Georgia Fans Deliriously Happy that Cutcliffe is Leaving Vols for Duke

David Cutcliffe to Duke is good news for the Blue Devils and bad news for the Vols. Cutcliffe's arrival coincided with a resurgence in the Vols' formerly stagnant offense. As quarterback coach, he turned the mercurial Erik Ainge into a steady performer and notched his NFL draft hopes up from 'hopeless' to 1st or 2nd round.

So why is it also good news for Georgia fans? Georgia Sports Blog explains:

Phil Fulmer's record vs. Georgia when he doesn't have David Cutcliffe on staff is 2-5. However, Fulmer and Cutcliffe together have produced a staggering record of 9-0 against the Dawgs.

If he should accept the position at Duke, no one will be happier than [defensive coordinator] Willie Martinez. Hell, Willie could've provided a reference for the guy.

Losing to Tennessee this past season likely cost the Dawgs their shot at an SEC title, not to mention a national championship berth. So, uh... congrats, Georgia. And Duke.
