Name Uga QBs that have looked worse than D’wan

He’s the absolute basement of the list


That’s because Mathis wouldn’t sniff playing time in any other year in Georgia history. Even 2015. Even 2009. We’ve NEVER asked a 3-star QB to start in his first year. Hutson Mason was serviceable as a 5th year senior but I guarantee you he would’ve been as bad as Mathis as a true freshman.

Every QB we’ve started as a frosh has been a 5-star coming in. Eason, Murray, Fromm, Stafford.

I get that, but the worst we can do is start Mathis or Beck against the 4 worst teams in the SEC. And even if we somehow lose those games, does it really matter in the long run? Start Mathis against Mizzou. Run the ball a lot and if we go down put Stetson in. It’s time to prepare for 2021.


I would rather we not lose any more games this season. They all matter to me (dammit).

I hope we finish 9-2 and slaughter the team we face in our bowl game.

If I’m Beck I want on the field because it’s only going to get harder next year with Daniels and BVG competing. However, I don’t know that I’d want to burn a year of eligibility either wrapping up this season.

My guess is Mathis will transfer again.

Redshirts are a concept from a bygone era. Play your playmakers or they will transfer.

It’s so true. No such thing as waiting your turn, no matter how low ranked they are. The 5-stars transfer and the 3-stars transfer.

Mathis looks like crap but i say start him and build the gameplan around him. See what that does.

He still hasn't played a full game in college and if you include running he's about as bad as Stetson.

You could argue it doesn't matter as he almost certainly won't be starting next season, but i think he has a better chance at it than Bennett.

Either way this season is over so whatever. Fromm gone, Fields' ghost gone, 2020 gone, covid hopefully gone - maybe we get it right in 21'.

Bennett has no ceiling. Since this season is already over (and has been since the debacle in Tuscaloosa), I'd rather see what we have with the two shitty QBs who have upside instead of the shitty QB with no upside.
Right now it's about winning games, not individual upside. Mathis got playing time and he didn't exactly outperform his expectations.

And don't get me wrong: I want Mathis to do well and I want to see what Daniels (if healthy and willing to play) and Beck can do. I'd be fine with letting one of them start going forward at this point and throwing in Bennett if things start spiraling, but this isn't about my personal opinion. It's about the safest moves for the coaches to win games to delight the boosters and keep their contract; it's about the safe play to win games.

It's not my job that's on the line so I can say whatever I want. There's no accountability for me. CKS isn't trying to take unreasonable risks when he knows what he sees on the field every day in practice and on Saturdays.

I'm OK with that at this point since we're likely eliminated from the SECCG.

It does. We still have recruiting to think about being a losing program isn't good for us.

Kind of. We still have to try our best to win games.

He still doesn't have a full game of experience. How much worse was he than Bennett who has tons?

This is Bennetts ceiling. He's been an interception machine.

So fricking stupid. At this point, the final record this season means absolutely nothing. The only thing that matters is figuring out what you have for next year.

So you play Bennett for the rest of the year and go 8-2 this year while Alabama and Florida duke it out for a playoff spot. Congratulations. You want a cookie?

I’m not. I was going for the downvote record. Got 600 in 20 minutes before it got anchored.

Thought you guys knew me well enough to not take me seriously at this point
