The year after I was gone, a whole bunch of new offensive linemen took over and they were larger that UGA's offensive line was in 1986-87. The lightest guy we had was a 220-pound center. everyone else was 270-plus. The biggest of them all was a 6-7 tackle named Scott Cooley, who also weighed in at 320 pounds. That was the biggest high school lineman I had ever seen at the time.

McDonough GA. I was a baseball guy and remember watching Jason Heyward his senior year when I was a freshman. Talk about hitting a baseball a very long ways... especially before they went to the bbcore bats. Brenton Cox is from Stockbridge, about 20 mins up the rd. I played center my freshman year in highschool and had to block Dalvin Tomlinson (Giants 3rd round D-lineman out of Bama), that's when I realized I would just stick to baseball lmao.
Live on North Shore, but work in Ooltewah
He was a man among boys, even as a 10th-grader. A generational talent. Fields reminds me a lot of him.
We were running the spread formation back then waaaay before it became a household name. No zone-read. Just Charlie in the shotgun with 2 backs for blocking or hand-offs....one would go out for a pass and there were 4 other receivers. Sometimes he would pass....sometimes he would take off. He was about 6-2 and 215, so he was no slouch running the ball and was a load to tackle. He would lower his shoulder and run over you, too.

My roots are deeper in Tuscaloosa than 99% of Tide fans.
They go back at least to the 1830s when a great, great grandfather on Dad's side resettled there from The Nashville area.There was only 3 to 4 thousnd white people in the whole area then, so very few go back that far.
Both parents, all 4 grandparents and 5 siblings, as well as myself were born there.
Thankfully Dad moved us first to Orlando, then NW Georgia when I was still too young to be infected with Tide syndrome.
I live in Locust Grove GA but been in New Jersey working for over a year. I do get to come home every other weekend.
I worked on the road ( last stop Shippensburg Pa.) for a few years.
We were working 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off like offshore oil field workers do.
I live in Evans but i’m a Sophomore at Greenbrier.
I went to Greenbrier. I’m a long ways from my sophomore year though.
Figure now is as good a time as any to come into the fray. Live in the big city. Miss the south.
