Richt's gone

[Declinometer]

oh hell.....

 

[Cam]

If he goes to Miami, my prophecy will be complete.

 

[BuzzStone]

Damn that is bad. They have a shot at actually doing something with talent now.

 

[Milwaukee]

Thank God

 

[Jay Alexander]

Wow

 

[kg01]

Fulmer all over again I hope.

ETA: Still we gotta dance on his grave just for turmoil's sake.

 

[awbuzz]

Truely surprised.

Hoping they go through the UT scenario, choose the one you want, and hope they crap the bed in recruiting and on the field for years to come.

 

[B Lifsey]

Wow indeed...

 

[Sean311]

Will be interesting to see who they get. Also I wonder if Eason jumps ship.

 

[GTHomer]

Wow, someone who compiled a 145-51 over 15 years, with a chance for his 10th 10+ win season gets fired. Our culture has really changed...

Who's reporting it? Nary a word on the ajc

check ajc guys' twitters. I can't remember the guys name but I've seen it reported there. Official stories are probably in the works right now.

ESPN's Mark Slackback reported it 1st I think.

ESPN cover page reporting ("per a family source").

We played five teams this year that are such troubled programs that they fired (or otherwise replaced) their head coach.

Tulane, Virginia, Miami, Virginia Tech, Georgia

We went 1-4 against them.

ESPN has a link up now.

Saw it only Bleacher Report, citing a family source

I'm sorry but look at his record. Then compare it to every single active coach in the country. There are probably 5, at most, who are inarguably better than Richt in terms of results. I count Saban, Miles, Meyer. Dude loses the best running back in college football and still wins 9.

Right fired was the best thing that could happen to us this season.

 

[BigDaddyBuzz]

This helps GT. Let's be honest, Richt has owned us. I see them taking a step back like UT. I can tell you Richt is one of the best recruiters and this will hurt the dawgs. You can kiss the #1 QB goodbye too. If they do go with Kirby Smart, CPJ will be licking his chops.

Go Jackets! Can't wait until 2016

I had a chilling thought. What if this is what the Spurrier/SC resignation was really about?
