What happened to the depth chart? It used to be under the football heading.
It is gone temporarily and I'm trying to come up with a new version of it. If anyone wants to program one, feel free to email me about it.
How is the weight / physical development of Sellers, Curry, Stickler and other "developmental" players going.
Stickler mainly needs to continue building his upper body up. Sellers hasn't grown a ton, I'm still thinking he will remain at SDE for a while.
What is Justin's offseason strength program like? He needs to keep his quickness but he needs to add like 10-15 pounds, we need a physical presence at Qb. 3rd and 2 needs to be automatic like it was in 09. I don't think we have a tough yardage guys at b-back like Zach and Synjyn right now
He has been focusing on rehab so far. He isn't going to get much bigger than he is, so they need to limit the cheap hits he took last year and improve the blocking in front of him.
Will money be a deterrent to bringing in the hoops coach we want? If so, may be best to ride out the Crazy Train until we only have to pay one coach.
It depends, it is too early to tell. Some people who aren't normally interested in writing checks are willing to pass the hat so it depends on how MBob plays this. He is the only person that knows what the numbers will end up looking like.
How did CC hurt his arm?
I can't say, it was off the field and not his best moment and leave it at that.
Was it Zach and Synjyn, or was it Shaq?
It was all of the above and a QB who could make the reads.
Who is the staff looking at to be in the pipeline at C? I know we have Burden and Marshall, but they're only separated by 1 year, plus Marshall is likely to be backing up multiple positions and not just Center, so who is currently behind him? Any of the incoming frosh being thought of for that?
I wouldn't be shocked to see Jahaziel Lee get a look.
What positions are the incoming frosh OL being projected at (someone may have already said this, but I can't remember)?
Lee is center, Cooper is a guard and Braun is an OT.
What will be the pecking order at AB in your mind?
Depends on D-Rob, but I think they redshirt Gantt, TaQuon Marshall and maybe even MLD.
Starters are JJ Green and Qua Searcy or Clinton Lynch with Ike Willis, Lands-Davis, Cottrell rounding out the main guys. I think Jarrett needs some seasoning before he is ready and TaQuon needs to change positions IMO because he will be too much like BJ Bostic frame wise.
Who's your prediction for GT's next starting QB after JT? If it's Jordan, who's your prediction after him?
I have no clue, that is impossible to predict this far out without seeing either Jay Jones or Lucas Johnson on campus.
How bad does the D.Campbell miss really hurt? Could he have been a difference maker ala Shaq Mason on our OL?
Yeah I think he was a difference maker, but two years down the road, not this year though.
BBack Depth Chart:
Marcus Allen
Marcus Marshall
Quaide Wimerskirch
Dedrick Mills
Kirvonte Benson
CJ Leggett
What's your prediction for the depth chart in August?
Mine:
1. Quiade Wimerskirch (1 year already in system | prototypical bback)
2. Marcus Allen (mainly due to experience by end of season probably 3rd string)
3. Dedrick Mills/Kirvonte (need to learn position)
I think CJ, Marcus change to Aback. I don't think Marcus fixes his fumble issues quick enough to maintain his spot in the depth chart.
I think you got that all wrong, Allen will be gone by fall camp IMO, Leggett, Marshall, Quaide, Benson, Mills redshirts.
What's your feeling on drobas of now? Do we still have a legit shot? Thx
I still like GT's chances, but I'll know a little more this week about what has been going on.
Dipping into the AD emergency fund... what does that buy us for a coach? I'd hate to fire one proven loser for anotherlikely loser. In that scenario, just wait another year and pony up the $2 million to get a decent coach. Right?
The emergency fund is for Gregory's buyout not the new coach. They could without help pay around 2 million if necessary.
Just for fun:
1) Kelly, go into your crystal ball and show a post spring practice depth chart for offense and defense.
QB- Thomas, Jordan, Campbell
BB- Leggett, Marshall, Quaide
AB- Green, Griffin, Lands-Davis
AB- Searcy, Lynch, Willis
WR- Jeune, Philpott, Messick
WR- Stewart, Howell, FROSH
LT- Klock, Fromayan
LG- Devine, Whitley
C- Burden, Marshall
RG- Griffin, Morgan
RT- Bryan, Stickler
Defense
SDE- Rook-Chungong, Branch
NT- Gamble, Henderson, Morgan
DT- Kallon, Glanton
RDE- Freeman, Saint-Amour, Simmons
LB- Davis, Lewis, Bridges
LB- Mitchell, Alexander, Alford
NB- Law Austin, Johnson or Curry
CB- Durham, Dotson
CB- Simmons, La Austin
FS- Griffin, Marvin
SS- Gray, Kagawa
2) List possible incoming freshmen that could crack your 2 deep list.
Brandon Adams, Jordan Woods and Jarett Cole
1) Of this past class of 18, Cook recruited 5, Roof 4, McCollum 3. Are these three our "best"'recruiters?
Buzz is pretty good and Sewak has come on quite a bit, but Cook and McCollum are the two best IMO.
2) What are recruiting territory assignments for each coach this year? I assume we're keeping the same for relationship building, but are we trying to "cast a broader net" in any way?
The only thing that changed is Ron West is in parts of Cobb and North GA and McCollum is back in South GA, the rest are the same for now.
3) Is our string of zero results for Speed from DeKalb an indicator that the county has little potential for us?
It's not my place to say, I will say he didn't have a ton of guys with offers (function of his areas academics). Results are results.
4) is our recruiting support in place and hit the ground running? Did I see that a "media specialist" was added? Doing what?
They didn't change anything on the recruiting unit other than Joe Hamilton left, that was the position being replaced.
5) There are six names of possible new coaches of MBB bandied about in your excellent War Room post. Of the lot, which is the BEST recruiter?
No clue.
Just out of curiosity. If wewere to get DR how would that have effect our team recruiting ranking? Not that it matters
GT is 69 right now, if they got D-Rob they would vault to 54 and jump three teams in the ACC.
Percentage CBG get's fired at the end of season?
Unless there is a miracle 80%
If we miss a bowl game this year is CPJ back on the hot seat?
I think he would quit to be perfectly honest, GT couldn't do anything with him until 2018 so it is a moot point.
