It's not like he had a bad deal at UGA and an easy sell to come to UK. He had a sarn good job and situation there before our offer. Not easy to move someone like that unless into a full coordinator position.

Worst of luck to Coach Garner in the future.

In all seriousness, it sounds like it wasn't just about the money. He had his reasons for staying, so we've got to respect that.

This is from that AJC article just posted...

"Garner will receive a moderate raise from Georgia — 'nothing like what they were offering at Tennessee,' he said —but no other promotions from his current titles of asst. head coach, recruiting coordinator and D-line."

Nothing like they were offering at Tennessee? So, what ... $300k? I can't believe he stayed if it wasn't even close. I like this guy and I wish we could've got him ... but he seems like he just wants attention almost every off-season. Glad he got it .... enjoy

I like our approach right now, go after who you want.
We have set a new bar.

I have no doubt Kiffin will fill every role on the staff with someone he desperately wants here. He's not going to settle.

Well I would like to know why Garner wasn't offered the LB or DB position earlier. Is Garner too good to coach LB but Coach O supposedly would have done it?

Oh well ... it's over now.

Sorry, you're a big stickler about IMO aren't you? It should be understood that everyone's statements are opinions if its not backed up by a link or source..I assumed it was that way.
