Just reading about them and they both had fine carrers. I saw Coker just stepped down from Utsa and I bet he will get an oc job if he still wants to coach. Ericsson still coachiing as oc at Utah. The fact that they won in Miami more than other places just speaks to the talented players in the state.

Exactly... you don't really seem to know what
you are talking about.

GO DAWGS!

Woof woof woof!

Yep... saw the announcement.

Maybe we can get our identity back. At one time we utilized the TE quite a bit. While MR was sleeping at the wheel, that went by the wayside.

Yeah, imagine that. We haven't seen a TE used since the days of Leonard Pope.

So, where are all the CMR apologists who said our recruiting class was going to fall apart if we lost the great wonderful one?

Crickets chirping.

Well, the point I was trying to make was the u won five championships with four different coaches. All of the coaches did a lot better in south Florida than anywhere else they coached.

He will be a good one at some point for us but he needs a lot of coaching and time before he shines. Let's coach up Ramsey to start and redshirt Eason next year and let Eason run the scout team.

I'd love to have Hardman or Robertson! I think we get both! Nauta was huge!

There was a lot of talk on this board about Jacob Eason and the difference in competition he will see once calling signals in the SEC.

What happened to Eason today in the Army Bowl could very well be a "good thing". Jacob is no dummy and today he saw and felt the speed delivered by players with much more talent that he has played against in high school. Call that "lesson learned" the hard way.

Jacob Eason has wheels. Surprised me moving around with the ball. Did not look "strange" as some quarterbacks do when moving around. Tells me that our offensive coordinator will teach Jacob Eason how to "side step" move his "hips".

Brought up several times by the announcers that he was throwing "fastballs", true dat. Read that he had also had "touch", did not see much of that. Again, Jacob will spend some time watching the game played today, and will benefit from doing so.

Folks think most of us know that there will be others, just who, well I go along with sflanagan21 and his wishes. Good to see you back sf21.

Buc, I had to step away from UGA football in general for a while per the wife. This was one of the hardest seasons to watch in a very long time for me! I'm an offensive guy and watching our O this year was torture and I'll leave it at that.

Thank goodness the Smart era has begun and the future looks as bright as ever! I could go on and on about how much different things are going to be under Smart but it's not new news to anyone here at dawgs.com.

I'm excited about the future of our program and all the success that Smart is going to bring to the University. Within 3-5 years you won't be seeing all those Bama flags flying in Georgia anymore and you can book that!

GO DAWGS
