Agree to a certain extent, but Wooten & Conley don't have the hands of White Lightning.

Would like to see Scott-Wesley in there during the UK and Ole Miss games.

Yeah I'd rather see Conley than Wooten. Conley has the 2nd best hands on the team but has gotten passed by woot for playing time for whatever reason.

I'd disagree. Especially on Conley. I'm not saying losing Bennett won't hurt us, but Conley has proven he can make big plays when he has to.

Conley would be pretty damn close. I don't recall him ever dropping a ball actually. I think Bennett definitely has the best hands but he's dropped a few this year, mainly in the missouri game.

For SC, our WRs should be King, Mitchell, and Brown, and if we do go 4 wide Conley. That's it. This game is too big to frick around and put in wooten or JSW or anyone else. It just sucks because none of those guys had the over the middle type game MB had, although Brown will be that guy now I guess.

sorry to hear he went out, I don' like seeing people go out that way, Lattimore's injury comes to mind.

Obviously this will help USC as he was y'all's leading WR.

Hopefully his route running has improved from last year. We need him to be more than a deep threat now.

Also, I hope we use more of Jay Rome and Artie Lynch now. They've dropped some passes but also made some clutch receptions.

after seeing conley's 4th quarter catch vs UF and performance against tech, i thought we would see more of him this year. from what Ive seen he looks like a big strong kid that can jump up and get the ball if needed

That sucks. He seemed like murrary's security blanket. Hate to see good players get hurt.

Wooten has proven that he doesn't that is for sure. Bennett is the go to guy for a clutch catch. That is why I said I think that responsibility will fall on Marlon Brown the rest of the year. I do think that Conley will be fine as well. Remember, Conley has been pretty clutch as well. 3rd and 10 with 1:30 left to go in Jacksonville last year ring any bells for you guys.

Yeah it seems like Wooten has been our deep threat guy this year a la Mitchell from last year.

I was just talking about his lack of sure hands. He had 2 big drops last week alone. He needs to get that ironed out, like now!

This sucks. He had the best hands on the team and always seemed to provide us with a big catch when we needed it. Hate it for the guy.

First, it's white english bulldogs dropping like flies..... Now it's white wide-receivers......

Coincidence?

Hate to lose "White Lightning". Good thing Marlon Brown has finally started to set up. I do agree that Bennett is a gamer and has great hands, but Chris Conley is another great WR with great hands.

It's that fricking ESPN cover. LSU and Bama have both had a lot of injuries this year. Now it starts for UGA.

Wow that sucks, hate to hear it. Hope he can make a full recovery.
I think Georgia can still have the type of year most dawg fans are expecting. Just like last year with us and Lattimore. I would love to play/beat UGA with both teams at full strength but that's the way it goes in football. No excuses.
