I’ll have to go look at them. Hopefully he makes it back for the start of the season. At 100%

He looks pretty good. He's not make 90 degree cuts at full speed, but he's definitely putting a lot more stress on it than simply running or jumping. I think he'll be good to go.

Hopefully we have enough talent that we can play him just enough to get him a good draft grade and keep him healthy.

Who saw Bama and UGA's spring games and can comment? I did see someone say their defense looked like paper.

GAs defense was stout at all three levels. Their RB Robinson is a beast - but we knew that. Beck was off. Timing and accuracy. A lot of my neighbors around here that are GA fans were not happy. Said their backup played better than Beck. Beck was still playing in the 4th qtr. I thought about mentioning our experiences with QBs having rough spring games and it not mattering, but thought better of it and figured I would let them wring teeth and gnash hands for a while.

And sorry, but how are these guys paid to write. “Look plush with…”? Does he mean flush with? Or is “plush with” some new saying - like you are surrounded by playmakers like ET was surrounded with stuffed animals?

Thanks. In snooping it around it sounds like Bama's RB room may be as deep as our WR room.

I’d say that’s a fair assessment. Their oline wasn’t getting much push though, and any lanes closed fast. I chalked that up to GAs defense, but I’d also be fine with that RB talent struggling behind an underachieving line.

Edit - thought you were talking about GA - not AL. Not sure what AL’s RB room looks like. Counting on the new coach to sink that ship.

I’m not a doctor and I don’t claim to be. However, running in a straight line is different than changing direction. I’m just saying I’d be surprised to see him in the early season. That is all. Could be wrong.

Fingers crossed for no setbacks but he said he expects to be 100% healthy for the start of fall camp.

(a to z sports is terrible but this “article” is mainly just regurgitated statements made by Bru during a radio interview with Dave Hooker in February)
