I was hoping to see more from the WRs too. While I saw Dolphus miss at least one opportunity to make a play, to say they stunk it up is a bit strong, given the situation. It looked to me like guys who play in an offense where most of the reps go to the running game, trying to get in sync with...

Keep in mind it wasn’t just Cooper. We had zero starting OL playing except one tackle who was out of position at center. CPJ said he might be back in 3 months so he might not miss any of the season. Hopefully we get Andrew Marshall back healthy because he played center as a true freshman too.

Completely agree. Definitely could become the best passer in Johnson era by far. While he’s not the fastest or quickest, he is plenty fast enough, runs hard and decisively, and he’s big. He also looks very comfortable in the option game.

I was mostly watching skill players, and it was hard not to watch the defense, so I didn’t notice who was on the line. Braun and Cooper were out and Lee was at Center. I didn’t notice Bryan. Did anyone take note of who else was on the starting OL?

Most notable impressions: The defense was playing g fast and disruptive all game, but this was not our actual OL. At least one major bust in coverage, but the D made us punt a lot. Passing was sloppy. Both quartbacks showed flashes passing, throwing some nice looking balls. LJ hesitated too...

I like #1, but #2 is fine too.

That’s the one. The UGA defense was just as surprised as the rest of us. Also, that was awesome.

Interesting stuff. Particularly “QB has to be involved in the run game.” In my 20+ years as a GT fan the only time we’ve been good without that was Friedgen/Godsey. That’s probably true quite a bit further back than 20 years.

Is it possible that we’ve elected not to have it broadcast to get our pathetic attendance up a little? I know I’m more likely to go since I can’t watch from my living room.

Assuming Marshall is healthy in the fall, coming off the bench we’d have Stickler, Clark, and both Morgan twins all in the 286-290 range, and Hansen listed at 325. That’s 5 likely depth players who are all big by our usual standards. I would guess a lot of the guys are getting snaps who won’t...

Maybe I’m missing something, but it looks like they just give tickets to football players and coaches for their spring game. Ours is already free to anyone who cares to show up.

This policy has been in place since at least last year. CPJ said he was tired of certain media members asking every coach the same question until they got a quote that fit what they wanted to write, or something to that effect.

The narrative that Johnson is so unwilling to mix it up and try different things is completely false. But the local media, who clearly never bother to watch a single snap of our games, keeps repeating it, so it must be true.

It’s funny how when CPJ isn’t coming off a great season his personality suddenly becomes an issue. I find his personality to be close to Nick Saban’s, except he’s less of an a**hole and has a much better sense of humor. The difference in their “personality” is mostly the difference in winning...

I think this is true, and it’s intetesting that overall distribution of runs by A backs was way down if you compare it to our more successful years. So, I would guess TQM was trying to get the ball to the ABs as much as possible, even when there wasn’t much there. This suggests to me that our...

I don’t remember him being terrible. In fact, I remember Mark Bradley declaring him the starter after the spring game one year.

The good thing is it makes it easier to see improvement in year 1 when the defense has sucked for years. I also think we have some really good young players, but then again, I think that every year.

I was just thinking about all the attrition we’ve had on the OL over the past several years. Unless I’m missing someone, we’ve lost no one from the 2015, 2016, or 2017 classes yet. From the 2014 class, Brown, Whitley, and Preddy would have all been RS in 2018. I count 8 scholarship OL, not...

True, but Cottrell played in the same system with same QB as the rest of last year’s Abacks and had a higher ypc than the rest. And he had more carries than any other Aback except Searcy (only 3 more carries), so a few long runs would represent a lower percentage of his total carries. Also...

What’s with all of Cottrell only lead the team with 8.2 ypc last season. And he still has 2 years to play. I guess when a player is so hyped coming out of high school, they almost never meet the impossible expectations that are set. I think if he stays healthy, in 2 years we’ll all be wishing...
