Naw, but he could say something to the effect of “You know as a coach we’re exploring all options at this point. The guys have played their heart out, the coaches have coached their hearts out, and we’re all disappointed with how this season have gone. My job is to make sure I have my guys prepared and look at every facet to do so.”
See how simple that is? I can do this fluff talk in my sleep b/c I’ve now seen 15 yrs of this bull chit.
Unfortunately Richt is beginning to show very eerie signs of Goldenism. Remember how defensive Golden used to get for his butt buddy D’Onfrio’s defensive scheme in yr 3? He used to be real PR then he became gun-ho to prove that the defensive scheme worked and he started throwing out Total Defensive #’s to justify it. When that didn’t work, he then used the proverbial word “execution” and then catch phrases like “everyone do your job” when it began failing. Well, as he became gun-ho to prove the players, fans, and media wrong about their broken defensive system, the alienation in the locker room began, and we kept getting worst and worst as a team.
Just change the defensive storyline to the offensive story line and now we have what Richt is beginning to do. Lol if u think play calling duties will change. It’s why he took this job and he has Blake and the BOT by the nuts, daring them to force him to do anything. See that’s what happens when u prematurely extend any coach (again, see Al Golden). And double LOL if u think Richt cares about “his” school. History has shown he does not. He’s on an ego trip right now to prove everyone wrong. Becoming wise in his own eyes will be his demise.
