I hope Knox takes responsibility for his hands and trains hard and doesn't cop out and transfers. Does Luper have good speed, because he does have decent size. UGA just lost a kid, last name Tongue, he can run but couldn't push through their lineup.

Lumper has the longest passing completion catch on the year for us at 69 yards. I be,I’ve he has speed. Just not seen him.

Either one of them returning would be good. There’s not really a downside for them returning.

Love this quote from Drink. It will be posted in my office.
“What if you viewed every challenge as an opportunity to practice your faith and mental toughness,” Drinkwitz said, “and it wouldn’t be about the outcome. It would be about the person that you’re becoming?”

Chris Doering of the SEC Network picked Drink as SEC Coach of the Year on their preview show last night.
He and Gene Chizik have been on the Drink love train for a while now.
His Top 3 were: 3) Dan Mullen, 2) Sam Pittman, 1) Eli Drinkwitz

Does anyone know the rules about returning regarding the NFL Draft? Is there a point of no return or deadline date for a player to make a decision to return?
In other words could a player go through the draft process, not get drafted and still return? I know seniors can return and not count against scholarships which make Chiz and Hazelton no-lose if they choose to come back.

It's easy to forget how close Drinkwitz was to not coming to fruition.
From a Ben Fredrickson column two days ago...
. Remember Blake Anderson?
In case Mizzou needed another reminder that it hired the right football coach in Eli Drinkwitz, here's one.
The coach Mizzou athletics director Jim Sterk was circling in on before the curators called an unofficial intervention — a wild story recapped here with new reporting by P-D teammate Dave Matter — was . . . do you even remember?
It was Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson.
I bring it up because Blake Anderson just got hired . . . by Utah State.
With all due respect to Utah State, SEC programs should not be hiring coaches who are hired by Utah State. (Just like Vanderbilt should not be hiring a coach from the XFL. Sorry, Jonathan Hayes.)
The truth about Anderson is some at Arkansas State were excited to see him take the Utah State job, considering Arkansas State's knack for recruiting up-and-coming coaches, and the fact Anderson was in the midst of a COVID-ravaged 4-7 season.
Meanwhile Drinkwitz has defied the pandemic to blast through expectations in year one. He has the Tigers at No. 25 in the College Football Playoff ranking with five wins in their last six games entering Saturday's home game against No. 9 (CFP) Georgia.
Credit to the curators for raising heck, and credit to Sterk for adjusting on the fly.
