    Great points but lets look at the body of work for the last decade. It is also a lot easier to field a team that played Rutgers, Maryland, Illinois, Indiana, Nebraska, Northwestern and company than any team that makes it out of the SEC and to postseason play.

    His old coaches and current qb coach say the pre-snap/film room study is his strong suit. Hopefully it’s true!

    Fromm had a much better supporting cast around him?!? This was by far the worst receiving group I can remember in the last 20 yrs. The amount of dropped passes that hit square in hands was remarkable (6 in SEC championship), bad routes, and routes recievers quit running. Majority of blame goes on Hankton and Coley for 0 development.

    People forget Fromm is the only QB in UGA history to go to 3 SEC championships! He stepped up in ND, OK, AU, and uf games. His presnap reads saved bad Chaney and Coley play calls. Sorry for the rant....just tired of ignorant fans who only look at the football on the field and not the whole game.

    Newman's deep throw accuracy, couple with the speed receivers we have already and those coming are going to keep defenses from stacking the box. Nobody respected Jake's arm or our receivers after we were exposed by South Carolina. Just the fact that defenses will actually have to prepare for his mobility and running will make us much harder to predict and defend.

    Excited to see what Justin Fields-- I mean Jamie Newman will do running this offense.

    Well that’s definitely a glass half full way to look at what’s potentially our best bet at quarterback. Can’t say I blame you, but still hope he ends up an awesome fit and has a killer year. Most concerning to me is his stat line is scary similar to fromms and he played in the ACC.

    Fromm had it real tough handing off to multiple NFL RBs standing behind lines that included multiple NFL blocker and ohh yea he has thrown the ball to multiple NFL WRs

    How many players has Newman had around him NFL bound

    GA wr core last season had more talent in the 5th string wr than anyone Newman has been able to throw to

    LSU vs UGA ,,,,LSU WR had more drops including 3 tds where the players were wide open deep …… From had 2 TD drops ….. LSU guy never batted an eye threw for a Million yards while Fromm did what he always has done in close games (folded up)
