different sources have said this: he always liked Richt and wanted to coach w/ him, wasn't money as they basically matched him what he was getting and that the area in athens was better plus he was closer to his home town by 180+ miles

What took Gawja so long to figure out Pruitt is an as*? Been like that all the way back to his days as Hoover High School's DC. Word is that he either resigns or they terminate him later this week. Guess we will see.

If I were anywhere near a top tier college coach, I wouldn't touch the Georgia job.

I would. Winning cures most ills and the right coach could take that program to an elite level. Too much talent and fertile recruiting within a 200 mile radius of the school.

I would take GT over UGA, just because their song is cooler

Makes sense with all of the other openings.


I was hoping they would go for Al Golden, who belongs in the B1G. I don't think any of those other openings would consider Golden, no?

I don't think that they want Al Golden. It is hard to get your fan base excited by a coach that was just fired. I think they want the young successful mid-major coach, and this year those coaches will get snapped up by other (better) programs.

You're right, and this is exactly why Purdue is in this position. Pass on Kevin Sumlin for Danny Hope, keep Darrell Hazell instead of getting someone who has an inkling how to run a program, or fire him for another guy still wet behind the ears from a Sun Belt school. They deserve to win 2 games a year at this point.

A&M will find out soon enough that the problem is their head coach. Of course, that's a multi million dollar problem they have and one that will be hard to admit.

He's not a bad coach by no means. I just don't think he is in the upper echelon on CFB coaches. He sure hasn't earned the paychecks he has been receiving. I still think he has the demeanor of an NFL coach - kinda like the Steeler's coach. Or... he would probably fit in well with the USCw crowd.
