    QB battle

    A few thoughts: This has been one of the more entertaining threads in history and I just figured out why. It reads like a masterpiece murder mystery. We are all analyzing clues like coaches' comments and body language, player comments, practice video clips discerning who is lining up with who...

    Current BBack Situation: What say you???

    Losing one player isn't equivalent to losing two or three. C'mon, let's not go overboard. Our point man got shot, now let's deal with it. The enemy isn't going away. Benson looked good to me. I haven't seen Howard. Others say he looks good. Stuff happens all the time. I'll be there rooting.

    There is just going to be a different hero. That is all. Personally, I'm glad CPJ does what he does and I could care less if it is in line with the rest of CFB or not. If you want to be a Jacket, then you don't do these things

    Fall Camp Thread

    All this talk about passing and what is a good passer in our offense, at times, is very short sighted. First of all, in a traditional offense, if you remove all of the passes completed within 3 yards of the LOS or behind it, what percentage of completion would the "good" passers have? If you...

    QB battle

    Do you guys remember when CPJ asked our guys to let UGA score late? Brilliant strategy and the only chance we had. Sometimes scoring quickly is NOT what you want to do, especially in certain end of game scenarios. It is not just the 2 pt conversion you have to worry about. What about onside kicks?

    Unexpected Recruiting Observation

    I think the baseline conclusion that you draw from this is that recruiting is difficult and predicting performance of 18 year olds three years down the road very challenging. With that said, playing "opposite George" (sorry for the Seinfeld reference) is probably not a good strategy. If we...

    QB battle

    There is no physical reason why JJ couldn't run midline. It is just that the reads are different and the feel is different. JT never really seemed to grasp the feel of interior option running vs getting to the outside. Man was he good in space. Personally, I think JJ will become to "running...

    That is good. Midline is near and dear to my heart.

    QB battle

    This is a very good point. Bottom line: whether wildly athletic or a physical plodder, our QB must be a distributor first. We have guys at the AB position who have proven they can make plays. Ultimately, IMHO we need a QB who forces the opposing DC to scheme to stop HIM, then he can distribute...

    Fall Camp Thread

    Hindsight is 20/20. In my mind, you always play for today first and 4 years down the road later. If we needed help on returns and he could provide it, put him out there. Would I have loved having him in 2015? Sure, but I understand why we didn't. If a kid has potential but doesn't make you...

    Fall Camp Thread

    Adams looks like an action figure. Holy Cow. He is far more trim than last year.

    QB battle

    I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I am finding the drama surrounding our QB position this year to be the most compelling story yet in the CPJ era. For me, it is truly exciting, perhaps partly because I have been a little more removed lately, combined with the knowledge that we have...

    Scrimmage update

    Just a little experience talking here: When I hear coach say stuff like "player x is a big play waiting to happen for somebody" try to remember, it is way easier to learn not to make a big play for the other team than it is to learn to make a huge play for your own team. Generally speaking, the...

    Scrimmage update

    I'm glad to hear that TM had a good day. Sadly, I couldn't be there (kills me). All any of us should really be rooting for is one of those four separating themselves from the pack. It seems any of the four are capable, so, if one makes a jump and separates, then we will have something really...

    Great Interview with Candeto

    If you start with a guy who can run the option, then when you add seeing the field and throwing the deep ball with touch, you blow the top off this offense. Running with power is important to me. Midlines and QB follows are important to me. However, I would give an edge to the passer over the...

    Which is more important to you? HDTV or Internet

    Well, you can get the vast majority of games live on the net. Only certain network's games would be omitted from your viewing pleasure. You can't say the opposite. Selection is limited on HDTV.

    For This to be a Special Year

    Good question. In my mind, double digit wins is a special year.

    For This to be a Special Year

    I agree with the importance of Cooper, but at the same time, he played really well while he was in, so, even without improvement, he should be a stalwart.

    For This to be a Special Year

    Which player on the team has to make the biggest jump? In my mind it is Brandon Adams. He was the only DL last year to get meaningful push on the interior and hold his ground consistently. Many will look for a QB in order to answer the original question, but for my money, a firm interior of the...
