Would you be ok with these changes?

I can't help but think this pressure is going to force Richt's hand to make some changes. Emotions aside, would you all be ok with bringing in a new OC, QB coach, o-line coach, and st coach?

Or is there no winning solution outside firing Richt (not happening)?


No, I wouldn't be alright with that.

The Head Coach sets the tone, energy, determination, fire, fight, and discipline to win.

Richt would be a great funeral home director.

C'mon dude, we entered the season in the top 10!

yes but let's not kid ourselves - most people thought we were over rated. There is so much talent on the team - it's not about that. But it's young and inexperienced. and that's not changing over night.
 
Only way I'd be ok with that is if the OC hire is a quality experienced OC from outside his coaching tree that has ABSOLUTELY NO AFFILIATION TO HIS GOD FORSAKEN OFFENSE. He also needs to relinquish ALL offensive play calling responsibilities and stay the **** out of the way.

In other words, if he's ok being a Bobby Bowden type figurehead....then I guess I'm ok with it for now.

Anything other than what I outlined above he can get the **** out of dodge and go rot in retirement for all I care.

CMR is not going anywhere unless he chooses to. The University is not going to force him out. He is exactly the kind of administrator the university looks for. They will never have to police the football program because he will do that. And we shouldn't want him to leave - we just need him to recognize that his talents are better utilized as a manager and program front man - not play caller. I am wondering what the rest of the staff is saying to him and each other behind the scenes. We have no idea. They may also feel it's time for change .

I can't find the post but someone mentioned that somewhere along the way the fans lost sight of the fact we all thought we would be an 8-4 or 9-3 team at best this season given the losses of personnel through graduation and the draft. It's tough to expect freshmen or redshirt freshmen to play at the level those senior players did. We got excited about the skill level of Storm 18 class . And bottom line is the talent and depth in the trenches is sadly lacking right now - partially due to inexperience and physical readiness (the young guys) and partially due to lack of talent/athleticism with the others. The program is in season three of a major rebuild.

LMAO at program manager.

The dude hired his under qualified son as an Qb coach, himself as OC, Hartley as ST coach, Searles as OL coach, Patke as an olb coach when it was obvious ST's sucked and could use a full time coach, ect.

If you don't question his program management, no one can help you as maybe on drugs.

Richt is never going to get fired, no point in even discussing it. What worries me even more is he’s not going to make any changes, including stepping away from the O. The guy is in the twilight of his career, this is his last stop. The pressure to perform and make this program successful is not there. His career no longer hinges on the success program. His career is almost over, therefore there is no real sense of urgency to make the tough and sometimes unpleasant decisions needed to fix the program. I believe we’re in a hopeless situation until he leaves.
 
Yea ok buddy our fanbase is the worst in college football
Would you prefer that Richt stays and continue to take *** whuppins from inferior opponents like last nite? I really do like the guy but sumthin has to be done! The clock is ticking...

Changes def needed but there are some that are calling for changes that dont even know what a realistic change would be that they would want.

Firing Richt would be the right move but that’s not going to happen since they just gave him an extension and because of his contribution to the IPF. Since he’s not going anywhere, the next best option would be to bring in a real OC and let him run the offense. That’s probably not going to happen either given the fact that Richt took this job so that he could call plays and give his son a job. So basically we are ****ed.

You said it all perfectly.
 
I don't recall any offenses under Richt, lighting up the SEC. It's time to cut the head off the 🐍. We know what Richt ceiling is, hoping for a competitive ACC Championship game.
 
The best way this goes is Richt retires and we can do what we should do...and that's go out and get an actual head coach with an upward trajectory.

All these proposed shuffling of coaches isn't going to fix the problem. No matter who the new OC is Richt will inject his conservative mindset into the playcalling somehow.

New OC and oline coach yes. QB coach not really. There’s nothing technically wrong with the guys. That’s like NYG fans saying they need a new QB coach. But yeah we need a OC and for sure a change at oline. 2years of struggle

I don't know that those changes would be enough, I've lost faith in Richt's ability to motivate this team, but since I think we're stuck with the guy I'd call those changes best case.

Given what I think is possible, I'd be ok with that.

Didn't they try your option 1 at UGa?..... how did that work out?


Keep repeating the same **** thing and expect different outcome?
The same people that say this are the same people that say South Florida athletes can make a good coach look better. This justification is made when talking about any good (but not elite) coach. Yet somehow when talking about Mark Richt it doesn't apply.
So do you think the product on the field with the above changes would yield the same results as did with UGA?
Florida talent is irrelevant?

That was merely my point. I guess we'll have to see what happens!

My hope, going forward, is that Perry will start next weekend and the offense look night and day different from a Rosier ran offense. If Richt hasn't listened to the noise, he will hear it then.

Only true mouthbreathig morons would think that “south florida talent would make richt elite”.

it didnt for Coker, Shannon, or Golden. you have to actually recruit the talent and then you have to develop that talent and scheme to beat other talented teams.

This myth that UM makes mediocre coaches good is so beyond ridiculous.
 
Forget about a special teams coach. It has been confirmed that Richt has never ever put an emphasis on ST. He probably just gets another punter.
