I think Richmond will stay at OT and Johnson will be one of our OGs. Hall is gonna give it a shot this fall, but the VQ guys seem to be skeptical he'll be in a position to do more than occasionally contribute or add depth.


Deandre Johnson is an OLB now and likely behind Taylor one OLB spot. I wouldn't be surprised if Kongbo is behind both Taylor and Johnson at OLB and is mostly used just to get after the QB in passing situations. I'm also not sure Peterson is a starting LB until later on in the season at least. He's gonna have some ground to make up and Bituli/Sapp are no pushovers.

I think Deandre Johnson is going to make some noise this year

Hope so, but the guy I think has a breakout year, Matthew Butler

I think Butler has the tools and attitude to get there eventually, but he's gonna be behind Phillips this year. Hard to breakout as a backup. Hopefully he can contribute at a high level as a rotational player.

Pruitt did great; glad we have him.

Impressed with Paul’s comments, he’s right.

Butch taking that job at Bama was a terrible move. He’s a punchline joke.

Pollack is a prick.

Mcelroy seems to have non biased opinions.

We win 7 then go bowling.

I'm thinking Butler, Tuttle and Phillips will end up the starters on the DL. If not, like u said, hopefully he will be in the rotation and contribute

I know within the coaching bubble, this has to be one of the worst moves a coach can make. He OPENLY went from a power 5 hc to an analyst (bottom feeder) position to the rival. Its mindboggling, it freels like hes fine with sacrificing his own career to stick it to his former employer. Crazy

Don’t see how he’s sticking it to UT. :boredom:

I'm thinking they'll go with someone bigger like Gooden, Johnson, or Emerson along with Tuttle and Phillips. I wouldn't be surprised if Tuttle gets some looks at DE if one of those 3 can play NG either.

Because it's been an eventful football week.. Maybe a few things clarified from a roster standpoint... Why not?

Offense:
QB: Guarantano/Chryst -- feeling like we're in good hands regardless, as long as the locker room is together behind the starter.
RB: London/Chandler/Banks -- I like the committee approach. Not a whole lot of credence in a feature back anymore.
(Select packages-- FB: Pope/Blakely -- yes, please and out of the I Formation, too thanks)
WR: Jennings/Callaway/Byrd/Williams/Johnson/Murphy/Palmer -- too much talent there to be subpar. CDJ will have them helping the QB's tremendously.
TE: Wood-Anderson/Wolf -- It'll be nice to see a sixth OL on most plays involving the TE, but I'm also excited to see DWA catch some seams over the middle. Glad Eli knows how to block now.
OL (l-r): Smith/Richmond/Kennedy/Carvin/Hall starting with Tatum/Calbert/RyJohnson/JahJohnson/Tatum backing them up.. Lane well over 300 now, as is Devante Brooks now, right? I'm rooting for Brooks to carve out his niche, because he's worked hard to come back from injury over his HS Sr year, and to transition from TE to OL. Gotta be difficult to do. Don't look now, but our starters may be able to form a competent unit, especially against lower and middling front-sevens.

Defense:
Front Seven:
DL: Gooden/Tuttle/Phillips followed by Emerson/Crosby/Butler?/Bennett? -- We have pieces. I don't know how in shape Alexis Johnson is, and I don't know if we can rely on Deandre Johnson, even though he was a name that seemed to be doing the right things in practice last year. I like our starters here, and hopefully we have enough playable depth to be able to cycle through the 2-deep in a single game.
LB: Kongbo/Peterson/Bituli/Sapp with quality depth in DKJr/Taylor/Ignont/Allen -- I really can't wait to see our pass rush under Sherrer and Rocker.
CB: Alontae Taylor and (am I hearing this correctly?) Bryce Thompson could be starting the WVU game? Really doesn't bode well for depth, but Baylen Buchanan and hopefully Marquill Osborne can pick up some slack
STAR: Abernathy/Shamburger -- Abernathy got a little slower last year, and Shamburger had a game against Bama. This may be switched around by the time we play Mizzou.
S: Warrior/TKJr and a healthy rotation of Theo Jackson, please.

I may have on my orange-tinted glasses here, but it looks like we have some pieces to work with here. I don't buy for a second that Florida and Carolina out-class us when it comes to talent. We should definitely go bowling if our OL and QB play are even marginally better, which I think both are safe to bet on.

I'm not saying XV-Nulla, but I'm not not saying it either.

Wheres Tim Jordan? He looked solid in the spring and is the best fit for this new offense of the returning backs. Def dont see Banks getting more carries than him unless hes truly special.

I think it’s pretty simple. Unless he got a P5 job, he wanted time off with his family. He was encouraged to get a job, and an analyst job allows much flexibility. He’s probably made $25 million in the last 8 years. I am sure he can take his time on what he wants to do.

And people are thinking that's a bad thing. Even UGA fans wanted Richt to get more of a killer attitude.
