/366 passes (853 total plays) = 57%/43%
2011 - 582 rushes/434 passes (1016 total plays) = 57%/43%
2010 - 455 rushes/359 passes (814 total plays) = 56%/44%
2009 - 447 rushes/346 passes (793 total plays) = 56%/44%
2008 - 426 rushes/400 passes (826 total plays) = 52%/48%
2007 - 509 rushes/365 passes (874 total plays) = 58%/42%
2006 - 426 rushes/342 passes (768 total plays) = 55%/45%
2005 - 455 rushes/363 passes (818 total plays) = 56%/44%
2004 - 463 rushes/363 passes (826 total plays) = 56%/44%
2003 - 553 rushes/460 passes (1013 total plays) = 55%/45%
2002 - 517 rushes/443 passes (960 total plays) = 54%/46%
2001 - 424 rushes/350 passes (774 total plays) = 55%/45%

Georgia Totals - 5744 rushes/4591 passes (10335 total plays) = 56%/44%

Career Totals - 5744 rushes/4591 passes (10335 total plays) = 56%/44%

To put that in perspective, here is the SEC as of 2012

Bret Bielema – 65% Run & 35% Pass
Will Muschamp – 63% Run & 37% Pass
Dan Mullen – 62% Run & 38% Pass
Les Miles – 60% Run & 40% Pass
James Franklin – 59% Run & 41% Pass
Nick Saban – 57% Run & 41% Pass
Gus Malzahn – 57% Run & 41% Pass
Gary Pinkel – 56% Run & 44% Pass
Mark Richt – 56% Run & 44% Pass
Hugh Freeze – 54% Run & 46% Pass
Butch Jones – 52% Run & 48% Pass
Steve Spurrier – 49% Run & 51% Pass

Georgia has had excellent run and pass numbers, always within the ideal ratio for a warm weather balanced offense. It only seems run heavy because the Canes have been ridiculously pass dependent for years.

More than anything, the Canes need to return to a physical north/south approach so the opponent can be brutalized on the ground when the vulnerability is there. By far the most sickening bowl game was San Diego State's thrashing of Cincinnati. Rocky Long in that game did exactly what I chastised Miami for failing to do, after attending the Cincinnati roader in person on Thursday night. San Diego State unapologetically used the classic I formation and ran smack at Cincinnati all day. Nothing serious, a 42-0 lead at one point. Cincinnati had a couple of big defensive linemen but otherwise the front seven was thin upfield types. The entire defense doesn't want any part of an opponent who relentlessly pounds them.

James Coley was such a moron in that Thursday night game he sat back and relied on pass plays mixed with flatfooted handoffs from the shotgun. So many stupid teams these days think those shotgun handoffs are an even substitute for traditional rushing plays. Not even close. Miami and USC have fallen prey to the stupidity. Those plays are hit and miss. The blocking is delayed and edge rushers too often are free to attack. There's far too much reliance on timing and creating seams for burst running plays as opposed to wearing down a defense for a dependable and wonderfully punishing blend of 4 to 8 yard gains. That San Diego State/Cincinnati game was such a perfect blueprint I would have wanted Rocky Long for head coach or offensive coordinator if he were 20 years younger.
 
what the **** do Cincinnati and San Diego State have to do with anything? Did you lose $ on it?

It's not even a 3rd round grade. It's a 3rd day grade which = Round 4 or later. Apparently the Advisory Board told him that he wasn't anticipated to go in the 1st or 2nd round and UM went back and asked for addl info and that's when Coley was advised of the 3rd day grade.
 
Richt will make Coley look like Peter Warrick against most of the opponents on our schedule.
I hope he works his butt off and improves his draft stock immensely.
