Get Paid

It's midweek already and I have been slacking on the blizzog. Maybe because we played Tenn Tech and they looked about as good as we did against Florida?

I was happy to see us play well though. We needed solid play before the Auburn game and that's what we got.

We did have a penalty fiesta though - is it that hard to know the snap count? CMR benched the players that committed penalties - I liked that, but it seemed as if the players enjoyed it. You would think that by being benched it would have cut back on the yellow flags...not these Dawgs, they tallied 11. That just isn't going to get it done on Saturday against Auburn.

This was posted in the USA today, yesterday. The link is information about what head coaches are getting paid, bonuses, etc. It also has the info on the assistant coaches.

What's all the talk about Stripling changing his college to Tech? I heard Tech offered him last week? Do you see him changing?

PS. These coaches make way too much money these days...

jthomas -

Tech did offer Stripling last week. I really don't know what he will do? I know he appreciates that UGA offered early. I know countless times he has said he is happy to be a Dawg. I know he has tried to help recruit for Georgia by talking to Mack Brown, Alec Ogletree (before he committed), etc. He is the only one that knows what his decision might be...
Funny you asked about this today becuase the AJC had this article today about the situation.
