He was forced into that situation when we lost our top 5 pass catchers in 2018.

I just don’t think you can write him off as a terrible player after just one year. The fact that he came in as a PWO and is getting any playing time at all has shown he HAS improved since he came in.

And actually, he had a nice game vs Baylor. Made a nice TD catch I thought he would drop for sure.

Matt Landers had never taken a significant snap in his life in 2018 and he was starting in 2019. I’ve literally never heard of that. Malcolm Mitchell and Matt Landers are the only Georgia WRs in recent in history to start a season opener with no significant experience.

Landers wasn't a PWO. He had 25+ offers.

He wasn't "forced" into anything.
He won the starting job coming out of 2019 fall camp.Stop acting like he was suddenly thrust into the starting position out of nowhere.

Wow,you really haven't watched much CFB.You've never heard of a WR not starting after barely playing the year before?
How bout Justin Jefferson at LSU?
Played all of 2 games as a freshman with 2 receptions.Started all 13 games in '18 and had 870+ yards his next year.There are numerous other examples.
