October 14, 200718 yr UGA Coach Mark Richt showed an enoumous amount of class just now at the end of the UGA/Vandy game in Nashville. UGA won on a last second FG, some of their players started "dancing on the Star" (Vandy's emblem) at the middle of the field. Richt ran out to mid field, physiacally pulled his players off - ripping their butt the whole way off the field. When ask by the ESPN reporter about it shortly afterwards Richt stated... "that is not what we are about here, not at all. We did that once in 2002 and I thought that I had made it plain then. We do not do that at UGA, are not about that and I sincerly apologize to Vandy for it." That may not have been exact but it was very, very close. I would hate to be those players this coming week. :thumb::thumb::thumb: Kudos to Coach Richt, it is class like this that shows what he is made of and why imo he is one of the top coaches in the country.
October 14, 200718 yr Thats impressive and I'm glad of it. Why would the Bulldogs celebrate like that in a game they "should" have won easily?
October 14, 200718 yr Very classy move :thumb: It shows the disrespect his players have. They have to remember that VANDY :eek: almost beat them!
October 14, 200718 yr Author I really like Coach Richt, and this just shows me a little bit of why I do. :thumb::thumb:
October 14, 200718 yr Very classy move :thumb: It shows the disrespect his players have. They have to remember that VANDY :eek: almost beat them! AND DID last year. Dancing on someones logo is a good way to get yourself hurt.
October 14, 200718 yr Doesn't surprise me from a man that volunteered to make a cameo in "Facing the Giants". A lot of class from the Big Dawg!!!1
October 14, 200718 yr After I saw him do that to his team, he has become one of my favorite coaches. He showed a tremendous amount of class by doing this.
October 14, 200718 yr Author AND DID last year. Dancing on someones logo is a good way to get yourself hurt. I thought that Richt was going to hurt a couple of them.
October 14, 200718 yr Good coach, good win, I really didn't thing Georgia had it in them but guess I was wrong, I have been before and I will be again, but class act by Richt!
October 14, 200718 yr I really like Coach Richt, and this just shows me a little bit of why I do. Coach Richt is a fine Christian man. If you've never seen the movie "Facing the Giants", you need to check it out.
October 14, 200718 yr I thought that Richt was going to hurt a couple of them. I did as well. Good move by the coach...UGA shouldn't be celebrating a win over Vandy. That should be business as usual.
