What does our 2 deep OL / DL look like in 2025

Man oh man. Someone talk me off the ledge…

Championship football teams are built on the line of scrimmage. There isn’t much if any middle ground here to debate.

We are getting absolutely gutted on the OL and DL. Freshman rarely contribute in a big way at those positions….really your 3rd year guys are where the elite play starts.

What’s our plan here? Seems like next year could be absolutely brutal…

QB room

Guys the reason we have to
pick up a QB either now our spring transfer is because we actually need one. Montgomery is going to rehab all year and may be ready by camp. The room
needs somebody with experience …..and will compete to elevate Gunnar and Pugs. I will be shocked if we don’t get one. Who it will be is up in the air. Just know we are reaching out to many you may know to see if their is interest. In my opinion and my sources the staff understands this and the timing of the portal created some obstacles. We were not going to bring a transfer in with Gunnar having his first start. Those ascetics would be horrible. Just be patient the CCC and Kirby know what they are doing. 😜.

The only concern I have other than that is OT. Freeling has the ability but his development is being hampered by subpar developer. (My opinion). The Jackson kid is so freaking athletic and long. If he reaches his potential we are looking at a Top 5 tackle in the draft. I’ve watched practice and that dude has got all the tools and more! I was the director of a high school All american game! Trust me I know what they look like!!! Hell had Saquon and Lamar Jackson on the same team. I knew those two creatures were special from the first time seeing them. lol. I also think we have some big bodies that will play RT.

The Wilson move hurts in my opinion because we are stacked at G but center is a different discussion.

I would watch out for the freshmen OL ( Gaston) that played in Armour game. I have a buddy that is their talent evaluator and he said he is massive great feet and has a bad disposition. He said by far best OL their this week. Yes better that those 5 stars.

I do think we need to take a look at OT in
portal but they $$$$!!

On a side note. He said Griffin is a damn freak. He said best interior DL he has seen since Jalen Carter. He said quote “ Twitchy as ****, competitive dawg and athletic as hell”.

Development at the end of the day is what we need at OL. Talent is on campus!!!

Is the expectation that staffing changes will occur after roster changes are done?

I'd be shocked if we didn't have some change in staff, we do every year. Just wondering if this is roster management time to be followed by staff management.

I'd also like to say: the fact that free agency and HS signing occurs during the season is insanely stupid. Just as stupid as acquiring players before sorting out their coaches.

“Home Boy” Syndrome…

A big part of our fan base (at least on the vent) has a condition that it needs our qb to be one of “homeboy”…I don’t even mean that they have to from Georgia …I mean they need to be from Warner Robins…Tiger…Blackshear…we are obsessed with having the next “Redneck Rudy”….

I doubt Ewers is really interested in coming here …I don’t necessarily think he’s an absolute shock…

But I don’t know how to objectively defend anyone who thinks that a red shirt sophomore with 1.5 starts behind him is a better option than 30 plus starts at one of the biggest programs in the country in a system that’s actually very comparable to what we do.

Rashada and Pugs are NOT

Going to play. Unless there's an injury, there is no scenario where either of them will see the field.
The staff that sees all the qbs everyday and has for months on end has deemed that Gunner is the best qb. No you cannot just "get a guy ready" in 3 weeks; this is not NCAA 2025. You also don't even want 3 qbs taking snaps in practice. Gunner needs ALL of them.
There's a pretty good to really good chance that he won't play well because he hasn't played at all and now we're playing really good teams. Even with that, crying for the backup qb is NOT the answer. We're going to have to live with Gunner for better or worse.
