Please. This happens to Bama and OSU every year. They must have terrible coaches! All that's going on is that we are getting better. Expect next year that Thomas, Wilson and maybe our starting RG leave early. That I guess means that Pittman is a bad coach also.
I should not be surprised by the reaction from our fan base over guys going to the NFL, but just when I thought I had heard it all, now somehow our OC is the reason our players are "going to the NFL"! The reason they are going to the NFL is to GET PAID! Their dreams of playing in the NFL are stronger than their desire to play another year at Georgia! Does that really surprise anyone! Also, you get rid of Channey and you can kiss Sam Pittman Good Bye! Please stop overreacting to every decision 19 and 20-year-old young men are making!
Yeah I feel you. Its all circumstantial. The juniors that came back last year were running backs and defensive guys. Our offense will always feature running backs, not so much receivers, which is why we are seeing 3 of them leave. Not sure holyfield can have that much better of a year as a senior, he's fresh, he needs to use all the tread he has left in the NFL. We knew chubb had more in the tank and didn't show full potential his junior year and it was always the same type feeling with sony with nagging injuries and never had a chance to be fully featured until his senior season. They both had more to gain by coming back.
I think it was a realistic look at the Georgia receiver core. At the end of the year Jeremiah Holloman was starting in front of Hardman and Ridley and Tyler Simmons was playing as much as either of them. If it looked like any of Demetris Robertson, Kearis Jackson, Tommy Bush Jr. and Matt Landers were also pushing for and increased role. They may have thought this is my year and I need to make the best of it.
Theyre going early... when each of these guys outside of nauta would increase their draft grades tremendously. Which in turn, pays more money. In my mind the only juniors that should really leave is a 1st or maybe a 2nd round pick. Beyond that, it pays big to come back.
Wonder if the timing orchestrated from Coach Kirby. Get it all over with instead of a slow bleed. Also news out early to work on finishing class with > #s.
These guys were ready to follow their dreams. All will be drafted and it's next man up.
I agree, just bothering me theyre all offensive guys and a big hit at the receiving core.
if Chaney is the problem i am sure they will get him out of there
It won't hurt us 1 bit next season.we still have size and speed in the group.we'll miss Maura more than the other guys.and maybe 1-2 changes their minds and come back.
I happen to wonder if the timing of all the offensive guys have anything to do with a certain person that decides his future tomorrow. Maybe saying, here’s your chance to come in and have one of those spots if your as good as advertised.
I tried telling you guys after the SECCG that it was Chaney.
They didn't believe me back in October when I told them that Fields was leaving.
I'm thinking Chaney's play calling. Our exceptional talent has made him look good but the goal line issues this year really exposed him as a offensive genius fraud.
Unless you’re a first round pick, the money isn’t that significant. What you really want is to get to the second contract (non rookie contract) as soon as possible and, if you’re a rb, as few of miles as possible. Basically, if these guys didn’t think they could become first round picks (didn’t have the measurables, which are hard to change or whatever) it can still make sense to go the league early.
