Good Bye, drama reduced, next up. Go Dawgs!
Next man up!
It's not the x's and o's , it's the Jimmy's and Joes. Or we're about to find out!
It’s one thing to call plays for the team with the best players and another thing in the NFL where no team is extremely more talented than the others. It will be interesting to see how the Ravens do with Coach Monken calling plays. Of course, I wish him great success in the NFL.
Thanks Coach for your three seasons calling plays for the Dawgs!
I suspect Kirby has already been on the hunt. Hopefully he finds someone like minded to monkens style. We don't really need a complete new style offense to come in. That always causes regression. Would be terrible to go back 2 back national championships and then have a severe fall back. (Lsu 2019 season -2020 season)
**On dawgs247, already saying Bobo has been promoted.**
Not surprised! This drug on for too long to be a negotiating ploy for a guy who was already the highest paid assistant in college football. It felt like Monken wanted to leave for whatever reason. I'm sure KS has a short list to replace Monken, and Bobo has to be on that list. I will say don't count out Bobo and Bryan McClendon as co-offensive coordinators similar to what KS did with Muschamp and Shuman last year.
In the words of Curly Bill……
well…. Bye
A few more observations/comments... It was never about absolute dollars or even awards/trophies for Monken... what it was we may never know, but the fact that he even interviewed in the first place told me he was leaving because he wanted something different, despite any "logic" any of us poured into the situation.
I'll be forever grateful for what he did while here. He made a significant difference, and I wish him similar success wherever he goes.
Like some of the boyfriends and girlfriends of my kids over the years, they might be wonderful people, but I try not to get too attached because people move on.
The program and culture Kirby built has massive inertia and is fully sustainable, certainly much bigger than any one coach or player.
Go Dawgs!
Told you guys TM was two feetout the door the minute the clock struck 0.00 after the NC game. I'm happy this 3 week saga is past Kirby and his program. My gut tells me Bobo is our new OC and will do a great job for the future of the Bulldawg program.
Go Dawgs!
BoBo averaged just 20 points per game as our OC against FLorida in 7 years. Maybe he's gotten better.
Monken has provided a great blueprint; we just need to continue the success with the plan that's worked well already. Go Dawgs!
With the Dawgs defense for 2023, that 20 points against FU will give us a double-digit win in Jacksonville!
GO DAWGS!
What a great OC and wish him the best of luck. There is no debate between play calling or players. You need both - when you have elite talent like UGA has you need elite play calling and Monken provided that in spades. Hoping Bobo can do the same. Go DAWGS
Fired as a head coach and OC twice. Kirby values friendship way too much. I wonder how many of the WR's stick with their commitments
Here we go!😎
