re: Trevor Etienne

All these 5 star OLBs around and Chaz is still starting.

Either the coaching staff is clueless, or Chambliss is pretty good at what he does.

From what I remember from last year, there were multiple times that Chaz did engage with the blocker he apparently was supposed to.

but an elite player can engage and shed to make the ball carrier bounce out wider or whatever. I don't remember Chaz ever doing that. He would engage but then get stoned at point of of contact or pushed back. No consistent disruption in his game that I recall.

Chaz gets sucked in too much and loses contain, I hope he has learned to set the edge.

Whether he's pick that up or not is going to be key to Beck having a big game.

Agreed. If we have to sit back and throw it more, Beck will need time, because they will either bring heat, or sit back there with extra DB's and hope their DLinemen can get to Beck. My guess is they will use extra DB's because thye will have faith in their DLinemen. We all should understand, that as good as out OLine is, their DLine is considered just as good. It will not be an easy game to run the ball regardless.

Yes, but that premise is true for any school in the SEC

You have to anticipate at least 2 injuries in the backfield before or during the season. Automatically puts you in the rotation each game.

Being at GA, the exposure would be massive and have the ability to become the feature back.

How so? We are about to start Cash Jones or at least he is 2nd on the depth chart atm

Pretty sure Paul would greatly improve our RB situation right now

If you have contain, you are taking on, usually a blocker that’s pulling. You very much don’t want the runner to bounce outside. You want to force the runner inside where LBs and safeties will fill depending on the call. If you do it right, you take on the blocker and shrink the hole while also not allowing the runner to bounce outside, because then your fill guys have bad angles. You can shed once the runner commits, but your primary responsibility is to not allow a gaping hole or worse get sucked inside allowing the runner to bounce outside. If you do your job and the runner cuts to the hole and there is no fill, then something else likely went wrong.

Call me a sleaze ball suspend him in a game that’s not against Clemson… Tennessee Tech Sure. Is there a rule that says it has to be the first game? Or is it just 1 game

That’s really stupid.
