I usually bring up the records to prove he isn't All That and to poke fun at UGA fans. I know deep down Smart is an upgrade from Richt just like I think everyone knows Harbaugh is an upgrade from Hoke. But it is fun to humble an arrogant fan base that hasn't won anything after they claim that they have finally bought the Messiah as their head coach.
I think a comparison can be made, but I also think it's way too soon.
Kirby makes way too many stupid decisions. Plus he will never get over “X and Kirby”, he can’t defend current offenses. With Richt, you at least knew what you were going to get.
Where I am with Kirby (turning all biases off) is that going into next year, he will have the most loaded team in the SEC, but I guarantee you no one is going to be confident in him winning the SEC. Why? Two words... Jake Fromm. He literally chased off two better quarterbacks to keep his game manager. He is playing a Flintstone age gameplan when we are in the Jetsons era. Yes he will win 10 games next year, but do you really have faith in him winning more?
I would like to see GA compared to Alabama when everyone makes their NFL decisions. If Alabama has the right folks return, you will be the favorite to win it all again next year.
Usually they are sent to Central or South American countries and given out to people who need them.
I don't think that is what he meant, but agree that Richt, over his career at GA, had to deal with a much tougher division. TN was tougher. The Gators were tougher. But by the time Richt left, Mizzou was winning that division. Talk about weak.
