Kirby Smart mum on starter, but JT Daniels 'preparing himself for this moment'
Georgia coach Kirby Smart has yet to name a starter for the Mississippi State game, but JT Daniels appears to remain the frontrunner
Comments
If he regains form with his knee he is anything but statuesque or whatever. He avg. 8.9 yards a carry his JR. year in HS and he certainly can move around or outside the pocket when needed to buy some time when needed. I'm sure he will have to overcome the getting hit on that knee fear like everyone else who has that injury does, it took the next season after coming back for Chubb to be Chubb, JT sees the whole field as good as any HS kid coming out of HS that I've watched film on.
Totally get what Eric Stokes said about JT believing in his knee. Until he can let go of worrying about his knee and a possible re-injury he just can't be as effective physically and mentally. It's going to be so key to JT's success. It's not that hard to re-injure and blow out the same ACL again, and until he gets in a game scenario and has to evade a rush and/or gets hit then it's almost impossible to not have that hesitation in the back of his mind. I seriously hope Kirby plays him soon even if he doesn't start. Daniels has got to get over that injury hump, and the only way to really do that is in a game. Good luck JT!
Leach always has to put a jab in like saying JT is a Statue...ok then we will run the ole "statue of liberty" trick play and score 6! As long as he is accurate and throws a deep ball now and then and limits turnovers then like Johnny Ringo said "OK Lunger let's do it"!!!
Looking forward to seeing this guy on the field. Just having the threat of a deep ball, and hopefully with accuracy when he settles into the game, will be a game changer. Hope this will also allow us to see what kind of game Monken will call with the threat of a qb that should be more suited to his play calling. Go Dawgs !
hopefully they put him up against our number 1s instead of the scout team so he can prove to himself and smart he can do it ,, and if he cant let beck try but for heavens sake no more bennet or mathis
Geez, @BassDawg he called Daniels "statuesque," which is NOT the same thing as calling him a "statue." Check the definitions. And Go Dawgs.
If Smart starts Bennett again, then I'm not watching another game this year. (Aw hell, I know I will.)
LOL, As high as I've been on the DAWGS, was at the Rose Bowl 2018, and suffered with the dawgs, Ray Goff era, I'm always going to watch and pull for Georgia. This has been the most frustrating year we've experienced in a long time. Was in Jacksonville 2 weeks ago when we lost to the Gaturds and will be there if we lose every remaining game. Just find us a QB!
Start Daniels or Beck please🙏 I don't care if we lose
