No detail is too small and I love that he expects perfection in everything that is practiced. We may see the team get beaten by a better opponent, but I don’t expect to see us lose games because we’re unprepared as has happened in the past.

AM is such a DGD. Hopefully he can help mentor this group and help them understand what it takes to be successful and a leader.
Greg Poole
Ignot – Google him and post the hudl highlight – I’m trying to get some photos and vids processed – he is very good
Brooklyndawg
Naturally, hence my winning YOLO…..

Brooklyndawg They’re going to go with the guy who makes the least amount of mistakes and can take command of the offense.
Brooklyndawg
Exactly that, Eason would not start the UNC game.
DawgByte
RumRunnerDoogie Greg Poole Hopefully a 5 star that commits to the G soon!
Greg Poole DawgByte I’ll Yolo that with yeah. I don’t see it happening. We have to remember that Eason did not compete against great athletes, so it’s going to take him while to master progressions at SEC speed.
Bansai buckeroo
Making up for all those years Saben wouldn’t let him say anything….. 🙂
Greg Poole
DawgByte I’m sticking with my Eason starts against UNC prediction. Of course, I don’t care if I’m wrong…I’s used to it.
DawgByte
Brooklyndawg What was the Yolo?
Brooklyndawg
You have some strange preconceived notions, island boy. But, wth, no stats??? And this is going to carry over to the spring game as well?
DawgByte
Bansai buckeroo No doubt. Machine gun speaking style.
Brooklyndawg
Dang, I won this YOLO!!!#
Bansai buckeroo
No…more like he’s had about 20 cups of coffee…haha
DawgByte
Bearbuddy Jacob looks like the S&C program is doing wonders for him.
For a southern guy, Kirby speaks a 100 mph….quite a change from Richt….. 🙂

I think the DawgNation better be prepared to be disappointed if you were hoping Eason would be the starter going into the NC game. Sounds like he won’t even be starting for G-Day.

BahitsDawg RumRunnerDoogie DawgByte if pittman works his magic he will be a first rounder
RumRunnerDoogie DawgByte Cleveland will destroy many a defense in coming years. I bet he becomes our number one run behind guy.

If Kirby’s biggest complaint is managing the huddle and defensive substitution, I am very happy.

BahitsDawg Maybe that’s why Coach Smart is attempting to get 93K fans at the April 16th Scrimmage, to get use to the large crowds, cameras and lights. But they won’t freeze up when they see the 93K – IMO- the players will play twice as hard and make plays they haven’t made in practice. It’s like if someone hits you, you strike back and don’t even feel the pain on yourself, LOOK MOM, YOU SHOULD SEE THE OTHER GUYS. haha, the pain doesn’t go away. GO DAWGS – – – the fans will have your back.

Have you guys caught practice video and seen the dude wearing #74? Holy smokes is Cleveland big!!!
Hobnailboot aka RobG
MidtownTeacher Bulldawg36 his INT numbers are extremely skewed, there were several times this past season where the D had the ball hit them in the hands but they fortunately dropped it, had just half of those been caught he would have had double digit INT’s………..but I always say I’d rather be lucky than good

Bulldawg36 I’m watching. 🙂
Bulldawg36
9-2!!! Hahahahahaha
Bulldawg36
Diamond dawgs putting another whipping on Alabama!!!!!! Heck yeah!!!!!!
Bulldawg36
True, but against a weak schedule. He’s a below average qb…that can have a few good games but not consistently. We need a qb that can be more consistent and can throw the ball down the field if we are gonna win the east
rugbydawg79
Bulldawg36 The guy only went 10-2 with a not so good OL and lack of wide receivers and injured Nick Chubb
Bulldawg36
More probably cause lambert has to play it safe and conservative. He is not talented enough to throw ball down the field. I just don’t see us winning the east with him as our qb. Hope he proves us all wrong.
Bulldawg36
Name one sec team that would want him?
Greg Poole
Sorry for the late report but I stopped by the gymnastics boosters club tailgate to take a few pics and eat a GIANT smoked brisket sandwich…
Anyway, we only got to watch pre-scrimmage drills. *yawn* I can say that the team and coaches seemed fired up for the scrimmage – lots of energy during the warm-up drills.

BahitsDawg I’m not defending Lambert, but it’s pretty hard to throw the ball when the OL is average at best, we had an average rushing attack after Chubb went out (refer to previous reference to OL), we had an OC that either didn’t use the few weapons he had successfully or was told by Richt to keep running the offense that Bobo ran the second half of the previous season (i.e., large doses of Chubb), and absent MM, we had below average WR play. During the Florida game when Bauta was QB, two of his interceptions were caused by very poor routes by the WR (one was Godwin and the other was McKenzie – which is what happens when athletes are forced into playing WR) where, instead of finding the open space in the defense (which is where Bauta threw the ball), they kept drifting back into coverage. On the incomplete pass to Rome that would have been a TD, again Bauta put the ball where Rome should have been (as there was no safety in the middle of the field) and instead, Rome ran a flag route that would have taken him directly into CB coverage (so if Bauta would have thrown the pass based on the pattern that Rome ran, it would have been another pick). So, I’m going to wait and pass judgment on whoever our QB is this year as all of the above would be difficult for Tom Brady or Aaron Rogers to overcome. I realize that Lambert didn’t have a stellar career at UVA either, but a lot of the issues I describe above were also present on that team as well. Let’s see what happens when our team actually gets some coaching this year.

Jesse1 Greg Poole I didn’t do football, I did cross country and track in HS, college and after. I always worked hard in practice. However, there were other guys who, at least at the HS and college level, who had super talent and could be a bit lazy on their practice runs but go out and win in races. Pissed me off greatly because I had to earn it the hard way and they had all this God given talent that they didn’t use to the fullest, but they could still pull a 4:10 mile with minimal practice effort.
BahitsDawg
MidtownTeacher Bulldawg36 There were many times where I counted to 5 one thousand and he still didn’t have anyone near him. The line did a lot better than many give them credit for.
CLTDawg
Bulldawg36 Lambert was average. Not good, not great, but not completely awful either. A few SEC teams might like to have him on their roster.
MidtownTeacher
Bulldawg36 The thing is though, Lambert was extremely good at not throwing interceptions and I would postulate that this is more important in the SEC than throwing deep downfield bombs. Lambert is a game manager, and he managed to not throw that many interceptions despite not having a lot of time given the OL coaching.

Bulldawg36 I watched most of the game. Two huge errors by Bama cost them. Bama has typical college level pitching, which is mostly mediocre. Robert Tyler pitched a great game. Not sure how accurate the radar guns are, but he was supposedly hitting upper 90s with his fastball in the early innings. Georgia has what I would call a scrappy team. They have lots of talent, but whoever is teaching them how to hit is not maximizing their potential. When you dig into the offensive stats it’s clear why this team will struggle against quality pitching. Not the players fault; they have to do what the coaches demand or they will be deemed not coach-able and sit the bench. On the flip side, Georgia will be competitive in any game that Tyler starts, because many of the hitters on the other teams don’t have great hitting mechanics either. Unlike college football, most of the top HS baseball players sign with pro baseball teams right out of HS…and it shows. It’s a totally different dynamic.
