Your articles, blog posts, chats, and Twitter coverage have provided terrific insight into our program. I am very thankful to have your perspective on our program, coaches and especially our players.

Not much more than what is already known and I know everyone says they have a guy in the know so take it for what you believe it is worth. My cousin-in-law (is that even a term?) had an apartment with Kirby Smith for a couple years while in Athens and the two keep in pretty close contact. Kirby told him that he is focused only on the NCG but has been in talks with MR and that while he likes it where he is there are things about UGA that attract him. The family atmosphere that would allow him to spend a little more home, the pull of UGA being his school, and possibly biggest being that he would have more freedom to do things his way with the defense are the plusses for UGA. He is not leaning anyway but UGA is defiantly a possibility. So if you don't hear anything at all before the NCG I would say that is a good thing for UGA.Dawgfan17noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162716793249150680.post-10247881427463936102009-12-29T19:25:06.020-05:002009-12-29T19:25:06.020-05:00Thanks as always for your wonderful blog.

What a crummy statement. Football is a team game, and records are dictated by that, not individuals. Cox did what the team needed, the OL sucked the first part of the year and we had to rely more on the pass. No doubt Stafford would have thrown many more TD passes had it not been for Knowshon. Give Cox credit,, he made some plays when we needed them or we wouldn't have won 8 games as a TEAM this year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162716793249150680.post-10965079935390548302009-12-29T13:43:28.650-05:002009-12-29T13:43:28.650-05:00David, just wanted to add my thanks for all your h...David, just wanted to add my thanks for all your hard work this year.

I am afraid these yound men are being mislead. I feel Jones, in particular, is the one who could benefit the most from another year. Lots of questions, but he seems to have the potential to develop. Next year would be a more favorable year to showcase his talents, and work on bhis coverage skills. (I think coverage skills will be Rennie's downfall as well.) Houston is another that just may have the skills but hasn't gotten the time to showcase them. UGA could very well be in the SECCG next year, and that game is the stage these guys could leap from and add mucho dollars. Bottomline, the Senior DTs are the only guys I see with much of a chance in this year's draft.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162716793249150680.post-46675757459655308652009-12-29T11:56:59.956-05:002009-12-29T11:56:59.956-05:001000 cocktails to you for your obsessive and press...1000 cocktails to you for your obsessive and press-box-food-fueled coverage of my Dawgs this season, sir.
