Well, ain't gonna happen, but a point that always puzzles me: why would you hire a guy who just got fired someplace else? (And I guess you are assuming Kelly is going to be fired.)

As Richard Pryor was known to say in another context, who are you gonna believe? Me or your lying eyes?

I'm not sure what his refers to as I don't follow GT in the AJC very much, but off the cuff I would think that a journalist being "ouside the circle" is a good thing, not bad. The craft doesn't need incest between writers and coaches, or politicians and reporters. It's the kind of thing that has...

What did I miss? Other than a usual laconic quip about just not covering them?

Good points, all. But sometimes you get the 95-yarder, too, besides which the game is just more fun when it is on the grass and not analytics. There is this thing about won-lost records, I know, but I am always for the team trying to win and not trying not to lose.

It's why you shouldn't assume any game of any sport is over at any time until the rules say it's over. Right now Chicago is down 3-1 in the WS and I promise you Cleveland doesn't think it's over. (And as an unrelated aside, I wonder if Georgia is having second thoughts about Richt? Yeah, I...

Assuming it is a reasonable depth -- five yards or less? -- then it's worth the risk of five yards to bring it out and head north. You should have enough faith in your offense to negate that.

Okay, I am just picking at you. But ...

Johnson on his best days seems unhappy. But his comments about the defense after the game were severe even by his standards.

It seemed to me the first time since the '15 Orange Bowl that Thomas resembled that QB. That is expecting too much of him game in and game out, but that QB did seem to disappear for most of two seasons.

Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and a rocker to be named later. And yes, except nobody ever beats them.

Four words: November 2014.

It's too bad that because we got outplayed and outcoached we lost to Duke again today. Otherwise we might be 5-3 and near bowl eligibility again, and not had the chance to show the offense can in fact sling it around some. Makes me feel bad that us being so bad makes so many on the board feel...

Not very glamorous in the scheme of things -- and picking one out of, what, tens of thousands, is like buying out the store for a Cracker Jack prize, but how about that late field goal by a freshman to beat Baylor in the 1951 Orange Bowl, starting a then-record string of six straight bowl wins...

Well, I will get this right. Maybe. My observation was more in the line of Johnson's point that the most popular player on the team is always the backup QB. As fans we tend to think that the QB who got away, stolen from under us by Podunk U, is the one who could run this offense. And there is no...

Seems to me that the QBs we lose in recruiting are always the ones who could have been great at GT. Fact is we don't have a clue. Not one. It is a unique offense requiring a unique skill -- or at least I think it is -- and it doesn't involve running or throwing the ball. it is decision making...

I've always thought our decline began with the departure of Monken.
