People of the Program
“PEOPLE OF THE PROGRAM – Big Cat Candid:” UGA Legend Jonas Jennings and Program Insider Han Vance Rap about Georgia Football and Their Time Spent Attending UGA in the 1990s. Jonas Jennings:“Booger McFarland was right on my head. We were in slide protection, one play to win or lose the game on the road at […]
Returneth
A la Mettenberger, I’m bound for the Classic City. Early morning Megabus double-decker from ATL to downtown ATHENS, GA, I’ll be… Little early still, so, today I’m looking at the huge influence of our school’s attendees. You’ve got little ol’ me plus many other more (currently) prominent media types. Famous folks, even, like Michael Stipe […]
Ah, the Prolonged Misery of J-ville
In J-ville, Georgia played with the most heart I’ve seen from us in years in the fourth quarter and came up just short, as Aaron Murray’s fourth turnover of the day (third interception) was picked in overtime and the Gators kicked the three. We have won three total games versus them in what feels like […]
Can UGA Vanquish Growing Pains?
GEORGIA can do a whole lot to begin to vanquish this season’s growing pains by pulling out a victory at Colorado Saturday night. We won’t recover from 0-3 in the SEC this weekend, nor this season, but we need – desperately need – to win a football game for the future of our not so […]
Homecoming for AD McGarity
Athens-native, UGA alum, and University of Florida Assistant Athletic Director, Greg McGarity will be named the new University of Georgia Athletic Director Friday. The era of leadership as former player Damon Evans supplanted legendary coach Vince Dooley was briefer than expected, but basically solid. Until the end, when Evans was ousted for DUI, he was […]
What if UGA Struggles Again?
If we drop more than three games next season, I expect a full onslaught of angry Dawgs to storm the office of Damon Evans and call for Richt’s head. Damon would stand by Coach, but that is a highly-realistic expectation, when you consider our history. New starting quarterbacks coupled with new defensive alignments have rarely […]
With Mettenberger Gone, Quarterbacks Must Step Up
Curious that Aaron Murray did not play in the first half of the G-Day Game, I had to ask myself: Is he already the season opener starter for the University of Georgia Bulldogs? That question was a presumed yes for many fans anyway, with Zach Mettenberger facing at least a one game suspension for arrest […]
DAWGS ‘Tween The Hedges Seeking 11+ Wins
DEAR DAWGS: It is time to stand up as a program and claim our destiny. Nothing less than ten wins per year from now on – and eleven wins is really the new ten when you consider the extended length of the college season. GEORGIA is a good program, that wants desperately to be great. […]
Let’s Get Back to Football
Spring means flowers and showers and March Madness for some …. For us, spring means FOOTBALL. G-Day Game is April 10th at 2pm, and until then, it’s time to get back to football practice for the returning UGA players. We had one crisp practice and then a spring break and now the young men are […]
Unbelievable FACT: UGA Playing for Two-Out-of-Three SEC TITLES
And it’s halftime in NashVEGAS. I’m in The ATL full and happy. Had the best fried chicken in the city at Wisteria and three mini desserts. The starter had been a crab bisque and some hand-crafted cocktails…and then the DAWG-Hog Rodeo was on. We had a nice little lead. That Rotnie dude is the all-time […]
