Is coaching partly to blame??? Absolutely, but to sit there and say youth isn’t one of the issue then you are being naive also. It’s a combination of youth, lack or talent and coaching. Richt lost Richards, Walton, Herndon and two starting O-line from last year. 3 NFL players is hard to make up for when you just got here a few years ago and were handed a pile of **** from the past staff. This team just got off probation and hasn’t even had 85 players on the roster. If you don’t think that impacts performance than you are also blind. This team was not a jagurnaut coming off a ten win season. Last season was a lot of luck. Anyone who thought we were running the table this year, doesn’t understand football. We started an absolute bum at QB for 7 games. Rosier wouldn’t play on any other D1 team. The impact of that can’t be overstated enough. Perry couldn’t get his head out of his *** and actually study the playbook and film. Is this on a Richt? Yes, but we lacked talent in crucial spots and had a bunch of freshmen running around trying their best. Our upperclassmen at WR can’t catch (Langham and Cager) Thomas quit. All TE’s got injured. DJ couldn’t hold o to the ball and cost us some games also. There was a lot going on this year and I think it’s a little ridiculous to say the coaches all of the sudden suck. Richt needs to bring in some help to make this offense more creative. If he does that, we will be in good shape.
All of a sudden? I havent had confidence in them since day 1. Dugans is the one I respect the most on that side of the ball. Look dude I'm fully aware that u just cant have nothing but youth running around, I get it. Youth does NOT excuse terrible play calling tho and the fact the older WRs sucked so bad still is just a reflection of the overall state of the offense/coaching. I think Dugans will do better with this current youth hes getting to work with but it still hurts that guys like Cager dropped SO MANY passes. What I think really hurt us was our TE slot, nobody with any experience could stay healthy but we also saw guys like Brevin Jordan look FAR better already than anything Irvin or Polenday could dream of doing and that's partially why I wont put full blame on the offensive woes on the youth. Yes, they are young but many of them are flat out more talented than the incumbent elder pass catchers. I really hope we are big improvement next year from Pope and Harley cause we NEED them to show up. How do u feel about Dee Wiggins future outlook?
