Why do you keep insisting on this narrative?
Because I can see, and I've been watching UGA football since I was old enough to walk so I have points of reference to judge on.

what does that have to do with his ability? Are 1 and done basketball stars any less good simply because they only play 1 year?

Gurley-We did win games without him AND lose games with him.
We can NOT win the new SEC with a run primarily offense. We learned the last two years that depth at RB is not what you think it is. Our ability to back the defense off the line is important to the overall running game. We had so many long runs because teams did stack the box. We have to bring back the deep(er) threat into our passing game.

ok...and? We won games with and without herschel too. We've won games with and without chubb too. What does your statement have to do with how good of a RB Gurley is?

Of course you can. The SEC has always been built on defense and that's not changing. I realize the spread is the "new thing", but alabama has BY FAR, without question, been the most elite, premiere program in the country since 2008 and they've done it with the same old pro-style offense and strong game philosophy as us. Just so happens they've had elite defense as well.

After following the back and forth here, I know you are just about married to your argument...but these statements are laughable.

Ironically for them, if they still had McElwain or Nussmeier as their OC they would have beaten Ohio State and Oregon and won a national title. Instead, they had Kiffin who tried to "modernize" their offense into a spread and it played away from their strengths.

Alabama-Up until last year. They learned that being run primarily wasn't getting it done. They wanted more balance...they ended up with too much balance and forgot how strong they could run the ball.
Point is...being strong in both areas gives you the advantage of taking what the other team is giving. Stacking your deck one way or the other limits your ability to challenge the defense.
We pulled away from the passing game and admitted as such. I am very curious to see the passing game strategy moving forward.

And I was there at HW's first game in Knoxville in 80...WTF does your "points of reference" have to do with anything? I'm not taking anything away from Gurley's ability...HAD he played in all our games last season,you'd have a point.
To sit there and think we had a better RB situation last year with Gurley and Sony missing significant playing time along with KM being about 60% is absurd compared to this year IF all our guys remain relativly healthy for '15. Jeez,
we were down to #1 Chubb and #2 Douglass twice last year on the road.
