Georgia gets needed boost with JT Daniels, George Pickens in Orange Bowl fold
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Georgia football got a healthy — and much-needed — lift on Monday night with the arrivals of quarterback JT Daniels and receiver George Pickens in South Florida.
Comments
Oh please…like he’ll do any more than wear a headset and ponder where he’ll go in the portal!
That’s great news, Mike ! Thanks for the post!
Go Dawgs! Hate on Michigan!
Pickens will definitely see field time. JT......? Bennett's performance will be a factor. Michigan will leave the gate hard. UGA better be there stride for stride. OSU could not match Michigan's intensity. Jordan Davis said UGA came to Miami to win......well, be a man of your word Jordan...WIN!
If JT sells his soul to the devil in exchange for some receivers not named Bowers to get some consistent separation, then by all means he should start!
If Daniels plays, I’m sure the offensive game plan would be custom fit for his ability. Get the ball out quickly and max protection.
The problem is nobody will ever know the true answer to the one question every fan ask. Until given a chance, even Kirby Smart does not know how JT would have done against Bama. He has never had the opportunity to see. Let’s just pray if it’s needed again, Kirby can, and will, pull the trigger 🙏
J.T. should have been playing 8 weeks ago when cleared by his physician/ 2 weeks after he was cleared by UGA sports doctors/training staff. Now he may be rusty without reps/snaps under real conditions, with 1st string receivers. Hope he can play with effectiveness,, if he gets the chance or need to play. He worked during the summer in cali with the catchers, who took the trip, but that has been wasted 5 months later. Doubt he will play, even if behind, with a passing game in need. The script has been written. We will win or lose with SB. Let's wish our front 7 defense does the job once again, and keeps the score low, and DB's don't lose coverage for long balls. Get a turnover or 2 and we may squeak by until the next week, when we will need to implement the Auburn game-plan against the tide( rush 6-7, man coverage ALL GAME LONG, not giving them a score on last drive).
The Dawgs Offense was a question mark at the beginning of the season, through the season, and into post season play. Their like a box of chocolates you never know what your gonna get. But after game one the Dawgs Defense was a Near constant positive, Until…….. So what I Hope very much to see is a smothering, stifling, flying to the ball Dawgs Defense. A defense so stout from the onset of the game and All the way through that Michigan can only pray to score a FG !! That’s what the Dawgs D HAD been all season, Until……. I want to see a return in Full of that. I want that nightmare game a short while back to be a total fluke. That will Never happen again. That’s what I Hope for and Expect from the Dawgs D. Now it would be Awesome, Wonderful, Terrific, Outstanding IF the Dawgs Offense could sustain drives and score TD’s not FGs. Please Dawgs Offense give me a Very Pleasant surprise. On Special Teams, would Love to see some great Kick & Punt returns !! Also love to see Pod make Any & All FGs he Might be called on to make. In Short for this novel, a Dawgs Team ( Coaches Definitely Included) firing on All cylinders All game long !! And carry that right on into the National Title Game. I Believe it all depends on how bad KS and the Dawgs want it. Go Dawgs !!
If Stets starts and begins to struggle I sure hope Kirby will bring in JT. If (and I sure doubt he will) JT gets the start and begins to struggle I would hope Kirby would bring in Stets. Changing QBs would be contingent on that it’s Very clear that which ever one is under center just ain’t getting it done, and hopefully Don’t Wait to long till the game has gotten so far out of hand theirs no hope. I hope our Dawgs come into this game Bitter, Angry, EAGER to totally Redeem themselves in front of the whole nation. I hope Kirby is Willing to step out of his comfort zone and take Calculated Risks. Not so much gimmick and gadget plays but Thinking outside the box. Harbaugh and his folks have studied the Dawgs closely I’m sure, in particular The Debacle in Atlanta. SO come in with a plan totally different than they were expecting. As much as I hate to say it sort of Sabanesque you might say. AND if things ain’t working, Please Oh Please Kirby be willing to change to something else. You know like dropping out of zone coverage to man for example.
Yeah yeah, you think practice is the end all, be all? Wake up and smell the roses. It falls on Kirby’s shoulders as the head coach. And every fan, including me, has a right to question his decisions. Yeah he gets paid, ALOT of money for his football knowledge and decisions. None of that means they are the right decisions. As I stated before, YOU, me, Kirby, and everyone else has no clue how JT would have done playing against Bama. There are 2 things I know, because I have seen it twice now. Stetson being elusive doesn’t phase Saban. I’m pretty sure 41-24 shows that. I hope I’m wrong and the Dawgs get to the glory land with Stetson. Prove me and a lot of others wrong. Go Dawgs!
I agree. Stetson has gotten better over the years. Is better good enough? Not looking for most improved, being this close to the finish line. Play to win the game as Herm said.
