From Athens- Half a dozen to go !

Good Morning All,

We sit with “Six” Saturday’s to go before kickoff.

After checking out the postings this week many have touched on one of my favorite subjects.

Passion and how much the Dawg Nation cares about its football and we make no excuses about how we feel.

CJT and CTG are two examples of being passion driven in their work.

AM is happy camper that RS is back at RB to help with blocking and give IC a chance to work his way into playing time. It won’t hurt that he can mentor IC as to do what’s best for the team. Park your BMOC mind set at the door. Word is IC is taking hold of CJT’s training in a favorable way and AM is impressed on how fast IC is learning the playbook. To quote AM what he has seen of IC he is the real deal.

I have also heard that CMB is working to retool parts of our passing game to focus on mid range passes. Two TE sets that will feature OC.

OC is one of players that can have a huge year. He will also force single coverage on our WR which will have AM licking his chops.

We go to the dome healthy and we will leave with a win. BSU will bear the brunt of our 6-7 season.

Players,Coaches,AD and fans all will come to Atlanta with an off season load of passion and many hours of hard work in the weight room to get us started with a win.

There have also been several sightings this week of Erk’s ghost on campus;

The feeling is he also has had enough of ours wimpy defenses. I would say he has paid a few late night visits to CTG.

Speaking of Bulldog passion Erk was all about it.

Fall practice will be here shortly and the tempo will start to rise. It is a great time of year to be in Athens.

Sweating your socks off and getting ready to rumble.

The real noise starts in six weeks. We be ready !

Pause and give thanks……

Have a great weekend and a safe week. As always “Go Dawgs”!!!!

Forget who it was on this board that brought up the tight end sets a short time back yankeedawg1.

Trying not to look past Boise State, that would be a mistake. However, against South Carolina and UGA still playing with the offensive line, 3 tight ends could be a big advantage against a strong USC defensive front.

Made mention in another thread that I think Tavarres King is going to be huge this season, agreeing with your observation above about AM.

Getting closer yankeedawg1, enjoy your weekend and take good care of "Georgia".

If any retooling of the offense is taking place, I hope somebody is guiding Bozo while he's doing it---otherwise, if he's trying to figure it out himself, results could be....well, questionable, at best.

I read where AM said that IC was making some of our defenders "fall down" when trying to get him. That's just awesome.

If we can work this offensive line thingy out, and as sadlerdawg said, give Bobo some help with understanding four quarters of offensive football, interesting results, maybe.

Still believe that what we are seeing in Athens is what yankeedawg1 said. Grantham and JTII are doing things the right way, kicking the BMOC's to the curb, that is if they choose to play and practice the same way as they have the past three or four years.

My opinion, it is not IC's team to put on his shoulders. That tag belongs to AM. Take AM away from this team and what ya gonna do . . . . Pressure this year sits squarely on #11. IC will be able to showcase his talent because of heads up folks like AM. Team first. Bobo, might want to get out of the way . . . . at least a little bit.

Coach'em Up . . .

Bowling anyone?

"Could he end up playing some kind of "Wham back" in a short-yardage situation? That's possible. He's a big boy. He's athletic. He's got hands, too. Who knows, we might do that. I know this, he's wearing a single digit, No. 6, so he thinks he's a skill player." - Richt on Johnathan Jenkins playing some offense.
