    As for the OP, My son and I have met him several times as we live in the same area of Georgia. He is definitely a DGD! I think this is more of a “mother hen” mama standing up for her son. Godwin may possibly be a little disgruntled, but injury has played a lot into his numbers for the season. I expect him to put up good numbers in SECCG and “hopefully” in the 2 games to follow.

    Sounds like someone is afraid they may not get a new house

    I think it is just a matter of losing perspective when it's your kid. You see it at all levels of competitive sports. Unfortunately Social Media makes everyone all too aware.

    And a lot of people are expecting these kids’ families to act strictly professional. As much as people want to make it more like professional football with the playoffs, etc.. This ain’t professional football. Things like this are going to happen.

    People prefer this game because it’s more unpredictable an emotion driven. But when unpredictable, emotion driven things happen that aren’t neatly tucked away inside a uniform, people get all ****.

    For the players, I very much agree with you. But for their adult parents? Come on man, she should know better then to act a fool online. The week before the biggest game of the year too. Plus, he's a freaking starter and plays on the majority of offensive snaps. I'm extremely disappointed in her. And I'm biting my tongue a good bit about this.

    If acting a fool online is the criteria then you must be disappointed in a lot of people, I know I am. That's why I stay off it, except for a few spots like here.

    Unfortunately, some mothers are just overbearing...and that appears to be the case here. I feel bad for Terry. It must be embarrassing.

    Geez, she is throwing serious shade. I can’t take this woman seriously when she is being this passive aggressive.

    @WCDawg, you do make some valid points, but as good of a receiving group as we currently have, I don’t think any of them, other than maybe JJ Holloman were seen as future 1st rounders for the NFL. Ridley was a 3 star recruit. Mecole and Terry, as great as they are, just lack size to be a first rounder. That being said, wherever Haselwood signs, he is expected to go first round. Blaylock, maybe. He has much better route running skills than Mecole and Godwin had when starting their careers at UGA, but still lacks size.

    I don’t have the time to research the number of first round WR’s who didn’t have great stats in college, but I was basing my argument more on “non first rounders” who made a name for themselves when given an opportunity to play on Sundays. Just off the top of my head there’s this guy named Tom Brady. And another RB, can’t remember for sure where he played college ball, but 196th pick in the 1995 draft. And yet one more scrawny kid drafted at number 117th overall – Steve Largent.

    But, I do think we can agree, the NFL has drastically changed the last 6 – 8 years – especially regarding WR’s. We just don’t see as many smaller guys put up stats like Largent and Wes Welker. It has become the bigger, stronger WR’s more of late. This is one reason I have lost interest in the NFL. It has become more of a “every team pretty much runs the same offense and defense” league. That’s why there are just no more dominating teams to pull for or against. The closest “dominant” team over the past few years would be the Pats, but there are far fewer “impressive” runs/wins in the NFL as in years past. I know this is a little “off subject,” but just wanted to better explain my opinion.

    No doubt 6'.0'' and taller WRs are generally favored in drafts, but going back to 2012 there have been 4 WRs listed as 5'11'' taken 1st rd, Both Terry and Mecole are listed as 5'11''. There have also been 3 WRs listed as 5' 10'' and another listed as 5'8'' taken1st rd in that period of time.

    Terry catches the go ahead TD with 32 secs to go. Hot Rod then punches the kick off through the end zone and into the 11th row. Refs enforce a brand new "Bammer rule" and place the ball at the 50 for "kicking too far". Tuaer throws 45 yard strike to himself and scores the winning TD just to show QB2 that he had the right idea against GT. TG5 goes to Atlanta where he has a long career. Hey it's just as crazy.

    Yeah.... I mean I don’t have any insider information but it’s prwtty obvious to me this is just an over confident, jaded woman being immature on social media as a way to vent over whatever situation she is going through.

    I checked as well. I'm sure that someone told her to get her **** together, that we didn't need this type of distraction the week of the SECCG.

    Kirby says every week that the best will play... So what’s that tell ya??? Godwin clearly isn’t the best receiver on the team, hell not even top 4. This isn’t peewee league, & your mama can’t do anything about it.

    Terry may well be the best on the team, but there are others in the running.

    Agreed, WCDawg. A healthy Terry Godwin probably is our most complete wide receiver, but that still wouldn't necessarily result in the QB throwing him the ball more than anyone else.

    We need to figure out why we never have receivers with good stats.

    Frankly I wouldn't want my 5 star WR son to sign with a program that won't get the ball to him like other elite programs.
    It's an odd situation where not even AJ Green put up elite stats, our coaches need to consider this in my opinion.

    “Elite stats” as a college WR “does not equal” “NFL potential.” If you have the potential, the NFL will find you. I think it’s pretty safe to say, barring unforeseen injury, Godwin, Mecole, Holloman and Ridley will have their chance to play on Sundays.

    Name a 1st round receiver who didn't have elite stats in college though. Same with RBs. AJ didn't have truly elite stats for various reasons, but Terry having under 400 yards his senior season does matter.

    It has been pointed out that AJ Green never had a 1000 yard season. Were his stats considered "elite"? Not sure what the definition of elite is.

    Apparently AJ had elite stats, but he didn't have elite stats. According to WC,:

    1> no WR has ever been drafted in the first round that did not have elite stats,

    2> AJ did not have elite stats,

    3> but we all know that AJ was one of the top pics in the first round the year he came out. He was even a couple of picks before Julio Jones. According to WC, that would mean both AJ and Julio had elite stats since no WR has ever been drafted in the first round. that did not have elite stats Very confusing.
