Win football games and no AD will care about him being difficult. Look at Bruce Pearl.
Apparently they do.

So recruiting hasn’t gotten better the last 2 years? Have you not seen that the freshman and sophomore have actually been playing better than the upper class guys? Also how many times did Gailey win an orange bowl, or beat UGA? Let’s also not forget how much easier of a schedule Gailey has. I’d take the high years to go along with that bad that we have with CPJ over the average years of Gailey.
No biggie but we will just have to agree to disagree. Glad we all have our own opinions, only bad thing is none of us have proof for our arguments, it’s just our opinions. If we win out would you want to keep CPJ?No. I have not seen anything other than marginal improvement in recruiting. Rankings from 2 years ago were slightly better but a majority of that were the Swillings landing in the lap of CPJ.
No. The strength of our team this year is along the LOS on both sides of the ball which is dominated by upperclassmen.
I’m calling for change because of the last 4 years. Johnson has beaten uga once where Gailey never beat them and that drove me insane
The schedule for Johnson was set up to win 9 regular season games and win the coastal. Our schedule has been very weak this year. Dissatisfied with the results so far.
The last 4 years has seen a high of 9-4 with a bowl win over UK. I need more than that to offset 3-9, 5-6. Anything less than 7 regular season wins this year would be a major disappointment.
No, no such luck. I look at a coach’s full body of work and I look at the circumstances involved in each season. Something I bet our A.D. will evaluate as well.Lol. I love the insults. So cute. I would try a clever rebuttal but don’t have one right off.
Now that it is clear the time frame I’m referring too, I’m sure you see it my way and I can count on you to support change at the head coaching position moving forward. Go jackets.

Well, I do prefer the current state of their program compared to ours. But I will always be a jacket. Regardless of how much our fans annoy me. Go jackets.

ps. No insult intended, I really didn’t understand your meaning from your choice of words.
Yea, sorry we're so annoyingly relentlessly positive and behind our team.
Wow so much fake news.
First, you should follow recruiting closer if you're going to make assessments like that on the Swillings. Fall in our lap they did not.
Second, Johnson has beaten uga twice in the last 4 years. They haven't beat us at home since 2012.
The schedule was set up to win 9 games? LOLOL. We played something like 8 teams who went to a bowl game last year.
"I need..." Don't really care about what you need. Its what the program and players need. I don't mean this to sound rude, but we don't need to spend an ounce of energy trying to please the negative nellies. We've won 4 out of our last 5 games and you're still not just glass half empty, you're going way out of your way to fake news stats - like 'well the glass would be 80% empty if that water were in a bigger glass.' I mean jeez dude.
Looking at GT’s full body of work as a program and maybe we should expect to win like Dodd did in the 60’s. Of course that wouldn’t be an accurate way of looking at it. You have to look at trends. We aren’t trending in the right direction. Johnson can’t hold on to the work he did with Gailey’s players forever. And yes I know 14 was a great year with his players. Unfortunately that looks more like an outlier as we go along.
And yes, I understand GT has challenges that make it difficult for us to compete consistently with the elite of college football. Fortunately for us however, we play in the ACC coastal and there are no elite programs in it.
I learned last year with the "Roof hate" that once certain of our fans have decided they dislike and want to get rid of a coach, it is DONE. So, I doubt many of the fans that have now turned on PJ will change their stripes, no matter the outcomes. I do know this - if our coach has to beat UGA more times than they lose to UGAG, they are in BIG trouble. Kirby-san has increased their talent level 3 fold in only 2 years.
Wow. I really didn’t think this would be so difficult for people to understand but I was obviously wrong. The 4 years that have been below GT’s historical standard are 15,16, 17 & 18. I know 18 isn’t over yet so that is obviously where the confusion is coming in.
Fwiw, the relative performance of our D may have impacted Roof's employment status more than the "Roof hate" of fans.
Last I checked, '18 ain't over yetNo buddy. 15, 16, 17, 18.
I’m sure glad your not my accountant.
Sure would like to know what you disagree with about the stats I posted.I respect your opinion but completely disagree. But that’s ok.
Come on man. I would rather climb into the top 15 and fade late than never be in the 25 at all. The point is the nation had some respect for us and we were on the radar. These last 4 years have been abysmal and easily the worst 4 year stretch over the past 20 years. Why you want to support the coach that has caused this descent is beyond me but I’ve resigned myself to just understand this mentality is a reality to this board.
I guess Woody should look for a pink slip, then. If you look at the statistics, especially 3rd down D, it ain't really much different this year, in fact in some categories, it is worse. But, I would not expect it to be, since our talent is not that much better. ASA has been a God-send, though.
The "Roof-hate" was developed based on the performance of the D, so tomato, tomato. I was not saying that people hated him as a person.
He has a narrative to maintain Facts and reality cannot be allowed to alter that narrative.No, no such luck. I look at a coach’s full body of work and I look at the circumstances involved in each season. Something I bet our A.D. will evaluate as well.

Who cares? We went 7-6 in 2007. Why does it matter if the polls overrated us at some point? The polls suck. Chan Gailey had us ranked 0 times at the end of the season. Even if we do CPJ haters favorite move and remove 2008 and 2009, CPJ has more years with end of season top 25 than Gailey did (1, but 3 with 09 and 08). 2006 was almost a great year, but the vaunted pro style offense scored 6 points against Wake Forest with Calvin Johnson on the roster.
If people want to long for the Oleary era where we had flunkgate and were paying a staff near the top of the NCAA, then I can at least understand since the team was good. But anyone who looks back at the Gailey era fondly has lost their mind.
