More suspensions looming

growl wrote: Pier pressure overides good coaching, respect,and even self preservation a lot of times, and it seems the harder you or I try the harder it gets to get a point across. I would hate to have to deal with coaching these days, the problems seem to be almost insurmountable, especially when the ones you think are past the trouble become the ones in trouble. I wish I had an answer for you,but,keeping your hands on 'em 24 hours a day isnt't it.

I hear you growl about dealing with being a coach nowadays but for 3-5 million.....I'll give it a try...

I'm hearing this will be the suspensions

BS-1 game
AO-2 game
BR-4 game

But after looking at the backups we're really not in THAT bad of shape.

Linebackers you'll have JJ CR MG and proably be moving Washington back to linebacker just for the first 2 games. That's still a really strong group.

At Rambo's position I look for Marc Deas to really stepup he's got the skills just needs to show them and don't forget about Corey Moore either.

And besides if we can keep Mizzu's qb under pressure with our guys up front I think we'll be able to hold our own.

Just glad our 2nd game is'nt SC anymore.

Could always move Samuel back to LB.

wlayton, guess that is what bothers me the most. All of the young men playing football in Athens know that our university has been raked through the coals. For the past couple of years UGA has been in the "neon lights".

Urban Meyer and some other recognized coaches have had problems much worse or should I say as bad as we have. They however don't seem to get the national media attention that UGA does. Does not really matter about state to state rules, has to do with media hype.

One would think that at some point the light would go on for these young men, and coaches. Let us not forget our ex-AD, red panties, Donnan and there are other cases.

From where I sit, time for McGarity to show his ability to make some improvements.

One other point, Rambo as I said before is not a freshman. Shame on him. Second time for Ogletree (9), I have this feeling that his head has gotten too big for his body. Big heads should use the gray matter that is just below the skull. Falling out with Ogletree also. Second time, first time stealing, something wrong here, appears to be a flaw in his character. Some can overlook that because that is the new wave of football players . . . sorry, don't buy that.

I can understand young fellow making mistakes, but like a good friend of mine in Brevard County, Florida says . . . . Don't like seeing those repeat offenders in front of my bench. No excuses for either of these players.

I'm wondering about all the other SEC school coaches, are they testing there players as much as UGA coaches are testing there players?

And if so are they being true full about the test results? With Florida being so weak and on one the websites I read that some coaches don’t even count the first drug test results, This tells me that winning is more important than anything else.

But this is my own opinion about that.

TampaDawg, think your last sentence hits the nail on the head. That goes for all schools, and universities.
