So Mike, you've retold, rehashed, and remade the exact same info into no less than 4 articles. Anything new going on?
I'm certainly not saying we should not try to win. The fact remains, some elite players are not going to participate giving opportunities to younger players that will be depended on to take the next step, beginning with the bowl game, for next year. This excites me!
Losing to Texas created a negative dialog amongst many UGA fans about Kirby, the affects of the loss on the team, and recruiting. Now, the same dialog exists following the LSU game even with an 11 and 1 regular season, east champs, and wins over ND, UF, and Auburn. Well, the loss of Hardman, Ridley, and Nauta did affect the team. The loss to Texas did not. Nor did it affect recruiting. We are top four with three five stars trending heavily to UGA. Sign those and we will be challenging for the top class in February. Evidently, the recruits have more faith in Coach Smart, his staff, and the team than many Dawg fans.
Of course, bowls meant more in the Dooley era. All due respect to Coach Dooley, but he did not coach during the playoff era and the most Dawg fans hoped for in those days, except for the Walker years, were an SEC championship and a bowl win. With Kirby, it's a natty or bust.
Eason will end the 2nd or 3rd QB drafted in this years draft if he declares,
His stock will rise in every workout Pro scouts go to watch. His numbers were solid for a kid nearly 2 years removed from being able to play a single game. He has every Pro box checked. Big body, solid decision making, big arm, great pocket awareness, solid movability around the pocket.
Fromm stock will stay level or even sink a tad, His arm is average, His decision making is average ( he makes great decisions not throwing interception however he overlooks big plays that are needed in the NFL instead throwing to the flat on 5-8 yard routes leaving guys running open deep) More to decision making than not throwing interceptions.
I picture Fromm as a career back-up much like David Green was. You can trust him to learn his job and come in and finish out a game with a start here and there and not hurt the team...… In my opinion that's a great spot to be in the NFL. You make great money for multiple years without all the wear and tear on your body
Fromm has lil to lose or gain if he returns. His stock in the NFL is stable it will not rise or fall much either way.
Wilson will end up a 2nd round pick
You are comparing apples to oranges. This is more comparable to Hardman who had the size and speed that saw his stock rise as the draft approached '
A man as big as Wilson who from mid year on was our best OL just didn't have the fan / media hype and that moves the way he can with a long wing span ……. lets just say he is more likely to climb his way into round One than to fall past the Third round
If Big Ben also ends up declaring for the draft he also would only improve his stock in combines . He is a work out warrior and he is a road grader in the run game. The man is just a mauler. Much like Ben Jones from a few years back the NFL finds a place on the OL for guy with the attitude and ability of men like this
College is the last real football these guys will ever play... I'd play till they run me off. The NFL is nothing but WWE... fake as frog hair. The money is the only real thing about it.
...and if Eason were still a Dawg, he would still be Fromm's backup.
Yeah, Shoottehhooch, I am an older DAWG, no playoffs, just win and grin....lolol. Thanks.
I thought Eason played very well against ranked Boise State last night...38-7 victory. He was mobile, accurate, and nailed a couple of over the shoulder bombs. He is similar to Fromm but stronger and more versatile. I do not believe he would be Fromm's backup. He looked a lot more mature. GO DAWGS!!!
Agreed. Doesn’t have it factor. No real passion for game.
Only because CKS sees Fromm as his boy and saw Eason as a CMR player
But hey Kool-Aid drinker like you thinks Fromm is better than God ….. cant fix that kind of thought
If Eason and Fromm enter the NFL at same time at no point will Fromm be in front of Eason ….. Same can be said for the young man starting at Ohio State ….. If Tom Brady in his prime walked in the door as a QB fans like you and the main guy CKS would still start Fromm and swear by the constant 5-7 yard passes and (pray his guy slips a tackle and gains more yards) his great leadership of handing the ball off into run blitz's
No Way No How Talent vs Talent Fromm could beat out Eason or Fields but just listen to CKS talk about the things you cant measure and how Fromm is a lot like him (his boy) that's the only thing that kept Fromm in the line-up
Yep, Kirby ran off Eason and Fields and kept Fromm and lost Pittman and kept Coley.
In the context of winning a national championship, Kirby ain't the guy
I reckon QBs Eason, Fields and Fromm will blaze their own paths to the future. UGA better be happy with newbie Carson Beck. Coley is with us..like it or not. Kirby sees something in the OC many do not. The Pit-Man is entrenched in Arkansas rebuilding. OLC Luke hit the field running and is a favorite of recruits....and Kirby! Smart is the UGA coach and AD McGarity won't budge. So like it or not...he is the coach of choice for now.....etc. My beam is aimed at 2020....with a Bowl game wedged in between. I honestly believe UGA has a host of really good new position players that need to be coached into the SEC. Rosemy and speedster Arian Smith should be standout receivers. Kendall Milton is a full-size, #3, 5-star, power running back with excellent speed. He can complement Cook and White and special teams' Kenny McIntosh, who can sub as an RB at any time. Both Lines look BIG as usual. You guys know how things look....I'm just self-mulling. If UGA signs either 5-star Ringo or Washington or both (unlikely) that would send UGA recruiting into orbit!!! They will let all know Jan/Feb. Ringo just may surprise UGA and has signed. Washington: it is much more doubtful he penned the UGA signee pledge? QB is my big hang-up
GO DAWGS!!!.
Wilson won't go in the top 3 rounds. Hope for his sake I'm wrong. Lots of big kids out there. He could use another year of maturing. Probably just get some invites. Thomas,and Kindley, will go before him.
