The Junkyard

I am old enough to remember the 1980 game which means I remember the 80's and 90's when UGA was irrelavant nationally. I am old enough to remember the early 2000's when CMR had an amazing run. Coaching seems to be cyclical. Yes, we had a couple of down years, and yes, CMR does seem to hold onto coaches too long that should go. But I am not prepared to be Tennessee just yet. I don't want to throw away a proven winner yet. I think it is shortsighted and naive to assume that Kirby Smart or the next "great coaching prospect" is going to get us where we want to go. Richts character aside, he is fourth best in the country in winning percentage among active coaches (.736), and he is doing it in the toughest conference. Richt has won an SEC championship twice since Spurrier.

Richt has struggled during the Willie Martinez era, and when he has a new starting quarterback. I can't fault him for that. And the whole Fulmer Cup crap gets old. If not for our transparency in drug testing and discipline, we wouldn't even know about half of the problems this off-season.
