Apparently these people havent been UGA fans for long. Richt is head and shoulders above any coach we have had recently that is not named Dooley.

Wasn't Dooley the last coach to win Georgia an SEC Championship before Richt?

That makes Richt, by default, Georgia's best coach since Dooley.

That is exactly what I am saying. I dont think these new UGA bandwagon fans have any clue about our history. I have suffered through some tough seasons and I am thankfull that we are atleast in the race almost every year. Hell the 90's where horrible. We couldnt beat UT, UF, or GT on a consistant basis.

technically you didn't beat TN or FL at all......so they shouldn't be included in your list.

And we thank you for allowing Ray Goff and Jim Donnan to pad our record against you guys.

Richt's a good coach, but until he starts dominating the SEC and wins a national title, he is not great.

UGA reminds me of a stock.
Last year at one point UGA was 0-5 against the SEC east teams, meaning every east team had beat UGA in a row. At some point last year, after the UT game, everyone was screaming buy buy buy (right after the UF game) and somehow they were became a MNC team caliber at the end of last year and the start of this year. The bama game busted the bubble, so I can see why the fans are down, but they are still a good team, somewhere between the low of last year and the high of this.

The Vols are Lehman Bros, just waiting for the buyout.
