If Pruitt starts Guarantano against Kentucky—he is not a legitimate coach.

No, he needs to do more. Not making a terrible decision under duress that turns into a pick would be a good start. A 5th year senior shouldnt be doing that.

I said the pick was on him. He is what he is. No QB would of done any better Saturday. That's my point. Can't argue it

A coach gives his team a chance to win by exhausting every possible option.

We lost to Georgia yesterday with a 4th string QB.

Our defense played their asses off. And guarantano handed them the game by being concrete footed in the pocket, slow to make decisions, and just completely inept.

This isn’t a shock either. We’ve known what we have at QB for 3 years now. The fact that guarantano has started a game after the Bama game last year(even before that if we’re being honest), makes me SERIOUSLY wonder if Pruitt is a competent coach.

And makes me wonder if our administration is competent giving him an extension....

A coach gives his team a chance to win by player the players who will give them best chance to win. I trust the coach,s judgement more than a poster on this board.

Never said he was great, but he played well enough to win the first two games. That's all we need him to do. A lot of people didn't play well vs UGA

We need to get someone who can win games for us imo. Tired of being one dimensional. I want to beat Florida and Alabama

Watching him choke for 3 years isn't "kneejerk 'ish".

It's actually the definition of Insanity.

The whole team forgot there was another half to play. JG had his issues, but when his jersey is covered in grass stains and dirt after the first half we had, you can't put that on him. I'm not saying he's immune from getting some blame, but he's not the reason we lost. JG has been the whipping post too long, as well as most every QB we have had play since 2008 not names Dobbs. People always blame the QB first and it's ridiculous in this instance considering what happened the second half.

Don't think we lost because of guarantano but they definitely doubled us up because of guarantano.

JG isn't even a Top 5 reason we lost yesterday.

I bet you wouldn't have wanted that change prior to the 2nd half issues the entire team had....

Get out of here with that kneejerk 'ish.

You lost all credibility with your first statement. The line was terrible, running game non existent. In these instances you need a game changer at QB. JG crapped the bed under the duress. He was done mentally in the 3rd Qtr. He is an average QB at best, a game manager, except he don’t manage too well under stress.

You make me wonder about you. Is JG a good QB NO, did the others show us anything more last year NO. we were tied for the longest winning streak in the nation, and lost on the road to what I see as the best team in College Football. Maybe Coach Puritt is not the one that is incompentent

Until Harrison Bailey is ready, JG will be the starter. We know the other guys don’t have it. We saw it last year.

Jeeezzz, 🙄

Hell, we've given JG five years and numerous starts to figure out he doesn't have it. The least we can do is give the other two guys more than a handful of plays in a few games of one season to make that decision about them....

JG just needs another year under Chaney and to be a 6th year senior. With that experience and "veteran" status next year is the year for JG to finally put it all together! It always takes 10 years of high school and college ball for most QB's to really get going anyways!

We are 2-1 and will probably be 3-1 after next week. Most of the sports media were picking us to go .500 or below. We don’t have any true playmakers at WR and Chandler and Gray are slightly better than average RBs. JG isn’t great but he was hardly the sole reason we lost. People lose perspective so quickly around here

What....the hell....were you....watching!!?!?

How long are you going to make excuses for Guarantano? He literally gave UGA 6 points to start the 2nd half and deflated our entire team. He was completely inept.

Ga State. BYU. Florida. Bama. Those were all games we lost last year because of him. Now we’ve just lost to Georgia of his ineptitude.

HOW. MUCH. MORE. DO. YOU. HAVE. TO. SEE?!?

Do you want him to replace the OL too? We have already tried changing the OL numerous times and JG still sucks.

The QB is the position we can change next. We have been blaming the OL for JG’s entire career. How many different OL’s do we need for him?

We need just one to perform at a high level consistently, so as to take them out of the equation of placing blame for bad offense.
So far we have had 0.
