This is a good and much needed move for UGA. UGA only signed 1 RB in the '25 class. BRob and RRob have missed significant time due to injuries over the last 2 seasons. The RB room has suffered multiple injuries and been depleted during previous seasons. It would not surprise me to see a UGA RB hit the TP. AND UGA grab a RB out of the TP IF 1 of the RB's hit the TP.
By all reports the '26 RB crop is excellent. Expect UGA to add 2 blue chip RB's in the next cycle.
Great news as we can't seem to make it through a year without 2-3-4 RB's getting injured. He's the only one of our starters as of yet who is a homerun threat. I was a little taken aback by Fraziers lack of top end speed, but definitely a jitterbug who can get you 20.
Great news…..when healthy, Etienne can be explosive…for sure potentially explosive but better than all that…TE is a leader and that above all else is what that room needs…..there are 10 DAWG RB's , 2 Jr's, 5 So's, and 3 Fr's all potentially explosive starters….when HEALTHY…Trevor needs to focus on getting and staying100% and be an inspiration to the rest of the room.
He and Frazier back there will be an excellent one-two punch. We will need more healthy RBs next season than we had this past season.
Glad he is coming back but to describe him as “explosive” is a stretch. Nate Fraiser was consistently the more explosive of the two and showed much more elusiveness than Trevor. Hopefully with another year in the system, he can grow into the back that everyone hopes he can be. Also I hope we can get Rod Robinson back healthy next year too. Not sure if Branson will ever make it back.
@UGA66 I hope you don't have a son who plays sports. Do you understand what you just said? Should UGA kick these guys to the curb and move on just because they're injured? Say that to Nick Chubb's face. These are people, not chess pieces.
great news.
let’s start feeding those o linemen and teach them how to maul folks. I wanna see our opponents quit. I don’t feel like we saw that in a single game this year in stark contrast to years past.
Trevor returning is huge for UGA. The Robinsons not so much.. Do not know what they will do.They are injury prone. Kirby needs to get that one big back from the portal. Then, as has been noted, beef up the Oline.
In my opinion, UGA needs a steady duo of running backs, who can help take some pressure off the quarterback while the learning process takes place. In addition, the offense needs to get back to prioritizing the tight end short game both of those should open up the deep threat that the wide receiver room should be able to offer. Then hopefully the offense can once again become explosive that was missed in 2024.
Defensive still needs a lot of assistance.
I agree all the way around !! Great to see him coming back !! And yes please fix the O Line !!
