This year was going to be hard and we all knew that and accepted it, to a degree. There have been injuries and attrition, but we haven’t seemed to get better or show signs of improved effort. Instead we sit here in game 10 with 1 yard of net rushing? That is a hard pill to swallow when your coach is offensive minded. There is no counter-punch to anything the other team is doing. Is that due to talent or competence from the guys in the headset? I’m not for firing anyone that you signed a contract with, but the effort on the field and the body language and verbiage from the sidelines makes it easier and easier to find excuses to do other things on Saturday afternoons.

I wonder if he did that in Columbia last year? I’m gonna go on a limb and say no
Kirby Smart’s son is a regular fixture on the UGA sideline and it doesn’t seem to be a problem.
This guy isn’t Kirby Smart. Kirby Smart gets his team prepared prior to game day. For Kirby Smart game day is just a product of what took place before game day. No matter what was being said or done at the moment of that picture it’s a bad look to be spending time with your young child while your team is absolutely imploding on game day. I’m all for everyone having a good work to family balance but time and place have to come into play. It’s a bad look for our leader. I’m also for sportsmanship but it’s also a bad look for our leader to be laughing with the opposing teams coach after the game. A respectable hand shake would have worked just fine. Leaders have to appear to be leaders, it’s important.

To think that Armanti Edwards was never paid a penny and some of these players yesterday were….

When he has us playing for conference championships, he can do those things. Until then, he should have clean shower shoes.

The ESPN app match up prediction no longer has us favorites in last 2 remaining games of the season. I am not in disagreement with that. 4-8!
I will say in my work life I will not hang on to an employee very long that cannot perform. They need to be given all the tools they need to be successful. May be old school boomer mentality but holding folks accountable and replacing poor performance cannot be overlooked.

ESPN projects a 2 loss Navy team as the playoff team for the lowly G5. It makes zero difference to even discuss this especially now but if they get the nod over JMU what does that say about the Belt? Basically our champ will about have to go unbeaten.
