Why did Tereshinski or Cox start over Stafford then? Everyone knew Stafford was the most talented of the bunch.


A similar reason that Mason started over ramsey this year, despite not being as naturally talented.

He knew the system inside and out, wasn't going to make silly mistakes (which stafford made in spades until november), and at THAT TIME, gave us a better chance to win. Hell, even in the SC game where Joe T got hurt and we won 18-0, stafford threw for like 150 yards, 0 TDs, and 3 INT.

It's only a matter of when, not if, with eason. But, like joet/stafford, coming out of the gates in game 1 in september, eason might not be our BEST option, at that time. He'll end up starting eventually though, just like stafford.

yes, I agree that ramsey will almost surely start game 1 of 2016. The question is how long he'll hold that spot. You don't redshirt players like eason, gurley, AJ Green, etc.

I'm not worried about talent at all. Andrews is a warrior though, and I think his attitude has been infectious. We need a new alpha dog on the OL. Any of those guys could be that guy. One or more of those guys just needs to step into that role.


My guess is Kublanow. Heard he can be a nasty animal on the line. We need that kind of attitude. Hopefully he can step up and be the leader.

But you do redshirt Moreno and Aaron Murray?

IMO, Ramsey will start all of 2016 with Park as the #2. Eason will redshirt and be a 4 year starter beginning in 2017. He will go on to break all of Murray's records at UGA.

So you'd prefer Eason's first collegiate start to be on the road in South Bend against Notre Dame? Doesn't sounds ideal for me.

He might not start in 2016, but unless Ramsey is playing lights out, Eason will be the starter by the end of the year barring injuries/weird circumstances.

1)TB is different than QB, and we had lumpkin, brown, and ware already in the mix. It wasn't that ludicrous at the time
2)Richt has publicly stated many times that he learned a major lesson with knowshon and would remember that lesson. You've noticed that we haven't redshirted a high profile RB since.

quote:

and Aaron Murray?


Aaron Murray couldnt' even throw a football until October of 2009, so I'm not sure why you would want to burn his redshirt halfway through the year. And Cox was playing well at the time. Teh Murray we remember from 2013 isn't the same as a freshman no one had any idea about in 2009.

quote:

If you're a QB that could be taken in the top 10 of the draft, you typically don't stay 4 years. Throw a redshirt in there, and we may only have him for 2 seasons.

I never mentioned my preference. I stated an opinion based on what I've seen from Richt/Bobo in the past. Please give me one instance where they benched the previous years starter for a true freshman, or anyone for that matter, to take over the starting job.

You make it sound like there's a vast sample size when in reality, there's only 1 comparable situation which was in 2006. Joe T was a senior and our legit QB was brought in later in game 1 to get reps. However, fate smiled on us as joe t got hurt in game 2 and forced stafford into action.

But to answer your question, Cory Phillips got several games experience in 2000 and even threw for 400 yards in a game (possibly more than once, can't remember). He was a junior going into 2001, yet Richt started a redshirt freshman over him anyway.

Richt could've started Shockley over Greene. He could've started Stafford over Tereshinski. Instead, he started the more experienced guy.

Richt wasn't the coach in 2000 when Cory Phillips played.

There's no need to keep discussing it. I told you my opinion and you told me yours and we probably won't change each other's mind.

Probably for as long as he doesn't get hurt. We're not talking about a JT3 type guy in Ramsey. He's a talented player with a ton of potential. If he's playing well, there's no reason to take him out. Give Eason a year to learn and get coached up at practice.

ETA: Subliminally typed Mason instead of Ramsey.

im not sure some of yall realize how talented Brice is and will be....he has a great arm and can manage our play action pass offense qiute well....he will make his bad decisions, but I don't think he will ever lose his job barring injury....ever....we have a lot of guys behind him but i think sme of that is lessons learned on CMR's part as well...those few years we had when the depth and experience were lacking made it resolute in CMR's mind that he would keep us stacked with qb's on scholly...and quality ones at that....

CMB has been grooming BR since he was 15, no way he loses his job to park/eason any time soon...IMHO

Sorry, don't buy this. If he's been "grooming" him in a wing-t he's doing a pretty shitty groom job.

Camden County opened up their offense a lot more during Ramsey's senior year.

this^


and the fact that Brice has been attending UGA camps since MS and was going to every other camp that UGA recommended...he was offered early and never waivered, even when UF came calling....and BAMA...why?...cause he was being groomed for a job...and he knew it...CMB can't force a HS coach to completely abandon their offensive system, but he can help that individual prepare for the future, despite the system he is in...
