Nobody has ever said Delp was a better TE than Bowers.


When Bowers was out last year, it was a common theme in your less intelligent but more vocal fans. Zero drop off in talent and he was supposed to be a better blocker. Dating back to the 3 5* TE talk

Welcome to the SEC … this is how it is in this conference. Don’t take too much from that game. Georgia is still number one.

You don’t believe a different roster and staff would have an effect on a matchup? Different QB, RB,TE,WRs, Oline, different OC, might expect different results?


My opinion about your lack of credibility is based on your failures in the garbage time discussions. It’s not like I am making it up out of thin air. You failed post after post.

Depending on the day, you either have comprehension issues or have memory issues, so it’s only fair to expect some actual evidence proving this to be the case. Until then, it would be more safe to assume that is not exactly how you claim it was.

The discussion I gave you weeks to do some basic analysis in and refused? Sweetheart that’s not an issue with my credibility, it’s yours.

So I was correct in my thinking that Bowers was a generational college talent, Washington had a future as a blocking TE and Delp was going to fall short of either of them.

Funny how that worked out.

I think everyone was correct about how good bowers was, but look at you patting yourself on the back. You must think you are so special.

Enough data was analyzed to prove the point, but I can’t take all of the credit as your inability to explain what happens in garbage time was more than enough.

The expectations were 80 something games. How many did you do? Don’t shortchange yourself.

College not pro, and right about Washington and Delp. Don’t forget about them…

Realistic expectations for BOTH of us were closer to 4 than 80.

I did 4, but You couldn’t even do one.

Despite that, you would have been fine with that failure if you could just use words to explain what happens in garbage time, but You failed at that TOO.

2 fails = auto LOSS of credibility. You can earn that credibility back by correcting your failures. I am even willing to help you.

So far you haven’t shown us who you were talking with about any of them. We will assume you misremembered the specifics of the discussion for now.

So you never discussed 3 5* TEs on the roster and Delp being the most complete…. Interesting.

Are you saying I said delp was our Best TE in years?

Again, We will assume you misremembered the specifics of the discussion for now.

A simple concept like Garbage time is beyond your understanding. Hard to be more limited than that.

It's amazing that more people don't understand this. Kirby uses games like this to fuel the engine.

Delp wasn't a 5 star.

You're not correct in your memory of this... or you're making it up on purpose. People might have said Delp was the best backup last year... because he was. But nobody has ever said he was even with Bowers. Bowers was a two time Maxwell award winner.

When people were talking about having 3 five stars it was the year before. Bowers (who wasn't actually a 5 star but turned out like one), Washington (5-star TE who went in the 3rd round) and Gilbert (5-star TE bust).

Delp was a high 4-star. (ranked 51 in his class as a prospect nationally)
Luckie was a high 4-star (ranked 68)
Reddell was a high 4-star (ranked 100)
Spurlin was a high 4-star (ranked 106)

Yurosek was a 3-star TE who was the #6 TE transfer this past off-season. He was ranked in the 500's as a recruit.

UGA's lack of worry about TE isn't about the idea they'll have someone as good as Bowers. It's that they have a lot of talented TE's so expect someone to step up and be better than most other teams will have at that position.

do you have any, even just one, evidence or links to support this? We absolutely have some dumbass mouth breathers in our fanbase just like any fanbase but I would be stunned to hear even our dumbest claim that delp was "as talented" or as good as bowers.
