I'd give Willie a LIFETIME CONTRACT if we could get rid of Bobo.
GAR, quit fooling yourself. They BOTH need to go. They are staff infections.
Totally. I think Richt should have summarily dismissed them both at the post game press conference, brushed his shoulders of and said "It's BOCA Time!"
That said, given my hatred for Bobo's play calling far surpasses my hatred of our shitty defense. The Soft Zone has probably worked once, somewhere. That fucking shotgun draw has lost 100,000 yards for the Dogs since 2006.
Man, I couldn't be further from you on this front. I at least have seen signs of effectiveness from Bobo at different points over the last 3 seasons. I think an O-coordinator can be brought down by players. Our O-line has been the biggest disappointment this year. It's been a travesty and the fact that we can't run the ball, AT ALL, doesn't help our mediocre QB. What is he supposed to do? I've watched him try to establish the run. Is he supposed to keep at it after the 4th 3 and out. Not being able to run = death. Is his play calling predictable and conservative? Absolutely. Should he be evaluated and possibly let go at the end of the year? Yes.
But nothing compares, IMO, to the numbers and performances we are seeing on D. We are ranking near the bottom of the country in rankings where it matters in total D, scoring D, and turnover ratio (around #116 or something). I've always thought that good D-coordinators should coach up guys and make good players great. We've got 5 star studs not able to defend basic offense packages and looking completely confused after being in a system for 3 and 4 years.
I can find excuses for Bobo (however hard) but for me, Willie simply does not have what it takes. I'm not even saying fire him really. Maybe he should be upstairs in the booth providing valuable info but as a field general he fails miserably.
I understand this, but for the past 4 years I have been able to see that draw play coming from 1000 miles away. It is the bane of my existence. He doesn't tailor the offense to his player's strengths is my biggest problem. The fact that Stafford didn't have a good 8-9 yard slant play, or the fact that we insist on running screens with a QB with a weak arm, and never let the pressure come and THEN dump the ball is just poor coaching along with poor execution. As Stu would say: HIGH SCHOOL COACH!
As to the run -- GA has abandoned the run consistently when they get in trouble, and it always drives me nuts.
