The Ray Goff era wasn’t the best of the history of Georgia football, but it did produce many great players.

In last weeks weekly top 10: The greatest coaches in Georgia football history, I was hard on Ray Goff. While his time as head coach didn’t produce many wins, it’s still an important era, especially on offense.

During his time as head coach, Goff modernized Georgia’s offense. While other coaches around the nation went to a greater extent, Goff opened up the passing game in Athens while still maintaining strong rushing attacks.

From 1989-to-1995, Georgia football not only had one of the greatest running backs in school history, but they also had the best passing quarterback in recent memory and great receivers became a necessity in recruiting.

Because of Georgia’s offense going through a revolution under coach Goff, this week’s top 10 will be a countdown of the top offensive players from the Ray Goff era. We will only consider their time under Goff however. So if you skim this list and wonder why certain players aren’t higher, it’s because they spent chunks of their careers with other head coaches.
