From Athens -Friday Thoughts - 24-04-20

Good Day All,

April showers have been the order of the day this week. At last the tree pollen is getting washed away… it has been extra heavy the spring.

Other than continuing to recruit at a very high level for 2021….not much Dawg chatter. Big noise is the NFL Draft and who are the Dawgs going to wind up signing with….

Tampa Bay is all in with the V2.0 of the Patriots….. me questions will the Bucs sizzle or fizzle with Brady and Gronk…..

Time will tell ….. Seems that there is a leaning towards it being Memorial Day before everything is trying to restart…. Hopefully some of that is true.

The State of Georgia is trying to restart some small businesses …. 4/24/20 & 4/27/20 …. Governors Office has put out a detailed list of 20 points that

Need to be followed to remain open…… two caught my eye…. Provide necessary PPE for employees ….. challenge here is there is already a shortage.. and now you are increasing demand without increasing supply ….. ???? Second was extensively disinfectant all areas.. employee and customer..

Once again …. All cleaning supplies are in very limited supply … and you increase demand without an increase of supply… ????

Truly understand the desire to get small businesses open…. More to follow I am sure… Sorry Boss Dawg drifted of course again…..

Pause and give thanks……

Have a great weekend and week

Right about now I bet Fromm wished he has stayed in school.

Yep...

I thought it was a foolish decision and now he probably does as well. He wen't from a guy projected as a possible 1st rounder a couple of years ago to a guy that will probably have a NFL career like Aaron Murray.

I hope he enjoys cold weather and dirty snow because Buffalo in the winter is a horrible place.. especially when you are holding a clipboard.

Good luck to him though.. he was a great kid and DGD.

Yep.

Realistically he could stumble into a starting gig there. Allen is an OK option. But yeah if he had stayed he likely would have been better off.

I wish him well but the way he left did not sit well with me so....

I was shocked when Fromm declared. Last season's body of work was not the performance you want to use as a sales pitch to NFL scouts. I don't know who was advising him to leave or if he just didn't want to go through another OC and a new playbook to learn all over again. Sometimes rebuilding just isn't worth it, but I still say he did himself no favors.

I wish Jake the best but he has his work cut out for him if he's going to make it in the big show.
