I think 2 key things led to the coaches finally making a decision : Chubb being cleared to play, and the OL playing better than expected.
Dont forget the 3rd: Lambert cant lead our team to points.

Tech has been a far inferior program for over 50 years. Pipe down.

True and we're very aware of it. We've got our own discussion going on about it on our board. Along with other issues like a very experienced QB v. a true freshman. We're not even agreeing with each other right now.
But GT (a.k.a. little brother) trash talking UGA or offering QB analysis is simply laughable.
Eh I'm not going to step in on some clean, old fashioned hate -- I'll leave that part to y'all.
That said, I think Eason's incredibly talented but the HS competition is one thing I wonder about. I may have to check out y'all's discussion of it. Regardless, any true freshman will take his lumps in this conference. As I said earlier, I'd have eased him into the role with in-game reps but relied on a steady hand to start the first game (starting against UNC makes me a bit less confident about that game than I was before) but that's just me. I can see the logic in getting it over with but I think it's a bit too risky in a game like UNC. If it were a smaller school it would make more sense to me.

In all fairness, Bama the only game he really "lost " for us.
Now there's no way in Hell I want him lined up behind the centdr with game on the line or if our RB's go down and we have to win a game with his arm.

That is not even something to talk about. Eason can do good against good or bad high school teams and he knows how to win if he needs to. He will do good at college and show how to win.

In all honesty, UNC is kind of a throwaway game. A loss wouldn't hurt sec east chances (not saying that's a prediction, just a goal) but a win would be helpful for both the team and his develooment.
I don't think he'd gain anything by "learning" against Nichols st or ULL (I get that it's a live game but are these teams better than UGAs 3s?) and then having to start at ole miss because he looked good against low tier schools.
Might as well see what he can do against P5 and go from there. If he's awful, then Lambert can "manage" the offense till JE is ready. I get the psyche thing but honestly.if youre that fragile that you can't realize you need to develop then maybe SEC/NFL football is not the right career path.
Just my two cents.

Tech plays in the shite tier ACC, it wasn't for Clemson and FSU the conference would be at best on par with the AAC.

Seriously, what other options do Georgia have?

If UGA starts Lambert or Ramsey against UNC, they will lose.
They need to start Eason.

Your enthusiasm is great.
But your facts are wrong. We lost to tech in 2008. Between the hedges.
Before you tech nerds get all huffy, I left the "t" lowercase on purpose because frick tech.

Again... Suck with the old or suck with the new. Doesn't really matter.

They have a solid OL, great running game, and good TEs.
All 3 of those will help a young QB succeed.
Plus, Eason is an unknown. UGA has played with both Lambert and Ramsey, and the team knows that both of them just don't have it.
Throw Eason out there and see what happens. Plus, its in the Georgia Dome.

GT also beat a top 5 team at home last year in the worst year since 1994 so when is the last time UGA could say that? You all are known for failure to win any game of signficance. pot meet kettle.
Dude. You won three games last year. Congrats! We are very, very happy for you.

Eason will announce he is transferring by no later than Thanksgiving.

Always expected he would start
