Murray has a litany of bad INTs though. I'd trade the bad INTs for Stafford's holy shite throws. I'll stay in the minority on this one but I firmly believe Georgia could have been better with him at the helm. Greene, well, we remember him as a game manager but the dude has more good throws than we all remember. Not to mention he wasn't asked to do much more than what he did.

I also think Greene was 1000x more clutch than any of the above QBs. Except Shockley in 2005. He was pretty damn clutch outside the Sugar Bowl and even then it was only one mistake.

WR - 2008


2002 - AJ and MoMass was sick, but I give the nod to Terrence, Fred, Reggie, and Michael Johnson.

TE - 2005?


2001 - I have to go with 2001. Ben Watson and Randy McMichael on the same squad. I think McMichael is still somewhere in the top ten in receiving yards in UGA history

quote:

LB - 2004


2005 - As much as I want to include Odell or Boss, I think it's tough to beat Ellerbe, Tony Taylor, Verdun-Wheeler, and Jarvis Jackson

Yea early in Murrays career he had some awful INTs. I just think he came in from game 1 feeling like he had to be the one to win the game because it was either hand off to King or Ealey or...Carlton Thomas...on 3rd and long and those defenses couldn't stop anything.

Aside from a mistake or two, that Sugar Bowl was one of Shockley's best games too, he really was unstoppable as the game went on, hence the fake punt WVU had to pull (sorry, that one may send you on another rant...). I really wish we'd gotten more than one year with Shockley as the starter somehow.

I do too and I remember him pulling the team back. That fake punt, jesus, it was obvious from a mile away but we all still ran backwards.
