    I'm right there with you and will hopefully be eating crow right there beside you.

    We all complained about Chaney but our complaints were aimed at the wrong one. It’s always been Kirby and always will be until he realizes this is a fault he has. He hired Coley because he’s a yes man. I’m remembering a post from 247 where a poster quoted Jimbo about Coley. Jimbo called the plays Coley “helped” with the game planning. Basically Coley did what Jimbo said which is exactly what Coley is doing now.

    Do you think Kirby will take to heart this loss at home to an unranked USC Jr. team that was 2-3?

    After the hype video I'm very scared that he won't, that he'll double down instead and that he's thinking that he's gonna send all of CFB a message that radical uptight uber conservative low octane football can work instead of innovating.

    We may never see UGA attempt a pass again unless its to Charlie Woerner on an out route with 9 guys in to protect Fromm so that he has ample time to wait for Woerner to make it to the side line.

    Then one day the ball will go through Charlie's hands and into a DB's palms for a pick six. Kirby will pucker up, bench Fromm for the rest of the year and cycle in RBs as wildcat QBs that run up the gut for an average of 2-3 yards. Our TEs and WRs will be replaced by reserve OL

    My only real question after Saturday's game is...will Kirby leave the cupboard full for the next guy?

    I'm no where close to ready to even consider giving up on Kirby.

    But plenty of big time boosters will if he doesn't get his head out of his A$$ and quit this offensive approach of pure insanity.

    His creation of the Magill Society will backfire on him quicker than it got him all those facilities.

    There are tons of people put a lot of hard earned money into this football team just for the right to watch us lose to a 2-3 South Carolina team.

    That is absolutely inexcusable.

    Its Kirby's fault when we win and it's Kirby's fault when we lose.

    I don't think we have beaten a more talented team than us since Kirby has been the coach.

    Not very impressive when you can just cover up your inept offense by steam rolling over lesser competition.

    It also doesn't help you for when you play team on the same level as you.

    Kirby peaked in 2017 in the SECCG. Then in the NC it became clear. Kirby is scared. This isn't even 2009 Saban football he's trying to implement. He is almost completely scared of taking any probabilistic risk until it's absolutely too late, the team senses that, and it makes them feel like he doesn't really trust them. Kirby is scared. Every day is October 31st to him. He probably believes in ghosts and sleeps with one of those retro night lights plugged in the outlet, if the man can even calm himself down enough to even sleep. Kirby is scared.

    What you said about 3 and out is what I was yelling at the TV on Saturday...not wearing out the defense means you keep getting 1st downs, score relentlessly so that you wear the other team down physically AND mentally.

  • mikeshuemikeshue Posts: 36 ✭✭ Sophomore

    I say CKS, Coach Coley and Coach Pittman and the offensive line. They should be protecting the QB and opening holes. No excuses for short yardage problems. No reason for a QB to be extending plays. It can be argued that OF cannot hold their blocks for a certain period of time. Yes. Then have the receivers run timed intermediate routes. Underneath to soften the defense.

    How many times did we keep doing that with Chubb during the NC game, when it clearly wasn't working.

    youre too new for me to know when you are trolling and when you’re not.

    Lot of truth to what you’ve said about coaching “scared”, but maybe timid is a better word. I think you’re a little too extreme with your wording but I do agree we need to stop being timid and conservative and go out and try to destroy teams on offense. We gotta be explosive and dangerous and we just aren’t.

    I agree that most of our offensive philosophy comes from Kirby - protect the ball and limit turnovers,and use the running game to keep our defense off the field and wear down the opponents defense - but any talk of getting rid of him is ridiculous. Look at how long it took Saban and Dabo to become national title winners; Kirby will learn from his mistakes.

    I don"t know if our lack of passes to the middle of the field is by design or a case of Jake being more comfortable throwing to the sidelines and taking the safer option throw, but it seems to me that it's time to open things up and taking more of a chance with our route selection. We can go 10-2 or 9-3 every year playing this way, but Kirby has raised expectations and that won"t cut it anymore at UGA.
