Richt made some bad coaching staff decisions at Georgia. I hope he's got it straight at Miami. M
I think all of this was more about Richt hiring a certain type of person verse hiring the best coach available. Notice all his coaching hires were devote christians. I am a christian, but I also know to hire the best person for the job. Richt just let go the second best strength and conditioning coach in college football to hire some no names from Georgia. Already has the alumni in Miami up in arms over that move.
In-fighting happens when individual coaches care more about making themselves look good than doing what's best for the team. Notice that Ekeler points out all the freshmen on special teams. It seems to me that Pruitt refused to let his best defensive players perform special teams duties. Pruitt wanted to keep his best defensive players healthy and fresh for defensive duties. Pruitt knows that his coaching future is based solely on how well Georgia's defense performs, so that's what he cared about. Meanwhile, UGA's special teams coaches surely wanted as many great players as possible on special...See More
Christopher Brown how do you know all this? Are you an insider? I think it was more Coach Pruitt wanted to win and practice hard while Richt wanted to raise boys into men. After all, Jordan Jenkins said the best practices of his career at Georgia were after Mark Richt left during bowl prep week. That really says a lot, plus as head coach you should control your staff, if you can't control the staff, you can't control much of anything else. Maybe Pruitt was just tired of losing the games they should have won. I just want to know how you know this information.....
Is this guy suggesting that Swasey was the second best S&C coach in college football? This is from the comments section which has some interesting tidbits from various porsters as to what was going on there. Seems like the UGA program was a complete disaster this past season and probably for two maybe three years.

My guess is he's referring to letting go of Mark Hocke.
Neither Swasey or Hocke are the 2nd best SC in the country anyways. Not by a long shot.

No, I think he is referring to Swasey given this quote: "Richt just let go the second best strength and conditioning coach in college football to hire some no names from Georgia. Already has the alumni in Miami up in arms over that move."
Which is total bull**** - Swasey is one of the reasons we're in our era of irrelevance.
I'm curious about the Jordan Jenkins thing. He was one of the players that spoke up when Richt was fired:
https://www.dawgnation.com/football/team-news/jordan-jenkins-on-richts-firing-it-aint-right
Who knows? I'm not terribly concerned. Those kind of stories always come out after a coach leaves.
“I feel like we banded together, and I feel like for a bowl practice, I feel the last week of practice we had in Athens was one of the best or one of the most competitive bowl practices we’ve had in my four years here,” outside linebacker Jordan Jenkins said. “We were competing. We had a couple of friendly brawls in the first two days of practice. Normally, the first bowl practices are pretty bad, and by four or five, you get guys back at it like they used to. But we hit it off from day one, just getting after it and competing with each other.”

He went out like a ***** in my book.
He also said ****tenheimer was a good coach , so he's a ***** and retarded
On what if anything you’d change about college football coaching if you could …
“People talk about hiring great recruiters; I think that’s an absolute joke. If you’re labeled that, 99 percent of the time that means you can’t coach a lick. That’s a fact. There are very few exceptions. Ed Orgeron is a fantastic recruiter and he’s probably the best defensive line coach of them all. The guy is big-time. It’s great to recruit 5-stars, but then they come in and play like 2-stars. It’s too bad that’s how this profession is, but that’s part of the deal now.
“It’s not about recruiting, it’s about evaluating. That’s one of the things I learned from Ed Orgeron. It doesn’t matter if he’s a 2-star or a 5-star, it’s how you evaluate it and what you think you can do with him. That’s what I learned from him. Again, you recruit them. But there’s only about five players in the country that are totally different than everybody else. Everybody else can fall into a similar category. At that point it’s about developing and teaching. It’s about evaluating and developing your talent. And that’s a fact.”
^^^^^Exactly... and Wario Crystalball and Al Folden are perfect examples of recruiters who can't coach for sheeeet. Now sadly, there are some, like Mark Dorito, who can't recruit or coach, yet stay on our former staph for 5 years running our program down.On what if anything you’d change about college football coaching if you could …

I've been saying that for years. "great recruiter" is a euphemeism for absolute **** coach. That's why I laugh when all these dumbasses pitch these ****ty coaches like Lane Kiffin as the UM head coach because he can "recruit."
