Commit to the G, young man!

As optimistic and confident as I am about Chubb's return in '16, there's still a lot of unknown. If Chubb hadn't been injured I think there's a high chance he would have out-rushed Fournette last year. That being said, nothing but respect for Fournette. Hell of a player and a class act.

Yeah, I haven't stopped by here in a while, seems there's always at least one troll with a computer set up in their mothers basement.

I'm good with Ramsey moving to punter full-time haha. I would be less worried about Lambert if I knew the run game was at full strength and he didn't have to pass a lot. I don't know anything about Bentley but I think ya'll have a good dual-threat QB in McIlwain. Kid will be hard to defend.

Hoping for players to get injured. What a class act.

Meh, I don't think Dooley and Smart are comparable as far as the "Saban disciple" discussion goes...granted, I see the point that's trying to be made. The relationship between Smart and Saban was closer than he and Dooley in my opinion. Doesn't guarantee Kirby will be a successful HC, but if recruiting is any indication, the odds are highly in his favor.

I wouldn't be totally surprised if he got the nod to start the UNC game after fall practices...and that's more a statement of how inconsistent Lambert and Ramsey are than anything. He's going to be a star in 2016, Dawg Nation just needs to prepare for him to have some hiccups early on.

I really hope you were trying to come across as sarcastic, mike g.

Well, the kid committed to Michigan. Not a whole lot you can do to convince a kid that has his mind made up that he would rather head north rather than play in the SEC. In all fairness, I think UGA is doing pretty good at getting in-state talent so far this cycle.

Can't stand him when he's in that SC jersey but I hate that he's facing a potentially career ending injury. Hope he makes a full recovery and gets his shot in the league.

Honestly, Godwin would have been my pick here with McKenzie a close 2nd, mainly because we saw Godwin @ QB, WR and in ST's. I agree with you on Mecole, though. That kid is going to be a lethal weapon on both sides of the ball!

Yeah, I'm not concerned with receivers either. Plus we'll have a killer TE game. Like you, I worry about the O-line and D-line. Both units could be very good, but it's still a question mark. The only 3 losses on our schedule (that I see) are Ole Miss, UT and UF...I'm going to be really happy if the Dawgs only drop one of those games.

Not saying I know, just feel optimistic it is. He managed to keep a good class together this year and is working on an even better one for 2017 so the talent will keep coming. His coaching ability is unknown, but he couldn't have spent the years he did with Saban without learning something.

App St pulled a horseshoe from their a$$ in that one haha. I didn't watch that game but I was laughing my tail off when they showed the highlights.

^I knew it wouldn't take long for a hillbilly joke to get dropped haha!

Okay, I have to admit, #10 is funny. There were some good times under Richt but I feel good about the direction the program seems to be going under Smart, so...bye Felicia.

Haha! Got to hand it to you, that was funny. And they're probably about the same age.

Haha so I'm ugly now. UGA will be bringing it to Columbia. Get ready.

Ya'll did a hell of a job developing players under Pinkel, I won't argue that. Question is, can the current staff continue that trend.

Nah, that chicken will be rotisserie by the end of that game.

Don't worry, you won't have to see him until it's in the 3rd and UGA is up by 3 scores. You'll be seeing Chubb and Sony in your end zone all day though. Nah, I'm sure it'll be a close game...always is when we go to Columbia. Dawgs still win though.

Roasted? haha I don't know, I guess I haven't looked at it yet. And no, get off that ish. Ya'll toted a whipping last year, and from the worst QB we've had in a while...hate to see what the Dawgs are going to do the yard birds this year.

This fella is just fine, Cap'n...nice handle, by the way, William Quantrill...hell of a scrapper. But no, 2014 has long been an afterthought. Besides, let-downs under Richt were commonplace and weren't that big of a surprise. Since you bring up 2014, maybe you're still butthurt by that embarrassment at home, compliments of UGA, then getting run off the field in ATL. I applaud Mizzou's early successes in the SEC, I really do, but competition in the East is only getting tougher and I don't see Mizzou recruiting well enough (at the moment) to keep up.

He's at least consistent haha! I don't think there is any other individual that I despise, yet respect, as much as Spurrier.

Yeah, schools are allowed to pay for the players legal counsel, per NCAA rules. UGA did for Gurley during the whole jersey signing thing.

I'm leaning toward this being a manageable win for the Vols, unlike that Oklahoma game last year (my wife and I were actually in a Gatlinburg restaurant when that game went down...talk about some pissed of Vol fans, that place was pandemonium), but that Fuente hire has the potential to make this an interesting game.

DuVOL, you make some reasonable points...can't say the same of some other UT fans. I'll admit, ya'll are going to put a damn good team on the field in 2016 (still, I have to think the Dawgs get the W in ATH haha). One point I'd disagree with you on is the direction of our program. We're already loaded with talent and Smart has been on fire with recruiting. We will see soon enough, you're right, and if Smart coaches anything like he recruits then I feel really good about the future.

Won't argue wit you about UGA falling short of hype, but I don't think a Tennessee fan wants to get into a conversation about firing & hiring coaches either...

D-Line-U, sorry, but you're the idiot if you deny that a faction of your fanbase doesn't whine about not being included in everything...if you've been here long enough, you'll notice that a lot of others (from other fanbases) make the same observation. And try not to be so thin-skinned, we all take shots around here. At least we're not as bad here as SEC Smack...those fools are just plain obnoxious. All that aside, I wouldn't have known you even we had of met, however, all the Mizzou fans I did meet in ATH were awesome folks and fun to chat with. As far as being a realist goes, I don't have unwarranted expectations for UGA this year. I think they'll do good but I won't be surprised if Smart's first season gets a little bumpy. Good luck to Zou as well.

I think he'll turn out to be a good back. I worry more about him maintaining his grades at UGA than I am his on-field ability.
