    A few? Try 7 years ago.
  2. Burt Macklin
    Who the fuck had ever said that?
  3. Burt Macklin
    Based on what? Certainly not his play in college.
  4. Burt Macklin
    Almost half the grid crashed out of the feature race today. It’s hard to believe the track condition making it bouncy under braking didn’t have something to do with that.

    Probably because Center is the position that takes the longest to learn behind QB, so it would be hard to get a transfer ready to call out all the protections and assignments and Center is a position that’s in short supply in college, so there’s not many, if any, above average centers in the portal. The staff has actively tried to have guys switch to Center every offseason to give Majors competition. It’s pretty clear they’re not in love with him, but that doesn’t mean there’s a better option available.

    The only people who thought he’d be great out of the gate are the mouth breathers on ESPN and other national sites who were trying to get clicks off claiming Ewers would transfer when Arch committed. It was obvious to anyone who watched the level of competition he played against in HS that he’d need time and his own family wants him to redshirt. On top of that he was playing behind a dogshit 2nd/3rd string OL so it’s not like he had a chance to look good regardless.
  7. Burt Macklin
    Lol wut. Everyone admits Majors isn’t good. I’m not sure ive seen anyone who’s said otherwise. I’m not saying we’ll be great at interior OL this year, but Campbell and Huston have a good shot at being our starting guards this year and both were out for the spring game. So it’s not surprising our second string guards didn’t look good up against Sweat and Murphy, especially when our offense is vanilla.
  8. Burt Macklin
    That Kings-Warriors game reminded me of a March Madness game where it just came down to which teams guards were going to keep hitting.
  9. Burt Macklin
    Yeah. It definitely looks like he’ll be able to make an impact in that role and could potentially be our Harold Perkins. We’ll have to see more of him in game to know how he’ll do as an off-ball linebacker.
  10. Burt Macklin
    True. Ewers is elite for a backup QB.
  11. Burt Macklin
    Yeah, probably a combination of UGA not throwing the ball all that much and then targeting their TE, Bowers, when they do. But I’m glad they didn’t, because it allowed us to get an elite WR.
  12. Burt Macklin
    Huh? He started every game he was healthy both years there.
  13. Burt Macklin
    Him and Murphy are the standouts. I’m still trying to process how good Murphy looked, especially compared to how much Quinn looks like the same exact QB he was last year…
  14. Burt Macklin
    AD Mitchell is so good.
  15. Burt Macklin
    It certainly seems like the staff has the same idea. He could be a real weapon as a pass rusher from Day 1. Even on deep balls, Murphy is getting the ball out extremely quick. He barely held the ball on that deep TD to Cook.
  16. Burt Macklin
    Could we, uh, maybe see some series with Murphy with the 1s?
  17. Burt Macklin
    Malik is looking amazing this game. The difference between him and Ewers is night and day in this game.
  18. Burt Macklin
    Yeah. That was terrible. So far not seeing any progress on his issues from last year. We have way too many weapons for him to force 16 targets a game to Worthy.
  19. Burt Macklin
    Oh good. More deep shots to a completely blanketed Worthy.
  20. Burt Macklin
    USC would make more sense. We don’t have an open starting spot this year, and I doubt Bear is looking to be second string this year.
  21. Burt Macklin
    Yeah, he was also putting too much weight on his back foot on deep throws last year. I was hoping his mechanics would look cleaner, but it doesn’t look like they’ve changed much from last year.
  22. Burt Macklin
    Hahaha poaching starters from UGA is too good. Hopefully we get him. He’s a stud.
  23. Burt Macklin
    Bad mechanics. He drops his elbow too much during his throwing motion, which makes the ball sail on him.
  24. Burt Macklin
    Ewers over-targeting Worthy and not reading the defense very well. Where’s all that offseason progress the 995ers have been pushing?
  25. Burt Macklin
    Having 7 guys who can play is a more than most schools have. That’s plenty and we have some really elite talent in that room.
