For Him to drag this out for so long, I just got to think that he has a big name locked down at OC. I am praying he does at this point. If he doesn't then we are in big trouble for the next 6 years or so.

we thought that last year. we literally hired a DC who wasn't working and was about to start his job at MARYLAND lol. nothing against Steele but he wasn't choice 1. we got turned down by others. his OC wasn't his first choice either and was a guy who was demoted at Michigan to have any success there

I get it. I am well aware. One would think Mario who is probably GUARANTEED 80 million dollars would learn something from last year and make this right. I am just trying to be optimistic at this point. I am getting very nervous as each day passes just like everyone else.

I am with you brother. I just got to think he has something that will make us all say "Ok, this will work." God I hope I am right.

This is so much fun watching the staunchest supporters of Mario turn to the darkside.

I feel a little bit vindicated but it's bittersweet. I realized long ago that there are two types of coaches. The first type respond to failure by rethinking their entire approach. A good example is Brian Kelly after NDs 4 win season. He decided to start all over again, and try a new approach in everything from scheme to talent evaluation. The result was a playoff spot a couple years later. The other type of coach responds to failure by doubling down. The problem isnt the system, it's the execution. Coaches have massive egos. Most coaches fall into the latter camp, which is why most coaches fail. I hoped Cristobal would prove me wrong and be willing to change, but he's another in a long line of UM coaches that double down on failed approaches.

Imo I want a new coordinator but I don’t claim to be smarter than Mario Cristobal. Regardless if we run it back with Gattis (I don’t think we do) I think we can be better in 2023

UGA football: How recruiting has changed, and why mark Richt couldn’t keep up

Since 2017, UGA football has finished no lower than No. 3 in the recruiting rankings and has signed two consensus No. 1 classes.

"In many ways, Mark Richt was the right coach at the wrong time. He was a fantastic coach for an era of the sport which had already passed. In the 1980s and 90s, college football was arguably at its most diverse schematically.

The best teams of this era included Miami and Florida State with their pro-style, balanced attacks; Nebraska with its I-bone option; Oklahoma with the wishbone option; Notre Dame running the split-back veer; and many others centering their offense either around a downhill rushing attack or an early spread passing game.

This diversity was reflected in recruiting. Teams recruited players to fit their systems. There’s no point in signing a big arm pocket passer when you run the wishbone. Why sign a fleet-footed fullback when most of your calls are passing plays out of an ace formation?

As college football entered the mid-2000s, elite teams began abandoning single-scheme offenses in favor of offenses that blended multiple schemes. Again, this change was reflected in recruiting. Teams no longer tailored recruiting around their offenses, rather, teams began tailoring their offenses to the skillset of their roster. This concept has even spread to the defense.

Nick Saban and Urban Meyer spearheaded this change at the highest level, with more coaches adopting this new style as years went on.

Mark Richt and offensive coordinator Mike Bobo dabbled with some of these changes, but they never went all in.

When Bobo left Georgia, instead of hiring a new offensive coordinator who would keep Georgia’s offense progressing, Richt chose Brian Schottenheimer. Georgia’s offense actually regressed in 2015 and Mark Richt was fired after the season."

The similarities between Richt and Cristobal are remarkable.
