I think that's the path they take. Smart will be kinda busy to recruit and coach UGA in the bowl so Richt stays on.

Agree.....I won't be happy till its official

Does anyone know if press conf has been scheduled?

A freshman as the best PG we've had since Young? To be a good ACC PG, it usually takes a phenom and/or a couple of years of hard work. I only watched the one game and Robinson has potential but he will be challenged in ACC play. Have to say I expected more out of Wilson. You gotta get much better every summer. Handle, shot, etc. Wake me when any of our ball handlers shows work ethic above and beyond. Because of our coaching and player turnover I feel like none of these kids have shown continuous growth.

Then getting all over the leading scorer?

Come on man. Every team needs guys to step up and score.

If you want your leading scorer to play with a better percentage you gotta show who is gonna take his points and how is he gonna get them.

I like the ball movement the team has but I think the shorter shot clock is hurting them. They all probably realize they have to find a more "succinct" offense. They get this going I think Allen will have to score less pass more. Especially in ACC play as we don't have many scorers and the ones who are good are gonna face really good defenders. Wilson and Robinson are going to have to run the offense while penetrating and scoring more. These guys are both a little shy about tossing up the rock and/or penetrating.

We seem to have plenty of time when Allen is not in the game ... if our offense (and defense) is more effective without him, it should be apparent to our statisticians. Until then, Allen to me is the only guy besides LeDay with the balls to put up points by putting up shots that aren't great shots. Yes I'm all for better shots, better offensive systems, having other guys be more aggressive, but until that happens, you got what you got and all you can do is coach it up. Allen can play... yes his D seems to be very poor... his running the O / shot selection leaves something to be desired. He's gonna get better... in the interim, who else gonna put the points on the board?

After the game he had he can drink all the UVa tears from the Cup.

Good analysis, though I think you could add rebounding to the "Good" section - we were horrible on the boards last year, but are more than holding our own so far this year. Outside of the second half against VMI, you could also add 3 point shooting to the "Bad" section.

I also don't see a need to discount the UAB win by saying "it wasn't against a Power 5 team". In D-1 basketball where there are something like 340 teams and growing, there are plenty of good non Power 5 teams. UAB is a team that won 2 games in the NCAA tourney last year, and I believe had a fair number of starters back. I was pleased as heck to win that one yesterday.

Richt is coaching UGA bowl game, he isn't getting hired by a P5 top school then.

I'm really hoping that Shane steps up the recruiting and switches to ST because it would be great to continue the Beamer legacy. If not, I feel like Fuente, being the new guy in town, is going to be way too afraid to fire him due to the "Beamer" namesake if circumstances are less than ideal.

Sh!t you're right. Golf clap, good chum.

Or maybe VT simply isn't as easy to recruit to as folks want to believe and he's been dealt mostly injuries or no talent at RB since David Wilson left...early?

Agree about the out of control pace... The team definitely needs to learn when to hit the gas and attack vs when to sit back and play with deliberation.

Unfortunately Allen seemed like a big culprit of the out of control pacing despite being a rJR. Plus he seems to be playing 1v5 sometimes, driving to the basket and taking bad shots instead of passing to an open teammate. He has shown some flashes of meshing with his teammates, but he's got to make that the norm instead of the exception by the time we get to league play.

Fucking insanity Georgia.

Is this year one of the worst for coaches to retire/get fired or does it just seem that way because our coach is leaving?
