He's still Coach Dawg. 0-2 against UGA, incredibly inconsistent performances and obviously is learning how to keep a team focused for a bowl game.
I don't buy the Urban and Zoooker had a better situation argument. We had plenty of talent (record number getting drafted this weekend) the issue was an unbalanced roster. He has done well in recruiting, I am not a big rankings guy, so I don't say he has done great because we still haven't been able to, land a game breaker WR.
