Time for change

But we could also get someone like Cutcliffe.

CPJ > Cutcliffe

Or some young coach that is not on anyone's radar could come in for that matter.

If some young coach did show up and somehow show the world that he's that big of a genius that he can beat Georgia with leftovers, he's going to get hired by Texas.

I do not share the opinion that CPJ is doing the best any coach could ever hope to do at GT. History, rationalizations on why those were exceptions aside, does not support that opinion.

Err?

We've had the same record for like two decades under 3 coaches, and history doesn't support that that record is indeed the best anyone can reasonably expect to do here?
 
We are 12-34 against UGA since Dodd stopped coaching. For perspective, that is roughly the inverse of the winning percentage in our all-time series against Wake Forest.[/QUOTE]

I thought it was worse than that because that would mean we were behind them when Dodd left. Is that true?

Dodd was 12-10 against UGA. Heisman + Alexander were 15-19-5. The series was even after the 1965 game (27-27-5), but then Dodd lost in 1966.

After Dodd through O'Leary we were winning about 1/3 of the time.

After O'Leary we are winning 1/11 of the time.

Taking one out of three is competitive, IMO.

1/3rd isn't really competitive at all. It sounds ok when you say 1 of 3, but it sounds much worse when it is 11 of 33. And it certainly isn't enough to justify the amount of butthurt on this forum after we lose to them.

1-11 isn't that far out of line with what happened last time UGA had a relative peak in the early 80s.

And we're 4-18 post-1990.
 
Come on, guys, at least be honest.

Before Richt we were winning 1/3 of the time. During Richt we are winning 1/11 of the time.

We would have done a LOT WORSE this game with a pro offense and our players. We would have performed worse than the rest of the ACC did against Clemson.

In order to compete with this talent level, we need two things:

1) dummy majors to hide players in
2) boosters who will pay players

2) is something we don't have, and 1) is something the UGA controlled board of regents won't allow. Period point blank. Get used to it or pick a new team to watch.

When Paul Johnson is fired in 2014, which will probably happen unless Gurley gets shanked by Auburn this Saturday, we will become a regular 2 win team and BDS will be completely empty. The football program will end. PJ is the only coach in the country who could squeeze a winning season (and an occasional championship game appearance) out of our limitations.

If you're butthurt about losing to a team that's probably a legit top 5 team, who has boat raced everyone they've played but FSU, who is probably the best team the country's seen in the last five years, then it would be better for your own health to go be a Bama fan.

Complete BS!
 
Right now I am worried about losing to Pitt. I hope our unique option offense works and we do not fall behind early in this game and have to try to pass the ball. I hope it is not run left, run right, run up the middle and 3 and out

Pitt? We have already played them.

I bet they even let you vote.

I'm not sure he'd be at QB if he was, but he has potential to be very good in this offense.

Unless of course, you think Auburn's offense is "real" and ours isn't.

I think Auburn's offense is real and ours isn't.

Both are run-heavy, option-based offenses. The difference is that theirs isn't an 80/20 run to pass ratio all the time. They have games like the one before UGA where they only throw it 6 times. But they also have games like the one against UGA where throwing it is necessary and they throw it 26 times. As their coach said, "We can throw it when we have to. We would prefer to run it but when the defense dictates pass, we can do that too."

CPJ on the other hand seems to believe "We can run it against anyone." Nine men in the box....bahh...we can just use my brilliant plan and outscheme those 9 men.
Yeah, Paul.....good luck with that.

Lmao, GT is 119th in passing, Auburn is 103rd.....but, please, keep spewing your retarded narratives, they're hilarious.

I'm super worried about losing to Pitt too. Maybe even UVA or Duke at this rate.

Syracuse scares the öööö about me. Don't know how that game will play out but it's gonna be a close one that's for sure.
 
Losing to Pitt and Syracuse?

We should be more worried about getting blown out by Georgia, falling into the ACC Championship and getting blown out by FSU, and then getting beat by Houston in some s***** Bowl.

ACC problems.
 
It's funny how many times people have posted stuff like "Duke would destroy us now" or "Navy would destroy us" (Actual comment from after BYU game), but if we actually beat Duke or Navy you know they would give us no credit for it. They're just Duke or Navy after all.

In the world of CPJ haters, for lack of a better term of those who generally come around only when losing and greatly exaggerate our team's faults, CPJ has both recruited FCS talent and has zero ability to coach. Duke, UNC, Pitt, UVA and Syracuse are all worthless teams because we beat them, but Duke at least would destroy us if we played again. Their mind does not adhere to the boring Newtonian physics of the reality of being a #30-#40 team, but instead views every fact through a quantum mechanical uncertainty. Every fact is both true or false and takes one of those values depending on which one makes CPJ look worse.

Funny (and true).

But man are we a bunch of geeks or what?

26 is a funny number, the same number of times we threw it against Clemson. Some of that was being in catch-up mode, but we also threw it 24 times against VT. Those are the two opponents who really stacked the box and we threw 20+ times just like Auburn.
