The Heat is on, UGA's Coach Mark Richt, that is

Mark Richt was either on the coaching hot seat or could find himself there now. His boss at the time made an attempt to shoot down any such talk.

"Mark has been here, what, 10 years, nine years. He's had a great track record here," then-Georgia athletic director Damon Evans said in early June. "I think when they see a little adversity, people want to just jump on it and attack it. There is no need for that, because he's not on a hot seat. Mark is in a good place with us, and I'm glad he's here."

Now, Richt finds himself with a new boss following Evans' DUI arrest and subsequent "resignation". A total of eight players have been arrested on a variety of charges since March. His star wide receiver was slapped with a four-game suspension for selling a game-worn jersey to a person the NCAA considers to be an agent.
If the situation could get worse, it did, the home Bulldogs downed the road Bulldogs Saturday night for the first time since 1974. Mississippi State embarrassed Georgia 24-12 in a win that is huge for Dan Mullen's football program.
The University of Georgia is 0-3 in the SEC. Richt had never been 0-2 in the conference in his previous nine seasons.
So, now the question is, how much of a hot seat, Richt is in, not when it will occur.
