Yeah. Very interesting. Are defenses just bigger and faster now? I mean, we still have the occasional guy like DMac, AP, Fournette, Zeke, Barkley... but of all those guys, I don't know if I'd quite put any of them on that level. Except maybe Barkley. Hoo boy, he's special. Maybe Zeke, but he seems like more of a grinder. 

I think McFadden comes the closest, but that was a real run of freaks. Even UNC had Kelvin Bryant at that time.

If we don't have a good season on the field it puts a lot of the class at risk. That being said I don't think UGA has backed off.

We have been good here for a while with Tank. He’s all AU as long as Caddy, TWill and CRG are here. Gus needs to have a good season to keep this class and recruiting staff in place.

Gosh, I hate to ask.  But what do you/would you classify as a good season?  It's a hell of a class and I'd hate to see Gus fired because I truly think he is building something special (as long as he keeps his staff together).

Not sure if he still feels this way but he's said a number of times 8 wins isn't enough for Gus.

It depends on two things, Who we lose to and how we lose.

Him, Boober and DJ man...behind NCAA level offensive linemen??? With DEPTH??? AND AN ASSURINGLY INSPIRED GUS MALZAHN?

I honestly think that 2020 should be the natty run between the recruiting class, schedule and QB departures. 2019 needs to be a natty run too but 2020 should be 

Our offensive line will be extremely depleted then. Also, you need to include Joiner in that mix. He could be a huge threat in the backfield as well. All our runningbacks, excluding the speedster in Shivers, will be quite big dudes.

It won't be depleted, it just won't have many of the starters we currently have. I dont think Joiner will ever get enough touches to be more than a gadget play guy but he SHOULD be a versatile threat and probably would at a lot of other places

Do you think Joiner getting a lot of carries in the first scrimmage was just an anomaly?

Worm at 5'7 is about as thick as a RB gets at that height. He is arguably pound for pound the strongest player on the team.

Most of his work was with the 2nd team. Plus after Boobee got a few carries early he was held out because the staff know what they have in him. HJ & Worm both did well with more touches Thursday. Apparently Worm had a few break away runs that were blown dead because the staff wanted to run more plays from that part of the field.

I was gonna say Shivers might be shorter but he certainly isn't smaller. Worm is jacked! You beat me to it, E.

My dad is 5'6". I past him in height in 8th grade. He used to tell me, "you can't help being short, but you can help being small". I always liked that.

how do you think he will be used in the offense?    roc thomas like?    

 

@auskip07 If you are asking about Worm that's the fans' assumption but he can do more than that. Tank is a feature back all the way.

Lots of people just assume because Shivers is short, he must be small. They're not the same.

I had a neighbor who I used to tease for being short and his best response was “I am taller than you when I am standing on your chest.”  Worm looks like the kind of beast who could make that a reality if he wanted.

He wants to and he will do it to someone before his career is up.
