More Cats coming to town. What now?

Great post Buc, thriller, very true. I have questioned AM a few times, but he has grown so much. As a reshirt frosh, I understood those mistakes. There were a few bad mistakes as a sophomore. Realized last year that AM had grown up. Same mistakes weren't happening, which I can accept. This year. Without AM, we are 1-4. Very happy AM has a thirst to learn. Too many talents don't have this competitive desire to be the absolute best. AM does.

Stafford comparison spot on. I think up until last year, they were very similiar. Now, not comparable. Wonder if Stafford would have been more successful in the NFL had he stayed another year. The growth AM has gained will only help his stock, which is rising every Sat. Very Happy for AM. Deserves a lot. He could be playing on Sunday's right now, but chose to comeback.

Loved Stafford but always felt he was meant more for the NFL than college ball.

What he said . . . .!! Good "stuff" AllDawgs5.

I had some moments also in AM's third year, but never once did he take a shot at his offensive coach. Tim Brando interviewed AM yesterday on his program, just a great young man that cared enough to postpone his future for the University of Georgia, its fans and players.

They don't come along often enough this day and time.

Young men remaining in Athens wanting to play the QB position, frankly AM changed how that is done. Moves our program up another step on the ladder. :)

I wish Shawn Williams was here to call out this Defense I said this part the rest was from dawgbytes.

Damian Swann was a second-team preseason All-SEC selection by the coaches.


The Georgia junior cornerback is going to need a strong second half of the season to get any postseason honors.

“Damian, I’d say is struggling right now,” coach Mark Richt said. “He’s missed some tackles in the open field and he’s gotten beat on some coverages that have been tough on him. There have been some things that he has struggled with, but he’s also made some plays for us, as well. I think if you asked him, he’d tell you that he wants to perform better and he’s working towards that.”

Swann missed an open-field tackle against Clemson’s Sammy Watkins on a 77-yard touchdown and slipped and fell in coverage on a 48-yard touchdown against LSU’s Kadron Boone.

“When you’re in man-to-man, you’ve got to make a play on the ball,” defensive coordinator Todd Grantham said. “He’s a guy who has a lot of pride in his work. He’s done a good job of leading our team. …He’ll make some plays for us now.”

Coaches have credited Swann for having a strong work ethic. He’s eighth on the team with 18 tackles and has three pass breakups.

Freshman cornerback Shaq Wiggins started his first game at Tennessee. Grantham liked what he saw.

“I was really pleased with the way he tackled in the game,” Grantham said. “He made some tackles that people probably don’t see because he actually gets the guy down and finishes the block.”

Missouri’s tall receiving corps will present a challenge to Swann, Wiggins and Georgia in the form of 6-6 Dorial Green-Beckham, 6-4 L’Damian Washington and 6-5 Marcus Lewis.

Green-Beckham is starting to live up to all that recruiting hype.

“He’s really come on,” Grantham said. “He’s a really good player now, making plays on the ball, going and getting it. He’s really becoming probably what people thought he would be before he played last year.”

Hope Grantham is not making excuses ahead of time. It is his job to figure out what needs to be done, and has to be done. Grantham has been around long enough to know that if you are giving something away, you have to counter and take something away. Football has always been coached that way . . . . by the successful coaches.

We'll get it worked out! We'll get it worked out! We'll get it worked out! Sorry folks,but, that is really getting old so stop the lip service. I'd rather you did'nt say anything and just do something about it. You are coaches at a Div 1 school with many years of experience so work it out and quit talking about it and don't beat your chest when you do your job. It's whats expected of you. Sorry Buc, your post must have been made while I was doing the same.

The sun shines on a different Dawg every day
