Good.He was there from 2009 to 2012 and their best record was 7-6.
Probably someone who's an ace recruiter, as the word is that UGA is going after Tosh Lupoi, our current Defensive Coordinator, to fill another vacancy due to his recruiting prowess.Good grief...who leaves Athens for Knoxville?
I mean was his seat hot and he's just getting out before he's pushed out or what?
Who's on Kirby's shortlist?

I now know how y'all feel when Saban offers guys right after Stoops does. Kirby has been going after our coaches and offering kids after they commit to us, and it's really freaking annoying. Heck, we lost Tyler Simmons to UGA after Kirby took the UGA job because he took a photo of our recruiting board to show where he was on our board in relation to UGA's so they could land him. He might be panicking because Chaney is best pals with the UGA OL Coach, Sam Pittman, who is an ace recruiter and excellent OL coach. Word is that they are joined at the hip, and Pittman has signed about half a dozen 5-star OL in the last 2+ years.
I'm surprised that he took a photo of the Bama staff's recruiting board, not that UGA was recruiting Tyler Simmons. I had forgotten about that until a few weeks back when Jimbo called out Kirby and the UGA staff. He basically said that they were full of sh*t for lying to a A&M QB commit, but who knows what goes on behind closed doors.Chaney and Pittman have coached together 3 years over their 30+ years of coaching. Hardly joined at the hip. But they are friends. Tosh's name has been thrown around, but he isn't the guy. Another former Bama coach has been mentioned, Derrick Ansley. Not sure why it would surprise you we offered Simmons, we recruit about 200 of the same guys every year.
They have coached together at Tennessee, Arkansas, and Georgia.. He is not thought to be an option to join Chaney in Knoxville though.Chaney and Pittman have coached together 3 years over their 30+ years of coaching. Hardly joined at the hip. But they are friends.

I guess that would depend on who you believe wouldn't you think. Jimbo tried to hire James Coley as OC as was turned down, so he wouldn't have an axe to grind. As for Siimmons the ex UGA staff wasn't recruiting him, the new one was. Nick and Bama don't say nice try guys when a kid commits to another school do they? You know as well as anyone SEC recruiting is cutthroat,
I don't really have any idea who our DC will be, Ansley is being considered for the Troy job, but I think he is the top guy and Kirby is looking for an AA for the slot.
Good.
I’m glad UK won that game. But offensively, it gave me a sense of what it must’ve been like to watch the Monitor vs the Merrimack.To expound, he was at UT when Kentucky beat them with a WR. That year, UT averaged 11.5 ppg in SEC play and failed to score over 10 points in 5 of 8 SEC games.
doesn't make it any less unethical and sleazy on Smarts part to claim that everyone does it
Pittman isn't going anywhere (thank God).Probably someone who's an ace recruiter, as the word is that UGA is going after Tosh Lupoi, our current Defensive Coordinator, to fill another vacancy due to his recruiting prowess.

Wasn’t Ansley on staff at UK? Stoops had made him co-DC when Saban hired him away... or something like that? Sorry not firing on all cylinders, sat up way past my bedtime to watch that mess last night.
The worst part of this is the assistant coach salary arms race. With this escalation, it's only a matter of time before someone offers obscene money to one of our key assistants
Understand too Chaney is a journeyman assistant coach, career assistant, not one of the big name gotta have up and comers. But, he's paving the way for better assistants to make a lot more money.I am not 100% on this but hearing UT offered Chaney 1.7m, to come, he asked Kirby to match it and he didn't.

How do you feel about this overall?
Michigan already did offer obscene money to Vince Marrow but he stayed.The worst part of this is the assistant coach salary arms race. With this escalation, it's only a matter of time before someone offers obscene money to one of our key assistants

What mess ? Start watching late Feb or use dvr. and watch if it sounds like it's not going to upset you . works great.Wasn’t Ansley on staff at UK?

$$$$$$$$$$Why would Chaney leave UGA for UT? I understand the Pruitt connection, but why leave a recruiting machine like UGA that expects to contend next year for a ship that may never leave dock? Obviously, Pruitt thinks he is hiring a top OC. The OC at UGA gets credit for the offense at UGA. It’s not like getting out from the shadow of a Petrino or a Brohm. So, what is the issue at UGA?
$$$$$$$$$$
Obviously not the 1.7 mil that has been reported that he's getting from Tenn.He was making about $900k at UGA in a contract that, I think, ended this year. What was UGA willing to pay?

Well considering he left, it obviously wasn't close enough to the 1.7 mil for him.Well, I am not sure it is obvious, but let’s say it is true. What was UGA offering? Because, I would think most people would take less $$$ to stay at UGA than go to UT.
Well considering he left, it obviously wasn't close enough to the 1.7 mil for him.
But is more likely true.That is an assumption that could very easily be false.
