JACKSONVILLE – Georgia offensive coordinator Mike Bobo was not in the mood to discuss a report earlier this week that had him discussing the head-coaching vacancy at Georgia Southern.
“I would rather not comment on it,” Bobo said minutes after the 24-19 loss to Nebraska in the Gator Bowl.
Bobo did, however, admit that he becoming a head coach is a personal goal. The former Bulldogs quarterback is the only assistant who has been with head coach Mark Richt for all 13 seasons.
“I aspire to be a head coach one day, and where I don’t know,” he said. “I also aspire to win a championship here at the University of Georgia. We’ve been close so many times, and I do feel like the ingredients are there. I do feel like Mark Richt is one of the best head coaches in the country, and I do feel like we are able to get players who can make plays.
“There are just some little things we need to improve on, and it’s hard to win any game, much less a championship. We’ve just got to keep knocking on the door.”
