After watching highlights of both I'm convinced that Plumlee is a much better QB. Plumlee looks like the better passer and the better runner. Malzahn is trying to get Plumlee. He would be dangerous playing for Auburn so I hope he stays in Mississippi..

You seem to be forgetting Stetson Bennett IV aka the next Baker Mayfield.

Mathis has the bigger upside in my opinion.

I agree with you on this. After watching highlights between the two, I don't like how Mathis goes out of pocket and throws from the sideline and he's not that good of a scrambler either. Of course, most QBs aren't fast in the run. Plumlee on the other hand looked like he feels comfortable and confident with the defense barreling down at him and he's got good speed with his run.

However, being that, UGA asked Plumlee to blue shirt and we've got Mathis and Stetson coming in next season so I don't see Plumlee coming to UGA. And I don't want to see him with Auburn either.

My question is with Fromm as the QB starter, who do you guys think will end up being the backup next season? Stetson or Mathis? I'm thinking Stetson because he already knows our playbook.

I personally don’t think Mathis will ever start for Georgia. I don’t think Fromm’s heir is enrolled or even a senior in high school. I see Mathis transferring once he backs up a, hopefully 5*, freshman

I'm pretty sure that Stetson will be the backup.

I guess Mathis was chosen over Plumlee because Plumlee couldn't be an early enrollee but the decision makes no sense to me now that Stetson is onboard. Maybe Kirby just wanted to strike back against OSU but, if so, that would be a dumb reason to recruit Mathis.

I was always impressed with Plumlee's highlights. The kid has some wheels for sure.

Seems like every school's backup QB is leaving now if they haven't won the starting job going into their 3rd year.

I'm sure CKS will be keeping a close eye on the transfer portal throughout the season. I'm not a fan of this whole NCAA free agency thing but next year may be as good a time as any to bring one in.

This. I think the most likely case is that UGA's next starter is either at or just signed with another school. These are the times we live in.

It’d be nice for us to join that race, that’s for sure.

Saban will get the rule changed just in time to screw us.

I don't see anyone as good as Fromm who isn't currently starting somewhere.

Best bet for UGA is Fromm staying for his senior season and picking up someone like Harrison Bailey in this cycle. If we could get DJ Uiagalelei it would be amazing, but that's definitely pie in the sky.

What's the likelyhood of JT Daniels jumping ship when Clay Helton gets fired next season? That place is a complete dumpster fire.

Yea I’m not looking for a replacement for Fromm, just his heir. Daniels would be interesting considering that program has gone to shite.

I fell for the old Justin Fields trap. I am not too proud to admit that before and during the season I was rooting for Fields to have his shot.

It is down right embarrassing that I had rooted for that kid not knowing the way he was acting behind the scenes. So with that in mind it is hard for me to let myself get excited about any of the Quarterbacks coming into the program right now. I did like what I read about Mathis attitude coming into this.
