Georgia would switch ...

[Bigun]

And that is unrealistic and the height of ignorance. There is no reasonable way to expect UGA to take a leap forward this year on O, none.

Um, if you replace a terrible OC with a very very good OC and an experienced QB with talent all around you, it is likely your offense will improve. Not only that, but UGA's defense is elite enough to keep them in every game at least early in the schedule while the offense gels together. UGA is still miles ahead of everyone in the East on talent and depth. We will lose by 4TD's to them again unfortunately.

Charlie Daniels says, "I'll take that bet and you're gonna regret..." Vols went down to Georgia?

 

[Atlanta917]

Go back and look at first year OCs it's very rare they succeed on year 1. Look at teams rebuilding an Oline th hey don't fare well year 1. Look at Olines with multiple freshman starters, they dont work out often, look at offenses that replace their O system from a run based to an RPR option they dont have a great track record, look at average grad transfer QBs because they fail more than win. Look at new OCs that haven't called plays the previous year because it rare the succeed in year 1. Look at RBs 2 years removed from playing because the norm is for them to be tentative for a while.

Looking at the cumulative odds and it's more likely they take a sizable step back than improve.

3 of UGA’s OL have starting experience. The rest have seen mop up duty. Andrew Thomas was all sec as a freshman, so it’s possible Broderick Jones or Tate shore up the other spot. All of UGA’s backs have experience besides the freshman coming in. LSU had a new offensive system and broke records in year 1. Again, UGA doesn’t have to replicate LSU’s record breaking season to have improvement, just break 30 a game.

 

[SCRocket]

No I highly doubt it. We have the most recent trophies... Ya know the sec Championship and Rose Bowl. I get it, uga has highly underachieved but at least we can still make it to.. And win.. Some big games

But the game that really matters the most... not so much, correct?

Cleveland is not back. A spot start in a bowl doesn't matter. So 3 spots open. 2 are being pencilled in for guys not even on the roster yet. The LSU exception is rare and was done with an experienced team that had worked together. Newman isnt Burrow, infact he was the 3rd option at a transfer QB.

I wish I spoke bark so I could explain the magnitude of the rebuild IGA is attempting.

An OC so good he was not calling plays as an OC last year? A couple schools in the SEC improved at OC this offseason, UGA doesnt look like one.

lol what are you talking about? Cleveland is back with the team and has been for a while. Cleveland, hill, and Salyer all have starting experience. Newman isn’t burrow, the one thing you’re technically right about I guess. Not sure how he’s the third option since he’s the number 3 returning QB behind fields and Lawrence according to PFF. It’s not “barking”, it’s facts and apparently you struggle with those. Like with mystery “federal bullying cases”....

So Coley is better than Monken? Ok... Serious question, are you a D4H alter?

[Smokeyone]

No. Going cheap and promoting Coley above his failure point was a mistake. Monken is also has the hallmarks of a mistake. There were some very solid college OCs running around this offseason and UGA hires a guy that is a journeyman position coach with 4 years an an OC that led to him not calling plays last year? Dude is supposed to be an airraid coach so he gets a ACC meh QB that is a running back that completes less than 50% of his passes and a WR corp that was pretty piss poor last year. Take away that its UGA for a moment. Does that sound like a winning strategy?

Cleveland has to sit a semester for grades
Slayer started against Murray State and was forced into action against Baylor. 2 starts in 2 years.. So 1 returning starter and a guy with 2 starts.

Newman was the 3rd option, King was the grand prize for UGA (went to miami) and Stanford transfer was #2.

You are not aware of the federal bullying case? Look it up.

First, its Monken compared to Coley because that's who he's replacing. Second, Monken doesn't run an air-raid offense. lol all you do is spout off nonsense. First it was the federal case that didn't exist, then Cleveland not being with the team, and now Monken is suddenly a Mike Leach air raid disciple. You are right that he didn't call plays for the Browns, but he did in Tampa and at OK St and those offenses did pretty well. I wonder what you would've said about Brady calling plays at LSU when he didn't call plays for the Saints the year prior... According to Pro Football Focus Newman is the #3 returning QB, so I'll go with their analysis over someone who is incapable of having an honest discussion.

Cleveland doesn't have to sit a semester, he's already back with the team. Webb has a civil case against, which isn't a federal case. Newman was UGA's main target and they got him. lol King wasn't even in the portal when UGA got Newman and UGA never pursued Costello. You realize you can simply google all of this instead of just throw it out and hope it sticks?

Ok, honest discussion. Is it likely that UGA is better at OC, QB, RB, OL, or WR? If so, why?

Or is it just the hope of a fanbase? A lot of question marks, a lot of moving parts and learning curves for UGA’s offense coming into 2020. May work out, may not. Percentages say it likely won’t, but there is a chance it will.

What I wonder is if UGA’s offense takes half a season to get going does it strain that very good defense early in the year? How many losses do you rack up in the first 6 games if the offense is ‘meh’ till mid-season?

Ah the tallest midget argument. Got it. The new midget is taller than the old one ergo improvement. The problem with that argument is the new one is still a midget, a 50 something old journeyman with 4 years calling plays. When so much better was out there. 1.1 million a year for a guy that hasnt held a job 3 years and wasnt calling plays last year.

The federal bullying case (thanks Obama)


Cleveland has work to do (take and pass a full load this spring) after failing 2 classes in the fall. He can participate in voluntary workouts but his focus will be grades.

Everyone knew King was transferring. He was the favorite for a reason. He is a better passer and more developed as a QB

But I guess it's the new one is a taller midget argument again..

 

[Bigun]

At least you admit you know nothing about football by saying Monken isn't an improvement over Coley. Then again, you pick the Vols to win every game by 30 because all our recruits and players are criminally underrated or something stupid you pumpers usually spew out instead of dealing in reality.

So they got worse at offense and still scored 43 points on us and beat us by 29 points? Bodes well for us.

I’d say OC and WR are upgrades for sure while the OL is a downgrade for sure. I’m not sure about QB and RB. I think both suffered due to Coley, so the production should be easy to get back. Swift is more talented than anyone left on the roster, but the lack of creativity in the offense let teams key in on him and limit him. The main reason I think the offense will be better is because it only has to average over 30 a game for it to be improved.

 

[FLVOL_79]

Georgias QB will be better than UT's if JG is the starter.

 

[Ten_Titans]

Coming from the fanbase that's taking over the nation because they won 8 games and had a couple of decent players come in? Yeah we're the most annoying fanbase

And yet... Here you are.

You can't say we are annoying while voluntarily posting on our site... Unless you have some sort of fetish for being annoyed.

Reading comprehension is a lost art. That UGA public school system is a joke and taking my daughter out of it was an easy decision.

Did I say Coley was better? No. What I said was there were plenty of know quality college OCs out there and UGA opted for a 50 something journeyman position coach with 4 years experience split between 2 stops. Dude is an unknown at best and based on the very limited (heavy passing Air Raid type O) he is an odd fit for UGa, a slightly taller midget than Coley.

And we are done Dawgyboy. You can join the gator on ignore

How does Coley effect Newman or Beck?

 

[Atlanta917]

How does Coley effect Newman or Beck?

Not at all. Coley won’t coach either of them since he’s no longer at UGA. As long as Monken gets more than 2860 all purpose yards and 24 touchdowns out of Newman then he’ll have done a better job than Coley with the QB. If Vandagriff stays committed I doubt Beck ever plays at UGA.
