Greg Poole Doubt Smart is happy with that. Need quality depth, now go fill it.
I wonder if the NCAA will also eliminate some of the teams like SC and FLA ? I would be all for that. Maybe they can force nick Saban to retire early. So other teams in the sec will have more of a better chance to win conference
Greg Poole That seems high to me, too.
Greg Poole revtizzy freaking rainman
Dang!!!!! Hahahahaha

That’s true
Shoot, make it flag football! If they did, I honestly would quit watching it then! We wouldn’t look right without those red helmets with a G
Bulldawg36 They get paid. NCAA just ignore tuition, room, board, clothing, computer, medical, dental, eye care, cash stipend and other goodies. Amateurism my butt.
It’s a volunteer job, but heck players may get paid in the future. I wouldn’t rule it out
This is behind the pay wall but the number is in the tweet:

It’s a job where you don’t get paid!!!!!!!!
Heck make it Rugby.####

A key thing to know about special teams is that these 11-man units are typically on the field for about 20 percent of the plays in a football game.

Greg Poole Bulldawg36 LOL! Get paid for working a “job”…
revtizzy Bulldawg36 Eliminating Kickoffs changes the game. It would not be American Football without special teams and kickoffs. The effects on the game are too numerous and there is nothing that I’ve read thus far that makes sense to me as a replacement.
I totally agree with reducing the effects of long term CTE and I too believe that eveything should be done to minimize the risks in football, but I’m not for changing the fundamentals of the game. Is one collision at high speed worse that repeated blows that a DL or OL face on every single down. There is much to learn about this condition and I am hopeful that we can continue to minimize the risks, but I do not want to fundamentally change the game of football.
MMCSDAWG I say 25% yes win the SEC East – 75 % no.
BahitsAgain DawgByte tmdawg12 hahahaha
Bulldawg36 “Job” will make NCAA cringe.
Well people know the dangerous of the game. No matter how much they eliminate people will still get injured. Heck people can get injured or killed on most jobs. If people scared then don’t play.
revtizzy — I’m sure it does not ’cause I just tapped keys at random.
Greg Poole MMCSDAWG lol…I’m not sure the math works out on that, but math isn’t my strong point
MMCSDAWG 69.783625634 and 29.86764345576
MMCSDAWG 71% & 29%
Ok… We are now less than a week away from the start of the 2016 season preparations… based on everything we actually know at this particular time, which isn’t much! lol. There are a ton of questions going into the season. What is your percentage chance that UGA has of winning the SEC east? and the SEC?
Mine are 70% and 30%. I know I’m an optimist Dawgshine drinking, red glasses wearing Dawg fan. but I feel our chances of winning the SECe are pretty darn good! We might not be ready to beat Alabama in the Championship game, but I believe by October we will be ready to beat the UTk inbreeds between the hedges and Kirby KNOWS how important JAX is and I look forward to a MUCH better result during Kirby’s tenure!
On the ‘special team produce more injuries’ meme, I’d like to see some numbers on it. On Mike and Mike yesterday it was reported that 13% of injuries come on ST play. Sounds high, but what percentage of total plays constitute ST play? It could be 13% or more. Remember, every three and out bumps up the ST average.
Bulldawg36 I’d be okay with eliminating kickoffs, honestly. It is an exciting element to the game, but if football doesn’t deal more effectively with the reality of CTE through rule changes or better equipment, then I think we will eventually lose more than kickoffs. I could be wrong.
If they eliminate kick offs then I hope cfb loses ratings. Because next ya know they want put flags on people
DawgLink I have no problem with the transfers if the parents live in the district. Last I heard none of the transfers are “permissive” transfers. Coach Herron said recently that Grayson Athletic Director Brian DeBerry investigated to ensure that all the players that transferred, did so legally. The main GHSA requirements are that they move with a guardian into a new residence in the school district and relinquish their former residence.
Here is Rush Propst’s take:
“I don’t think there’s much you can do about it. You can’t punish those kids and make them sit out. That’s not what scholastic athletics is all about. What’s the difference in making them sit out a math class, a science class, an English class? Parents are going to put their kids in the best program.’’
Colquitt County HS QB Chase Parrish, moved with his family from Thomasville to Colquitt County in eighth grade because, “he wanted to play in a program that can showcase his talent.’’ So Propst knows of what he speaks.
tmdawg12 I love it!
IYH_BI I posted that here last week. He is suspended from the team for 6 weeks. That is not his game suspension.
Richt was a special teams ace when we had John Fabris. After he was fired richt didn’t care about special teams anymore
1Dawg under God Morning 1DuG
tmdawg12 Good morning tm
MMCSDAWG Well if that is eliminated he has less coaching to do and in an area he didn’t do well anyway, makes sense to me.
He said that years ago
IYH_BI MMCSDAWG Right!
MMCSDAWG IYH_BI Greg Poole Agreed.
MMCSDAWG Haha. I’m surprised it wasn’t “I would have no problem with eliminating special teams”
deltonadawg Morning dd
Does this surprise anyone?? WTH, I guess if you can’t fix it just get rid of it. Little disappointed in CMR in this instance.

Greg Poole Morning Greg!
Greg Poole IYH_BI I thought his discussion of Ledbetter and the media’s focus on his suspension was interesting. Interesting that he is not with the team, not working out with the team, etc. Be interesting to see if he is in uniform on August 1st.
DawgByte tmdawg12 An https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1JPGB_enUS645US645&espv=2&biw=1680&bih=965&q=images+amoeba&spell=1&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj3hpbTs5HOAhUB2SYKHScXAZ0QvwUIGSgA with a Trump hair do.
DawgByte tmdawg12 Ick, I totally agree. Looks like they had a 12 year old hand paint it.
IYH_BI Greg Poole He shouldn’t be playing college football at Oklahoma… IMO. His actions if accurately describe by those who have seen the surveillance videos are correct. He should have been dismissed.
Sooo IYH_BI , anything surprise you in Kirby little presser yesterday?
AlphaDawg dawgmum Greg Poole Herring seems to only be a matter of time. I’m very interested to see what Lawrence is going to decide. That is going to be a fascinating choice.
IYH_BI >> Yep. That’ll be a costly punch.
