Jake Fromm reveals where Gunner Stockton can improve most before 2026 season
ATHENS â Gunner Stockton could be on the verge of taking a big jump in his quarterback skills this offseason, according to former Georgia quarterback Jake Fromm.
Comments
Fromm nailed it in my opinion. The low and inconsistent use of the TEs is directly linked to Gunner’s challenges throwing over the middle. If that can be fixed, it gives a huge advantage to Georgia and unlocks multiple plays and threats that weren’t consistently available this season.
Interesting about his point about being hurt in the Sugar Bowl. I believe Gunner was concussed for most of that game after that first really big hit. You don’t see many hits (totally clean hit) like that and the QB gets up and plays on. Trust his pocket more and throw over the middle and his game becomes much better. Here’s to next season - go DAWGS!
Off Topic: Hearing a report per Rusty Mansell that RB Nate Frazier hasn't signed anything yet. There's also reported talk of Ohio State entering the conversation. Not good.
@Stiffneck…definitely not good if true. Michigan and B1G leading rusher RB Justice Haynes entered the port…we could use him.
Stockton - needs use of our big TEs, needs to be able to make back shoulder , intermediate throws, basically go vertical instead of horizontal with the football. It's a 2-way street - Bobo has to feel confident Gunner can stretch the field vertically or we will continue to rely too much on screens and short dinks. Branch is gone, so all those yards after catch he got won't come as easily next season.
The OL has to be able to play post season football. This is the second year in a row that the OL lost the first game of the playoffs.
The defense next year for Georgia is gonna be championship caliber on all three levels. Gonna be our best defensive line since the 2 nattys. Might be our fastest LB group. Put Ridley at the Star and then Barnes and Bolden on the back end. Frazier is gonna be one of the top backs. Somewhere along the midway point last year his whole game changed and he started breaking tackles and falling forward every run.
I got a guy for Indiana. How in the world Damien Henderson from Creekside ain’t going to a power 4 school I don’t know. When I watch a highlight video and their first five highlights are punt returns for TDs, I got to look into that. I don’t care if he’s playing 8 man church league football. That’s 4A in Ga on the south side of Atlanta. Most of those teams are like 4x100 teams. Speed at every skill position. Those State Championships in GA, talent everywhere but no offers. What’s going on. The SEC chasing stars and transfer portal guys now. I know the Big ten without a doubt in my mind has the best overall coaching. They could build 3 playoff teams with the talent in this state.
How about Jake Fromm for Offensive Coordinator?
if true - don't let the door hit him in the a**. the NIL has taken most all of the fun/love out of the game for me. it's become the "wild wild west". if he doesn't want to be at UGA, he can go, plenty more RB out there, especially HS. certainly don't want a player that doesn't want to be there.
at this point, I would be happy to see colleges stand together and refuse this NIL model bs - walk away and tell the pros they can pay/have them -plus all the overhead and to find their own venue…call their bluff. pretty sure the pros want NONE of it, besides they still have a rule you have to be 3 years removed from college before they can draft you…unlike baseball.
just about ready for walk-ons & scholarship players who play for the love of the game & school…take the ball back and start all over, pretty dang sure the fans will still be there - and so will the players.
guessing the only problem is - is the legality of it all.
The lack of use from the TE room the past few years is head scratching . If you’re not going to be a deep threat it would make sense to use them . They are good enough to beat a single back . Obviously the OC is smarter than everyone else .
Gunner can improve mostly by having a new play caller.
Before this season I had the same sentiment. I still want 'college' restored to college football. Sadly, that isn't going to happen. Because of that fact, I now say "If you can't beat them, outspend them if you can". Don't abandon high school recruiting, pay good players to stay at UGA, and use the portal to get the players you need. Also, get some very heavy interior linemen for both sides of the ball. I don't care if they can't chase or pull as long as they can overpower the person in front of them.
@Stiffneck From his perspective he will have a much better OL than he has now. Same reason I doubt that Haynes would come here, plus he will demand a big $ contract. We will go with what we got!!
Less time practicing running into a wall and more time developing the perfect placement and timing on that beautiful 20 yard out route that Mendoza and Burrow are so prolific in hitting…
BREAKING NEWS….
Auburn WR Cam Coleman transferring to the Longhorns….add he and Wingo together, and they might be the best WR duo in the country next year….Longhorns also flipped NC State running back transfer Hollywood Smothers from Alabama…rated the #1 RB in the portal. This moves the Longhorns to #1 in the transfer portal rankings with (13) transfers (all 3-5 stars) per 247 Composite Transfer Rankings….Dawgs are at #26, Bama drops to #49.
I agree. It's not the same. There's bad & good, in that. But, I think the bad out weighs the good. It's just a matter of time, before a "JMU or APP ST" win the Natty. All they need is a lot of luck & a good set of refs. It's always been a bent game....but, now it's broke...imo. And, that opinion extends to the NFL.
It's just a matter of time, before they figure our a way to make an almighty "dollar" with Little League and Pony League Teams and Players.
Lmao....we'll be watching 12 Year Old footballers, on ESPN in 10 years. Baby Gronk will Host the show with Herbstreit. Heck, they already have badminton & Balloon Blowing....and, Dodgeball. We're getting there, slowly but, surely.
He needs to work on his release, he goes to his hips before throwing... which is what lineman key on before they jump. Quicker release and he will be a hiesman finalist
