4 game losing streak. 43% completion %. What are we clinging to with Rosier? Play the underclassmen.
Overachieve? Forgive me if his 19-8 record at Miami with superior talent doesn't overwhelm me.
Although I must admit his comebacks on Toledo, UVA, GT & others were impressive. Crown em
Why was you ever on his bandwagon when it was clear he was trash?
funny thing is Golden guys have been some of his best players...
I’m not worried about this. Richt is not a dummy. By the time we get into the meat of conference play I’m confident rosier will be riding pine. Anytime richt spoke about the QB situation this offseason he said malik will have to play well to keep his job. And he hasnt. Just let it play out
he knows his QB situation needs to be addressed and the next few weeks will give him time to at least sort it out a bit(I hope)

I am in your camp. Starting Rosier was the right move, premised on the assumption that Kosi and Cade didn't do enough to take the job over the summer.I get what your saying but it has to be Kosi and Cade for NOT stepping up and looking ready during the fall...seriously, coaches see what we saw out of 12 last year. They begged either of them to step up. They spent all spring and summer talking them up. Neither stepped up and challenged 12.
Now, after what we say, Richt may not have a choice but to give one of them a chance but it would have been great if they earned that opportunity over the last month.
On if he play the young quarterbacks against Savannah State on Saturday: “We’ll treat it that way at every position. We want to play as many guys as we can. There were some young guys that have gotten in the game this past week and some that didn’t get in the game that we do want to get in there. We’re going to find a way to have a game plan to get those guys playing time. they need playing time.
“You know, the game against LSU is probably not the best way to break in kids from high school into that type of a situation. Some of them had to play. Some of them were really ready. Some were not quite so ready and they had to get in their anyway.
This sounds encouraging and shows that Rosier is in a short leash. Understandable that he does not want to start the young dudes vs LSU D. If we continue to see Perry /Weldon getting snaps against the scrubs over the next four games we might see them permenantly soon![]()
Not so much concerned with Rosier starting. Let him have a series or two and lets see what the other guys can do
How the **** was the game rigged for them when Richt didn't even give them a fair shot to win the job this year. It was never an open competition like he said it would be.Rosier may start but you guys have to start looking past the coach speak. They see what we see. Change is being considered.
Serious question. Do some people really expect a coach to walk out there and say: Look, 12, yeah, that fool trash and I know it. He can pack his bags now.....
Naw, a coach cannot do that. He will use words and phrases like examine film, look at the situation, and make a determination. EVERYTHING we have read this year and heard (remember the sit down with Holly Rowe and Maria Taylor) tells us Richt basically prayed Cade or Kosi would step up and force his hand to make the change. They could and did not. I'm all for giving the other guys a shot at this point but you have to be disappointed that the 'game' was rigged for them to ascend and neither could. Lets hope once they get some game action they do enough to force his hands then....
And no, I would not have thrown Jarren out there against LSU either. You want that kid to succeed long term.
Rosier should not play. I don’t care what he says. I don’t trust Richt in this regard at all.
This is basically where I'm at. I made peace with the decision to start Rosier even though I had hoped that Perry or Weldon would win the job coming out of camp. And I was really surprised that Weldon did not get into the game Sunday night with as poorly as Rosier played. I can only surmise that Weldon simply hasn't adjusted to the speed of the game at this level and that Perry is the real #2 QB. Regardless, I've seen all I want or need to see from Malik Rosier. Time to turn the page and give one of the younger QB's a shot.I am in your camp. Starting Rosier was the right move, premised on the assumption that Kosi and Cade didn't do enough to take the job over the summer.
It was baffling to me that Cade didn't start the 2nd half. I can only assume Cade is running 3rd, and had Kosi been active, the switch would've been made. Maybe he was reluctant after what happened in Pittsburgh last year.
I think the writing is on the wall. It sucks we had to take an L, but in a sense, its kinds like the beating Clemson gave us that got Golden fired. The Rosier era is over, IMO. We will see someone else at Toledo.
