Richt's Committed to Building the Program the Right Way

[KrazyCane]

Brad Kaaya is garbage under any offense its not on a coach that didn't recruit his sorry *** that he can't play under center, in shot gun, in spread, in i form, in a basic offense or a complex one... Once we get rid of weak individuals that play our leadership positions the team will improve under this staff.

 

[ageezy]

If he wants a physical running game, why does the least physical of our three backs get the most carries? One other thing, play calling is very predictable and that is not helping the line. First series at Notre Dame, run run run punt was almost a sure thing. If Richt does not open up the offense like he did during the middle of the game, this team finishes with 4 wins. If he does, the team finishes with 8.

i'll disagree on the playcalling, we need to establish the run, however i agree that we can do it from other formations instead of being so predictable. i would love to see the pistol formation, keep brad off the line to see the defense, however still gives opportunities for power running . . . but face it, we don't have the the tackles to run how we would like, but it's the cornerstone of our program, so you can't just abandon it

Parcell made the "you are what your record says your are" statement popular and he's true. But it doesn't speak to progress at all. Again some of you are so scarred that your unwilling to look at any positives or overall culture, etc. So yall gonna be disappointed for this year and next, because this isn't a sprint.

Point is we saw the same "progress" when Shannon took over for Coker and when Folden took over for Shannon.

We're 4-4. There's actually regression offensively from the same players. OUR QB is worse. Our OL with the same guys is worse. Our running game against P5 competition has not improved. Our defense is more aggressive and more fun to watch, but our offense is putrid.

If you're going to point to us not getting beaten as badly in our losses as progress then you're going to get hazed. UM fans have been fed that **** way too long to want to hear it now.

Hey guys! We didn't get killed by UNC this year! That's awesome!

The only way to build the program "the right way" is to lose a bunch of games you shouldn't in a desultory manner and to field an inept offense that wakes up the echoes of Pat Nix.

Great coaches have to stick to what they do no matter what their personnel is capable of doing best. Great coaching is forcing players to do what they're not good at and to lose while doing it "the right way."

come on your a savy poster

tell me a team with a spread and gun offensive system that has won big . . . none, except maybe oregon. did we get to happy with rpo's, yes. however putting emphasis on the run is the right thing to do. imagine if we dropped back and threw it 60 times a game??

Alabama runs spread from the gun. They're decent aren't they? Clemson does too. So does Louisville.

Coaches need to win games and move the program forward. Their job isn't to insist on running a specific offense no matter what the current circumstances are.

If our current team is better suited to be in the spread in the gun and pass to set up the run then that's what we should be. If he wants to build an I formation power run team then he needs to do that via recruiting, not by forcing this team to do what it can't do.

i'm not suggesting that, my original post spoke to a new culture of running the ball . . . its obvious that some of you want saban, meyer, and harbough results and it's not going to happen

please notice i said spread and GUN . . . as in throw it 50-60 times consistently throughout the year. That's not what those teams are. They are teams that establish the run . . . which is exactly what we're attempting to do. now i'll agree we could be more imaginative with our formation, but running the ball leads to championships

Thats it!! Smh Lmao at Brad Kaaya being a spread qb / news flash he sucks in any formation you put him in
These guys will baby and make excuses no matter what

 

[Big Sky Cane]

I'm committed to him winning and idgaf how he does it. And preferably sooner rather than later. So far the results are dog****.

 

[DiegoCane]

After watching the last few games it's obvious that Richt will not abandon the run . . . And he shouldn't. When he arrived he said that he would have a tough and physical team. Well, unfortunately our personnel does not fit that mold this year, however it doesn't mean you change the corner stone of what your program is going to be.

I was watching an interview with Ryan Anderson a linebacker from Alabama about the upcoming game against LSU and he kept alluding to physical, smash mouth, and running the ball.

Everyone seems to want to Richt to abandon his principle and open it up, however it's a reason Oregon, Washington, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, and all those other spread em out teams haven't won. It's because win you get to elite bowl games, the ground game and elite defense win. So unlike most, I'll take the losses if it helps create a culture of who we're going to be in the future. Line it up and run, make it clear that this is going to be who we are . . . we'll struggle this year, and maybe next year too, but when we get a total culture shift and we become that physical run the ball team on the field, i think we'll reflect back to this time and understand the its importance.

Anti-spread talk is hilarious.

1. Conviently leave out Ohio St, UF with Meyer, Auburn with Cam
2. You can be a physical team in a spread offense.
3. Use Oregon as an example that it doesn't work.

Etc etc etc

 

[1mg of Epi]

Recht is garbage so far. Hopefully he gets better.

 

[streetja]

So Richt is committed to winning the right way by sacrificing winning right now? Jesus Christ the spin in here is getting me nauseous.

What positive carry over effect is getting your assss pounded on offense week in and week out of year 1 going to benefit year two? Which we'll be returning virtually the same exact personnel on offense. So I guess by OP's logic we're going to be twice as good later down the road because we'd have by then sacrificed winning two years while "building the program".

Let's get this straight, Richt's long term strategy is "even a broken clock is right twice a day". He's running the only offense he's capable of. If he was the least bit of a guru on offense he would've played to this team's strength while recruiting guys on offense that better fit the scheme we're failing to execute now.

 

[DaU83]

sorry, he SHOULD abandon what's not working, and find other ways to accomplish what he's trying to accomplish. which SHOULD be to win the game.

come on yall, no one said you couldn't run from the spread, ive said in previous posts we need to be more imaginative with our formations. i think he runs 12 personnel because of our TE's, but we still need more imagination

but name me a team that has won elite bowls running spread and throwing it 50-60 times a game consistently??

my original post speaks to running the ball . . . it didn't speak to not spreading teams to to do it

 

[UMFarArcher]

Gee that sounds EXACTLY like what the excuse makers were around here saying about Golden 4-5 years ago

So are we to judge Richt right away with what he been able to do with a roster littered with Golden left-overs? I'll be the first to agree that his play-calling has been down right atrocious for much of the season but I am also willing to be patient enough to realize this wasn't a quick turn around project.

Substitute Golden for Richt and Shannon for Golden and we're in 2011 again.

Not saying CMR is another Golden, but excuses are excuses.

So Bring Back Butch.

Another person made the comment, and I think it was accurate.

The OL knew the first 3 plays for the entire week. He didn't surprise them with those calls. He challenged them, and they failed.

What package are you talking about? No one signed for this. Did you use Fedex?

 

[Tony Perps]

I would agree, but the team is already better than Al Golden's teams. Do you really think our record would be better with Golden??

Unlike our predecessor, Richt has pedigree you can't deny. He's not Saban or Harbough, but he's good. Our team is already tougher, we're just not good enough . . . yet I know Golden has scarred alot of you, but this is the real deal . . .

It's actually not. It's just like the 2014 team that also lost four games in a row and finished 6-6.

the right way is to bribe the best players in the country. everyone knows this.

Ageezy, Excellent post. I can't believe that so many are not reading the state of the Canes in
reality. For one, Richt has only had 8 games, had to deal with many of Golden's recruits, had to deal
with a lesser no of recruits thanks to the NCAA sanctions (which ended in October, had to teach a
new system to his team with new assistant coaches. So before people start shouting Butch again
give Richt time to build his team. Remember, the guy had a winning record at Georgia ! And he is
also a homer, I believe that no one more than Richt wants a return to Cane greatness.
Now for the team: Kaaya's O line is shoddy at best. Kaay is a good QB when he has TIME. He's
been like Pearl Harbor bombed by the **** considering the no. of sacks fired at him.
I see terrific potential with the defense. The 3 freshman linebackers for one are future stars.
The wide receivers are great when Kaaya can get them the ball.
Lastly, to denigrate Richt now is sheer lunacy.

 

[supacane]

Richt need to be judged harder than Coker, Shannon and Golden. He has been a HC longer than all of them combined. He OC on a NT team. For him to come here and keep doing the same crap that's not working is unacceptable and not have no idea to fix it is even worse. I already lost interest in the season. Next season no excuses.
