“Realistic expectations don’t exist for Georgia football quarterback Jamie Newman”
Here’s the thing – a couple of your colleagues, one who appears regularly on DawgNation LITE and one who IS DawgNation LITE seem to believe it’s their sacred duty to create UN-realistic expectations. 🙄🙄
1 step at a time
First job is for him to win the starting job
Connor has been spewing the same thing for two weeks, or longer, now. The only competition, in Connor’s eyes, is who will be Newman’s backup. Granted, you don’t bring in transfers to sit on the bench but they’re also not anointed by beat writers! Go Dawgs!
I think most Georgia fans are realistic about our QB situation and the last thing we're thinking about is a Heisman Trophy winner. Most of this hype around Newman is being perpetrated by the media who clearly has an agenda.
I've said since Newman came on board, while I hope the hype is justified, can we at least wait until G-Day to see how he does against the Dawgs' defense? That will be a clue, it seems to me.
There are a lot of Georgia people who believe the crazy logic..."Well LSU got a transfer QB. That QB had a crazy year that no one dreamed he would have and LSU won........The same thing will happen at Georgia" No......this guy, in all probablity, is not the Georgia Burrow
Fromm always worked to put his team into position to win. I, like others, questioned his motivations, turning pro after a lackluster year. I suspect that Fromm's dedication to the Dawgs' success played a factor. Maybe he realized the O needed a fresh start, and by staying, he was preventing that. Fromm will always be a DGD.
Could you imagine if Mathis or Beck were the starting QB all season with Newman being a "Heisman Candidate"?
Connor Riley: "But even if Smart had gone ahead and named Newman the starter, the hype he’s already getting wouldn’t be any different." There may be a competition of sorts but I feel Smart has placed Newman on the "tentative" starter roster.....I M O !! Monken will have a say as well. UGA must be humming along on all cylinders come Bama day! Saban will be ready. The UGA staff is in place to accomplish this. BEAT BAMA!!! (But beat VA first)! GO DAWGS!!!
I personally hope that we exorcise 40 years of championship demons, rather then exercise them!
40 years is quite enough exercise for our championship demons!!
