I don’t get all the love for Jep he’s a career .500 coach with a couple of good seasons, he’s not stayed anywhere long enough to know if he can sustain success at a program. He’s had some good years but he’s also had some bad ones and again he’s never stayed anywhere long enough to know if he can build and sustain a program. Be curious to see where Whitley goes now.

I couldn’t have said better myself. It’s not hard to win in Georgia when you take over a program that is full of D1 recruits and has been built by a coach that went on to coach college. Once that group was gone he started loosing which brought him back to Kentucky. Whitley was only a stepping stone for him and we all knew that coming in. As for the team last year they did deserve to be there. We had a great group of boys that worked their tails off to prove everyone wrong. But I will tell you right now being on the inside of that team I can tell you once again that was not Jep Irwin. Those wins and that team was thanks to Jodie Mouser and Wayne Mills hints why this season was what it was. I think everyone is going to be surprised to see what kind of Coach that he really is. South may not have gotten the wins they wanted with Burdine but at least he cared about he boys and the program. Good luck South better you then us....
