Is this it for Mark Richt?

And before that, there was Meyer. Not trying to make excuses for him, but he has had to coach against some of the best ever.

 

He's statistically one of the best coaches in SEC history. That's more than a decent run. It just is.

 

It didn't stop Tuberville, Miles, Meyer, Chizzik, or Malzahn.

 

Good; you take Richt with his high SEC winning percentage and I will take Meyer with his Championships.

 

Did I say I'd take Richt? Jesus. YOU SAID HE ACCOMPLISHED NOTHING. How many different ways can I put it.

 

Didn't stop them from what?

 

Save Turbeville, national titles.

 

Malzahn hasn't won one.

 

You are wrong on two of five, congrats.

 

Saban did not stop them from winning a Championship; as Indy alluded was Richts problem.

 

Are you daft; you know the SEC has a Championship don't you?

 

He did. He was coach of Chiziks team. He also went to another title game.

 

Dynasty

 

Ok well yeah we all know that but come on.

 

As i said in my follow up post, Meyer is pretty much on the same level as Saban at this point. Richt had to deal with both in their prime.

I'm not sure I understand your list though.

Tuberville has 1 SEC championship. Richt has 2. The point of my post was to point out that winning national championships is hard when arguably the best college coach of all time coaches in the opposite division. Even moreso when a coach who still has the potential to be the best coach of all time coached in the same division for a number of years.

Miles is certainly a great coach. I would put him above Richt, no doubt. He would probably have more than one national title if he didn't coach in the same division as Saban.

Chizzik? Seriously? Cam Newton and Malzahn won that title.

And then Malzahn did beat Saban as a head coach... i think it was already mentioned how much of a freak occurrence that was. The endings to the UGA and Bama games were some other world shit. And in the end, no national title. Still, Malzahn did win one as an OC, so credit where it's due.

So, essentially, your reply is that Malzahn and Miles did it, so Richt should have been able to as well? I'm perfectly fine with saying Miles is a better coach than Richt. The Malzahn part is tough though.

 

Don't forget about all those SEC wins against Arkansas State, Vanderbilt, Kentucky, Houston, Northwestern State, New Mexico State, Middle Tennessee, UAB, Georgia Southern, Marshall, La-Monroe, etc.

 

The Chizik title can't count for him and Malzahn. I'm more than happy to give it to Malzahn, but that eliminates Chizik from the list.

 

What are you talking about?

 

Stop. Richt was around for a pathetic East. His titles were while Fulmer was bumbling around being a clown and UF had Zook. Otherwise, he doesn't win ****. The 2001 season was a gift from Fulmer.

 

You were giving Richt a pass because of Saban being in the League. Only 1 of Richts 2 Championships was won with Saban in the League (2002 - Saban at LSU). The Coaches I listed have won championships with Saban being in the League and all but Tubervile, while Saban is at Bama.

I am not talking National Championships. Sure winning 1 is hard. Dam near impossible if you can't win your Conference Championship; which Richt has not done in 10 years.
