Stetson throws deep down field more than any qb i have ever seen at uga. I just rewatched the season highlights and Burton got a lot of deep balls. That even with him having nagging injuries early on.

It had to be money or malcontent. Its not like he got passed up or ignored.

Only reason we stopped passing as we were beating the piss out of our opponents and played young guys.

About the same as Murray. Maybe more than Stafford (because the offense stays on the field more converting 3rd downs). But I agree.

It is the offensive system. A combination of turnover at QB in 2020 (Newman, Mathis, Bennett, daniels) and turnover at qb in 2021 to go along with injuries at wr... we wanted to be a 4 wide team and turned into a team running 12 personnel a ton. The pitch to sign Burton was 4 wide and throwing the football. I don't blame monken for scrapping the plan with Stetson and calling a gameplan that wins with our strengths.
