Chaney has a lot of positive s

Flexes to scheme and head coach (fit)

Has explosive offenses. Even at UT

Can be power run when needed or wanted - AR and UGA

Is generally known to be easy to get along with and funny. Important for chemistry and long working days

Good with QB's

Generally sticks for several years where ever he goes

Knows UT and SEC

That's a good stat. Perhaps the leopard has changed his spots? I'm judging based on what we saw when he was here, and especially the debacle of 2012. He was anything but ball control while he was here.

I think you’re spot on (no pun intended :))

I think he has grown as a play caller in his time since Tennessee and adjusted to the league better. Not sure if that has more to do with the Georgia talent or what, but something to keep an eye on.

His biggest positive is that Sam Pittman goes where he goes

I think Pittman is good, but I just don't understand the gaga over him, and never will...UGAs OL sucked tonight.

Recruiting reputation...otherwise solid OL guy. Replacing him with Mahoney wasn’t fatal...not recognizing that Mahoney couldn’t hang and failing to replace him within two seasons...was.

My (likely unpopular) opinion of Chaney: Brilliant offensive mind, schemer, and developer of talent.... mediocre to poor play caller.

His play calling was maddening during the Dooley era. We had a very explosive offense. We could score points. But, his play calling just wasn't conducive to complementary (winning) football. Our D was so bad. But we had so many drives that went 1st down: Chuck it deep, 2nd Down: Chuck it deep, 3rd Down: Chuck it deep, 4th Down: Punt. Our Swiss Cheese Sal D needed a rest and to be off the field as much as possible in order to win games. We had good running backs. But we were a pass first offense with hardly any rhythm.

His play calling style -- which is very very aggressive -- could hardly be considered a good match for Pruitt's ball control personality.

I don’t agree that we had good running backs.

Embrace Will Friend, all of these “misses” are preparing you for the inevitable. It’s coming just like ear hair and constipation

It's difficult to "miss" on someone you never offered. It appears that Jurich has a formal offer, but we will probably never know how many others received formal offers from UT, if any. To assume that there are multiple "misses" is simply talking out of your backside.

i think there's only 3 things you can say somewhat definitively about this search so far
1. there was interest in Hugh Freeze, how far it ever got, don't know, doubt there was "formal offer", but i do believe there was serious interest.
2. Yurcich got well past the "guage interest" phase apparently. appears to be heading to OSU. it happens.
3. we're not promoting from within.


past that, everything esle is speculation.

Your entire post is “talking out of your backside” nothing has been shared about this search. To suggest Will Friend has no chance is based on the same non existent information as the ones who claim “coach a” is being pursued.

Never been his biggest fan, but I liken it to the Barnes hire. We were bleeding then...and now?

yeah, if we were further along in our "development" as a program, i'm not sure i'd view hiring him as a step forward.

for a 4-8/5-7 program needing some semblence of stability, i don't have an issue with it at all. may be just what we need right now.

i think at this point, if i got to choose, i'd choose Sark. but i won't be mad at all if it's JC.
