Even more concerning than the BS 2 minute drill, terrible offense, etc etc is how Richt had no regard N’kosi Perry’s well-being as a player or person.

The first time he puts Perry in we’re at our own 8 yard line w/ 7 minutes left in the first quarter. We throw a screen that went for a loss of 4 then ran the ball two more times. 3 and out.

He keeps Perry in the game, and this time we’re at our own 2 yard line. Perry’s second pass is dropped by Brevin Jordan, which would’ve resulted in a first down and gain of 15+. Drops happen. That’s fine. It’s clear he’s still working his way into the game because he’s only had two drives. Perry is then PULLED without ever having a real shot to do what he needs to do.

Down 17 to 12, Richt puts Perry in the game in the fourth game with 12 minutes left and he now has to win the game or be seen as a failure. Mark Richt trapped Perry so he looks bad and now can blame it on his quarterbacks without giving the kid a real shot. The same kid who brought us back against FSU. If you’re going to handle him like this, you might as well not even play him.

Perry may not be the long term answer at quarterback, but we’ve played mind games with him for the last three weeks and not given him a true shot.

And I don’t even expect anything to change moving forward. If Golden managed to keep Dorito for 4 and 1/2 years, I can only imagine that Richt will be able to sell another dream to maintain his playcalling duties and offensive control. Replacements for searles and J Richt will not make a major difference.

You’re missing the point. This isn’t about Perry’s talent it’s about Richt’s inability to make a decision and stick with it. When he put in perry for the FIU game, he needed to be prepared to keep Perry in for the rest of the season

Our 4m+ head coach acts like a fickle child who can’t decide what he wants at a McDonald’s drive through window
 
It's like he's senile or is intentionally sabotaging this program, it's utterly mind-blowing.
 
Made no sense putting Perry in that situation. Is it really mind games or is Richt that disengaged? Im beginning to buy the demintia theory because the way he's handled the QB rotations make no sense. Never seen it work this way.

Total mismanagement of the QB room from day one.

Let's see.

4-star Jack Allison - Transferred
4-star Nkosi Perry - Playing mind games with him and he's been pulled a multitude of times. Potential candidate to transfer.
3-star Cade Weldon - Multiple times has been suspended. We really don't know what we have with him.
4-star Jarren Williams - Viewed as the new savior. Seems to have tremendous upside.

I can see a combination of Weldon and/or Perry transferring after this year. Williams will be viewed as the QB going forward. Problem is, this OL and playcalling doesn't do anyone any favors. I could see Williams having to play in Blacksburg given the staff wants to retain his RS. He will likely struggle given that it's his first real game (Savannah State doesn't count) and the hardest team on our schedule sans LSU. The fans that continue to prop up Richt saying he doesn't have talent will point out that JW isn't the answer and Richt doesn't have a QB (which is his job btw, but I digress). I'm just pointing out what would likely happen.

I too don't think Perry's the long-term answer at QB and it very well may be JW. But I also do know that Perry was handed a **** deck with Richt and the latter has more than flagrantly handled the QB room. Richt fans will bring up Murray and Stafford (QBs that were developed several years ago mind you) as a bastion of hope saying that Richt knows what he's doing. But they fail to bring up how Richt fumbled the QB room his last years at UGA.

We got on Houston fans when we told them what they got with D'Onofrio. After 2 years, they understood and admitted we were right.

I wish more of our fans would do the same with UGA fans that warned us as well.
 
2nd to Last Drive (8 minutes left)
- Richt calls 3 straight passes and lined up to go for it on 4th & 3 from our own 32. He was calling plays like there were 2 minutes left in the game.

Last Drive (4 minutes left)
- Richt calls runs on 5 out of 6 consecutive plays, and eats up more than 2 minutes. He was calling plays like there were 8 minutes left.

How can you expect Perry to be successful and manage the clock when the guy coaching him and calling the plays is clearly doing it wrong?

Think about this. Al Golden and Coley handled the QB room far better than Richt has.

Let's just play Jarren the rest of the way and hope the OL doesn't get him killed.

I’m glad you mentioned this. I’m hoping that his QB handling is the icing on the cake that the BOT use to force major offensive changes on this staff. I can’t remember another musical chairs QB situation this bad
 
Perry:

1) Isn't smart;
2) Isn't a hard worker;
3) Is being corched in terms of development (Jon);
4) Is being corched in terms of strategy (offensive philosophy and play design);
5) Is being corched in terms in terms of tactics (play calling and in-game adjustments);
6) Is playing behind an untalented, corched O-Line.

What other ingredients need to be added to this recipe for disaster. Perry's career at UM will not amount to anything.

Also, 4-Star Brad Kaaya was supposed to improve into being a high draft pick because he got to work with QB "guru" Mark Richt.

The track record so far hasn't been great.
 
Richts in game decision making is far worse than Golden. I never thought I would say that.

Yup. I didn't notice any improvement going from Coley to Richt and his kid.
 
Perry is an up tempo, spread QB who thrives at improv.

Give him a package that addresses his strengths. Stop being stubborn, coaches. The kid was the #3 dual threat QB for a reason. Why is he running the same safe **** as Malik?

He may very well be awful, but can we please set him up in a package that suits him (as he was told when we were recruiting him) ?

Perry is a one read QB. He needs to be in that kind of system why are we making this kid read defenses and look through progressions.

It should be a simple hand off, read option or one read similar to what Malik did that year.

CMR believes his system works and players should fall in line and just execute. Perfect ingredient for a 7-5 season
 
Our biggest weakness is pass blocking, which is saying something when you look at our special teams needs unit

How does Richt address that? I'm not even going to talk about the constant mixing and matching or allowing Searels to steal money. What about the fact he NEVER moves the pocket. NEVER. Every single passing play calls for our QB to sit in the pocket and be asked to risk his life to complete a pass.

Doesnt excuse the ineptitude of our QBs, but Williams could be Bernie Kosar and it wouldnt matter because any QB in this system is going to be under siege every single snap. Our senile HC doesnt understand this simple concept because if he did he would attempt to disguise our pass pro weakness with roll outs, bootlegs, and moving the pocket. It is beyond a joke at this point.
 
One thing I noticed......Perry hasn't caught up to the speed of cfb.....processes everything too slow.....Richt needs to leave him out there longer to see "if" he can catch up.....next time he decides to switch....it has to be Williams....at this point....the Rosier shuffle should be over....
