Would you trade Heup for any of our rival's coaches?

Obviously this is just one of those offseason, can we please talk about football topics. I saw it asked on Redditt and thought it might stir some conversation here while waiting for the season to start. Just for clarity I really love our coach and am glad he is here. I actually think this topic made me appreciate him more after looking at what is out there.

For me:
Smart: yeah, probably. I hate to admit it but the dude is on top of the game right now.
DeBoer: Nah. I don't think he would be a step back and proved at Washington he can win but I like Heup better right now
Napier: Hell no.

Other coaches I would trade Heup for? That is tough. Day has the current NC but is he great or is Ohio State talent great? I am not so sure. Sark has been good at Texas but has a history. Guys like Kelly and Franklin are past their prime. I think the only two guys in addition to Smart would be Dabo and maybe Dan Lanning. I am not saying Heup is the 4th best coach in the country right now but he is already established here and I would really need a proven winner to go through the pain of another coaching change.

The only coach I would say yes to would be smart. Other than that I would pick coach huep. I have faith huep is gonna get that ugly Georgia monkey off his back this year.

I keep seeing all this gushing praise for Kirby. He’s not that great of a coach (hear me out)

- he inherited not a dumpster fire from the previous admin
- he recruits in one of the plethora states in CFP (maybe only Florida has more talent)
- GA for the past many years has had a ridiculously soft schedule

Kirby is taking advantage of the situation he inherited. Good for him. His teams are full of drug addicts and reckless drivers. He could never beat Saban, something Heupel did twice.

So, no I would not trade CJH for any of those other clowns.

UGA has had a lot of coaches over the years (and by that, I mean every other coach they've ever had) who haven't done what Kirby has been able to do.

But it only took Heupel two years to beat him.

How many times has Heupel beaten Smart? It only took Smart two years to make a national championship game.

Pure delusion on this board if you think Kirby and Heupel are on the same tier. The question you should ask is which of our rivals would trade their coach for Heupel? Florida, Kentucky, Vandy would. Bammers would be split. Not a single Georgia fan would trade Kirby for Heupel.

Kirby Smart is the only one that I can think of off the top of my head but I am not sure Smart would do as well in Knoxville. He was a perfect fit for Georgia.

Right now? Probably not. Heupel inherited a mess and has done nothing to indicate to me he doesn't know what he's doing.

I'm not delusional enough to believe we are gonna be in the NC hunt every year regardless of who the coach is-double that for current times when $ is 90% of the equation. We just don't have the alumni $ at this time.

The man runs what seems to be basically a squeaky clean program with little nonsense. As long as we beat one of the Big 3 every year and make a the playoffs every few years? I remember what I went through 2009-2020 man
Sometimes good enough keeps me happy for quite a while.

If we were to trade Heupel for Kirby, I don’t see Kirby doing any better than Heupel with our roster and Heupel is a much more likeable person with more integrity so, no, I wouldn’t make that trade. Same goes for Sark. There isn’t enough of a value add to have an impact. The only coach I remember getting the most of his team and consistently over performing his roster was Chris Pederson

I don’t know what your point is. He didn’t beat him twice, neither did Heupel.

I’m sorry, 2022 and 2024…Heupel beat Saban more than Kirby ever did and with fewer attempts. Where do you get your stats from?

My point is, I would not trade CJH for Kirby. Kirby is not as good as everyone thinks. He’s a lucky man taking advantage of the cards dealt him.

Are you under the impression that Saban was the coach at Alabama last year? Also, Tennessee lost to Alabama in 2021.

NO! I would not trade for anyone, including Smart. I still remember how great he wasn't before he got a stable full of 5*. I would love to see what CJH could do with the number of 5* players Kirby has.

The argument i have to this is that Kirby is the one recruiting the five stars. Recruiting is a part of coaching, too. I love heupel though and I would have a hard time trading heupel even for Kirby smart and Dan lanning
