Georgia coach Mark Richt spoke from his heart when he was asked some tough questions at his weekly news conference Tuesday. But as much as he meant what he said, what he said wasn’t entirely true.
“What we’ve done to this point really doesn’t define us as much as what we do from here on,” Richt said.
The reality is, what the Bulldogs did in October — three mostly embarrassing losses in four games — has and almost certainly will define the 2015 season. And what they do in the last four games is not likely to do much to alter perceptions. Or fates.
Change is coming at Georgia. And we’re not talking about just the quarterback position or the offensive line.
Georgia’s issues at the moment are chiefly with the offense, but it goes beyond that. There is general dysfunction and dissension not only within the team but also within the football staff.
Richt has been issued a directive to fix it, according to several people familiar with the situation. His ability to do that over these final four weeks of the season will determine not only the futures of some of the coaches on his staff, but Richt’s as well.
