I love these type of posts

Waiting to be proven wrong. May be a long wait

Think you missed the very essence of my post.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

I really think Tee returns and we won't fire anyone to make it happen.

I have doubts we try for Pittman, I think Friend will coach TEs or RBs to give Pittman OL, but I mostly just don't think Pittman leaves, I bet he gets a new contract & big buyout. Georgia isn't Bama, Kirby can't lose too many coaches.

Jim Chaney plus Jeremy Pruitt =

Great series. Better book.

Question on Chaney....

Isn’t there a lot of criticism of how under used their TE, Mecole Hardman, and that 5 Star transfer from Cal was?

Fair or nah?

SIAP.....UGA was second in the SEC in scoring and I think may have set school record for points in a season. I don't think you could criticize too much about the production of his offense and besides, there is only one ball to go around.

 

[Sleegro]

Possibly Pittman to bama?..interesting! Major butthurt in these screenshots also.

I like that one of the only replacements they mention is Dooley. hahaha

 

[MetalVolunteer]

There are rumblings that things are not so good in Georgia right now.

I’ve heard that the coaching atmosphere is pretty toxic down there.

Expect more turnover with Coaches and transfers.

Was told that a couple of their signees are contemplating asking for a release.

 

[InVOLuntary]

If Pittman and Tee come recruiting will go through the roof

T will help, no doubt. Hard to improve oline recruiting, this year. That's assuming we get Darnell.

Yeah I guess a little but he sure did get the best out of CP in 2012 here

It's funny how we all stress stability and know the importance of it after our last decade and seeing what Clemson has done. And seeing how instability can even affect a machine like bama. But still we are clamoring for 2 or even 3 more coaches to be replaced. I get the whole Tee for Weinke thing because even though I don't think Weinke's doing bad at all we all know and love Tee. But I don't even want Pittman really. At that point we'd be replacing over half our offensive staff. And in case you haven't noticed, Friend has been getting some really good OL to sign with us. And IMO did a good job with a bad situation last year. I don't think Pittman would be enough of an upgrade to offset the loss of someone else on our staff.

This. Pittman is great, but so is Friend. You can't base his player development results from last season. He lost the best two O-linemen in Smith and Kennedy from the start. He made do and had to protect a statue at QB. Now he brings in the best O-line class in America if Wright comes. He is universally recognized in the industry as one of the top three. We are good here and apparently, Chaney agrees.

Can any of you answer any of these. Fyi alphabetic order so as not to offend anyone.

Do you guys think we get an OC this week?

Is it likely to be a guy we've already discussed or has been reported?

Will it involve promoting an internal guy to OC and hiring an external position coach?

yes, I believe we will get an OC this week.

Sorry my friend. I've been in South Florida since Saturday and have spent very little time on the boards. Playing a lot of golf. Return to Tennessee on Saturday.

Look for Tee to join staff fairly soon. Not sure we get things worked out on Pittman but certain Jim will try.

 

[de1conley]

Cool! So Chaney’s daughter is wanting to go to vet school?

She's already a UT student

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

There are rumblings that things are not so good in Georgia rite now.

I’ve heard that the coaching atmosphere is pretty toxic down there rite now.

Was told that a couple of their signees are contemplating asking for a release.

Like like like like and like some more! I mentioned this a few weeks ago that I was wondering if something wasn’t right in Athens, dating back to when they lost a few high profile commitments within a couple of days. I wonder if there is any chance Kirby might be considering jumping to the NFL?

'It is what it is' when it comes to Georgia losing Jim Chaney to Tennessee

I know a lot of Georgia fans were snickering at the news Tuesday night. They’re thinking the Bulldogs just got rid of damaged goods. But there isn’t a position more heavily criticized in football than an offensive coordinator. Likewise, Chaney had drawn more than his share of ire for play-calling and substitutions the last two years.

But Chaney did some good work at Georgia, and that shouldn’t be dismissed. Coordinators should always be judged on bottom-line production, and that’s yards and points and third-down conversions and red-zone scoring percentages and the like. In that regard, Chaney did a very good job at Georgia. The Bulldogs were first in rushing, second in scoring and third in total offense this past season. Their 39 points per game scoring average was the second-highest in school history. And they got a little better each year under his watch.

Yes - laughed. And mentioned Freeze too. Warm welcome for Coley stepping up.

 

[pierce60]

I think it is much more likely that Pittman ends up in Tuscaloosa than Knoxville, if he decides to leave.

 

[JCP201]

We are a basketball school, and with Chaney hire, soon to be a football school again..

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Lmao. Poor Hank.

Screw Hank..

[MoCo_Vol]

Anyone else get a Mushchamp vibe from Kirby?


I get a Dabo vibe from Pruitt, expects a lotta outta everyone but "loves on em" too. Feel like if you call Pruitt up and your car broke down he's coming to pick ya up.

How are you feeling about the state of our program?

 

[bignewt]

UGA will own the East for the next 3-5 years.

I have some money that would like to take yours on that one.

 

[UTSuave’]

I'm laughing at the post that said they ran, and occasionally passed. During last year NC game, they complained that Chaney didn't get the ball to Chubbs and Michel enough, and they were too pass heavy. Bring on Chaney.

The Denial on that forum is a understatement right now.

Boom britches.


He doesn't get the love but Chaney is sneaky good. We know that from his time here. For want of a Defense we could have won the east with what he put together here.

 

[Rishvol]

I was leaning towards we beat the pups before the Chaney hire, but now I'm starting to entertain the idea
