I hate the gayturds with a passion. The only time I have ever rooted for a UiF win was in 2015 when the lizard played UGA. There had been rumblings that UGA boosters were fed up with Richt after losses to Baga and Tennessee (and prior underperforming seasons). I remember thinking that if UiF could beat UGA soundly, Richt might get fired and he might possibly end up at UM. Golden had just been fired, and I wanted a guy who knew UM and had legitimate coaching credentials to come in. Essentially, I wanted Richt here before he was even available. Over Mullen, over Schiano, and over Butch.
I had serious doubts about Richt after the way we finished last year, though I gave him the benefit of the doubt to start the season. After the UVA game I was convinced we needed major changes to the coaching staff around Richt. But somewhere in the midst of bad losses to UVA, BC, and Duke (at home) where we averaged 14 points per game, I was convinced Richt himself was the problem. The game has simply passed him by.
In short, I was wrong to want Richt here. Some UGA fans tried to warn us, but I was among those that ignored them and called those fans unappreciative for Richt salvaging that program from utter irrelevance. But at this point, it should be perfectly clear to every Canes fan that Richt is not the guy.
I bring this up because I was vocally in support of Richt when (and even before) he was hired. But I cannot support what I have seen from this team in the last few months. Unimaginative and predictable playcalling, poor execution, subpar special teams, mishandling of the QB position, mismanagement of the roster, arrogant and out of touch recruiting, frantic and scared promotions of staff, failure to hire an offensive coordinator, and a fractured locker room.
So to paraphrase William Wallace, if you still support Richt then I say you are a slurper. And if you are a Canes' fan, then I am ashamed to call myself one.
