Although I did hear Jake Fromm is planning on coming back for his Senior year.
Is that the Greg McElroy thing?

The quality I like in Jarrett Guarantano is that the guy just keeps rifling. He gets up and just rifles another one, and the overwhelming majority of these balls are accurate whether they are caught or not. He's very trustworthy in terms of throw execution. You can call 4th down plays for him knowing the ball is going to get where it's supposed to go.
He's incredibly efficient on 3rd down. That's coolness under pressure. It's reliability of his arm. It's the ability to read the field.
There are silly mistakes in there, which seems like a typical young thing. Still growing physically and isn't going to impress anyone with his strength or speed yet.
But he's got an arm on him, he's really accurate, very reliable, good feet in the pocket with very natural movement, and he's implacable.
He starts playing with a little more moxie, urgency, confidence in his athleticism with the bodies around him, then he's a guy to watch.
You nailed that kid...Watched Bama beat him to death..he kept getting up and firing away...balls of steel.
he is one to keep a eye on.
Well I hope UGA finishes the game this year and messes up that rematch.Tua is an outstanding prospect and Miami will be truly blessed to have him under center.
I also can't wait for the inevitable rematch. Duel between the 2 best qbs i've ever seen as young players. I can't wait till the season.
I so hope you are right Mathis will need another year after the surgery and Carson will be a freshmanIf Greg said it he probably talked to one of UGA's coaches, most likely a coach he knows very well and was at Alabama when Greg was the QB. Maybe even Kirby himself I don't know. I actually heard it through a chain of high school coaches - originating from the coach of one of players UGA is targeting in Alabama. A player who's already committed to Alabama.
Put it this way, Kirby and his staff like to talk a lot. Especially when it comes to recruiting.
I wont disagree with that but I still hope he stays his senior year in UGA. I think he can do more and we will see that with this tweaked offense under Coley.Fromm gives me vibes of a game manager type. Maybe an elite game manager but is that what you want in a QB?
I'm just saying that the "game manager" typology isn't really all that useful anymore.
If the "game manager" thing is code for not having that sort of Deshaun Watson, Patrick Mahomes, Russell Wilson, Carson Wentz, Aaron Rodgers, Ben Roethlisberger (when he was young), Cam Newton, Dak Prescott, Baker Mayfield ability to scramble around and make a bunch of plays outside of structure...then that's what we should be saying.
I will always lean toward those guys, but not to the exclusion of quarterbacks who look like they stand a chance of being able to hurt defenses from the pocket.
There's no reason to pretend they come in only one size/shape anymore.
