Pettway goes

If we only lose those two we will be extremely fortunate.

I think Holland and KP go, if there is interest in the latter.

I'm not at all convinced KJ goes, and I think it's more than likely Stidham stays.

What about KJ or his situation makes you think he shouldn't or wouldn't go?

Kerryon strikes me as the type that would come back to try and win the SEC after falling short this year. If he does, I would hope Gus would keep him under 20 carries a game.


This right here. I really believe KJ and Pettway could pull something like Cadillac/Brown (and Chubb/Michel) and both come back next year, because they know if they are back with Stidham this team is immediately playoff contenders. I know there is more uncertainty with Pettway's future, but this just strikes me as the type of thing KJ would want to do.

He can learn, right? I'm holding out hope Gus starts rotating RBs.


I think Gus' plan for the RB's this year, if they were ever healthy at the same time, was to run KJ primarily in the 1st half and KP in the 2nd half to just pound down a tiring defense.

KP started the 2nd half in the LSU game, and got the first couple series in that half if I remember correctly, despite KJ having a huge first half. He also got most of the 2nd half touches in the Arkansas game despite it only being like 17-6 at half of that game. Honestly I would love to see that approach next year if they are both healthy.

Also, I think our schedule lines up better next year leading up to Amen Corner. Washington on a neutral field and LSU at home. If we get Stidham and an RB back, I think there is a good chance we roll into the UGA game undefeated. Might not have to sweep the last 3 games of the year if that's the case.

Agree with you there. I think he tries to do too much and he causes himself issues. If he would accept that he will be better off throwing it away or just bringing it down to secure the ball he would accomplish what you are suggesting.
