I like the fact that we are finally getting some of our freshmen on the field. I was glad to see Vinson get an interception, I think this will help build some confidence for him. Does anyone know if Gerald Jones will be ready to play at Georgia? Is he practicing at all? I would love to see this kid get on the field soon. What is everyone else's thoughts on the new secondary?

What? He practiced with the 1st teamers since he came on campus. Had his hammy not gotten hurt, I promise you he'd be a key component in the passing game.

Yeah, he picked up the O faster than JUCO's and Prep stars. He will be a good one.

He's just hurt. IF and that is a big if he plays this season it will be after UGA, according to everything I've heard. Unless something positive happens with his hammy, he will get redshirted.

Yeah, I knew he was probably redshirting. I was just saying he will do great things before he is done here.

It's cool. I can't wait to see him on the field next year though. He's already missed 4 games and won't play until probably Alabama anyways, he might as well go ahead and redshirt.

I say play him if he can come back in the next 3 games. Redshirt seniors that are stars are becoming obsolete with players leaving early. Let him get experience so he can be ready to start next year. Plus, he will add a new dimension to the offense now.

i dont think Jones should redshirt because we need him this season, if we had mulitiple receivers making plays then i could see y he would redshirt but right now we only have one consistent receiver

we will see, according to radio reports, jones is having problems advancing in the no huddle offense. i know he has been injured, it's the biggest lingering story we have in Volville. i just don't see him climbing up the depth this season starting so late and picking up the offense....practicing with the first team, doesn't make him a gametime success though. i'm open-minded about him, it is just what i have heard. if there is anyone i would like to see on the grass is jones and moore....more, it's me! i'm looking forward to be proved wrong.

What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen"

There is no reason to rush him. If he played and messed his hammy up real bad, then CPF would look stupid for putting him out.

I heard Fulmer on his show say that he needs to get Kenny O Neal more involved.

DUH!!! Now use him to run pass routes and not just come in for one play and run the reverse.

What happened to the "menuing system" that the offensive coaches were going to use for the younger players at the begining of the year?

Taylor has been outstanding thus far, but Rogers I think should give way to one of these new guys.

i read somewhere that O'neal was having a problem with running the routes...that he ran a 5 yard route instead of a 7...WTF give me a break! excuses....let the boy run a GO down the sideline! wasn't to hard for ole miss vs Florida

Hey VolinFlorida, I promise he is not having any problems with the no-huddle... LOL thats one of the funniest things I have heard in a while.. The no-huddle he ran in high school was pretty complicated and he ran that as a QB which is a hell of a lot harder than running it as a WR..

So is the hammy good?

I vouch for Millwood, I have never heard of him not being able to run the no huddle. Hamstrings are just such a lingering injury for WR's that they are hard to come back from that is why he is not getting on the field.
