100% agree with needing an OC. There's a few positions that need to be reevaluated.
This is why the Patke hire was such bullsht. We now have 2 coaches coaching 3 linebacker positions.
We needed an offensive coordinator. We got Patke.
Our special teams have been one of the worst units IN THE NATION since last season. We needed a special teams coach. We got Patke.
Our O-line is a disaster. Searels is responsible for recruiting, coaching & naming FIVE STARTERS. Maybe a full-time offensive coordinator could've split the job with Searels (since QB coach is off limits) & coached tackles or interior linemen. But we got Patke.
Its not even a knock on Patke. Its just another example of Richt needing to do one thing with his staff & doing the opposite.
Jon needs to be relieved of his coaching duties. He wanted his son to get his foot in the door. I get that. Mission accomplished. QB coach is on his resume. Richt doesn't have to fire him. He just needs to move him away from QB coach.
Well said. And as I said earlier, I agree completely in that it's time for Mark to get his kid a job again in the NFL. Heyyyy....I was the QB coach at Miami. Look, it says it right here on my resume. OK kid, you can make copies as a quality control assistant in the NFL. Congrats.
And that opens the door to hire someone who can actually gameplan and call plays. It's time. Year 3, he needs to realize this isn't working. And call Mark Richt a lot of things, but he's not unintelligent. He knows better than anyone this isn't working. But he's not firing his kid and he's not firing Thomas Brown. Having his kid voluntarily leave for what looks like a step up, now that's a different story.......
