    haws1178 Florida drives are the worst. They don’t know what it means to travel 65 miles an hour. They’re lucky to hit 45.

    Bulldawg36 I’m not scared… I think we’ve upgraded. I loved Richt, but the more time and distance has made me realize we needed a change. The one thing that has me a bit squeamish is the Offensive play calling. I’m praying Chaney isn’t vanilla and predictable.

    Red Dawn The word out of the hometown is that he has been busting his butt in the weight room!

  5. Bulldawg36

    It’s crazy! When you think about it. A whole new coaching staff for the first time in 15 years. It’s. Kind of scary and exciting!!!!!

  6. DawgByte

    Bulldawg36  Yes, it’s time to get Medieval on our opponents!!!! I no longer want to see us let off the gas. If there’s 45 seconds left to go in the game and we’re on the opponents 5 yard line and we’re up by 10 points, I still want to see us punch it in!!

    I went through Gainesville last Friday and hated every single mile of it it sucked. Bunch of nondriving folks around there

    RumRunnerDoogie Red Dawn I was concerned about Woerner being moved to TE, because I thought he’d be more effective as a slot receiver. After seeing pictures of him, he’s clearly a TE and a large one at that.

    1mandawgpack Greg Poole DawgByte It it looks to me if Smart went to the S&C coaches and said, “Pack on some muscle and weight.”

  23. DawgByte

    Greg Poole RobDawg I also thought it was interesting that Big Country got singled out for his excellent play yesterday. I would not be surprised if he doesn’t win one of the OG positions at some point during the season.

  27. Greg Poole

    RobDawg  I have a photo of Hardin with Catalina in the frame (for size comparison). I think Hardin will get some PT this year, maybe Madden also. They are just more evidence that being big does not get one on the field as an offensive lineman — contrary to popular opinion.

    Greg Poole DawgByte  I guess it’s always hard for a staff to know the correct mix of strength vs. conditioning.  It’s obvious from player comments and photos that the staff focused more on the former this year, while the former staff focused more on the latter given our depth issues.  I’m guessing that the current staff will attempt to use more players this year and substitute more freely based upon circumstances (e.g., down and distance, etc.), but we don’t have the depth that CKS had grown accustomed to at ‘Bama.  So I just hope that the focus on strength wasn’t completely at the expense of conditioning, particularly given that the early part of the season is played in hot conditions which will drain the players more quickly.

    The end of the footage showing the large glass sections splintering are telling. Those weren’t spring loaded toys but fairly powerful to be able to make the whole pane be affected like that. A bit more than dented ceiling tiles

  35. 1mandawgpack

    converted 1981  What kind of fish is that?  Looks like a variety of bass, but I can honestly say I’ve never seen coloring and fins (i.e., rounded tail, etc.) like that on a bass.

  36. Greg Poole

    DawgByte  Yeah, last year Sam Madden looked huge – yesterday, I didn’t notice him. Maybe he was not there but my point is that you are right – OL size has changed for the bigger, for sure, and hopefully better

  38. DawgByte

    Good morning all.
    Boy I sure noticed a significant difference in the size of our OL. This S&C coaching staff has pumped those dudes up. They look more like a Bama line than the more recent UGA OL’s we’ve seen. These guys are huge!

  44. Bulldawg36

    That made me think about that hard hit he put on that gator WR in 97. Kirby made the most of his talent in his playing days. He was always good at being in the right spot

  45. Red Dawn

    From EC’s photos it looks like David Marshall bulked up enough good weight to be a true DL. Woerner, Nauta and Holyfield all look SEC ready too.
