Only a millennial would go with the this instant gratification hypothesis. The bigger problem concerning UGA is that it's not 300 miles away from civilization and a huge amount of social distractions are present which means in old school language that our players sometimes get caught "reading the papers."

Alabama/Clemson are more of a boot-camp in the athletic world than the UGA experience and IMO our players get coddled and corrupted much more easily.

Do you just ignore Fromm balling out when we spread it out and move faster? You seem totally ready to shite on the coaching staff about misusing Fields but can't see they misuse From as well?

I don’t know if the Spread would have fixed what we saw yesterday. Receivers with no separation, unable to win a 1-on-1, terrible route running (go back and watch some of the “double moves” from yesterday) and most importantly, having more than Cager, Swift, and Pickens who can make a flipping catch.

Kirby gets paid millions to make sure this doesn’t happen.....MILLIONS. There’s no “oh we just didn’t show up”. It’s on the coaches if the players were flat. They should be trained to the point to where they don’t need motivation. Every game should be conquer and destroy mentality.

You don't have to be a millennial to get IG in the boonies.

There are IG and Twitter accounts from the middle of the Congo.

I said this yesterday but one of the biggest issues we have is the complete lack of interest in putting together a decent punt return game. If you want to compare, 2017 saw Hardman put together some quality returns that altered the distance needed to be covered to score and, therefore, altered the offensive strategy for the better. We are all but willing to concede driving at least 75 yards each time we get the ball and you cannot donthat with this offense and be successful against every team you play

Coaching staff has to see we have a huge lack of explosive plays. We play offense in a box twenty yards from the line of scrimmage. Notre Dame, UT, USCe all ran the same defense on us and kept us bottled up and in that box. The fact that the staff haven't changed much is cause for concern.

I thought Swift would have 3 or 4 runs of 40 plus yards by now. I think he has none.

I thought D Rob would have 3 or 4 long pass plays by now. I think he has one.

Ditto with all our other dudes. No explosive plays. I am not counting Murray State and Ark State.

Fromm needs to be a threat throwing the ball downfield. Right now, he isn't. Teams don't respect us throwing deep. Until we fix that we are vulnerable.

If you’d told me that halfway through the regular season not a single one of our backs would have a long run for a TD, is have called you a closet Gator fan.

Coaching staff should be looking at that stat and feeing their assholes tighten

I don't know why Simmons or Landers are out there so much. DRob, Dom, Cager, and Pickens are all better.

So what’s with Hankton? Our WRs should be blowing up the stat sheet.

I was telling my friend yesterday it’s concerning how we haven’t broken one long run. Poor play design, lackadaisical blocking, and frankly unimpressive running hasn’t helped.

The jet sweep motion pisses me off so much. They never hand it to Cook anymore so the defense doesn’t react to it, and UGA just loses a blocker

When they do run it it’s against the fastest defenses we play so it’s a guaranteed loss of 4 yds. I mean there isn’t an excuse for it when we run it so poorly. And when we do run it we give it to the human personification of liability Tyler Simmons.

Do y’all remember when we had Bobo/Murray and scored 35-50 points a game but still lost bc we had no defense? That offense was fun to watch. It was wide open. I miss that. This team has not been fun to watch at all.

The 2012 offense was the best I can remember us ever having save the Carolina debacle. We dominated everyone.
