You mean the guy who coached Nick Fairley? Who Georgia fans think is dirty? You mean he was actually coached well???

Go away and let us enjoy this hire in peace.

Hopefully the first thing Rocker does (after putting on a Georgia polo) is travel to Auburn and kick Garner in the nuts.

Rocker was a upgrade over Dunn, but AU always wanted Garner to return to AU. Rocker always could motivate his players, but some questioned the fundamentals of his players, it followed him to the Titans.

Oh don't get me wrong. I think Garner is a good coach. Regardless, I still want Rocker to kick him in the nuts.

Everyone but Auburn fans knew he was dirty. Doesn't mean he wasn't an outstanding player. Love the Rocker hire.

That is what was most infuriating about Fairley, IMO. He didn't have to play dirty to have the impact that he did.

Love the Rocker hire, been sitting on pins and needles waiting on it to become official. I was so worried something was going to fall through. FANTASTIC hire by Richt.

Will be quite funny when uga lineman are supplexing dudes in the next few seasons and such tactics will no longer be "dirty"

Congrats on hiring an AU man.

UGA isn't messing around. They just got rid of their entire defensive staff and willing to fork out the money for big names :) Can't wait until next season.

Rocker was not an upgrade over Dunn....
Not taking anything away from TR.

So what is the story on the Titans D-line performance last year? Love the hire because CTR is a successful dline coach in college.
