I haven't been back since. The complete absurdity of so many dawg fans around Stetson Bennett should be studied by psychologists.

Pretty sure you went back when I call you out for being banned (which you were not)

Yeah, you have to walk on eggshells if you present a different opinion.

I figured. That was one of my dumber arguments on here.

His just won back to back natties so we're probably going to be talking about him for a long time. What about this bothers you? Please be specific.

Kirby preaches you’re either elite or you’re not. I just wish he held the qb position to that same standard,

This was your hot take and entry to this thread. About the current QB.

We have 90 minutes of tape on him and I have not said one negative thing about him bc he went up against two of the better defenses in the country last year. But this is why I believe my first comment that I made about the qb position

Many people believe that Stetson was greatest qb at UGA of all time proves the point I’ve been trying to make. While Stet wasn’t great in 2020, he was good in 2021 and great in 2022. But I believe(my opinion) the qb room is the one weakness kirby has. We watched him pick every other qb besides Stetson for years. Didn’t win the job over Mathis in 2020 after Jamie Newman bailed on us. Lost his job later that year to JT when he started the peach bowl against Cincinnati. JT kept his job for the next few games the following season only to lose it to injury. And even after Stet helped his team win a NC, Kirby still went out in the offseason and pursued Caleb Williams(I did not hear that from Kirby himself but it was rumored). Am I the only one who saw all of that? And I won’t mention Justin Fields bc everyone knew he had a higher ceiling than Fromm. And then Beck deciding to stay in college for another year. Why would you not want him returning to start a 3rd year? I’m hoping it’s bc Gunner is the real deal bc I honestly believe Kirby would have pursued a QB in the portal if he didn’t.

But that’s the last thing I’ll say about the mailman Pete.

This has been a fun debate for years but I can sum it up with the following. .

We’ve had a number of QBs come through the system under Smart with exceptional talent. Eason, Fields, Daniels, Beck, etc. on paper looked much better than Stetson. However, I would argue that the reason Stet s the GOAT is that he had more moxy and heart than any QB we’ve had at UGA in my memory with maybe the exception of Murray. Even when he fricked up or did something to put us behind, I’ve never seen a QB that could will us back into the lead like Stet. The only way CKS figured that out was in actual live gameplay….which is the only time that comes out. Fromm had it too but not at the level of Stet.

Sure he had a whole team but if you watch the clutch 21 and 22 games it really is amazing we pulled some of those out.

ETA: sure we needed OState to miss their FG but Stet put us in the lead. So IMO that’s in the D for letting dickhead run for 50 yds to get them in FG range in that drive.

Would you hold the QB room to a higher standard than Kirby?

Kirby saw the response from the team with him on the field. That's why Stetson became the undisputed starter

And, similar to Fromm, how do you replace a guy that’s winning? Short answer…you don’t.
