What if Coley is the bad apple

I had a sense early on that something was different in the character of the program, a little bit off somehow. The quarterbacks seemed off whereas last year, despite Eason losing his job to Fromm, they seemed stable, competitive yet somehow settled. Things began to have a different feeling about them right around the time Coley got his promotion and took over the QBs. My sense is that Chaney may be more of the 'good man' type and Coley more the 'slick salesman' type and their personalities and methods conflicted, Chaney being more soothing and Coley being unsettling. I wouldn't be surprised to find Coley a source of controversy for us in the future. Thoughts?

    That's a boatload of speculation (not a personal attack)...I just don't know. KIrby will in all likelihood make the right decision.

    I think you have a very active imagination and should be a screen writer in your spare time.

    I'm published, but I haven't done any screen writing. What was weird about the post? That Kirby will make the right decision? You don't think he will? Or were you referring to the original post?

    I thought something was a bit off. :)

    No way. OC is never a hotbed for controversy in the fanbase. Especially at UGA.

  • kelly_bkelly_b Posts: 1,464 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    Honestly...there's no way I would want to be an OC. I'm sure it's cool and all, but it seems like the kind of occupation that requires a safe-word.

    Hey...what if Coley is not an apple at all? Hmmm...

    You guys are talking apples and oranges.

    The problem with shifting coaches was about training, not about ''bad apples''. I think Kirby made a mistake when he shifted Chaney from QBs, it seemed to stunt the entire passing game for much of the season.

    One thing is for sure...Jim Chaney has never eaten an apple nor an orange....

    I'd be fine taking the money and crashing spectacularly.
