uhhh. ok, i have never heard of him. i googled his wikipedia page and wasnt really impressed other than the fact that he was named assistant head coach by Saban. He is currently with the cowboys but only coaching the D line... i understand that i dont have to know/heard of/ be familiar with who ever Richt hires but i am getting a little nervous about this. Kirby's season is over tonight, i expect that his name will either have UGA DC behind it or he is completely out of the talks. At that point we wait till Saturday night to see if Dallas wins and then get word about this Todd Grantham guy. the NFL has a rule that no other team (NFL team) can not contact another (NFL) coach until the season is over. the rule does not apply to colleges contacting nfl coaches. so maybe we dont have to wait till the dallas season is over to find out about this grantham guy. i do know that the only time he actually held the DC title he was fired, and that was from the Browns. I dont know... i say on here that im happy with how secretive the coaching search has been and yet i jump on any rumor i hear and start critiquing the name right away. i suspect that we will have our man, KIRBY, this weekend and all will be well in the heart of the DAWG nation. i'm starting to have to convince myself this...
As for Richt.. who he hires has a lot to do with how he will go into next season in the minds of the fans. Van Gorder was really a no name and he worked out pretty damn good so richt is really batting .500 while hiring people that are not "proven" in the minds of the fans. Can you imagine how excited we will be with a name like SMART vs. how nervous we will be with a guy named... hold on... yea, Grantham?
