It is a great train wreck to watch. It just keeps getting better and better.

But these are teams who have won championships, or in ND's played for a natty one recently. Coots have NEVER been in the category. Best for them is the credit card bowl and getting blown out by Auburn in Atlanta.
So I humbly submit, the coots didn't have as far to fall as these more elite programs have.

Got to accomplish SOMETHING before you "fall". They have nothing to fall from.

Given Georgia's in state talent level and where they were,

they have fallen off a cliff. The state of Georgia is like fifth in the country in the number of division I football players produced per year per state. The SEC EAst is just sooooo bad that somebody has to win the game.

some candidates: Texas, Auburn, ND

they haven't fallen quite as far as the Chickens have, but they were WAY above them too (playing for/winning National Championships, major bowl games, etc) just a few years ago.

The difference with Texas and Auburn is that they have young talent; four-five star players that haven't matured and/or have little game experience. USC doesn't even have the talent....it's just not there.

Fall or Resettle at the Bottom?

To put it in perspective, unless you were paying very close attention to who the maid of honor in the SEC east was for about 4 years, you would never have known them to be anything than slightly less than mediocre.

Exactly. That grease fire of a program is basically a trash do-nothing inbred "family" that lives off the dole & they won the lottery there for a couple years, blew all their money to try and dress up the trash pile they wallow around in on the reg and convince people they were coming up in the world. Their program is garbage - has always been and will always be. Just because they put it in a scented glad bag of a has-been coach doesn't mean they're not still trash. Plenty of programs have fallen further because they never rose to any heights.

Its easy to fall quickly when the rise was a fluke anyway

The "success" was but a tiny blimp in an otherwise miserable history. Keep in mind this is a program that is barely .500 across a span of 130 years of playing the sport.
