That just astounds me you don't remember ALL the way back to 2005. UGA wouldve been in the SEC championship in '07 had Tennessee lost to Vandy or Kentucky whom the Vols squeaked past both.

Thanks man.

Keep staff changes and the decisions for them till the off season.

With that said, I think Willie Martinez will be on his way out.

The guy threw his 5th pass of the season against a top 10 D from his own 6 yard line; he still has potential.

There hasn't been a running game tho.

Gray needs to come in more as a change of pace guy on a more regular basis to give him some reps since Cox has done well at times and been loyal to UGA but does not do well enough to stay on 100% of the time.

Damon Evans and Mark Richt are smart enough to handle staff changes in the off-season. Firing Martinez right now would only put the Dawg D at even more of a disadvantage when one of the assistants would have to step up and be thrust into responsibility that was not part of the agreement when the season started. Save any changes in staff for the off-season.

As long as they keep winning, then nothing is wrong with them. Hell, they can even lose once in the regular season and still make a trip to Pasadena as long as they knock off Bama in ATL.

Luckily for him the offensive line at UGA is still pretty young, so he'll have a couple of years to rehab and get back to 100%. No rush.

I hope the kid gets better though.

I wonder how much longer ol' Monte has got it in him? He'll probably be around football until he kicks the bucket?

Most dawg fans blame Martinez. That's a good question whether the position coaches are to blame, especially the secondary coach. Martinez used to be the secondary coach, so that really should be a strength of the defense. The pass coverage has been horrible. It's almost like the players are being coached to allow zones softer than jell-o. I think that's why Martinez is given the most scrutiny.

Exactly, high expectations, if handled properly, usually yeild positive results.

I'll admit that I was one who had too high if expectations (seemingly good talent was coming in like 05), but the season is not done yet and assessments should be made, if needed, at the end of the season.

Why don't you just sue us for having optimism in our team?

Some of youse, especially tech fans, just need to back up off UGA. I swear you techies enjoy UGA's misfortune than your own success. Go back to the cracks and crevices you jackets hid in before.

I think 4-5 years us the least amount of years a new coach should be given (unless the coach inherits USC, Ohio State, or what used to be Miami). After that the coach should be assessed on 3 year increments, approximately. A OC or DC should be give a few years to really teach and implement his scheme (I'm lookin at you Auburn).

Posted Monday October 12, 2009, About: Will Richt demote UGA assistants?

That was exactly what I was thinking. Wait until the end of the season.

Martinez definitely needs to get demoted or leave. The total defense as fallen by year since Martinez showed up. For example:

Total Defense by year:
2004 (the year before Martinez was DC)- 8
2005 - 18
2006 - 8
2007 - 14
2008 - 22
2009 (so far) - 74

Plus, Martinez has made almost every opposing QB look even better (except for ASU's QB).

I'd rather see Brehaut, but I'm just a fan.

That's what I was thinkin.

Maybe Kiffin can manage the QB spot better than Mr. Krispy Kreme.

Posted Tuesday August 25, 2009, About: Holtz predicts Notre Dame-Florida in BCS title game

He's drinking more than Notre Dame Kool-Aid; he's drinking electric Notre Dame Kool-Aid.

Seriously though, ND will probably make a BCS game if not a New Year's Bowl game (one of the good ones).

Posted Monday August 24, 2009, About: Georgia's starting tailback is...

Or any fan barking nonsense; it just stings more when you see a rival fan being ignorant.

Posted Wednesday August 12, 2009, About: ASU moving tailback to receiver

It doesn't matter where he plays cause he's still getting shut down in Athens, Ga.
