There is NO doubt our O will be lethal again in 14'! We are getting back KM, MM and JSW, not to mention Gurley will be stronger and faster! We have Rump, Conley, Bennett and Davis, also excited to see what Tramel Terry and AJ Turman can do! I could go on and on about how talented our O is but the fact is we will NOT have AM and even though I think HM is more than capable of running the show, the fact is he NO AM! And I really like HM BUT AM is special and his will to win is why we won a lot of our games! Our O line, well I don't know...

Our D is VERY talented and I really think next year will be a lot different on that side of the ball. Yea Grantham will still be there but just like AM made Bobo look good in a lot of games so will our playmakers on D! And we have some very skilled athletes on that side of the ball fellows! Floyd is just a straight beast and Ray Drew is on his way to earning those 5 stars!!! Josh Harvey Clemons maybe unstoppable next year and a healthy Tray Matthews will be FUN to watch! Ramik Wislon and Herrera are also forces to be reckoned with! I'm also excited to see Wiggins and Mauger with a year under their belts, Reggie Wilkerson will get in the mix and he should impress! I think we will see Bellamy getting some action too.

The fact is we have some great talent in Athens and that can NOT be denied! Our D showed tons of heart and a lot of potential, BUT of course Grantham is our DC, hmm... Still, I think our D will play up next year and all we be okay on that side of the ball. Trying to keep it positive!!!

sorry I tend to disagree we are losing 3 starters on the O line and that will kill us once again.

You're right sflanagan but talent has not been an issue in recent years in Athens.

The SMART era CONTINUES!!!!!!

A positive for sure is Dyshon Sims, Lowndes County. Same can be said about Isaiah Wynn, St. Petersburg (Lakewood High School). Isaiah is a bad boy. Don't know a lot about Jake Edwards, keep thinking that someone on this board might have some information on Jake. I will at some point go looking for more on Jake Edwards, a need to know.

Very happy that Brandon Kublanow kept his word and moved to Athens. Talent unlimited.

Other than Dyshon Sims being an absolute monster at left tackle, it gave us a serious inroad to the talent in the Valdosta area. We had just came away with JHC from Lowndes, looked to be a giant step. Cannot speak at this point to whether the FSU season showing will close that door. Cannot blame the young men wanting to play for a winner. Indirect shot, trying to be nice.

South Georgia folks have always liked the short distance to Tallahassee. Bobby Bowden moved on, Jimbo had to dig his heels in and become the head coach that Nick Saban knew he could be. Matter of fact Jimbo got a little help from Nick, sending him a defensive coach. Seems that worked out. One thing can be counted on . . . . if Jimbo Fisher asks Nick Saban for anything that will help him win against Auburn . . . . done deal.

ogredawg and I have always (or most of the time) been on the same page about offensive and defensive lines. Offensive lines especially. We have scholarships yet to be offered, from what I can see and hope for . . . . find more Dyshon Sims and Isaiah Wynn's.


Allow me this. I have seen it said on this board several times. To hell with these 5 star folks, find me a 2 or 3 star young man that "wants" to play football and then we will start to do some things "differently" around Athens. Too many times we get caught up in the media hype about a 4 or 5 star player in my opinion, when there are some "down in the dirt" young men that will work for their keep. I said that, and have heard it from DAWGtm, ogredawg and others.

If FSU wins the National Championship, bad news for Muschamp and Florida, Jeremy Foley understands that. FSU will be hard to handle on the recruiting trail. Florida's worst nightmare is FSU winning out.

Saw where some rate us in the top 25. A far reach from where this season began. Munson used to tell us to "hunker down". That time has come.

Faton Bauta can put a smile on our faces, but he can't do that without a good offensive line. Auburn runs basically a handful of plays off of some straight dive sets. Just saying . . . . :)

Buc. have touched on this before and will again before NSD

Give me the players who want to play in Athens. Stars are for what has been done in HS

Clock resets when you play in college. Artie Lynch has made himself into a NFL. TE

Work and more work good on him. Now it is JR's turn

I have turned my focus to supporting the players who make the choice to wear the "G"


The coaching issues will work themselves out. Understand it might not be as qickly as we would like

As much as we were frustrated and disappointed this group did provide some genuine thrills and excitement this season.

Looking forward to our bowl game. Go Dawgs

Go Dawgs!

Nebraska fans support their team in bowl games. Enjoyed being around the Nebraska fans in Orlando last season. Good group.

Georgia of course is playing what I would call a "home game". Be a good place for Hutson Mason to play, not watch from the sideline. Might be beneficial in 2014 for Hutson to get this game under his belt.

Might also give us some insight into who might get playing time next season. JAX has a great Bulldog Club.
