BahitsDawg so his dad is indian and mom is black, idk where the white grandmom and aunt come in
Frankly MMCSDAWG Avon Barksdale RB and OL are IMO the hardest position to predict. RB’s can look good in HS and can look good in scrimmages, but when the lights come on and the whistle blows you never know which one of those rb’s are going to thrive in a live game situation. Look at #35 (forgetting name right now) but our resident “G” day warrior that never did anything in a live game. There is a skill that good/great RB’s have that you can’t teach. It’s like they have a 360* line of sight that allows them to set up blocks and always move in the right direction.

Bansai buckeroo I hope so! When does summer practices begin? I can’t seem to remember the exact date.
MMCSDAWG Frankly Avon Barksdale
Not that I think he will start but I am very impressed with what I’ve seen of him and think if he develops, he will have just as good a chance as Holyfield.
@Chief…..tell me about it. July should be better…
Frankly JaxDawg Goes back to my mantra back on the old site… Win, an they will come. Kirby has definitely changed our recruiting program 10 fold, but the ultimate change will come when we win an SEC title and play in the NC, and hopefully win one!
MMCSDAWG JaxDawg
Maybe but the vast majority of his stats were in garbage time against weak competition.
ALPHA!!….
Bansai buckeroo Doing good, trying to pass the next two months as fast as I can!
Bansai buckeroo BANSAI!
JaxDawg
As much as I hate to admit it, TOSU’s recruiting is just unreal this year. They are out “Bama-ing” Bama.
I be lurking…. :-)… How you doing Chief?
Frankly Avon Barksdale Bold prediction, but who knows! I think he will be a contributor for sure next year.

BahitsDawg DawgLink 🙂
Avon Barksdale We probably all said the same thing regarding Keith Marshall and look who surprised us…
Bansai buckeroo Hey Buck! Where you been?
converted 1981 1mandawgpack Greg Poole I think everyone thought Auburn had a QB last year as well! Maybe they do, but history doesn’t bode well for them.
JaxDawg well if he can’t be a Dawg at least he’s not in the SEC!
Holyfield seems the logical choice but who knows….
Avon Barksdale I say Holyfield and we go back to the Moreno and Stafford style of play with heavy throwing
Avon Barksdale holyfield!
1mandawgpack Greg Poole Don’t they actually have a QB for once. If so watch out cause they appear to be loaded at a lot of positions.
Avon Barksdale I am guessing Sony will not turn pro but given the scenario my money would be on Holyfield.
Avon Barksdale Holyfield.
Okay, so just for fun….let’s say we sign Swift and Carter at RB this year. If Chubb and Sony turn pro, who starts game one at tailback in 2017?
BenKellam PTCDawg Good one Ben! You may be right!!
converted 1981 MMCSDAWG AlphaDawg JaxDawg
That would be Lambert and he made the two worst throws in the spring game for sure! I can only give him credit for ball control based on his starts last season. His performance in the spring game was not stellar in my opinion. Which just added fuel to my fire about Eason starting!
PTCDawg I’m pretty sure Cleveland is the 3rd brother.
MMCSDAWG dsw61 BahitsDawg Greg Poole Crossing pattern to a certain TE spread out to the side. Who after making the reception levels one of their LB’s and goes on for a nice gain. Lime up and repeat, totally throw NC into a head spin THEN lower the Chubb BOOM.
MMCSDAWG AlphaDawg JaxDawg Agree with all but ball control. Who was the Only QB to throw a pick in the spring game. A ball that with his experience should have never been thrown. He threw off of his back foot falling backwards to escape the rush – if I remember correctly.
2 more cbs for Akers to Ohio State ugh!
Reading Hucks write up on DaQuan makes me wonder if there are any high school age kids in the Clegane family. :>)
AlphaDawg MMCSDAWG JaxDawg I’m not going to bash Lambert and I really appreciate everything he has done for UGA since arriving on campus last summer, but there is a definite talent level gap between him and Eason/Ramsey. He can overcome the difference with Ramsey based on his experience and ball security, but I don’t think his experience and ball security will overcome the gap between him and Eason. I hope and expect him to be a DGD and help Eason as much as he can. Break down film of all of our SEC opponents from last year. That is where Lambert will be a vital member of the Dawgs this year. Also a reliable and trustworthy back-up in case of injuries. I could be dead wrong, but I really do expect Eason to start the season against UNC and we will rise and fall on his shoulders this season!
MMCSDAWG JaxDawg can’t be much worse
Still can’t believe none of the pundits are writing about the potential for Georgia’s QBs to be more mobile this season under Chaney. It’s probably the biggest thing that was missing in the last two seasons with Mason and Lambert at QB. Murray had it. I’ve always believed that the the QBs that did well under CMR we’re the ones that had enough confidence in themselves to ignore some of what he said. To this day CMR talks about how he didn’t have to tell Murray to do certain things; he just did it. QBs who follow the “stand in the pocket and trust your protection” rule to the extreme; will almost certainly be less productive than the QB who interprets that phraseology as more of a guideline…and doesn’t let it affect his ability to improvise.

DawgLink Yes, it sounds very familiar doesn’t it? Getting ranked super high in preseason with a veteran coach who proved himself before and trying to do it again? Get’s all of the hype from the media and then doesn’t live to expectations.
One of the great defensive minds in our generation has passed away. I’ve always been a defensive player and coach and Buddy Ryan was one of the best DC of all time. RIP coach and thoughts and prayers go out to the family!

1mandawgpack AlphaDawg I’m not even against an Alt jersey for the game. Just give us the silver britches!!
dsw61 BahitsDawg Greg Poole I waiting patiently to see Eason pull out from under center, stick the ball into Chubbs gut, pull it out, reverse pivot, roll slightly to his left, hit one of two targets, either the TE on a 10-12 yards drag pattern or hopefully the WR wide arse open on a deep corner pattern. It’s going to happen and it going to be open! GATA Dawgs!
JaxDawg Carter is a Beast though. On some days, I like Carter over Swift
BahitsDawg Greg Poole One of the senior LBs UNC lost was their leader on defense. He will be hard to replace. LBs are most susceptible to play-action; which is hopefully what we’ll see more of this season.
DawgLink LOL! hotter than a 2 dollar pistol !
Coach still on the hot seat too regardless of media speculation
Damn in my best Friday tone#
Greg Poole I don’t quite understand the love for LSU at the moment as, unless LSU did some major player development in the offseason, the 1 man show that is Fournette won’t get them to the national title game by himself.
1mandawgpack AlphaDawg Nike should do cheerleader outfits.
I imagine a lot of families would get suckered into buying their little girls various Cheer outfits.
Greg Poole Well that was a really good read. Hope Chaney knows this stuff. I like Georgia’s TEs in some of these route concepts.
