He gave up 360 yards per game his last year here, can you show me a worse UGA defense?
Here's another point of comparison. This year in Mel's first year, we gave up 30 points twice this year. In Pruitt's 2 years here he gave up 30 points 8 times. In Willie martinez's 5 years here he allowed 30 points 16 times. In Brian VanGorder's 4 years here he allowed 30 points one single time.
In Grantham's 4 years here, he allowed 30 points 21 times. Under richt the other "worst" DC we had was willie martinez, who surrendered 30 16 times in 5 years...in one less year grantham managed to tack on 5 more times. His final season (the really bad one) we gave up 30 points EIGHT times! If you're giving up 30 points in 3/4 of your games, you're gonna have a bad time.

So Grantham's last season at UGA in which ya'll lost 12 players who had started off the 2012 defense (number 5 in the nation mind you) he gave up a ton more yards? Holee shite, I would've never known that was possible.
Not only that, most of the teams that ya'll gave up yards to were very good teams. The only one that wasn't? Vandy. In which you lost 31-27. Want to know why? Your offense was miserable. 221 total yards and 3 turnovers. I'll even throw in the Missouri loss for shits and giggles. You lost 41-26. Your offense had a ton of yards and moved the ball but had 4 turnovers in the loss. In any other games ya'll lost or had gave up a ton of points, it was against teams that no one could slow down all year.
So basically, your biggest criticism against him is that a team with very young, inexperienced players didn't play well against extremely talented, experienced offenses. And it seems your offense tended to have a ton of turnovers resulting in the loss of some of those games. But he's terrible.
