For those defending Richt...

CMR came through the door saying the team was too small and not fast enough.

Some claimed he was trying to manage expectations and give himself an excuse.

... But maybe he was just telling the truth?

... Maybe he's crystal clear on what his vision for this team is, and the current roster doesn't reflect that?

... And because this isn't a video game, where you can just change your offense in the settings; And what we run requires practice and repetition, he can't just scrap the offense he wants to run to cater to the current roster. Nor, should he.

He's running what he wants to run. He's putting it on film so that he can teach it to the team using Miami game film, instead of UGA film.

And though the offensive results are not close to being ideal, CMR is playing the long-game with this season and this team.


It doesn't mean he doesn't want to win every game. But he's not going to sacrifice what he wants the program to look like beyond 2017 for the sake of a few wins in 2016.

You may disagree with that decision ... But I think he's making the right call.

And, yeah ... Hes' gonna have to deal with the wrath of the message board crew until the offense does better. But I assume most reasonable fans get what he's doing, and understand it will probably take until next season or 2018 to bear fruit.

Also ... For folks citing VT and Justin Fuente as an example of what could/should be done in year 1 ... Folks in JUCO say Evans at QB is the closest things they've seen to Cam Newton. That kids fits Fuente's offense, perfectly, and it wouldn't look the same without him running it ... Which is why they played him against Pitt, and he only had 1 leg!

Let Richt get some guys that fit what he wants to do on O before deciding how good or bad he is at calling plays.

You can see him trying to tinker the offense to fit the needs of the OL and Kayaa, but it just isn't working.

Richt needs his guys in here to run his stuff. We don't have the quality of RBs to run downhill at people on 1st and 2nd down (**** we couldn't even gain 1 yard in two attempts against ND). We don't have the OL to push anyone off the ball (they aren't talented enough or strong enough). And we have players out of position, e.g. no true Tackle on the roster.



Kayaa, for all the crap he's taking, isn't even the main problem with this offense. It's lack of a run game, and the Ol unable to block long enough for Richt's play action passing game.

It's just gonna take a couple years. Richt isn't a first read spread guy.

His own guys? Right now this class looks like ****! If he wants to run a physical team it starts up front. I think he needs to hit the JUCO ranks and grad transfer list for lineman....all other positions aren't that bad.IMO if Miami doesn't add some experienced lineman with at least two stud frosh.....its going to be the same ole song!
