Gailey "unlikely to return"

The story didn't say anything about Gailey being unlikely to return, other than that fans booed him last Thursday.
 
It's just been the second time they've mentioned it on the rumor mill now, which has a knack for predicting coaching changes.

Just throwing some links around...
 
The only reason they don't believe Gailey could lose his job is because he beat Clemson this year.
 
Yet, you blame only him for every loss.

Not going to defende nedleeds in any way, but I think I can explain this thought a little - please hear out my explination (and this may not be nedleeds idea, but at least how I see it).

I kinda see our team as two distinct parts - offense and defense (duh). But seriously, Gailey controls the offense, or at least has his hand some in the offensive planning, whereas it has been documented that he let's Tenuta do his thing (if I am wrong on this my whole thought process goes down the crapper, so please correct me if I am).

In the many scenarios that play out in our football games, we seem to have 2 main scenarios. Many games have been where our offense does so-so/borderline terrible and our defense does great, resulting in a win by us (like the referenced Clemson game). We also have had too many (by my count) games where our offense has been so-so/borderline terrible and our defense does not do good (sometimes terrible). I realize there are other scenarios, but in all of them, rarely (except against samford maybe, VT last year?), does our offense rise above the so-so level.

In the two main scenarios I listed, we have the people who credit Tenuta for the win, and Gailey for the loss. The defense wins you one, and the combo of crappy offense and crappy defense loses you the second. The problem is, it is very rare on our team that the OFFENSE bails out the other half.

If our defense does bad, we just simply will not win the game. Our offense just cannot overcome it. I cannot remember a game under Gailey where we have just outscored someone else in a shootout. If our offense does bad though, we still stand a chance if the defense plays lights out like they sometimes do.

I think this is where the thought comes in that it is usually Gailey's fault, even in the games where Tenuta's defense breaks down. It's because the offense rarely ever bails us out of a game, whereas it seems the defense does it all the time...right or wrong, I think that tends to associate more of the losses on Gailey's shoulder - because the defense usually does so much, they can forgive the one or two games a year that they don't perform as expected/hoped...but when the offense rarely ever performs as hoped, it gets blamed...

He's a dip****, yes. Different aspects of the team have failed us on our losses this year, Tenuta isn't all-world either. In this case however Gailey did nothing in the Clemson game to further our cause. Our offense sucked rocks. Clemson was held to 3 points. Gailey deserves no credit for that win, he is an idiot. He should be given 4 losses for the Maryland debacle.

All I want for Christmas is a UGA win, and a Gailey resignation. Can't I have both?
 
aero, if UGa is the SEC-E champ then...

there is no way the SEC homers officiating that game will allow UGa to lose.

I'm of the opinion that the SEC refs have given us a better deal lately - look at the way the ACC guys jobbed us last year!
 
SEC refs > ACC refs on all counts, including fairness, objectivity, and competency.

You really are a dumbass. Gailey deserves total credit for every win we've had with him as HC and total blame for every game we've lost. I've said pretty clearly on this and other boards that if we don't win out I think we should make a coaching change. But the stuff you criticize him for is just stupid.

Make me wonder what he'd think of you.

Wait - let me guess. "You don't make a million dollars a year". Dip****, indeed.
 
ACC refs are mainly incompetent. SEC refs are working an agenda. BJ67, you lost me on fairness.
