Todd Grantham Total Defense at UGA & Louisville
2010 - UGA 23rd
2011 - UGA 3rd
2012 - UGA 27th
2013 - UGA 45th
2014 - Louisville 6th
2015 - Louisville 18th
2016 - Louisville 14th
I find it amusing that we are critiquing those numbers from Grantham when we finished 110th in total defense this year

Land him or not, Mullen has made the move to the 3-4.
Personally, I think we have a shot at landing him.
Whistleblower exposes: (FISA), Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, 156 other judges, members of Congress, and Donald J. Trump were targeted by the HAMMER.

Why do you think we have a shot? Other than you usual positive sunshine pumping..

UGA people couldn't wait to get rid of Richt, Bobo, Grantham, Willie Martinez, Schottenheimer, and on and on and on....

Though it's probably a pipe dream...I do wish we'd be willing to step up and pay a proven, top-notch DC the $ to come. If we had to pay $500,00 - $600,000 more per year than we do, it seems to me we could make a lot of that back if it allowed us to take the next step up and actually compete for the SEC more than once-a-decade...and actually make more prominent bowls with their higher payouts.

Well then this is the one year he should have gotten IN the way.

Shit, we would have won 7 games at least.

My thoughts exactly. I can't count how many posts I saw that said "if we just had a middle of the pack defense" or "if our defense was just average" and then how many more games we could've won. And I agree. Probably at least a couple more with just a #50 type defense.

If we want to compete with LSU and Bama we have to make this type of hire.

He picked the wrong one to get out of the way of then...we can be so bassackwards...
Same with the continuity narrative for keeping Sirmon. If you want continuity you don't do it with the worst DC. Not saying you were saying, just generally speaking about the narrative out of Starksville.

His brother also coaches at Louisville. Todd is DC and LB coach, Tony is the inside backer and special teams coach. If it's a package deal it would pretty well kill most of our birds with one stone.
Find a safety and QB coach and call it a wrap.

Ain't that the truth. If we wanna be a big boy, we have to act like a big boy.

Anybody who don't believe Grantham would be a huge hire is insane.

Did Grantham ever have anything to do with Rivers or Abram at UGA?
