Sharing some post signing day reflections and other stuff.

CTG has stocked the kennel extremely well with young talent. Fact!

Truly like his thinking we can’t every have to many athletes, we will find a place for them.

Least not forget we have several blue chip recruits from last year that will be competing for playing time this spring on both sides of the line.

Depth building. A very good thing!

Being gassed at the end of the game is something CTG never wants to happen again.

CWF has some quality bodies to work with. Look for CFW to turn heads in his second year as OLC. Good guy, will become a very good coach.

To hell with being the heaviest OL in football.

Let’s get some people that want to block and move the pile forward.

Had coffee with one of my locals and he brought up something he had heard off campus.

The “O” guys don’t want the “D” guys to get all the glory and press this season.

He also made the comment to look for CTG’s-tude to show up when we have the ball.

Not saying that Mizzou will be an easy game but they won’t sneak up on us.

The experience of starting 0-2 last will not happen this year.

We messed our shorts in our last bowl game so without question it will be take no prisoners from the opening kickoff.

Only way to get the taste out of our mouths and to change the conversation, is to win! This team learned that last year and went on a 10 game streak.

It was 1981 the last time that we won that many in a row.

I like us making an early statement.

This years spring game will have some added flair with guys seeking to get PT and sort out the pecking order. Looking forward to it.

Pause and give thanks

Have a safe weekend and a great week.

As always “Go Dawgs”]]> Georgia Bulldog Football Fri, 03 Feb 2012 11:15:33 +0000 http://dawgs.com/georgia-bulldog-football/45684-ratings-and-rankings/index2.html#45684 http://dawgs.com/georgia-bulldog-football/45684-ratings-and-rankings/index2.html#45684 Or 60.

Read in the AJC and other media outlets both here in Florida and nationally about RANKINGS. Everyone wants to know where the "money makers" those that charge for "inside" information have ranked their respective team.

This late in the day, took me back to Boise State and the University of Georgia for openers. Anyone that cares to look, Boise State was not anywhere close to being ranked where the University of Georgia was, when it comes to player ratings. Not where the teams were rated, where the recruiting classes were rated.

How many on this board have read where the University of Georgia has been ranked in the top 10 for ever how many years. Those rankings come from people like ESPN, NIKE, SCOUT, 247 and the list goes on and on. They charge us to publish the information that they think they have a better feel for. Nothing wrong with that right, free enterprise. They must know more than we do, they tell us in so many ways that they do and we should pay them for their large data bases.

OK, down to the crux of the matter. If we have better players than say, Boise State, why do they beat us? If we have better players and a higher ranking that Michigan State, why do they beat us? If our class is ranked higher than South Carolina, why have they beat us two years in a row, and maybe looking at a third? Florida usually has a higer ranked team and ratings than UGA does, especially since SS and UM cast their lots with the Gators.

Lets move on to LSU, Alabama both SEC teams, but what about teams nationally that don't have the same recruiting rankings that we do, but seem to finish better.

Why are we getting beaten by these teams that don't get the amount of star recruits that UGA does? Is it because we don't have a good fan base? Is it because we don't have enough capital to provide excellent facilities for the players?

If anyone on this board can and will answer some of these questions, I would like to see what you think. I have thoughts, otherwise would not have started a thread like this one. If for some reason you don't have a thought on the above, makes me wonder why some of the things, such as opinions I see expressed on this board would stop short on a thread like this one. Don't back off and ask me what I think, most know that I am full of opinions. If you do that however, it will certainly make me wonder why first you would not have a thought on the subject(s). Second, I will tell you what I think some of the problems are, not because I want to start WWIII, just curious as to opinions.

Go Dawgs, coach'em up!! ]]> Georgia Bulldog Football Thu, 02 Feb 2012 23:41:49 +0000 http://dawgs.com/georgia-bulldog-football/45668-what-new-dawg/index2.html#45668 http://dawgs.com/georgia-bulldog-football/45668-what-new-dawg/index2.html#45668
There are several but personally can't wait to see Fatone Bauta.

We have 25 scholarships to give out and we only give out 19. Ok we give maybe 2 at the most to walk ons who have earned them and I have no problem with that what so ever. That leaves 4 hanging out there and we have a real need for depth on the OL. Now you can not tell me that we could not flip at least 4 O Lineman from other schools. Even 2 or 3 good 3 star ones who commited to schools like Kentucky, Vandy Ole Miss. etc. We lost 3 last year from what was not by our standards a very good OL. Now we have some very good redshirt guys coming in but most know it takes a while for the OL to become a unit. There even has to be some JUCO OL out there who would love to come put thier hand in the dirt for UGA. Are we to continue to an injury or 2 away from disaster. With Mason putting on the redshirt this year and Murray goes down will Lemay be good enough. Would even Mason be good enough if the redshirt had to come off with what little actual game experience he has.

I just don't get it.]]> UGA Football Recruiting Thu, 02 Feb 2012 16:56:01 +0000
