Mark Richt Fired by UGA, Hired by the Canes

Re: Mark Richt Fired (per Mark Schlabach)

So why before the bowl game?


If it is Kirby...do you think he will stay till after all our games are over?

Absolutely. No way does he leave before a NC game, and potentially a title on the table.

What? :conf2:

This makes way more sense than the Les thing. What he did for the Florida game was pretty much unforgivable. He's supposed to at least try to win games and that was just a joke with throwing what, a third string completely untested guy out there for the heck of it? Didn't go so well either... you pull that kind of stunt, you'd better hope your QB doesn't throw 4 interceptions.

I have a feeling that we will be looking for a OC and DC next season...

I had that feeling quite a while ago.

Disagree. Miles loves it at LSU, and he's a perfect fit there. I believe he and the AD will work out their differences and Les will stay.

Les loves LSU no doubt but the LSU brass has shown they can't be trusted, especially that lowlife AD.

Boy how football has changed when a 9-3 season gets you fired.

it isn't a 9-3 season that got him fired

it's a decade of 9-3 seasons while filling the NFL with Pro-Bowlers

He has been amazingly consistent in under achieving based on the amount of talent he has had

Long overdue, imo

Re: Mark Richt Fired (per Mark Schlabach)

so are they going to make a run a kirby and take a chance on a coordinator stepping up to a hc position? or will they make a run for someone with a hc resume?

this was the first season where i saw a complete change in the homers finally realizing the depth of his mediocrity

No Surprise to me. It has come to a point in which MR needs to move on.

Re: Mark Richt Fired (per Mark Schlabach)

ESPN mentioned Mack Brown as a candidate. I laughed.

i may have to re-stock my liquor cabinet if that happens

From all I have been hearing, Dog fans have been clamoring for Smart.

Wow - I really thought Richt would be around for at least one more season.

Edward Aschoff ESPN 34 seconds ago ... When Mark Richt just isn’t good enough at a program then you know the machine is a cruel beast

Re: Mark Richt Fired (per Mark Schlabach)

I think Richt and Miles have both under achieved in recent years. Richt has looked like he wanted to be somewhere else all season to me.

Popcorn!

they seem to all want Kirby, which is odd to me. I wouldn't want to hire a first time HC

I think the one thing we all know is that the dawgs are likely to muck the entire thing up and look foolish doing it. Will be fun to watch

Maybe UGA was impressed by Muschump's fire last night and plan to offer him the job?

And with all the openings in the carousel thus far, it couldn't come at a better time.

They are convinced he is the reason for Coach Sabans success.

Normally, no. But Kirby isn't just any old assistant. He's the OC to the greatest coach in college football. Which is saying a lot.

Re: Mark Richt Fired (per Mark Schlabach)

Staff meeting at noon. Belief is that everyone on the staff will be let go. My source is good.

Wow if so I am sure they will go right after Kirby and Saban needs to be calling Pruitt immediately.

 

[KentuckianaBFan]

Re: Mark Richt Fired (per Mark Schlabach)

Wonder if we will take Jeremy Pruitt to replace Kirby.

Would Kirby want Pruitt as DC?
