Next 2-3 years will be good

Agree we will be better and likely win the east, but feel like 2018 will be "our year" with all the on campus and incoming talent.

the level of coaching didn't match the level of talent this year.

It matched the level of roster quality we had this year. Both will improve in year 2.

I respectfully disagree.

If we can run the football when the opponent wants to stuff the run, then we can be great.

That is how games are won.

The QB is needed for those 4th quarter drives. But without the threat of the running game... even that gets tough.

Level of Talent (Peter) vs Roster Quality (DJ) We are getting to the marrow of this.

We sure are

I agree with most of whats being said here...its East title or bust next year.

Seriously, we out gun everyone else in the East, some by a wide margin.

We are basically int he same position as Tenn was last year. We will have to see if we can do better with the hype then they did lol

Yeah man I wish our coaching would of been up to par with our talent on the Oline, then we might of done something.

I think we have the potential to be good next year, but our main problem this season was the Oline play. We are losing 3 starters and it will be hard to expect them to play well all season. I'm sure there will be some growing pains as well. However, on the positive, we do have a JUCO OLineman coming in and 2 highly rated OT freshman as well. Hopefully one or two of these guys can play well enough in their 1st year at UGA. Maybe a few returning guys can take that next step up and we can have improved Oline play.

Also year 2 for Eason can negate some of these problems, but against the elite we need to have them play at least average. I also think our WRs are a weak spot, but they could improve a lot too (as long as we limit drops). I'm not sure if we have enough talent coming in this class to improve enough at both of these positions. However, 2018 is going to set up nicely for us. I also think our DEF can take the next step up and be elite to where they will bail us out if we struggle a game or two on offense.

If you think talent alone was our issue on O-line you weren't watching the last 4 games.They were put in a far better posistion to succeed than the 1st 2/3 rd of the year

I have full confidence in pittman, but you can't fit square pegs in round holes. If we left Pyke at RG his whole career he could have been a very solid draft pick, he's a natural born guard. Out of necessity we had to play him at RT. We took a chance on our anchor being a transfer from rhode island and he sucked. So we could either play him there becuase he was the best option, or move Wynn to LT, sit catalina on the bench and waste a scholly, then have both guard spots manned by people who were just ok or unknown.

Going forward we should be much better simply because we'll have the right pieces. I'm nto saying everyone is All-SEC caliber but at least our guards and tackles will actually be guards and tackles. We have a JUCO that should alreayd be better at LT than TC due to competition. We have a RT that is taylor made for the position that is one of the best tackles we've signed this decade. We will upgrade in size and strength at center (how often did kubs get manhandled?) and have 4 or 5 solid options (big ol boys) at guard.
