Players on Twitter

[Zues1]

I swear when JG re-entered the game the Oline looked less determined. On third down it appeared they choose not to block. We use to call that a look out block. Secondly does anyone see the other players trying to pick JG up on the sidelines?

What happens if the players tell Pruitt if you're rolling with JG you're rolling without us

Then I guess he’d better change his mind unless he wants to be a cowboy without a horse.

Probably what needs to be to said to Pruitt. JG is a cancer

I don't have Twitter but it has been mentioned on a couple of Radio shows this morning that players are going through and liking tweets about benching JG. Anyone with twitter that can confirm? Darel Middleton was one of the names brought up and I see his but what about other players?

I can't confirm. It's a tweet that's buried in a conversation with many people. In another words, it would be easier to track if a person knew where the original post came from. This appears to be a lengthy conversation in a thread. Tried to help, sorry, not able to. GBO!

It will be the scene in Rudy where the starters laid their jerseys across the coach's desk in solidarity for Rudy. But instead of the coach looking exasperated as he did in the movie, Pruitt will say, "A'ight", after each jersey is placed.

You know things could get better when Pruitt sits JG...Fans know what they see on the field..
Have to go with the future now...
When you keep trying to make something work that won't the fans know it...the players know it...The coach has to stop it..
When the QB of the offense can't move the ball or score the WHOLE team then begins to get the blame that may be what this is about...

Maurer is in no way a better QB than JG. It will be seen eventually in a full game. then and only then will the rest of you know what I know now that this team is dead-man-walking.

yikes - pruitt has got to be careful or he's going to lose the team

Call me crazy but that ship looks like it has sailed. This is not a cohesive team. At least it hasn't look that way at any point this season.

I agree with you, Maurer is not better. But he may develop more quickly with actual "game time." The team for sure looked more energized with him in the game. JG doesn't seem to inspire people around him. JMO

The whole team looked more energized with BM, I thought

 

[CAVPUT]

How did we go from a tweet to CJP losing the team? Good Lord!!

I'm sure some of the older players being passed by younger kids has a number of them signing out and going through the motions, but not the "team". Actually this removes all doubt about who the competitors are and who you can count on. Just another step in cleansing/flipping the roster.

Guess we'll just have to disagree. When BM entered the game things looked quicker with better decisions/ smoother. Moving down hill instead of passes behind the line of scrimmage.We saw the same thing last year when Chryst entered the game. Things were clicking.

I personally don't care because I believe as soon as a top-shelf QB lands on campus all these jokers will pound sand. with that said, I hate the idea of getting BM injured when it really doesnt matter this season. this team is gonna lose big time and no sense in getting your future backup QB hurt.

I am however in favor of letting BM start and completely play one game. But probably after this gauntlet of games. I feel like whatever QB is out there for the UGA or Bama game will suffer a career ending injury given our inept OL. I would rather that not be BM just in case he does develop.

 

[volfannbama]

Sounds like things are going in the right direction, exciting. Maybe we should blame fans

 

[Russdaddy2027]

Yeah, I really feel bad for our defense. I don't blame them though, why should they try when their efforts aren't rewarded by our offense. JG has to go.

I felt pretty bad watching UF throw all over the middle of the field w/o any orange defenders in the same zip code.

He had wild moments in his short time out there and he may not be better, but he cant be any worse....

Personally, JG had won me over a bit last year because of his toughness, before that I was not fond of the way he acted during the Tech game and it seems that JG resurfaced. He looks lost, he’s late on everything he throws and he couldn’t hit Neyland Stadium with a truck if he wanted to. It’s telling how guys look and act with him in the game and on the sidelines.

 

[OLEVOLFAN]

I honestly think For whatever reason, JG is the Biggest Cancer on this team! Something is going on in that locker room with him and i can't understand why pruitt is not seeing it. I honestly think he has no choice now but to bence him for good and let JG do what he wants to. (Transfer or whatever )

I sincerely think there's been a disconnect between JG and the otgers since day one.

I don't think Beldar ever "had" the team.

of course not, he's a true freshman that has been here since fall that can only get better. You cant compare that with a redshirt junior who has started for 3 years and continues to get worse.

 

[jeff1vol]

Pruitt won't lose the locker room as long as he TRIES something, ANYTHING to get better! If the young guys can't do it... then so be it. But for him to keep trotting Gitgone out there is the definition of insane! JG is what he is and is NOT going to get any better! How much more "film" do you need to freakin see?????

The other tough thing with Maurer is "are we going to burn his redshirt in what will obviously be his worst season"? I'm not normally a fan, but our options are rather limited.

I think we try out Shrout for Georgia. See what he gives us. Then re-assess for Miss State. If Maurer looks like the best option, let's go with him, but he's going to have a rough start.

As far as O-line, feel like it's improved enough so that the QB isn't getting murdered every game. Still far from elite, but not anything like last season.

No, I am agreeing with you. When BM came in the sidelines, players, etc looked energized and more excited. They were lifeless with JG. Sorry I wasn't clear.

I didnt even think of the whole red-shirt question.

that makes me take a hard pass on starting Maurer knowing that this team isnt going to go to a bowl game no matter who they start then there is no way I burn his red-shirt in hopes that he can develop over an additional year.

 

[MyVolsDropped]

Easy solution.

BENCH J. G.

Enough is enough!

Either bench JG or bench the Coach for not benching JG!!
