I guess I haven't noticed. I've never been sold on Geathers. He needs to shed some weight for sure. Jenkins has much quicker feet so I'd rather have him in there. But, it's hard to say because Jenkins starts but on big play running downs CTG puts Geathers in at NG and Jenkins at DE. And statistically, besides Southern, we've been dominant against the run since the UF game. What I do know is Abry Jones getting hurt has been a blessing in disguise for us. Garrison Smith has been a beast at DE.

Dem boys need to hit the treadmill. Bodies are nastier than Andre Smith's bitch tits.

I disagree. When Jenkins is the nose tackle he occupies 2 blockers and the outside LBs are looking for the sack.
When he moves to DE he usually is in the backfield looking for the RB to tackle. There's a reason the pro scouts have him going early in the first round.

The reason #99 has looked good to you is bc he gets single blocked a lot due to how slow he is. Offenses take the chance to single block his slow tail to get bigger plays and a blocker on a lb

I've been watching this closely while at the Vandy and Ole Miss games, because on TV you don't get to necessarily see it. Most of the time, he was not double teamed.

In most cases, although he outsizes the opponent, it's only a couple of seconds of being slowed down before the play is already developed or moved away from him.

I've noticed that his size has been used against him, once he is off the line, that's a really big hole that is left there.
