Good god at the homers in this thread. A+ units all over the place.


That being said, Here is my breakdown of Georgia

Georgia

QB - C- Unproven bunch
RB - A
WR - B A healthy Malcolm Mitchell would help.
TE - C
Ol - D They have a long way to go

DE - B Decent group...no star power
DT - C
LB - A Our best unit but JJ and AH need to step up.
DB - F Will be an F until proven otherwise

ST - C Great in the kicking game. Terrible in the return game.

This guy gets it. "Incomplete" is a good classification.

Arkansas:

QB: C (based on pathetic last year, but knowledge of injuries)
RB: A+ (3 interchangeable, very good backs)
FB: B-
WR: C+
TE: A
OL: B+
DE: A-
DT: B+
LB: C
CB: C
S: C+
K: I
P: A

KR/PR: A+


SCAR has no chance.

Gotta prepare to face a B+ QB who has never played the college game before ... awesome.

A B+ DLine.

Hell, we were hoping y'all were going to be a little weak in those areas.

Arkansas

QB: D (until proven better, which could be)
RB: A (only question is who will step up at FB)
WR: C (Good young talent, Wilson back, Hatcher stepping up)
TE: A (At worst Henry 2nd best in conf., Derby may surprise, Sprinkle bigger,)
OL: B+ (Only reason not an A is question at center)

DL: B (Flowers and Philon, need depth to step up)
LB: C (Could be much better, have to prove it)
DB: D (New coaching could help, but got to see it)

K: C (New highly rated kicker, but Hocker hard to replace)
P: B+ (Versatile R or L rugby style Aussie)

KR/PR: C (K Marshall on KO should be good, PR up in air)

Just the way I see things right now.

You miss the open field tackling drill in UTs practice video yesterday, DBs looked a little worse than a B+ in that one.

QB: C- (poor play in '13, still no starter named)
RB: C+ (some depth, but largely unknown)
WR: C+ (Blue/Badet/Timmons is solid, but need to show improvment)
TE: D+ (JUCO kid and a true freshman - big question mark)
OL: C- (poor in '13, must show improvement)

DE: A- (good to great starters, some depth)
DT: C- (didn't look particularly good in spring but has depth)
LB: D (this group is going to struggle)
CB: C+ (good news - all of the '13 starters return; bad news - the starters in '13 were bad)

QB - C (McCrary needs to come on and mature, Robinette is doing what he can with limited arm talent, Rivers has been a nice surprise and he may start was behind some pretty good talent at LSU and has gotten good coaching during career and obvious pedigree.)
RB - B (Seymour yet to go full speed, Kimbrow looks to have filled out, Fr Dallas Rivers will get some short yardage carries. Remember the name Ralph Webb think he could be the starter before all is said and done)
TE/HB - B- (Look like its a solid group, good depth)
WR - D (honestly thought it would be an F to this point, from practice reports though the young but talented unit is really coming on, only 6 balls hit the ground yesterday according to reports. Soph Jordan Cunningham, RS Fr CJ Duncan & Soph Latevius Rayford look to be the starters. Watch for Freshman Trent Sherfield, his talent is evident and if he continues to learn the play book he may be a starter by mid season.
OL - B+ (Most talented OL possibly in VU modern history still probably mid level in the SEC though, will be leaned on early and often)

DL - B- (very experienced veteran group, still adjusting to the 3-4 1 gap scheme. Glad we open with a Temple team breaking in 4 new OL before OM)
LB - B+ (best collection of talent on the field, one spot on the field Im not worried about)
DB - B- (4 new "starters" but 3 guys back with starting experience and 6 guys that have gotten significant reps in their careers. Will see how they react in live action but promising talent on te backed. If there's one position Mason can coach it's DB, again glad we have Temple to start off)
ST - C (Punting looks solid, new FG kickers just dot know til you get live action)
