Garner hurt us bad. We have never fully recovered from his departure in my opinion. Trooper will be another blow. Garner is happy in georgia. There were some bridges burned back then and like hat said there won't be a reunion. It would be nice to start picking the best out of georgia again though.

Don't you guys think Phil's position (security) has changed since Garner left??? If he is as good as I hear, isn't it time for Phil to be a man and reach out to the guy? He can't be making the money at UGA they we could pay.......

Sure money can be a cureall. But garner's a smart man. He would have to work alot harder here than at georgia. But make him the right offer and he may think about it real hard i bet.

UGA is one of the most successful (financially speaking) Athletic Departments in all of college sports. They can pay every bit if not more than UT can afford.

Rodney Garner leaving left us screwed for the next decade, Trooper might screw us for the rest of the recruiting year.

However, UGA can't sell him on the possibility of becoming the HC......We are all stuck with Richt until HE wants to leave.

Don't even know if he is qualified but I guarantee Fulmer will be gone before Richt!!!

with the way Fulmer talks, Garner can become an HC somewhere else by sticking to what he's been doing. Replacing Fulmer is not a huge selling point IMO because Fulmer has mentioned staying around for quite some time.

Rodney is taking great pleasure in watching Fulmer slowly fade away. The only thing Garner will throw Fulmer as Phil continues drowning is an anvil.

I can't deny that . . . but the fact remains that we've handled Georgia head to head lately.

Alabama handled us head to head. What did that get them? So did Cal. Where are they?
