Who wins that trade?
I am glad we got Goede, but them.
MSU wins that trade.
RaRa is listed as splitting 2nd team on UGA's depth chart and is not listed as a kick returner or anything like that.
We traded a 2nd string guy for a first string need. And likely improved the locker room.
RaRa kinda disappeared in big games last year.
Good riddance! If it is true that he went on instagram live and tried to convince other state players to get in the portal F that dude. Take that cancer to someone else.
Agreed.Quote:

As soon as someone gets hands on him he is done. Dropped a TD pass at LSU nobody likes to talk about that puts it away
Yes this! and he dropped one against uga and another against someone else.Quote:

Would you rather have the SEC's leading passer or a guy who's never started and couldn't beat out a 2 time walk on? Rogers all day.Quote:

Spivey at 6'5" and now Goede at 6'6". Thank you mother may I have another. Yes we win that trade.
Did they go after Sam Hartman?Quote:

Will Rogers is hands down a better choice then Carson Beck is right now. With UGA's talent and system Will could lead them to a 3 peat. Beck leaves them with a big bold question mark. Now - could Beck step in and do it? Possibly. But if I'm coach, and I had a choice today it's Rogers all day long because he's a known quantity and reduces my risk significantly.Quote:

He made himself into a real QB - some of it after he even became starter in '21. As late as the UF game that year UGA wasn't sure he could carry themQuote:

I don't keep up much with other teams, but I'm guessing RaRa got out of whatever trouble he was in?

Gotcha. The way we like to eat our own just gets old - and I've been watching it with QBs since Sleepy.Quote:

Hartman didn't want to play in the SEC otherwise he'd be the starting QB for Alabama. He's trying to get drafted and he knows going against SEC defenses every week won't do it. Notre Dame offered him the best combination of money + draft potential. He's going to rack up stats, be in the Heisman conversation all year, get a Senior Bowl invite, and if things go well, be a 4th-5th round pick.Quote:

I don't know on that. I actually went to the spring game thinking that was going to be the day Mike Wright took over the QB1 reigns from Will. I know Wright played with second stringers against the first stringers, but Will was by far the best QB on the field, and I was very impressed with his athleticism and footwork.Quote:

3. Defenses playing us will no longer expect pass every play
4. Safeties now have to be involved in the run game and cant just sit back to force underneath throws
5. Wright gives us an extra package defenses will have to prep for
We will improve offensively
Amen!Quote:

He was even better in 2021 at 45.3% and a 92.4 PFF passing grade.
My biggest concern about Will is will he actually put the ball up or will he just check it down if he is somewhat unsure.Quote:

I think he should have had more confidence in himself to take the shots more personally. Your stats bear out why.
