I may be completely wrong but does no one else see the potential in Tae Crowder. The guy is a huge RB and with time in our system I think he can turn into a reliable option

I think he can be pretty good, but if we see him a lot this year it is only because something went very wrong at the top of the depth chart.

True I really don't want to see him play this season unless he's just too good to hold back but if Michel stays healthy I think he will shine in Schotty offensive scheme

Like last season? Michel and Marshall were ready to go last year at this time as well, if I recall correctly. So was Gurley. We ended up losing all three of them for large chunks of the season. Turman was hurt all year, so he didn't get to play at all. This year, Michel and Marshall are known to be injury prone, Turman is a question mark, and Gurley is with the Rams.
Boss Bailey got hurt on the opening kickoff in 2000 and sat the rest of the year. I'd say his upperclassmen years turned out pretty alright.
Saying that we can't count on Sony simply because he got hurt in a football related injury last year is ridiculous.

He's been here for one season and it's already happened twice. If he could have made it through Spring and the G Day game healthy, I'd be with you. But he didn't.
Hopefully he's done with the injuries because I love his skill set and he's a perfect counterpoint to Chubb. We'll see.

Golden, you ever played anything or Dawg forbid, coach, at a higher level? I'm sure Michel hates it as much as you do.

I can give you my whole sports/coaching history, but what the frick does that have to do with my concern that Michel may be injury prone?
And what does Michel's and my emotions have to do with it?
Totally not following you here.

I mean yeah, RBs 1-4 could all get hurt and UGA would have a RB problem. That applies to every college football team ever.
So having K Marshall hardly playing at all last year, and still injured during G Day and some of spring practice, and also have S Michel injured last season and missed some spring time as well, applies to every team in "merica, right? Does the other teams in America have the other back up miss all of last season as well (AJ Turman)? So basically, Douglas and Chubb are our only backs to not be called injury prone.
So yeah our depth at RB is not a given, regardless of how talented we are. K Marshall might not even come back to his former self, and he already needs to improve his balance (his main weakness).

Whose RB depth would you trade ours with? Name the ncaa team and give the reasons why.

That's not typical.
Apparently for UGA, it is. We have had so many injuries here lately, that it has gotten ridiculous. How many of our guys have tore up their knees the past few season? How many of those were on non contact plays?
IDK what it is, but seriously a lot of our players get hurt and stay hurt.

We have a lot of guys w/ potential but Chubb is the only proven one. I think S Michel will be 100% alright, as that collision was just brutal and it is a shoulder injury. K Marshall is unproven after the injury, and never really came into his own before he got hurt. So again KM has the potential, but he isn't proven.
So trading based of potential, probably nobody, but on actually being healthy and able to play (which is more important) i'm sure there are some teams.
B/w I was just agreeing with the guy saying that our depth at RB isn't as great as you disneys/alters make it out to be.

Yup, you're auphan's alter. Just like him you can't answer a single direct question.

Nailed it. The sentence structure and word choice alone is a dead ringer for phan.

I also don't keep up w/ other teams, so how am I supposed to know the talent they have at RB? I know Bama's is right there with us, and a few other schools has talent like us but our biggest issue is injuries. How can you not deny this? Injuries have screwed us a lot lately, yet you act like that 3 out of 5 rbs who all missed major time last year, are guaranteed to come back and never get injuries again at UGA. Thats not how injuries work.

He is either:
-Phan
-ciye
-a techie like Chris
Without a shadow of a doubt. Somehow DGD have him access.

Sorry I'm keeping it simple for you guys, but auburphan is just dumb so he has no choice but to keep it simple.

Let me explain this so that even a mongoloid could understand...
UGA's Running Backs with a possibility of getting injured are better than everyone else's running backs who also have a possibility of getting injured.

I'm more of a dawg fan than you ever will. You have blind homerism to the Richt way, not to the UGA way. If you were showing blind homerism to the UGA way you would of wanted Richt gone after going almost a decade w/ no SEC championship. But I guess you got a framed picture of the 2007 and 2012 squads as the 'almost' national champs.
Sorry that I want more than 9-3 and occasionally winning the SEC East during the weak point in its history. Sorry that I don't like playing 2nd fiddle to Missouri for christ sakes. I'll admit that Richt is in do or die time once Eason gets here. That will be his best shot of winning it if he ever will.
Again we have the talent, that is a FACT. Only 2nd to Bama with talent in the NFL. What have we shown for it the last 10 yrs? Squib kicks, showing up flat to terrible teams (UF this past season), 1st and goal vs Clemson and not spiking the ball (2012). Plus we have had so many guys in trouble on the team, which is surprising considering Richt's personal beliefs. We really are the laughing stock of the SEC in this regard. I'm just tired of being pumped up before the season only to finish with 3 or so losses, and then when you criticize the team and coach, you get thrown under the bus.

Seriously, just read his post history. It's only 3 pages. Almost the entirety of it is talking mad shite about richt or georgia. Guy sucks.

quote:Maybe 2 of our RBs, Chubb and Michel. The others I'm not so sure. Douglas is good but not better than everyone else. K Marshall has good speed, but never could carry the load and has terrible balance. He hasn't proven himself in college, so again no he isn't better than all other running backs. Plus we don't know how he is off his latest injuries.
UGA's Running Backs with a possibility of getting injured are better than everyone else's running backs who also have a possibility of getting injured.
AJ Turman, unproven and hurt all season. How is he better than everyone's running backs again? Do i need to be dropped on my head a few times as a baby to understand this?
Also you are ignoring a major flaw w/ your logic. Once injured you almost always become injury prone. T Strudivant, M Bennent say hi!
