Greg Poole Better than Athlon. They ranked our DL 47th in the nation and 11th in the SEC. They had us below San Diego State, Temple, and several other mid majors.
tmdawg12 He cheats!
tmdawg12 me and you face off in the first game on Hobnailboot aka RobG FF league this year.
I’ll try to go easy on you ####
WillieWalden Dude, probably on one of his first trip away from South Georgia, run into a world class salesman and bites. Fortunately, he has an unlimited right of rescission. His Mother referred to his commitment as “soft” from the day it happened.
Greg Poole That’s okay, they’ll think more about our front 7 after we put a butt spank on UNC.
Good looking kid…hope you are right..
ESPN does not think much of Georgia’s front 7
10. Georgia: With six starters gone from last year’s front seven, there’s a lot of inexperience. Defensive tackle http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/3915192/trenton-thompson is the lone returning starter and the Bulldogs will need him to lead the way up front. http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/546321/john-atkins and http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/3915178/daquan-hawkins both return with some playing time experience from last season. http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/546322/davin-bellamy and http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/3128715/lorenzo-carter will be counted upon at outside linebacker; http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/3728310/natrez-patrick and http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/3915189/roquan-smith will likely play significant roles inside.

Oh ok.. Hadn’t heard that… We’ll see… Don’t like how quick Michigan was able to get the commitment… Must’ve been one hell of a educational briefing given
Greg Poole Redshirting OL is the preferred choice. If it’s going to help him reach his potential I’m all for it.
WillieWalden They are not going to bother with him, they are going to flip him. Follow what his mama says.
DawgByte LiveFyre is a big company and we have zero input nor any access to make suggestions. The nice thing with BurnZone is that we could talk with the owners – they just didn’t have the capital to get everything fixed quickly enough for me to continue with them.
A little early lunch time jam

Here’s the case for Ramsey

WillieWalden He has also said he has left the door open … and he is listening to what Georgia, Coach Smart and Coach Rocker are selling. We will see though.
Looks like J. Fromm is holding M. Herring to their bet! lol

WillieWalden Too good to ignore and if he wants to come on campus what’s the problem? If he shows up in Michigan stuff, send him home, I don’t believe he will though. There is still a LONG way to go in his recruitment. Keep recruiting him and let’s see where he ends up.
I just read that Solomon plans to be on campus a lot this year but I keep hearing how solid he is to Michigan.. the way he committed to Michigan all of a sudden not sure I would bother with him going forward
Bansai buckeroo
Linda like the “definition of EXPERT! An Ex is a has been and a sPERT is a drip under pressure!
MMCSDAWG Greg Poole converted 1981 Bleudawg BahitsAgain
Yes it is Philips Arena, I actually worked on it during construction. Got to meet many many great NBA Players. Magic was the BEST. Stopped and talked to me for 5 minutes with Stan Kasten (I think) pulling on his elbow the hole time. Never took his eyes off of me while we talked. Bird was the most obnoxious. Actually got pissed I “Caught” him and got his autograph. They would completely close all of the curtains for their practices, anyone caught peeking in was terminated immediately. Reggie Miller was an ARSE. Shaq, Koby ……. long list.
Greg Poole DawgByte I wonder if this platform could support putting point totals on the front page?
dentaldawg DawgByte Greg Poole Bam!
Bleudawg lol
Bleudawg Nope, Mine has been going year round and will graduate this coming June with her BSN from FAU. She doesn’t turn 21 until the end of this month! I wish I had 3 others just like her! Unfortunately, her brothers have been a constant battle…lol!
Colonial Dawg Greg Poole Same of the Belue to Scott pass in 1980. I was listening in the car, Munson broke his chair and it took him about 3 minutes to say whether Georgia scored or not. Stadium was half and half so I could not tell by the cheering if he scored or was tackled. I actually pulled off the interstate and was yelling at my radio!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anyone else totong a kid back to college this weekend? Im depressed just thinking about all those stairs.
Colonial Dawg Greg Poole goose bumps
Greg Poole converted 1981 Bleudawg BahitsAgain I still refer to the arena downtown as the Omni when talking about concert…lol What is it? Phillips arena? Omni was my stomping ground back in the day, I had a GF who’s dad worked for the promotions company and I had a job as an usher working at the omni and Fox. It was CRAZY back in the 70’s! I didn’t have to smoke a thing and would leave high as a kite!
DawgByte Greg Poole I was there. Had a fat Clemson fan sitting behind me who had been running his mouth all day. He was saying” It’s over. Y’all are beat. Noboby can kick a FG from there.” He grabbed his seat cushion and hauled ass when Butler made the kick.
converted 1981 Greg Poole Bleudawg BahitsAgain I NEED that way back machine !
Greg Poole rugbydawg79 and probably 4 years of HS . Didnt he mostly play DT? Im sure ben is fine firing off the ball against a predetermined target. Pass pro and zone blocking may be problematic at this point. When he get to play using his brain stem only he will be good. The game is just to fast for someone w/ his experience level.
Bleudawg Greg Poole Touring Rugby teams have a policy -if you pass out in public without declaring your space –The eyebrows get shaved -it is not a good look
Bleudawg MMCSDAWG I don’t know this to be true, but I imagine that the first thing Pittman told him is that he needs to redshirt.
MMCSDAWG Bleudawg Greg Poole I think hes an OG long term and we are fine at that position. Just dont let him get to discouraged. Hes athletic and will “get it” in due time
rugbydawg79 What is the difference between Catalina and Cleveland? 5 years of age, 4 years of college position training and S&C.
If you missed Jake Fromm and Houston County’s performance against Mary Persons last night in the Corky Kell Classic or couldn’t get it in your area, here are some the highlights.

Greg Poole Now THAT is funny!
Greg Poole He’s a pro already and knows how to handle the press. He did a great job!!!
Bleudawg Greg Poole Exactly, Bleu, He will be fine and a RS should not be frowned upon in this case. He will be a contributor, but he needs to develop his craft! He played more DL than OL at Stephens Co.
Bleudawg Correct. He needs it badly. I was afraid that Georgia’s depth problems might force them to use him this year, but I’m feeling better about his chances of getting a much needed year to mature and learn.
BahitsAgain Bulldawg Bob2 No one wants to leave Athens -are you kidding- he is enjoying the best years of his life — Leave Athens ? God I wish I could go back.
Greg Poole converted 1981 Bleudawg BahitsAgain
Yea, I could see that. Omni huh, that is going waaaay back. Did you have Mr. Peabody with you on that trip?

Greg Poole man he needs to redshirt. hes young and very very raw. he barely played the position in HS
Greg Poole The last part gets my blood flowing and my Dawg shine brewing! Kirby is doing a LOT of things right!
“Like Kirby says when he breaks down practice, ‘I’m brutally honest with you guys,’” Bellamy said. “He’ll say today was a good practice, today was a bad. He just shoots it forward. You have no choice but to like a coach who will keep it real.”
converted 1981 Bleudawg BahitsAgain The incident I saw occurred at Stone Mountain Park after a Dead show at the Omni. That could account for it.
Greg Poole He is very young
Bulldawg Bob2 BahitsAgain i think he will end up playing some this year. I think he ends up 2nd string.
Kirby pulls no punches

converted 1981 Bleudawg BahitsAgain Greg Poole good strategy….drunk scouting is not a good look. lol
BahitsAgain There is always a possibility, but I think he sticks around to finish his time here at Georgia. I could be wrong though.
