Staggering statistic about Mark Richt

[SPAMM]

When he came to Georgia he had just been an offensive coordinator for a championship level team. When he got here, he was a CEO who was rusty with the Xs and Os. Hopefully he's worked through that and can get back to form.

Encouraged by what we saw the last 4 games, and during that losing streak he attempted to tweak the offense every game too

We didn't play anyone good in the final 4 games. Syracuse hung 60 on that awful Pitt defense. We had 3 points at the half against NC State.

That is such revisionist garbage. Pitt is a **** good team. They beat Penn St and Clemson. we throttled them. NC st despite their record are good and very talented and it was a road game. UVA does suck and Duke is decent nothing more but Pitt win especially was helluva impressive.

Additional point. App State ended 9-3, won their conference and then their bowl game. Miami scored 20 percent of the points they gave up all year.

Not so fast. This same Pitt team beat the guys who are in the CFB playoff in Clemson. I wouldn't discredit that W

...and they beat Penn State.

That's not true, NC State should have beaten Clemson,UVA gave L'Ville a fit, Pitt beat both Penn St and Clemson and honestly Duke gave L'Ville a good game for the most part.

Duke and NC st beat UNC also, we are literally 3 or 4 plays going differently from being 11-1

Same thing from last year. Only game we was truly out of in 2015 were clemson and unc. Everything else including wsu half back pass with yearby in a blizzard smh... Miami blunder vs fsu and Cincinnati poor execution

 

[jackedaround]

that's funny he managed to lose 4 times calling plays this year alone.

Thursday night in Blacksburg was our only woodshed game.The other 3 losses by 1,3,and 7 on a UNC TD that shouldn't have counted.We need a bowl win for 2017 momentum and morale.

Up to 2008 when Mark was stripped of his playcalling duties his record on the road?

27-4

Saw a uga fan post this elsewhere, pretty eye opening if true

I don't think this stat is correct, or at least it's misleading, because:

- Richt stopped calling plays late in the 2006 season
- Because they're played at Neutral sites - the Florida, SEC Championship, and Bowl games don't count in this record
- 2001-2007, Georgia only played 4 away games each year, except in 2003 when they played 5. Miami played 6 away games this year

How does a HC get stripped of play calling duties... Then why is he the head coach, then why stay at the school that's embarrassing if the schools ad/admin can or would do that!

These guys will make up anything to protect mark richt.

Fact.

He wasn't stripped. He stepped down to let BoBo shine so BoBo could get a good job elsewhere,

Georgia just didn't let Richt get the controls back when he wanted to get back in the mix again.


The notion that he was stripped makes him sound weak and a bit farfetched.

No truth to this.

No we're not. We are 8-4...with a loss to a 4-8 Notre Dame team that lost to Duke, NCState and Navy.

We are an Offensive Coordinator away from being 11-1.

To teach an academic subject is certainly not easy, but compared to coaching, it is. We can say 'two plus two is four' to every kid and be sure that we are right. But in coaching, we have to literally get to the soul of the people we are dealing with.

Richt haters gunna be miserable for a long time.

8 and 4 and for the first time in years we have a coach that's solid. We have a team on the rise with many returning. We have a coaching staff that is truly developing kids into players. We have a defense that's respected and not thought of as a joke. We have a offense that is capable of steamrolling over most teams if Kaaya is clicking.

Many positives to stuff under the tree and we have a Bowl game that's in late December... Yeah, Life is good and it will get better over time.

Merry Christmas

Coach that is Solid. I don't know about that. Mark Richt is far from solid. Manny Diaz and his staff are Solid.

Richt underachieved this year. No other way to look at it. Richt as a Play-caller is as bad as Golden.

I still can't believe we lost to 4-8 Notre Dame. Richt called a terrible game. If not for ND's Special Team blunders, that game is not close.

I can't believe njoku let grass trip him up

I can't believe the wind blew over coley in an almost sure TD vs FSU

I can't believe kayaa tossed it 5 yards behind njoku vs UNC on 4th down when he was wide open

I can't believe Richt's play calling gave up thirty points!

He gave up 20 against FSU and UNC.........and lost.
