I was very happy to see that Coach Smart brought in some coaching talent for the O line.

As a side note, we aren't in the same world where teams have 4 people deep on the depth chart. If someone has talent, but not playing, they will jump to another school. I think it's time for kirby to dial back the physical scrimages somehow. Most teams aren't even having spring practices. We just had a starting lineman go down. I know he believes in the physical nature of practices, and his mentor preached that. But times have changed, and Saban left for that reason. Part of the reason we had a tough year were all the injuries. Before I get jumped on, I know the previous way was the best way, but we just don't have the luxury of playing 3rd string. In some cases, 3rd string is a baby just out of high school.

I have faith that the current talent in our O-Line will quickly mature and jell with the veterans and newbies working off each other to form a "technique" driven hole opening, QB protecting unit. I have even more faith that our RB "youngsters" will likewise grow up fast…..the burning question I continue to have is what exactly is the medical issues with the Robinsons? Do they just heal slowly, are they injury prone, is it something they are doing or not doing??? They both have talent to be 1k plus RB's but that will never happen if they never take the field.

Just keep them away from the DODGE dealership and this group of WRs can be something special.

We didn't have possession receivers last year after we lost Colbie Young, who is back and looking good. Noah Thomas and CJ Wyley standing next to Colbie make an impressive group of big, tall receivers. Between them, there will be guys who can go up and get the ball in a clutch situation.

@Chief ACCPD hasn’t given UGA players (or students for that matter) a break since the Dooley era. I can assure you if he wasn’t sober as a judge he would have been charged accordingly. In most sec towns these things are swept under the rug. Doesn’t mean it’s not dangerous…just the reason why you don’t see the same stories coming out of Tuscaloosa or Baton Rouge.

@PlateauDawg I am born and raised Athens with a few degrees from UGA as well. I have done **** things in my time here, but have never been arrested by the police. It is not the police (and I don't like policeman in general), it is the person doing the wrong thing. The football players need to be humble and hardworking with focus. Incidents like these tell me some (definitely not all) think they are God's gift to Athens. No excuses. Take responsibility for your actions.

I'm not nearly as concerned about the RB room as I am about the OL room. We have to have dominance at the LOS or everything else is a moot point.
