Funny....but missing the point.  If you think Gene earned that, I question your smarts as well.

I say this in response to many of our fans worrying that UGA may become good suddenly because of these two decent hires. I just disagree with that assumption.
Whilst I agree with this here part, I do think Richt is a good coach and not underachieved overall. He has certain years but he's won a lot of games overall. I don't know the numbers but I would guess that he's one of the tops in the conference in relation to his tenure. That's a guess, mind you, but it will surprise me if he isn't.

All I'm saying is his hiring of Pruitt and Rocker don't do anything to make me fear them all of a sudden.  To hear an ugger tell it, they are a NC favorite now and should be feared. That's laughable.

I'm not scared by who he hired.  I just didn't want Rocker at UGA I would prefer him at AU.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Over Garner? Not me. I like them both and Rocker MAY edge out Garner in coaching 'em up but I think Garner beats Rocker by a long way in recruiting.

There was a rumor at one point during our assistant coaching search that Rocker was coming back to coach D-Line and Garner was going to coach TE's.  That would have been ideal to me.

I wasn't trying to say in my OP that I was scared b/c of the Pruitt and Rocker hires, but if you don't think those two guys can't come in, with the talent UGA has recruited that is SEC battled tested and make them better then you are crazy.  I am not saying they are automatically NC favorites but I do think those two hires made that game a little more difficult and would rather had seen Rocker go somewhere else.

I'm not sold on Pruitt yet. I think he's good but until we see how he coaches against SEC competition with similar talent, the jury is still out. It was a good hire, yes. But time will tell.

I think you are right in that it's prob an upgrade over Grantham.

126-45

8-4 in bowl games

6 Eastern Division Championships

2 SEC Championships

2 time SEC Corch of the Year

On October 27, 2007, during the Bulldogs' heated rivalry game against the Florida Gators, the entire Georgia football team rushed into the end zone to celebrate after Knowshon Moreno's one-yard touchdown run gave Georgia an early 7–0 lead. The celebration drew two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties that eventually forced the Bulldogs to kick off from their own eight-yard line; during halftime, Richt told CBS sideline reporter Tracy Wolfson that he had told his offense to celebrate the first touchdown until they received a penalty

Fine upstanding man right there.

Again, nothing to do with whether or not he is a good football coach.

Honestly, if Malzahn stays that long and wins 126 games, you won't hear one gripe out of me.

Pat Dye won 99 at Auburn and we named the field after the guy.

I thinks its a combination of the 99 games and forcing the turds out of turd town.

From what I've seen of Coach Garner since he's been at Auburn and the NFL players he produced at UGA. I'd say that Coach Garner is on par with Coach Rocker as a DL Coach. They have the exact same tenacity on the practice fields when coaching these kids. As for recruiting, I'd take Coach Garner over Coach Rocker any day of the week.
So, in closing Coach Garner is the better DL coach of the two, but Coach Rocker is still a hell of DL Coach and with the type of talent UGA has already...they're going to be very, very strong in the front four (Coach Rocker is coaching Coach Garner's recruits).

He's had the same amount of resources and talent as Saban in a weaker division. Anyone have his numbers handy?

Richt: good coach but not great.  He is too much of a "want to be liked by everyone good guy" to push UGA up to elite status.  Malzahn, on the other hand is a task-master like Saban but without being the supreme asshole.  Richt can hire who he wants.  Ill take our current staff any day and AU is what matters to me.

Tuberville was a great coach and he also didn't have any MNC's.
Technically no, but Tubs in 2004 exceeds Richt's best.  Richt has had opportunities to win at least two MNC's (opportunities which Tubs never really had in 04 due to status quo of preseason polls) - and Richt couldn't do it.  Not just opportunity as in talent and facilities, but being in actual control-your-destiny master-of-your-domain position in early December.

Of course, by that measure, Malzahn is 0-for-1 - getting there was amazing, but not sealing the deal in Pasadena will be held against him at some point down the line by someone looking to marginalize him.

Richt may be 8-5 against Auburn, but I hope he stays in Athens.  What is HDNutt's record against AU?  Chan Gailey is 2-0.  Context
