Re: Kirby Smart and the tug of UGA...
I think we're recruiting him to play linebacker.
Re: Kirby Smart and the tug of UGA… (nope, UGA hires FSU's Jeremy Pruitt)
This has to either be a joke or at the very least, wishful thinking.
Re: Kirby Smart and the tug of UGA… (nope, UGA hires FSU's Jeremy Pruitt)
He coached a defense full of NFL talent against a schedule made up of inferior talent. I was surprised by the hire because he hasn't had much time to really establish himself as a DC.
Re: Kirby Smart and the tug of UGA… (nope, UGA hires FSU's Jeremy Pruitt)
Yet another hire that happened so quickly after the vacancy became public that one figures it was all pre-arranged.

There are actually a few of us taking a wait-and-see approach to CJP. His X and O skills seem sound and he is reputed to have a good football mind, but his personality has shown a, well..., flaky side at times. There's more to command than knowledge. He had a good year this year and I'm not trying to downplay that, but I'm still leery. We'll see.

Other than the Alabama base that despise Pruitt because of his absence and recruiting tactics (Post-Bama), I have never met anyone who had a bad thing to say about Jeremy.

I think CJP is a good coach and a good recruiter, just don't expect any loyalty from him if he thinks something a little better comes along.
For a group that needed a shakeup I think he'll be a positive for UGA, but I think UGA fans should take a second and realize this is a guy who is taking a lateral move for more money. It's significantly more money, but that's the guy you're getting. I don't think there's anything wrong with it, I just don't want to hear any crying when someone does it and he takes his next job (and probably 5 recruits with him)

That ought to pretty much eliminate any undue pressure to repeat.

Til further notice they never have an excuse for not going undefeated through the ACC, although their OOC schedule takes an overdue step up next season, playing Oklahoma St. and Notre Dame along with UF and The Citadel.
Re: Kirby Smart and the tug of UGA… (nope, UGA hires FSU's Jeremy Pruitt)
Actually, I was thinking about it from Pruitt's perspective. Seminoles do need to get this hire right though. And of course keep their QB out of the hoosegow.
Re: Kirby Smart and the tug of UGA… (nope, UGA hires FSU's Jeremy Pruitt)
I was out all day, and I cam home to this news... This is pure comedic gold. I am not going to publicly rehash my feelings about Pruitt, but UGA must be desperate to get anything associated with Smart/Saban...
:biggrin:

Heh, yeah, coming in on the heels of Todd Grantham, just doing average could seem like an improvement. Low bar there.

Isn't this the guy that called Coach Saban the devil?

No, that was me. Turns out I was wrong and it was just that the purple and gold made him look that way. :wink:
