More UGA player suspensions

  • Did Richt not recruit Ramble and Ogletree? This crap had been going on for years hence thUGA and the fulmer cups. At some point the onus has to be placed on Richt. If the players feared and respected him this wouldn't happen so often. The solution is to recruit better young men or hire a head coach who is a disciplinarian. Whatever system is in place is failing miserably. Time for a change.

  • Id say 70% of Dawg nation fully supports him but not for his coaching. It has to do with him being a good Christian man. The rest voice there doubts about him but it hardly gets noticed. He's a likeable guy but just doesn't seem to have what it takes to be a great coach. The adminastration and alumni are all aboard because Richt brings in the big bucks.

  • Richt offered Ogletree's brother to snag Alec. Richt also offered Nick Marshall's family member to get him. I sense a pattern with these charity offerings.

    UGA will never win a natty under Mark Richt. Everyone tries to tell them that, but they do not comprehend. They only want to be competitive, so that--barring no further suspensions---might happen this year. With these two out 4 or more games and the CBs they are missing, the first part of the season will be VERY interesting for UGA.

    I hope Miz puts one on them. If you live in Georgia and have to tolerate the perennial "pre-season national title team" every year, you hope UGA loses as well. Every year, UGA fans are AlWaYs thumping their chest about how great they are going to be. The "wait till next year" 's start about 3rd game of the season.....

    Does he have support from the fan base or just admin at UGA?

    Put it this way. As I was waiting outside the stadium this past Fall for my ticket to show up, I got barked at in my face and repeatedly told "I hope y'all kick our ass so Richt will get fired".

    Then through smoke and mirrors of a weak schedule, he saved his job. Miracously, conference intervention made their schedule even weaker for 2012.

    Alec was committed 6 months before Zander committed. This was not an offer to get Alec. If I remember correctly you're a Nole, and the Noles offered Zander and he played in 14 games for us as a Soph.

    Look, just like any fanbase there are a ton of douches. And I imagine that you have to hear a bunch of S%#@ being a FSU fan in another state, but to generalize all fans..

If I remember correctly you're a Nole, and the Noles offered Zander and he played in 14 games for us as a Soph. The same thing with Marshall, committed way before LO committed. LO was on the radar for awhile but no one thought he was going to qualify, hence no big offers and he didn't qualify.

    Outlaw was signed and placed (@ MGC) the year before Marshall was even able to sign {IIRC}. FSU did offer Zander, but that isn't the point. The point is those deals have been pretty crappy for the "star" from those deals to keep ending up in trouble--granted Marshall is now dismissed from UGA.

    Fanbases do have their DBags, FSU is no exception. If we had to rank fanbases with the highest concentration (from information I have gathered from Rivals' threads and from here), Ohio State, Florida and UGA are 3 of the top 10 fanbases for DBags. All fanbases have them, but some have more.

    You seem like a cool guy, so I will consider you an exception (which all fanbases also have).

    You're exactly right. Misinformation on my part. 24/7 wasn't around back during the Trees recruitment. Rivals claimed a FSU offer for Zander per Warchant. But I see your point about things ending poorly. Outlaw couldn't qualify, Marshall was dismissed. But Zander has played well for us on offense and special teams, and Alec has had high expectations since he walked on campus. I appreciate the good convo for sure, +1. Rule of thumb on our fans: if they bark like a dog outside Sanford, they are 100% obnoxious and not a representative of the fanbase as a whole.

    Much better than Bacarri Fudge

  • The people who say this is Richt's fault are kidding themselves. As a college student, I can tell you that there is nothing a football coach can do to stop players from smoking weed. Nothing. A huge percentage of football players smoke at all college campuses, Richt is just enforcing the rules. Kinda wish he wouldn't ...

  • Not a dawg fan but I know Richt has the talent around him to be able to win. Even with the other schools pulling talent out of Georgia UGA pulls top recruiting classes every year and puts tons of them in the NFL. Richt should be winning more. hell I'll admitt I thought the dawgs would make a better run at a BCS title a few years ago, but not anymore .

    I'll take a few DBs being suspended over NCAA sanctions.

    What sanctions? Unless something changes our penalties we self imposed will be enough.

    That is probably one of the dumbest things I have ever heard. He got caught with weed in his system so he just needs to admit it. Trying to blame it on eating a brownie that had some weed in it is just stupid.

    There's a discipline problem all right. Richt is just too good of a Christian for our fanbase to blame him. Instead its the players fault. You should have seen our message board earlier. Sad thing is the university deserves so much better but everyone loves Richt.

    i love that Gawja loves Richt.

    Agree, although his real last name is actually Fudge. http://www.macon.com/2011/09/23/1714682/name-change-works-for-rambo.html

    Who's the idiot? The guy who smokes weed or the guy who recruits and has to depend on the guy who smokes weed?

    How about the guy that institutes the ridiculously strict suspension policy? Kentucky is the only other school in the SEC that would have even punished the guys. Anyone thinking AU or Bama is any "cleaner" than we are is just stupid. They just don't have any sort of punishment or suspension for a first failed test, like UGA does.

    We need to change the policy. No suspension for the first failed test, 15-20% of games for 2nd, etc.

    No, his real last name is actually Rambo.

    See that is how a legal name change works.

    Same here. The comment about Adams loving Richt really threw me. Adams hates the football program top to bottom. Shows how much he knows...

    And we can obviously chalk you up in the D-bag "know-it-all" FSU fan column.

    FSU offering Zander is the point, either you guys thought he was good enough or you are a hypocrite that thinks its fine for his team to do the package deal but desperate if another team does. Outlaw never played for UGA and we pretty much knew he wouldn't, there was no risk to offering him, especially on NSD, and Marshall was coming to UGA regardless, we already had his LOI.

  • Do you have any evidence that Adam's doesn't like Richt because from everything I know tells me he is more than happy with Richt? TIA
