Prominent UM trustee speaks out against Richt’s approach

So what do UM Board of Trustee members think of what’s going on with the football program?

Conversations with two highly-respected ones – both prominent members of the community – revealed that among the trustees, the level of frustration with Mark Richt hasn’t nearly reached the level of past dissatisfaction with Al Golden.

So trustees are not going to push for a coaching change, which would not happen at this point even if they collectively wanted one.

But while many trustees still hold Richt in high regard, there is frustration with his offense and his play-calling and athletic director Blake James is expected to be asked by at least one of them to intervene, one of the long-time trustees said.
