Personally, I didn't think he held the ball too long. Looked to me like he was going through progressions (something Murray had problems with for 4 years) because his first and second options were not open. Which wasn't surprising since his 1st and 2nd options were probably walk on's who had no business on the field.

Throwing to walk ons is not difficult when it is 2nd and 4 and your all everything running backs are 100% healthy.

It's much more difficult when it is 2nd and 9.

Calm down pal you mad? I'm not flamin' here just making an observation.

quote:

if not for crappy support against Nebraska he's 2-0. He also led us down from 20-0 on the road in his first start. That's gutsy. And if you were questioning his talent..he didn't shatter state of GA passing records in HS by accident. Mason can play.


I agree here totally. Were it not for the constant dropped balls (Receivers and Rain) and poor defensive (Secondary) play things would have been completely different.

Another point is he will have a healthy Gurley + three great options behind him this season. His receivers will be back and healthy but would it matter if they were out? IDK...The other receivers were able to get valuable playing time so we will be deep at receiver. So I don't want to come off as a negative person because I am aware of the weapons he will have around him.

My only questions were, will the Oline gel and will he improve his release time? And those questions were present because they will have pretty much the same front seven including Beasley who will all be coming after him trying to rattle him because they know our secondary is unproven.

Defensively I think our front seven, and I've said this before, will be one of the best in college football. Our secondary I think will be a question mark. All indications point to a marked improvement due to experience especially if Swann returns to his 2012 form or better and it won't hurt that we have CJP who has from what I've read everywhere simplified the scheme for our guys. Which leads me to my next thread post.

The big but to that is that there is a huge difference between high school and college...

You can say that about every guy on the field. I'll take Richt pleading with the guy to stay here his last year as a good sign. we have no shortage of passers on the roster

I never said that was an indication he'd win a national title, I said it shows he's talented.

GA is the 4th most talent rich state in America and hutson demolished one of its records. It doesnt' mean a thing in college, but it does show he's capable of playing the position.

Bobo supposedly moving to a more uptempo offense is gonna play to HMs strengths alot this year, he loved the hunh in HS . I remember some people questioning if he benefited from a system at Lassiter, but the guy threw 10 picks on 54 TDs his Sr yr. pretty damn nice. Wish their was film out their of the S gwinnett game that yr

Really everybody should be kissing the dudes arse for costing us D'arick Rodgers when we got him
