Mark Richt will get it done (Long)

It's funny how people think Golden was the worst coach ever but expect Richt to win a championship with his players being upperclassmen or field a team of freshman and sophomores and win a championship with them. Can't make this **** up.

When should you judge a coach by the roster? Idk, maybe when they are all recruited by him..

I know losing to LSU sucked ***. We can question coaching decisions and we should within the eb and flow of the season. In the end though, having our team stacked with players is what will take us back to prominence and i see that happening slowly but surely.
All 11 starters in UGA title game on D were recruited by Mark Richt, Chubb and Michel were recruited by Mark Richt. The guy knows talent. I look at the '20 recruiting class and that thing is gonna be lit. We need to and will get back to when we step on the field we overmatch 85% of the schedule at every position and match the other 15% of the opponents. There are not too many genius coaches. When Saban plays teams that match his team, the games are normally close. The thing is how many teams can realistically match them? Players win games.

Butch Davis wasn't such a genius at scheming, he just knew what the team supposed to look like. Our team is struggling now because we still have Golden players in the upper class and these players were alot of average players coming out of high school and then indoctrinated in bad teachings. If you search almost every position on our team, OL, RB, Safety, QB, the underclassmen and back ups are way better in talent than the starters, and im talking elite talent that any top 10 school would want. Saban flew a chopper to try prying Gurvan Hall away from us for example.

We must within our anger resist the urge to compare Richt to Golden, sorry i went to the VT and ND game and Golden woulda gotten smashed by both teams, we smashed them, seems like ages ago but that did happen. We now need consistency. Clemson that everyone fawns over, you realize Dabo was there and got beat at home by Shannon and Jacory? They got 70 put on them in a bowl game. Things changed when they started recruiting in the top 5 and top 10, we must get back there, magic coaching cannot get us out of this funk, we are gonna consistently be around top 10-15, we need the special players and a bunch of them to get pass the Wisconsins and LSU'S who themselves get overmatched by Bama and OSU. That's where we are. I expect this team to improve over the season, if we were a terrible team we woulda folded tent v LSU and got 50 put on us.

Last thing ima say, no team from Florida ever went wrong by getting the best players from the state and that's what we are doing. Once FSU started recruiting all those 5 star out of state players it was over for them. We must in this hunger to get back to elite enjoy this process as well as fans, not blind loyalty of course but be fair to the players and coaches as well. We will be back like the electric bill.

richt's first practice here he said "wheres the miami speed?"

Richt had a couple down years at UGA because he had poor QB play. One of the reasons fans could not forgive him is because he ignored Watson, right in his back yard. Very big mistake on that eval and he lost his job because of it. But other then that team was loaded. He also had #1 QB in the land locked up before got fired. Now who knows if he could have landed Fields or their current QB. But the guy can land talent. Really not sure what is going on this year, have not followed recruiting that closely. I agree a lot of work needs to be done on this class.
 
Honestly, I stopped here.

Do we need a team "stacked with players" to beat inferior teams like Pitt?

Do we need a team "stacked with players" to beat coaches who are atrocious retreads?

Do we need a team "stacked with players" to make coaching changes to correct obvious issues?
Ask Bama how being "stacked with players" has helped them out

Exactly.

This is what many are not getting.

Every other team needs to be stacked with blue chippers to be able to win, and win big, but not Miami. At Miami, you just need to put a U on the helmet of whatever bodies happen to be on the roster, coach 'em up, and they should win a national title.
 
How is it a crutch? Better players help you win more games. Seems simple enough.

you must not remember the shannon/golden days when we were loosing to duke
Exactly.

you need to stack talent to compete at a national championship level
but we had plenty of losses where talent was not an issue
 
This thread is going no where fast

Is Richt on the right track, yes
Does he need to:
1. Hire a real OC
2. Improve the coaching staff and stop hiring stray cats as coaches
3. Move on from Rosier

Do these things and then we can start thinking about the playoffs

Does anyone know what Diaz and Co. make compared to coaches at other programs. I'm curious as to just how competitive an assistant salary Richt was given when he took the reigns. Also, when the extra slot was created with the NCAA rules plus Kul's replacement, I didn't notice any poaching going on.
 
the player excuse has been used since Randy shannon took over
how long will this be our crutch?
We have never won without great players. The only argument you can make is our first ship and we were led by a future NFL QB

its very simple....better more accurate qb and a consistent will change this.

do you really think Pitt was more talented than us last year
or even Wisconsin or LSU
the only team that has more talent than us is Clemson and maybe FSU which is a **** show
 
I disagree on not needing to recruit out of state 5 stars, we need them in the worst way on especially on the offensive line and interior D line, not many guys like nesta every year in florida you have to go out of state.
 
Lets fine this thread under the DUH . Of coarse he will. He is one the most successful coaches in college FB. He recruits like a monster has some of the best staff in the country and the kids love him. Richt will be here til he retires which IMO is about 12 years away at the earliest.

The problem is, it’s not a binary one or the other argument.

More often than not elite talent wins out. But there are tons of elite level coaches that turn 2star talent into 4star production. And that’s why Saban has been so good, elite talent AND great coaches. And even then that still doesn’t guarantee a championship.

The talent level at Miami has increased exponentially each year since Richt has been here, BUT there has been enough questionable decisions by Richt on game days and coaching hires that keeps the gap between Bama OSU Clemson and Georgia obvious
 
Has anyone mentioned Butch Davis the football God yet?

Just curious.

For the record he's the only coach in the game right now that can out recruit the bags.

I believe Richt will get it done too (maybe not ship, but perennial top 10-12)... But there's no excuse for winning IN SPITE of your qb for 2 years. Esp when you are a qb guy, esp when your little son is on the staff as a qb coach. Can't happen. 1 year...ok? Happens even at schools further along, misevaluations, change of staff, transfers, etc...If Malik Rosier doesn't develop, he is not a 2 year QB, it is really plain and simple...And you are ruining next year, by not finding out the best of your other 3 this season.

We didn’t hire him to be a perennial top 10 school. That’s for Michigan St. I refuse to be his new UGA.
