UGA Hot Seat: Mark Richt vs. Ray Goff

Check out my most recent submission over at ChuckOliver.net regarding Mark Richt's hot seat status and a comparison of Richt to Goff.

  1. You are strecthing it here Fratlock. Richt was clearly better than Goff. I don't think there should be any comparision to those two coaches.

  2. It wasn't an argument, just putting the information out there. If one were to put a gun to my head and make me argue one way or another, I'd argue that Richt has been better than Goff over the last 4 years, significantly.

    However, given the bad things people say about Goff and how he is pretty much the opposite of what fans want out of any coach EVER at UGA, I was expecting some of the numbers and results to be far more divergent.

    But the fact is that, over their respective last 4 years, they've struggled against the same division rivals. They've also had similar success against Auburn and Tech. And, over the same period of time, each coach has the same amount of losses. You can qualify or parse that anyway you want, but it surprised me to see even a couple of similarities.

    Again, it wasn't an argument. But if I'm going to compare Richt to Donnan, I might as well start with Goff.
