If we can land Newman and Broderick Jones, I think we'll be just as good if not better than last year. I'm very excited for the future... We recruit the way we do because one player won't be the straw that breaks our back. We're going to be elite next year and Cade isn't going to change that. Heck, some of you were outraged by him being our future LT anyway. We have the talent, look up Newman's highlights, he had a hell of a season, and we have guys that can play on the OL. Trust in the coaches and the program. Not to mention fu and UTjr still can't beat us.
Dad? I thought you were in vegas for the eye candy and drugs. Haven't seen you since I quit hockey to pursue my acting dream(please respect my decision)
I guess every January 8 until the end of time is just gonna **** for Georgia fans
There just aren't enough crying emojis....
And now this....
The Lord giveth, and the transfer portal and NFL taketh away....
Man lands on Mars
Like Justin Fields, Kyler Murray, Baker Mayfield, Joe Burrow, Jalen Hurts...boy, you are wise one.
Not sure if you read Fromm's letter, but it sounds like the Lord actually taketh (tooketh?).
/s
"...I can assure you that this decision was not based on anything other than what I strongly believe is God's will for my life."
@SoFL_Dawg are you aware of anything that happened during Fromm's meeting with Kirby? A few days ago it seemed that you indicated Fromm would be returning for his senior year (unless I just misinterpreted that post). Fromm was set to announce, had a meeting with Kirby and then delayed his announcement. On the outside looking in that makes it seem like something might have caused a change.
This assumes of course that Fromm had every intention of returning for his senior season. For all I know, he had every intention of leaving and Kirby gave him something to think about that caused Fromm to maybe consider coming back.
Just curious if you are aware of anything in regard to the delay and if there was a change of heart after the meeting?
Cade Mays' dad jammed Fromm's gun last hunting trip with the remaining part of his amputated finger. Fromm's duck blind was ruined in the process, so he said forget it and elected to just roll out. /s
I think you and @kurganofprussia may agree with me that people that have been coaches in high school or college and played in college.......handle this type of news much better than the typical fan.
It happens all the time.
Losing stars to injury, grades, transfers or simply graduation is a constant occurrence.......doesn't mean we always like it.....but we are constantly having to deal with it.
When I say it's no big deal......it really isn't a big deal.
Now ......I understand the concern.....but how many college football teams can handle a transfer like this better than Georgia.....probably about....zero teams.
And brace yourself......this is likely not the last bombshell in the next few days.
Zach Evans just roundhouse kicked us in the face.
Jake Fromm followed it up with The Rock’s famous People’s Elbow.
then, Cade Mays ran over us with a cement mixer.
I disagree here. You’ve probably been conditioned to take this news in stride because as a coach you have to. But there isn’t any way of getting around the fact that is having probable starters transfer, and anyone who can leave early leave early is a problem. This will handicap us on offense as long as it continues.
Youre right in that we are still going to be a top 8 team next year regardless based on our talent. But if we want to become a truly top tier team, we Need guys to decide to stick around here more than they have been recently.
We don’t need to over react, but to act like this is run of the mill stuff seems naive to me.
I think it's not the worst thing in the world and kind of expected. With the offensive revamp that is going to occur, the coaches are going to re-access everyone (players) anyways to see if/where they fit the new direction the best. Former starters/2 deep may not be there come spring. As you stated, I wouldn't be surprised if there were more specifically on that side of the ball. @texdawg Assuming we go with a grad transfer for JF's replacement, who do you like? I personally like the kid from WF the more I watch his tape.
Care to explain what this other “bombshell” is we should prepare for?
