Greg is closing in on 15 years writing about and photographing UGA sports. While often wrong and/or out of focus, it has been a long, strange trip full of fun and new friends.

    Kudos to the BI team for bringing Huck on board. Excellent resource and I am looking forward to seeing his work here. And no, I am not related to him in any way. :>)

    Lucas Rogers Had Boom said anything else I’d be mad at him. I hope he learned enough here to know to play the fan base.

    dsw61 AlphaDawg I hear ya. Always the hardest workout to get motivated for because you know the next 3 days are going to be the worst 3 days ever. LOL But typically if I stay doing them consistently, I’m not as sore afterwards.

    MMCSDAWG Lucas Rogers Just gotta outta class an hour early so Monday is going good so far lol

    PatriotVeteran AlphaDawg Holloman is worth the fight and Kirby will give UT just that. Like bob was hinting, a lot of players come off hype when they leave a visit. Holloman has been to UGA many times and a good example of this would be Hardman. This time last year UT was his leader and favorite, but he ended up a Bulldog.

    MMCSDAWG dsw61 IMO, Jacob is our future at UGA.    Great players want to play with other great players and New Recruits are hoping to play for UGA, so set the example that if you WANT to play for UGA: Commit.    If you WANT to compete to play against a top quality team player, come prepared to compete.      If you WANT to be better prepared to play in the Fall, than think of becoming an Early Enrollee so you have time to learn the Playbook, get physically prepared and compete in the Spring Gday and have more time to get use of the college classes.         Great players usually watch the football teams they want to play for on Saturday, it’s not normally a last minute decision.     If you’re ready, if you want to play for UGA, don’t wait for someone else to Commit to the G and fill your slot.    Hopefully the Class of 2017 will fill all their slots before the first game this 2016 season and show your support for the Coaches that spend days and days trying to recruit the best.     The BEST should COMMIT TO THE G    –      GO DAWGS

    AlphaDawg IMO, any player from Georgia that would even consider AU or UT is not someone we really must have.      We have a lot of great WR’s WANTING to play for UGA and hopefully with Eason.      Unless a player WANTS to play for UGA and UGA wants the player, than let them be.      CKS and staff will find someone that will fill the slots for 2017 and they need players that really, really want to play for the DAWGS.   UGA will become the play to play in college football.    GO DAWGS       COMMIT TO THE G

    MMCSDAWG dsw61 I also think it comes down to Ramsey or Eason.  Lamberts inabiltiy to move and be a playmaker probably makes him least likely despite his experience.  I don’t see this coaching staff playing it safe at the QB position.  It is important for Ramsey to become a leader because it makes it easier for Eason to follow him and become a leader as well.  Buck Belue made a good point that Eason has to earn the job.  He cannot be handed anything.  Based on some of the comments from Saturday it sounds like Eason has started to do that.

  24. Bulldawg Bob2

    DawgByte MMCSDAWG dsw61 Don’t pay too much attention to what group the QBs are running with, especially during the short time media has to look at the players in practice. Everybody is being rotated around.

    But I think Eason’s situation will evolve similar to how Stafford’s did in 2006 where we see Skinny being eased into the starting role if he is ready.

  25. DawgByte

    CLTDawg DawgByte MMCSDAWG dsw61 You guys may very well be right. I’ve got to retire from the prediction business.

  26. CLTDawg

    AlphaDawg CLTDawg I think TL makes the first move, and then EJ reacts off of that. If TL picks UT (which is still the lean, probably), we gotta be all over EJ and keep him out of Gainesville.

  27. CLTDawg

    DawgByte MMCSDAWG dsw61 Gotta remember though, Eason was starting from zero. Would be very hard for any QB to jump up through only 9 or so practices. The race will go all the way down to the end of fall camp, IMO. 

    I think Lambert gets the nod initially, unless Brice finally turns the lightbulb on. Eason will be phased in over the course of the season regardless.

  35. MMCSDAWG

    DawgByte Bansai buckeroo 100% agreee…  If bobo were still in Athens Ramsey or Park would have started last season and most likely it would have been Ramsey.

  36. MMCSDAWG

    DawgByte MMCSDAWG dsw61 I believed Kirby when he stated he didn’t want to put the pressure on Eason and part of that is being deliberate in his preparations and expectations.  Right now, we have pretty good access to the practices and scrimmage info as well.  I suspect that will change come summer/fall camps.  I know we love the info and I know we will be cringing at the thought of less, but if wouldn’t surprise me to see CKS pretty much shut it down as we approach the season.  During the summer let’s see who is taking the reps with the 1’s and 2’s…  I still believe Ramsey is the wildcard, and I believe Eason starts game 1.  Especially if #27 is healthy and starting!

  39. Bulldawg Bob2

    Colonial Dawg Sic’em! Colonial. Aye. And it’s already April 2016 to boot. This year is flying by.

  41. DawgByte

    Bansai buckeroo Completely agree buckeroo. Ramsey has the physical tools, but lacks the killer QB mentality. If he had the mental aspect, he would have started last year and not Lambert.

  43. DawgByte

    MMCSDAWG dsw61 … with Eason running the 3’s halfway through Spring drills, it’s hard to imagine he can leap frog the two more experienced QB’s in time to start the NC game.

    We’ve got a significant issue still at that position and I suspect we will for at least half the season.

  45. MMCSDAWG

    Bulldawg Bob2 MMCSDAWG It was a beautiful day here as well.  Not too hot and lower humidity!

  47. MMCSDAWG

    Bansai buckeroo Right!  Like I said before, I’m predicting Eason as the Game 1 starter, but Ramsey is the Wildcard.

  48. Bulldawg Bob2

    MMCSDAWG Bulldawg Bob2 Thanks MMCS, and wow! Sounds like a nice Sunday with the fam. It was a beautiful spring day yesterday. I got a ton of yard work done.

  49. Bulldawg Bob2

    AlphaDawg He just came off a visit there. Similar to how we had several players name Georgia their leader after visiting this past week and weekend.
