Having 4 QBs that have a chance of winning the job is different than having the ideal set up to get a back up QB some reps. When JT and Vad got reps they were rotating in for a seasoned starter. Last year we didnt have a seasoned starter. This year it's a better situation to get LJ some...

Drop off between starter and back up was likely too large last year (i.e. what DCS says above...can't blow the game just to give experience). This year I am guessing the drop off between 1 & 2will be much less. But I could be wrong....maybe LJ won't play except in garbage time.

Much better film than Messick's, which was actually a lot of perimeter runs. Better comparison is Camp.

When Vad was QB JT got series. When TW was QB Vad got series. I expect LJ to get series in the same manner.

Historically we struggle on O when we replace guys up the middle: QB, BB, G-C-G. This year we have QB & BB are more experienced and deeper. With another year and A. Marshall back I like the experience and depth at center. G looks reaonable. AB are set. WR is a questionmark though Stewart and...

AB is often a good landing spot for ATHs we recruit/are giving a shot at QB. I'm not terribly concerned about AB. Lots of good looking young players who have been in the system awhile. Searcy and Lynch have a ton of game reps though, and as we have seen AB is not really "plug n' play". But...

Certainly Taquon can get better. That said--and please note that I did say it--the QB in this offense does not play in a vacuum. He is instructed to avoid turning the ball over by keeping if he has any doubt about a pitch being open. So if the blocking breaks down the QB tends to keep the ball...

When asked who the perfect QB for his system would be CPJ said Tim Tebow. I think you want a guy who has good feet, is quick, can see the field and make the reads, and can throw well enough to make the defense pay for overplaying the run. The bigger, the faster, the more elusive, the more...

Ala, you said nothing about pass pro. JT could throw but looked bad in '15 with poor pass pro. In 14 and 16 we protected well. Not saying TM is great throwing it, only that it is hard to develop when running for your life.

All I know is it's been forever since we had a pass rush. We almost never get sacks. Roof did a good job recruiting to the DT position but not the DE position. St. Amour was about the best he could get, and that was because (IIRC) Stanford dropped him. (BTW, very possible St. Amour makes a jump...

Couldn't help but thinking about the Bulvas kid who flipped to Bama. Apparently couldn't beat out Pappanolus or take over the long range FG duties.

Direction at DT looks good. Not so much at DE. Need DEs who can win 1 on 1's , and need to have a rotation. Unless some of the guys listed above and/or the german and hard hitting overgrown high jumper coming in as frosh on the DE pan out & do so ahead of schedule we are in trouble. Even just...

I thought Marshall looked good at the beginning season, then appeared to regress as attrition hit the offensive line and opposing defenses got tougher. Like JT "regressed" in 2015 after being a stud in 2014. Then he became "good again" in 2016 when the cast around him solidified again. I think...

I have mixed feelings. Logically I can see we had a really tough schedule, and that our depth was lacking. Injuries to key players on the OL and on defense made a big difference to the outcomes of several close games as did well documented bad luck. Mitchell and Gray in my opinion would have...

That's what I call getting the most value out of a scholarship opportunity! Proud of Shamire. Guys like him always make routing for Georgia Tech easy.

I'm also not in favor of playing musical DC's. That said, while Ted has succeeded in improving the DT position he has thusfar failed to find enough DEs. Until he does, his defenses are going to be limited in what they can accomplish. Simmons has been good this year but it's his last. St Amour...

I think we are agonizingly close to being a good team this year as evidenced by the close games we lost. On both sides of the ball we were maddeningly inconsistent. On offense we hit a lot of big plays in the run and pass game. But we usually we weren't consistent enough to sustain long drives...

How good are we? I see us as an inonsistent but talented team that lacks depth and has had to break in a new QB and BB. BB struggled with ball security that really cost us but has gotten much better. QB is immensely talented but has had expected issues with reads. OL and D injuries (Mitchell...

How good would Roof's D be with Clemson's defensive linemen? Pretty good I think. Venables is a great DC to be sure, but folks tend to think if we had him as our DC our D would automatically be awesome. Games are won and lost in the trenches. We have gotten better at DT but rush end has been...

The talent Venables has to work with at Clemson is unbelievable. Ask yozurself how Roof's D would look wiyh Clemson's players.
