Open letter to GA Athletic Director Greg McGarity concerning firing of Mark Richt!!!!

Mark Richt appeared in the movie “Facing the Giants”

November 30, 2015
Greg McGarity, Athletic Director, University of Georgia
Dear Mr McGarity,
I know that you are in a tough position now since you are trying to get a football coach that can win more than all the other coaches in the country currently. Personally I think you have set the bar too high. You had a coach that is #5 on the list of coaches with the best winning % now but that was not good enough for you.
I remember when LSU went around and collected millions to buy out Les and then the leadership of the university discovered how many Tiger fans loved Les because of his 110 wins in a 11 year period!!! Then the administration backed off.

Let’s look at some of facts you had to examine.

Richt’s dismissal represented a rarity in that he was let go less than 24 hours after completing a 9-3 season. It also came after winning 49 games in the last five years (9.8 per season), after winning a higher percentage of games (.740) than any coach in modern school history, while sitting fifth in the nation among winningest active coaches and while being one of only four men in NCAA Division I history to record 135 or more wins in his first 14 seasons.
Let me put another fact out there. In January of 2013 Bama beat Nortre Dame 42-14 FOR THE NATIONAL TITLE and just one game earlier that same season Georgia had a first down at the Bama 10 Yard Line with time running out and barely missed an opportunity to represent the SEC in that national title game. IN OTHER WORDS, YOU HAD A COACH THAT WAS COACHING AT A VERY HIGH LEVEL!!! Why did you fire him?
I just wonder why the upper tier of the SEC coaches are getting fired?
Let’s go back to LSU again. They went 13-1 and beat Bama earlier in that same year on the road but lost to Bama in national title game.
Let’s add Auburn to mix. Their coach wins national title with Cam Newton and then is fired a couple of years later.
What is Sabin to make of this?  His toughest competition: GA, AUB and LSU all attempt to fire their coaches because their teams are not good enough!!!
Ironic!!!! It’s the world turned upside down. That is not mentioning the fact that Tommy T actually had a winning record over Bama!!!
Thanks for your time and I wish Georgia continued success in the future but only at a lower level. Maybe you can drop from 74% to 72% since Vince Dooley won at that rate and he was able to remain the head coach for 25 years and by the way he was the best speaker we ever had the Little Rock Touchdown Club!!!!
