Yes, we've all heard the arguments for why Georgia should have won a title at some point over the past few decades. My point was never to dispute that we should have, or that it's been a stretch punctuated too often with disappointment. But in a class all our own for underachievement? No. As a particularly glaring example, I began following college football in 2001, and for the past two decades I've been hearing what a great program Tennessee has, historically. Ok. Look at where they've been for the last, what, 12 years and counting, set against what a great and storied program they're said to have. You're honestly going to tell me that's not even in the same discussion on underachieving as Georgia's close-but-no-cigar situation?
Dedicating resources goes to program management. And recruiting success is a necessary element to overall success. These things don't just float down gently from the sky into Sanford Stadium. When you look at the overall results, there's at least a few programs out there with similar size, resources, branding etc. as Georgia which aren't positioned as well as we are, haven't been for a while and (some of which) don't look to be any time soon. Whether the fact that they won a national title 15-20+ years ago, to our 41 years, is more important than consistently being good and very nearly great at times is debatable. I just don't see it as stable ground for such a strong conclusion as putting Georgia in a tier all its own.
If the dawgs are tired of all the negative comments. Then they should go out and win
It's ESPN. They can't even stream a whole college football without multiple screen freezes, loss of sound, etc. Pffffffft to their throwing shade at the dogs.......................for not winning the natty EVERY year.
