    Complete speculation but the coaches may have an idea of who they think will emerge and are playing games with UNC so that they have to do some preparation for all 3. I suppose that it’s also very possible that there just hasn’t been any separation in the 3.

  2. 1mandawgpack

    The’re good raw as well. When I was growing up and cropping tobacco during summers, we’d go and pull them up and eat them raw.

    Bulldawg Bob2 haws1178 MMCSDAWG if I had to pick one it would be boiled but I wouldnt say no to any of them…

  4. Greg Poole

    My take away from practice today is the the QB battle is still going on but the OL is close to having a starting group. RG is probably the last truly open spot.
    Kirby mentioned in the presser that they are going to test the QBS with the game plan starting tomorrow. This position will shake out soon.

  5. Bulldawg Bob2

    Greg Poole Yep.
    But Burham is not the first fan out there that thinks that if Coach Smart doesn’t start Eason, he doesn’t know what he is doing.
    Of course, those fans have always existed.
    Fans, along with us in the media, are going to have to get used to the fact that Coach Smart is not going to be coy like CMR was. If he says he doesn’t know, he means what he says. And if he does know, he is very likely to say he knows but he isn’t going to share that info.

  6. 1mandawgpack

    Yes lots of QB experts who can better assess a player’s abilities than the coaches who spend countless hours with these young men throughout the year, including durIng the offseason.

  7. Greg Poole

    rugbydawg79 It is getting close RD79. Patrick Garbin and I were talking about that leaving B-M today. It is going to be an exciting season – many unknowns on the team and in the staff.

  8. Greg Poole

    Bulldawg Bob2 Some guys just tweeted in reply to my tweet that CKS already knows who will start but is not telling us… So, you’re saying he’s lying? People have the strangest ideas about CKS. He is the most straight forward coach ever. If he knew he would say he knew and would say that he is not going to tell UNC who it is. 
    The man has no problem telling us what he thinks or saying he will not talk about certain things.

  9. Bulldawg Bob2

    OT, but haws1178 and MMCSDAWG talking about peanuts down below peaked my curiosity. How do you prefer you peanuts?
    Boiled or roasted?
    Spicy, sweet, salted, or plain?

  10. rugbydawg79

    Greg Poole Bulldawg Bob2 getting close to Watermelon time !  after practice as you pointed out earlier — Do not know when I have been more anxious for a season !!!

  11. Bulldawg Bob2

    EastTXDawg  Not bad news. A lot of prospects put off their announcements once high school football season and school starts.
    He and his family may have a specific date in mind to announce as well.

  12. Greg Poole

    Bulldawg Bob2  Inept, huh? Opening a Twitter account turns people into experts on everything

  13. Greg Poole

    Bulldawg Bob2 Yep. Everything is getting stale. Photos, stories, it is time to see some action.

  14. Bulldawg Bob2

    Greg Poole  No doubt. This is about the time into fall camp when the players are ready to start hitting the opponent and not each other, and the media has beat most every story in preseason to death  by now.

    Listen to the Kirby Smart Press Conference August 24, 2016 on BD Illustrated ON-AIR at SoundCloud

  16. Avon Barksdale

    Yeah it’s interesting. Some guys show up basically All-SEC ready: AJ, Massaquoi, Gibson. Others just seem to get better and better and hit their stride as upperclassmen: Reggie Brown, Sean Bailey, Tavarres King…

  17. Bulldawg Bob2

    Coach Smart he has been dinged up off and on during fall camp. He was dealing with a sprained ankle lately but is practicing

  18. DawgLink

    Gotcha B. I guess it just surprises me is all. We have a good crew of WRs including Chigbu who was not mentioned

  19. Bulldawg Bob2

    DawgLink  10-4. I could be wrong, but I don’t think Godwin is in Smart’s doghouse as much as Reggie Davis and Isaiah McKenzie are stepping up and being leaders as a senior and a junior … which is a good sign. And I think the coaching staff is just pushing Godwin because they realize the potential he has.

  20. Bulldawg Bob2

    1mandawgpack DawgLink Agree about development of WRs out of high school. There is an art to using the hands and arms to get off the LOS against press coverage and to running routes. 
    Coaches are often the hardest on the players they see that have the most potential. With Godwin, he has a ton of potential with his athletic ability and his hands.

  21. RumRunnerDoogie

    1mandawgpack Bulldawg Bob2 and that valdosta guy, the one who was already really small for a OL when he came in
