Good Lord Jamoral Graham looks bad out there.

I will withhold any negative thoughts about our performance in honor of our #1 ranking.

He's just young and trying to make too much happen. I wouldn't be surprised to see Tubby back there against Kentucky.

Yeah...I think he has a lot of talent. I am guessing at this point his confidence is shot. He also had a drop at one point that would have been a big gain...or maybe Dak just overthrew him a bit. I can't remember on that one.
ETA: On another point...after watching the replay that fake punt would have worked if Richie Brown doesn't slip and fall.

Think it was Gus Walley? But yeah, the receiver fell down, the fake was actually designed well.

Pretty sure it was 39 that slipped. By the time he got back up, Cooke was screwed.

It was a screen. He could have possibly made a play out of it but there were several defenders in the area. It was also shortly after the muffed punt situation so I think everyone was just already pissed at him.
In regards to the punt, he just needs to learn to let that ball go. He caught several in the pouring rain that weren't easy catches. He makes me nervous as shite but I think it's more of just learning when to pick his spots more than anything else.

I think in the end he will be a really good return man but at this time I think he is just too young and inexperienced in big time games. Can't have him back there in games that could possibly determine a SEC championship game or National title IMO

No doubt one thing to work on during the Open Date.

Actually when he can return it, he's decent and shows promise. It's the decisions to let it go or fair catch it. He's a true freshman and he's learning. I'm just glad we have the firepower and Defense to overcome it.
Other than kickoffs, our special teams scare the hell out of me.

Our special teams makes me cringe. Hope they can either get it together or we don't need them, but that is wishful thinking.

He's looked very solid until these last two weeks
He's shown minor flashes that he can get north quick and even looked very confident and sure on receiving the punts.
Like stated above, he is just a true freshman. He will learn to pick his returns. He will be very good for us the next 3 years. You can bet on that.

Exactly. On the muffed punt vs. Auburn, he made the right decision to field the ball on the bounce IMO but he should have signaled for a fair catch. He was trying to make a move before he caught the ball, which resulted in the fumble.

Jameon went through the same phase but this isn't a "learning year" for our team. We could put McKinney (jk) back there for all I care as long as he doesn't average one muff a game..
Posted on 10/13/14 at 11:09 am to Hardy_Har
Yeah I don't care if we just fair catch everything at this point. I just don't want to give a team any easy points.

i loved the way mullen handled it though as opposed to how saban would have

The team bailed him out on both goofs. We gave up 0 pts and 3 pts, I think. In years past, those would have been 7 each and would have started an avalanche of bad things.
Graham did have a drop, but he does show flashes of brilliance. Like Tubby's mistakes in his first year, we will put these behind us and be damn glad JG is a dog.

Yeah I think Graham will be a very good receiver.

Jameon did it all year after having that breakout 250+ yd game against Memphis so I ain't worried about Graham. Just the points..
Gabe Myles is doing a jam up job and showing some true elusiveness.Worth mentioning.

Jameon should be back for the next game. I really thought he would be back for this one.
