He didn't look like he was sitting on throne speaking to his subjects more connected
yd1, like what you just posted, it appears some are becoming more focused on the task at hand, coaches and players.
Enjoyed watching Todd Gurley point out that Ramik Wilson is always in the way. I am also with ogredawg on Carter at linebacker. This linebacker "thingy" is needed when we face off with Auburn, and Gus understands that.
Just for kicks, (don't laugh too loudly) would like to see Herrera lining up at defensive end or just off the shoulder of the 3 man front in the linebacker position. My bet is we will.
Hard not to like seeing young men strapping on the gear and walking (or running) on the practice field understanding that they have a chance to start on Saturdays. Have mentioned much that I do not like since the early 80's. I can say this, really like the fact that "something" has changed in Athens.
I know who is responsible for the change, and it is not a secret at this point.
Again, this is not a kick the head coach in the butt, but someone on this board should explain to me why it has taken this long to have players, young pups saying that this was needed. All any of us have to do is watch what is coming out of the mouths of these very talented young men.
Some will be disappointed, but it will not be what I witnessed in Orlando when we played Nebraska. Sitting on the 50 yard line, I watched very talented players with no interest whatsoever in the game. I said that.
Trying to speak for Erk (
) and the new regime, enough of the same stuff since 1980. Where is it written that a young coach cannot come to campus and get everyones attention? Think about that last statement. Mark Richt came to campus and lit things up for most of us, including me from the FSU Campus.
Old fart like me, don't have to put a time line on when we do this or that. Just incredibly tired of the same BS that I have witnessed since the early 80's. Pulled that from Duck's posts.
Glad you are on campus Jeremy, also understand that there is a "time stamp" on your career and moving forward. Not for a minute do I think that it is "money motivated", you come from the same stock that Erk came from. You understand these young men in high schools and their "situations". Those before you on the defensive side did not have a damn clue. Yes, I said that, and stand by it.
Simpy this . . . . Coach these young pups up. If someone is in the way, time to move the obstacle. Said that too.
