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.

    Greg Poole MMCSDAWG I believe that second “Truck” would be cause for ejection in College today.  Better keep that head up and not use it to plow through someone else’s head/helmet.

  3. converted 1981

    BahitsDawg Greg Poole Hard to argue with a Live Tiger…… however which one has been in a Movie and ranked #1 On the Cover of SI?????  Huh, Huh….anybody.  Oh YES that would be UGA!

    Georgia’s three player representatives for SEC Media Days have been announced. Junior tight end http://247sports.com/Player/Jeb-Blazevich-18825, senior center http://247sports.com/Player/Brandon-Kublanow-13749, and junior safety http://247sports.com/Player/Dominick-Sanders-23259 join head coach http://247sports.com/Coach/Kirby-Smart-264 in making the trip to Hoover, Ala. to speak on behalf of the Bulldogs on July 12.

    MMCSDAWG BahitsDawg Hopefully those powerblues are green after they leave the stadium

    BahitsDawg  I agree he didn’t let anyone down. Glad he was just enjoying some downtime and having fun…freak accidents happen, and you cannot just withdraw from life!

    Besides, he earned his spurs with hard work and loyalty to the team long ago!

  10. Greg Poole

    MMCSDAWG Yep, Lambert deserves zero criticism. He has played to the best of his ability and done what was asked of him.

  11. Greg Poole

    MMCSDAWG The answer to your question is, “not now.”  How quickly he learns to block at this level will determine how quickly he sees the field.

  12. MMCSDAWG

    BahitsDawg MMCSDAWG Greg Poole Me too, i have always said I really appreciate everything he has done since his arrival late last summer!  He is a DGD and I haven’t bashed him at all, i just honestly believe there is a significant talent gap between him and Eason and IMO the talent gap will overcome the experience gap.  I hope he helps Eason with his off field preparations.  From all accounts, Lambert is an excellent film study and has an excellent football IQ as a QB, I believe he will be a huge asset for Eason during the game preparations and film study.  If something happens then he will be a reliable and consistent back up.

  14. BahitsDawg

    MMCSDAWG BahitsDawg Greg Poole I am trying to cut back on my Lambert bashing.  He has done what was asked of him and he loves our Dawgs and has sweated and bled for them.

    I just really hope he isn’t the starter on opening day.

  15. MMCSDAWG

    BahitsDawg MMCSDAWG Greg Poole Yep, we would have never seen Lambert in Athens if Bobo stayed.

  16. BahitsDawg

    MMCSDAWG Greg Poole I think we all believe that he would have been the starter last year, had Bobo stayed.

  17. MMCSDAWG

    BahitsDawg MMCSDAWG Right…  Powder Blue might be ok for a basketball team, but it’s not going to cut it on the gridiron!

  18. BahitsDawg

    MMCSDAWG It just doesn’t seem right for football.   I hope our guys aren’t made soft by playing them.

  21. MMCSDAWG

    MidtownTeacher When given Lemons, make Lemonade!!!   Indeed if he were to focus on kicking he might be able to earn quite a good living at it!

  22. MidtownTeacher

    I imagine Brice would never have seen his career going this way, but he could make better money than most of us by being a punter in the NFL.  He also could be one of the best paid punters in the NFL because he is always a threat to execute a good punt fake and defenses will have to always respect the fake making it that much harder to return punts against him.

  24. nolabigdawg

    AlphaDawg Frankly Wow, great video!! Man I miss watching Earl Campbell run, he was an absolute MAN!!

  25. MMCSDAWG

    AlphaDawg Frankly Question is….  Can he Block, if he can pick up a LB he will play, if not, he won’t.  They can all run, but that’s only 1/2 the equation at best!

  26. MMCSDAWG

    Greg Poole He will be on his third OC in 3 years this year and if none of them thought he was good enough to start, then I have to believe they were right..  LOL!    Kid has an arm, but there is MUCH more to being a QB in the upper levels of football than arm strength.

  28. MMCSDAWG

    Greg Poole These are the only words that stuck in my head….

    “If Eason is so clearly the higher-upside option, go ahead and throw him the keys. See what the kid can do.”

    Exactly what I think!  Give him the keys and lets get this Ferrari  started!

  31. AlphaDawg

    Greg Poole MMCSDAWG lol when he broke it I immediately thought it was from horsing around  : }

  32. Greg Poole

    MMCSDAWG I can’t wait to see him and ask him if he now prefers horses to ATVs

  33. MMCSDAWG

    Bulltoad Greg Poole DawgDaddy Right, this is one of those years Auburn will beat someone they aren’t expected to, and I have no confidence in LSU or Tenn.

  34. MMCSDAWG

    Greg Poole  Exactly…   He will be 100% and there is absolutely nothing wrong with him riding an ATV or a horse or whatever this kid wants to ride, accidents happen.  Life is too short to not enjoy it!

  36. Bulltoad

    Greg Poole DawgDaddy Give me over on Auburn, UGA, and Bama.  Give me under on LSU and Tennessee and push on Florida

  44. Greg Poole

    Frankly – Well, if Eason can’t climb to the top of the QB heap in 9 months, it will not be the first time I have been wrong…especially when the heap is not very high.

  45. Frankly

    DawgDaddy Greg Poole

    I think you may be underestimating all that a true FR QB has to learn in order to be competent in college.

  48. MMCSDAWG

    1mandawgpack BahitsDawg Greg Poole Brick by Brick!  I hope they keep Butch.  From what I’ve seen he is a poor gameday coach…

  50. PTCDawg

    MMCSDAWG PTCDawg Thanks. I had seen the rumors of Salyer pulling the trigger with Thomas, but maybe thats all it was. thought I remembered something about Holloman being close but there are so many I probably just confused it with someone else. Appreciate the feedback.
