Be Careful What You Wish For...

...you just might get it.

By now we all have heard the news that Todd Grantham has taken the DC position up at Louisville for motorcycle boy Bobby Petrino. This is what gives me pause: we have just witnessed an unprecedented deal for a coordinator in college football. Five years? Million per? Obviously, Petrino and company really wanted to make this happen. 

Naturally, part of that was being able to simply lure him away from what is generally considered a top-notch job, not to mention the fact that Grantham's contract was up for renewal next year. But again - five years?

Some of you may know that I was somewhat in the minority in the Dawgosphere for thinking that UGA had made the right decision to stick with Grantham for one more year. We had some young guys and we saw some growing pains. I felt like the D had made some improvements over the year, and had not, as many have said, shown no improvement from game 1 to game 13. But I get where folks are coming from...

I don't know...What I do know is that we've got to get it together and hire a really good coordinator (not to mention secondary and possibly D-line coaches) and we've got to do it quick. Signing day is barrelin' down on us.
