    I won’t watch gameday now without Pollack there to keep the sanity. I hope their ratings plummet without him. Mcafee is a joke. Desmond can’t hardly speak well and Kirk hasn’t gotten over being beaten by a Goff coached Georgia team.

    One person said he would only watch gameday if they come to Athens. I doubt they’ll set foot in Athens this year. Maybe the ole miss game.

    Go Dawgs!!

    After his interview with the Eagles, Schuman's title changed to DC...no "co".

    Muschamp is still "co" but Schuman is effectively the DC now.

    It’s really early yet but Caleb Williams and USC not looking so hot against San Jose St. They sacked Williams pretty hard a short while ago. People like Quirky Herbie and Doofus Dez are the ones that pick USC to be #6. Firing David Pollack was a HUGE mistake by. ESPN. I’ve even seen quite a few rival SEC fans that liked David. Being totally honest I’d never even heard of McAfee until he came on GameDay. I thought he was a virus protection company. 😂

    Man I love that FIRE! I think what is bothering Kirk, McDipshit, and Dez is they can't believe it is Georgia. They just can't believe Georgia is this great and they have to continue to talk about them. Straight up northern bias. Alabama gets a pass from New Yorkers and the whole country because they are considered the Gold Standard of College Football. Notice Reece doesn't care that much but just laughs and when Kirk asks who he picked he said Georgia and Kirk said yah like he knew that was coming. Reece is tapped in and knows. He is an Alabama Grad and picked Georgia so what does that tell you?

    They just can't stand it. It is bothering them to no end. They are looking for anyone, anyone who can stop this Georgia Train. They know Alabama is their best bet. They are hoping that the qb thing pans out for Bama and that those 9 5stars who are now sophomores show up big this year.

    What they don't realize is we will be better this year on offense and our defense is going to be ridiculous. This is going to be fun to watch this year. It is going to be like watching a slow motion train wreck as Kirk and Dez have to admit that the teams they have picked to knock us off have too many flaws. Then when we win it again it is going to be PURE GOLD. All I know is that if Alabama ever has a bad game against us I expect Kirby to put the foot on their throat and finish them and the mystique once and for all.

    Georgia will be the new GOLD STANDARD after this year. People will look back at amazement on what we have done to college football.

    It’s easy to pick Alabama and history is a factor. Winning three in a row doesn’t really happen and Saban is considered (currently) the GOAT. Those aren’t really evaluations of current teams though.

    Excuse me?, Lol...."No co...but, Muschamp is a co, Defensive Coordinator."? Don't you think your own statement, is a little contradictory?.

    Muschamp and Schumann are Co-Defensive Coordinators. Period. I hope you aren't thinking Schumann overrides the Experience of Will Muschamp. Title or not...that ain't happenin'.. IMO

    Schumann is a very talented Coach and recruiter...but, so is Muschamp. Will also has 2 HC jobs behind him along with a very respectable DC History with Texas and now, UGA. Schumann may well take it over one day, if Muschamp moves on. But, I think it's likely to be the other way around.

    They seem to have divided up the responsibilities efficiently. I'm guessing the titles are, so they could pay Muschamp top dollar and keep Schumann happy moving his career forward, as a reward for his loyalty and excellent performance.

    I don't think it matters much anyway. Kirby seems to allow the Offense and Defense to be run by committee. It encourages innovation. On Offense...the buck stops, with Bobo...and on Defense...I believe Schumann defers to Muschamp's experience. But, I could be wrong, in part or in whole. I just know what it says on the Program and roster.

    "Desmond Howard, Pat McAfee and Kirk Herbstreit all picked Alabama to win this year’s SEC."

    Makes me wonder, if they have some inside info that's not being reported. Bama has suffered from a lack of player development recently. Replacing both coordinators should help and I think it will, but how long will it take? Bama was lacking at O-line, receiver and by all reports they're not going to be great at QB.

    I think Bama will lose 1-2 regular season. Bama has more depth than LSU, but I think I would take the tiger's starting line-up over Bama's starters. What wins out in that match-up? I won't be shocked if LSU wins the West...

    @BigDawg61

    I understand that “CO” should mean both are “co”. But looking at the official UGA site, Muschamp is “co” and Schumann is the official “non co”.

  • BigDawg888BigDawg888 Posts: 1,626 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    Imagine what our defense would do to Williams...it would be like last year's Tennessee game but maybe worse. I think their is a good chance USC loses 2 this year and misses the playoff again. However, Williams stats should be great as should Bear's sack totals. Stats over Championships is the name of the game for certain players.

    I think GameDay got the same lady who spearheaded Bud Lite's genius marketing strategy

  • BigDawg888BigDawg888 Posts: 1,626 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    It's crazy to me that they fire a guy making only (this is according to the internet which is undefeated) 86K a year. That seems awfully low. I thought he was making closer to a million a year.

    Either way they are giving that Vegas Dressed Loudmouth 80 million over 5 years. Now I don't know but this seems like a lot for him. We wonder why ESPN and Disney are going down the toilet at light speed...

  • wpony714wpony714 Posts: 556 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    Not contradictory at all.

    Schumann's own X/Twitter account. Look at his bio line. It says Defensive Coordinator...

    https://twitter.com/CoachSchuUGA

    After he interviewed with the Eagles for their DC position....

    "Schumann saw his total annual compensation more than double from $805,000 to $1.9 million after talking with the Eagles. His contact was also extended a year in March to keep him through June 30, 2026....He also saw his title change to defensive coordinator after sharing the title co-defensive coordinator with Will Muschamp last season.

    Muschamp, the former Florida and South Carolina coach who coaches the Bulldogs safeties and nickelbacks, remains co-defensive coordinator, but it was Schumann getting the call for the annual preseason press conference for the coordinator Wednesday."

    Note the article's title.

    Nobody is saying that Muschamp isn't experienced or talented. But at some point, men at that level aren't going to be "co" indefinitely. If it didn't matter to Schumann, it wouldn't have changed. And the point was that you called Connor "sloppy", when in fact, he was absolutely correct.

  • BigDawg888BigDawg888 Posts: 1,626 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    Not a big titles person because if you are great at your job you get paid. Period. Analysts on wall street many times make much more than C level executives. It's all about what you bring to the table.

    Now with that being said it is important in some businesses to have the title in order to get the next job. Not always but many times. If a company has a pay scale attached to the job name then it is important as well.

    Pay Schuman whatever he wants. Give him an extra million every year he stays as long as we keep winning championships.

    Well said !! Fully Agree !! Our D would be for Devastate if we played USC !! They finally got it together and went on to beat unranked San Jose 49-21. But it took them long enough. And early on Williams was looking pretty poor. Against the Dawgs D he would have been annihilated !!

    And our O would put up Far more points. USC is overrated being at 6. I’m not even sure they belong in the top 10. But I guess it’s because of the weak conference their in. Our Dawgs are about to Show the world Why they will be 3 Time National Champions !! Go Dawgs !!

    I think we can take USC off the list of contenders. You either play defense AND have a good to great offense or you are not going to win. We will know more in a couple weeks after the LSU and Texas games. 4 contenders there playing a first month eliminator imo. Whoever wins is setup and whoever loses is in real trouble. Go Tigahs! Hook Em Horns!

    One last thought is if Sam Hartman turns out to be really great Ohio State might get upset...I will have to root for the Irish. Hoping Day gets fired after losing 2, Hartline moves on to somewhere else and we get the big prize - Jeremiah Smith. Dare to Dream...Baby....Dare to Dream!
