Tank and Hunter are phenomenal talents. Nix is talented, ashford is talented, jav johnson is talented.. Defense is fairly good. You can tell when a coach is good even with teams that arent loaded in fact it is more difficult to gauge a coaches success w say bama level talent where you can call hb draws over and over and get 10 yards each time 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of being wrong, it’s just not looking at something with an objective view. I stand corrected. It was a brilliant game plan. Thank you.

I’m more prone to lay the lions share of the blame on the guys pulling in millions in salary who’s job is to focus 100% on football, not a bunch of kids juggling football and an academic load. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skill players are nothing without an oline. I think we are seeing that. You can have 6 5 star RBs but they won’t be effective at all without blocking. Harsin can’t block for them. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The oline will be worse next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s literally been years since they’ve had a successful, productive identity on offense. We’ve been lost in the wilderness even though we’ve been through 2 HC’s and at least half a dozen OC’s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icanthearyou 4,468 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Blame the players if you like but, in Georgia's last two games they faced teams with arguably less talent than we have. Those teams were competitive. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a fan of Harsin. What I am, at least try to be, is objective when I watch a game. I also understand that when teams lose the blame will go directly onto the coaching staff, that doesn’t mean that the team played good or didn’t have some responsibility for the game. Last time I checked, players are getting paid to play now, so yea, they deserve some criticism too. It comes with wanting to get money for playing in my opinion.

Not the right players for his system. It’s Gus system players trying to run a pro system. He has to run a Gus system for the players to be effective.

No one could have predicted they wouldn't be good in the Harsin system. It takes years to rebuild the OL. You've convinced me. Give the man an extension.
