He did, but I think did it based more on statistics of Richt's teams after "disappointing" seasons the year prior. He also made those comments before he knew AJ was going to be out for the first 4 games. We have AJ for the first four, I think that we split with Arky and SCU, and we beat MSU and CU. His prediction wouldn't have been that far off had that been the case.

Call it negativity if you wish, I am waiting to see it on the field before I get too excited about Richt's 11 campaign. I got us going 8-4/ 7-5; I think we have the talent to compete for the SECE, but Richt has had much better talent in the previous six years and not made it to Atlanta. Put me in the "I'll believe it, when I see it" camp.

I agree with your statement "I believe it, when I see it" but I will also say that this is a very different team then the past squads. I know, I know everyone says that. But I don't say that, this team is freaken loaded with untapped talent. I don't neccessarily agree with the statements some of these guys are saying about wanting to win for Richt's and that they owe it to Richt's to win. This team is not full of 4 and 5 year seniors that have been in the trenches with Richt's since day one so I don't buy it. This is what I mean when I say that what we have been lacking is SWAGGER. I gotta be honest with you guys, I don't care to hear about all the reasons why we should win ball games I'm just ready to see this new generation of Dawgs put their hats on someone. I am feeling kind of intense right now so I am going to give a couple of pep talks to some folks. back out now if you don't want to hear this. 1. Isaiah Crowell-- I have disected your high school film and watched you destroy linebackers and skill players. You are the future of the Bulldog nation, and in my book when you signed that commitment letter we all signed it with you. All we ask as ravenous Dawgs is that when you get the ball you fight for every inch you can get, e-v-e-r-y s-i-n-g-l-e p-l-a-y.
2. Aaron Murray-- Partner you are a natural ball player, We both have something in common, I also played my high school football in Florida so I know the level of competition down there. I have been watching you play ball for years and there is no question about your talent. What we need is a vocal leader who talks a big game then goes out and embaresses cornerbacks. There is no doubt in any of our minds that you are that man, keep doing what your doing and we will ride on your back all the way to the National Championship.
3. Offense of line-- You boys have something to prove! I can't tell you how many times I have heard in the last couple of months that you guys are the weakest link. This should infuriate you, I was just looking at the statistics on all of our offense of line and it is sick!! If you guys play together and keep to your assignments Samuel, Crowell and Murray may never get touched. Our season starts up front so don't listen to the critics just put your heads down and blow up anything that gets in your way.
4. Richard Sanuel-- You are a beast! and personally I am expecting HUGE things out of you. To have the advantage of knowing personally what a linebacker does gives you a major advantage. Your mentality should be no different then if you were in prison. On that first play of scrimage go out and find the biggest guy on the field and absolutely crush him. 6 foot 2 243lbs are you kidding me! Believe me when I say I can't wait to watch you play.
5. Deffense-- If there is anything we are holding our breaths about it's you. We know you guys are smart, can tackle, the secondary looks great, and big Jenkins is going to be a monster in the middle. But I can guarantee you if you ask any ravenous Dawg what are deffense has been missing they will all say it's swagger. It's not something your taught, you can't coach it, and you can't convince a team to all the sudden get it. We will all know if you have on September 3 in OUR DOME! The night is set, we are coming in as a second rate football team, and that leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
