Buc, personally, I'm cautiously excited. Richt definitely came through on signing day, so that's exciting, but I've seen this movie before. I'm hoping he's gotten the message from Mick this time, and proves it this fall. We definitely have the potential to have a good season.
I'm anxious to see how Crowell pans out. If he lives up to his potential, definately could be the Lattimore/Dyer factor for us. I personally think his main competition for playing time will come from Malcome, not Ealey.
Very interested to see how the D pans out. REALLY hoping JJ commits to us tomorrow. We have the tools, especially if JJ's there, to return to the JYD's.
No excuses for Richt in the fall.
Folks have discussed what would have to happen for Richt to keep his job. For me to be satisfied with the season, what HAS to happen is not W-L, but this--
Beat Boise, SC, UF, and the nerds (the nerds shouldn't be hard to beat).
Win the east.
Play a respectable NY's day bowl
To me that would be a satisfactory turnaround.
And, it's hard to believe I'm saying this, but my "gut" feeling is that we will accomplish that.
The SMART era CONTINUES!!!!!!
