Anybody want to talk football?

Sure you did. All Georgia homers said Richt could recruit with the big boys. Here's why:

2002 - #3 class, outrecruited Bobby Bowden, Nick Saban, Jim Tressel, Bob Stoops, Pete Carroll

2003 - #6 class, outrecruited Mack Brown, phil fulmer, Bobby Bowden

2004 - #6 class, outrecruited Bob Stoops, Jim Tressel, Mack Brown, phil fulmer

That's Richt's 1st 4 classes (Rivals only goes back to 2002 rankings). Starting with the 2005 class, rankings start to slip a bit.

Cause Richt sold recruits in the first 4 classes on Georgia being the new Florida State just like Kirby is selling recruits on Georgia being the new Alabama.

Richt couldn't get it done on the field, recruits started to notice and go elsewhere.
The issue is class size. We know Richt routinely failed to max out his roster limit, thus putting us behind the ball with depth. Here's the class sizes:

2001 - 27
2002 - 30
2003 - 23
2004 - 21
2005 - 17
2006 - 26
2007 - 24
2008 - 25
2009 - 21
2010 - 19
2011 - 26
2012 - 19 - 7 walk ons were awarded scholarships before the 2012 season.
2013 - 34 - This was the class after the 2012 SEC Champ game where out depth became a glaring weakness.
2014 - 21
2015 - 30
2016 - 22
2017 - 26
2018 - 26

With Richt, Georgia was usually short of max on scholarship recruited players (not walk ons). Kirby has kept us generally at or above max.
Kirby is on the clock.
 
I'm sorry, but losing doesn't mean jack s***!
Who the hell celebrates losing a playoff game and then celebrates losing an SEC championship?
We didn't celebrate losing the 1995 National Championship. We didn't celebrate losing the 2000 NCAA basketball championship. We sure as hell didn't celebrate losing the CWS championship in 2005 and 2011.
Why don't you add losing to Pedo State for the 1982 championship to your list of accomplishments.
Ummmm, we didn't lose them all. We won a lot and those 2 ass whippings in Jax count for a lot also

Nice comeback:rolleyes: Too bad I didn't initially respond to not losing them all, besides, 5-5 record in the last 10 years is nothing to brag about nor is it any type of domination the way you try to pathetically spin it. I simply responded to you celebrating your almost championship in 2017 and your almost SEC title in 2018.

fsumc couldn't have said it any better, and didn't Dale Earnhardt once say 2nd place is the first loser?
 
They can’t get that through their heads about it does make a difference how much talent you inherit and what kind of shape the program was in when said coach inherits the program especially when it comes to coaches like Saban and Mullen.

Mullen took over a 4 win program and preceded to win 10. Smart took over a 10 win program and preceded to win 8. Saban took over a mess at Bama as well.
Smart had a true freshman QB and a horrible OL.
 
Meanwhile Florida State is 80th in all time wins. :confused:
When you looked that up did you happen to notice the first year we started playing football? And congratulations on having a ton more wins while playing football twice as long as us and having a third the number of our national championships.

Like I said before, the fans who don't care about history have no history. It could be worse. You could be like Insta and just pick when the history starts.
However, touche on the nattys comment. It is what it is. We have underachieved.

What history do you have? Harvard started playing football before UGA. Does that give Harvard bragging rights? You’re talking history like you’re Notre Dame and there’s a UGA version of the Four Horsemen in your record books. You are a regional program and have always been one. Your national blip left when Herschel Walker declared for the USFL.
 
This guy talks about UGA's history like they're ND. UGA has two titles in over 100 years of football, their history is trash. And your first title was won when many schools weren't even fielding a team because their players wer off at war. Congrats on all your victories from the leather helmet days before desegregation. Playing more games and having less accomplishments isn't anything to brag about, but no one ever accused y'all of being smart.

You don't leave the panhandle very much, do you?

Says the guy that believes CFB started in 1990.

You refuted nothing I said. Nice work. And for what it’s worth I’m living in my fifth state in the last 14 years. No one cares about UGA outside of the southeast.

LOL. Comical. First you have UGA fans saying that nobody cares about the past because UGA really has no history and then you come around and say you do.

You UGA fans need to get together and figure out what really matters. It’s funny watching all of you guys talk in circles and contradict each other. Just goes to show exactly what kind of football program you do have.

I don’t believe college football started in 1990, but I don’t really care when it started. My entire point is, which unsurprisingly went over your head, is that bringing up your ‘history’ to other fanbases whose programs have accomplished more than your program in a shorter amount of time is stupid. So then your argument for history basically boils down to “well we’ve been playing longer than you!” Who gives a shit. If anything all you’re doing is highlighting how much your program has underachieved. You’ve been playing far longer and have less hardware to show for it. You’re not a blue blood, sorry to disappoint you.

Or you could be a wannabee jawja nuttlicker, that comes to the Gator board begging for validation, on their monster 2 year history of wins over the Gators, while attempting to ignore their 39 years of irrelevance on the NC level.... :rolleyes:

PS
The leghumpers are so desperate to pad their win total that they always want to count their meeting-win over a UF 'intramural' squad, before UF even 'officially' had a football team... :confused:

No real Dawg fan cares about that mess but we do care about that stomping we about to give the Gators in November
 
Thanks! It could be worse, I could be an FSU fan
Because then you’d know what it’s like to win national titles? Even if we suck for the remainder of my lifetime I’ll have experienced my team as the champs three times while you’ll have spent your life watching every team from neighboring states win one.

One title. They try to claim 1942, but Ohio State was the AP champ, and there was no UPI poll then. Nobody outside of Athens acknowledges a claimed national title based on Billingsley and Litkenhous.

As much as you brag about an almost national title in 2017 and an almost SEC title last season, FSU fans can brag about 3 titles and finishing no worse than 3rd nationally for 14 consecutive seasons. They did have some decent runs shortly before and after Rapeis Winston was on campus.

Honestly it was painful bringing that up. You Georgia fans also can't handle how at least half of the Gator fans on this board see FSU as a more hated rival than Georgia.

People who talk all the time about the past usually suck in the now . Is that your problem ?

Why would any Dawg fan gaf who you think your biggest rival is ? LMAO all I care about is what's gonna happen this November
 
Accomplishments all happened in the past. It's not surprising that's an area you want to avoid discussing.
They sure don't like discussing this...
