I had the pleasure of seeing him play at The Barn quite a few times. He was a game changer. If he’s half that good of a coach, he will be just fine.

He was a good player at Auburn, hopefully he has learned from his past coaching experiences and I'm sure has grown from them

Here is facts I know. He is a nomad, doesn’t stay anywhere long. He is no nonsense. When hired at Ga, he was asked if Ga Dline needed to get bigger, his response: NO, nothing but a bunch of lard (butts). He loves coaching. He hates recruiting (his words). He doesn’t like kissing (rings) of teenagers.

You can fill in the parentheses with other (words).

New question. Which player do you think will benefit most from Rocker? Obviously I hope they all benefit, but one player that you think will benefit the MOST. I think Shy Tuttle will benefit the most. Finally will learn how to use his size to plug the hole in the run game, and use his hands better to rush the passer.

I just did a quick Google search and found this article.

You've heard this before... but Georgia's recruiting better than ever - Sports - Athens Banner-Herald - Athens, GA

"d-line coach Tracy Rocker has emerged as a recruiting rockstar."

I don't know a lot about Rocker, but this article contradicts the statement that he is a poor recruiter.

My boy plays with his son Kumar... Tracy is an electric human being, these kids know little of football as they are mostly baseball specific but there’s always one dad they are always around.

Building trust and relationships is essential in recruiting, we all know that. Our team is in good hands with Coach Rocker at least in my opinion.

At any rate, I digress. Rocker did fine for Richt. Rocker brought in many of the recruits that were the nucleus of last year's defensive team. What brought Richt down was, he just couldn't get over the hump.

Miami right now is the spitting image of Richt's UGA teams. They will win 10 a year, win their side of the division on occasion, but won't do much better. Along the way, there will be a head-scratching loss or two, like last year, when they lost to a 5-7 Pitt team when they were ranked #2 in the nation.

Rocker and Kirby Smart had a personality conflict. Nobody knows for sure what really happened. If I had to make a guess, I would say that Kirby's Type-A personality regarding recruiting just didn't mesh with Rocker's, and that's that. He will do fine at Tennessee.

Pretty sure Richt had at least 2 or 3 UGA teams that would of made the playoffs

02 and 07 definitely would have probably 12 also

He’s proven he can finish in the top 4 occasionally

Just wanted to see everyone's thoughts on NoogaVol423 as a poster. Been a member 3 years and post count is sub-par. I think we could improve our fan base if we got rid of him.

I'M NOT TRYING TO BASH HIM THOUGH.

He does have more likes than comments though. I think he’s aight.

*THIS POST IS NOT INTENDED TO BASH HIM OR BE NEGATIVE, STRICTLY JUST WANT OPINIONS*

Just wanted to see what every one thinks of the new DL Coach for UT.

Apparently the players that play for him love him. That being said, I’m curious of the job he will do here, because of his lack of production at UGA which led him to get fired before the 2017-18 Season.

He seems to be a great recruiter and player coach, but when it comes to results, he has lacked.

Thoughts?

All I remember about Rocker is his playing days at Auburn. And also that he is not related to John Rocker

Not sure how much you REALLY know that you think you know! Pruitt wasnt found in bed with a boosters wife, I know that for a fact! Now he was caught with a female student from FSU but it was not a boosters wife(and so his wife now made him choose and its the reason he was not at FSU any longer, so I would have to call into question ANYTHING else you say!

Thank god it was (allegedly, by rumor, nothing proven, gossip-loaded) only an easily impressed, naïve co-ed and not a worldly wise married woman. He could never get hashtagged for that!
