From Athens-Spring 2014 About Time!

Buc I feel Jarvis did what he wanted too own defense because we know Toddy didn't teach him.
Toddy Thank you for leaving.

DWS, here is more to look at and draw conclusions. More and more we have to be realistic. UGA football is not in the upper echelon of college football. My opinion, not because of talent, it is in my opinion the "Group" that controls what we are permitted to see and hear coming from Athens.

Have gotten to the point that I read Bill King's work. He has a following and much is said in the comment section, both pro and con.

Reading his column today, thought about the conversations we have here, almost as if we are several days ahead of those that don't post here.

Kevin Butler, in my opinion, one of the true Dawgs of all time. Kevin loved/loves the University of Georgia, and after he left and became a professional, always took time to reflect on the University of Georgia and what it meant to him. Son could kick the spit out of the football also. Still can.

When Kevin calls someone out, there is good reason for that, not some dumb ass fan that has never taken the time to understand what has gone on in Athens, and at this point "might" be changing direction. Pruitt will take no spit. I said that.

DWS, you have probably read the article and many others as well, but here it is again.

This paragraph from the article interested me . . . .

Still, all we can do is take Richt at his word that everybody on the team, including Mason, is competing for a starting job. Here’s what the head coach said this week: “Let me just say this about the QB situation: Hutson’s obviously ahead of everybody. But we don’t want any position to think there’s no chance that anybody can take my job, or take playing time or whatever. So we’re telling everybody to compete for the starting job. We’re not saying, hey try to win the No. 2 job. I’m not trying to cause a controversy at all, because Hutson is clearly in the lead. But it’s going be his job to keep it that way and it’s going be the other guy’s job to try to close the gap. And I told that to the rest of the team, too.”

The last line in the paragraph Richt said he told that to the rest of the team too.

I take that to mean the offensive side of the ball, sure as heck he did not mean to say that he was interferring with Pruitt and the defense. Richt is lost when it comes to defensive play calling. If that was not the case, then Mike Bobo is running the offense, Richt could spend his time running the defense. Some of us know better. Just stay the heck out of the way.

Promises are made often in Washington, have heard some of the same from our head coach. Things like Special Teams, including the field goal kicking aspect. Sounds a lot like obamacare to me when I take a serious look at what is "real".

Buc thanks for sharing theQ & A with Towel Toddy. Seems Bobby and TT are best buds going back to

When Shep was a pup. TOWEL was our 5th pick money says he was lower in his current job

I sense a train wreck much like Lame K at UT. Can't wait to see how this plays out

I shudder to think Jarvis Jones playing in CJP system Munson would have trouble coming up

With words to describe his play

IMO. CMR is not a pathological liar many faults that's not one HM yes he is now the starter

Many days until Climpson. FB will get quality snaps this year not just mop up I feel the wrinkles

CMB. Was speaking of has to do with FB. Completely a different set of issues for a defense

That is playing us. World will find out FB can pass the football. Plus he is a film junkie

Like AM. Coaches understand he is one play away from being the man


Go Dawgs

yankeedawg1, one thing is paramount for the success or failure of Hutson Mason or Faton Bauta or anyone else wanting the quarterback position. Same applies to all . . . . offensive line.

We know what McCarron did while at Alabama. In the current NFL listings at the quarterback position he does not rate as highly as some others. Thing is, his head coach understood the value of an offensive line. Does not get much clearer than that. Called team play if championships are the prize. Team play also includes the coaching staff.

Another very good example of team play was exhibited at FSU in 2013. More of those Nick Saban taught coaches. Hard for some to face facts, but look at the National Championships gathered under Saban and those that coached for him.

Read a lot of "chatter" on the internet, much of it coming from supposed UGA fans. Throwing everything but the kitchen sink at Nick Saban. 99% of them would be silent if the same was going on in Athens. Alabama folks love football, put their MONEY where their mouths are. Results speak for themselves. Something else, other than hiring a new defense has to change in my opinion for us to come close to where Alabama is.

Over the past 13 years, seems we always have one side of the team much better than the other. Both sides need to carry their water. That I believe to be a lack of understanding recruiting.

Some might not like this but, Auburn is again recruiting offensive linemen heavily. Gus Malzahn also knows what it takes to get into what is now going to be the final four. Some have said that we had better backs, ok buy that, but what about the group that allows backs to be all that. That shoe fit? Gus and Nick know.

Happy Sunday.

Edit: This move is a very big help to the running backs and the quarterback. Like Quayvon's attitude in the video. This will put smiles on Gurley and the other running backs. Also gives the offensive line a boost.

Appears more and more to me that Douglas is moving to fullback. That also has strong possibilities from that position.

Quote from Mark Richt . . . . Discussing the offensive line.

Georgia coach Mark Richt offered this up on Saturday: “I don’t know if we’ve got two full lines that can play but we’re getting closer to that around here, which is a good thing.”

Buc,Glad I checked before trying to hook you up with our fish wrapper quote on CMR and the "O" line

Almost spit my coffee when I read that this morning. My mind went directly to you and your gospel on "O" line play

I can't remember CMR speaking about the "O" line as a group only sighting players

QH can play TE if he learns to block with his body he would be a terror laying wood another case of getting his head right

Might just nudge JR to be himself Nice article on MB moving to guard also in the ABH worth a look

IMO we are getting more info this spring from the coaches and less coach speak- fluff That in itself is news

Lastly more good words about KM progressing Also noticed they are calling MM problem a leg issue not his knee

good to shut him down until summer drills and fall camp Stay well

my winner for the tourney was "Cuse" gone!!! Go Dawgs
