A few things to nibble on before settling down with The Masters this afternoon:
- Some notes from Georgia’s second spring scrimmage here.
- Will the last Dawg standing for G-Day turn out the lights after the game’s over?
- The ACC lets its member schools conduct spring practices off campus. The SEC doesn’t. Could that become a problem?
- Here’s a more fleshed out comparison of Mike Dubose and Bobby Petrino.
- Looking at Georgia’s next generation of defensive players: “We’re learning now. Most of us on the second team, some of us rotating with the first team, we all know (the defense) the same. And when we know it perfect like they know it, it’s gonna be the same thing.”
- Time to let it go, LSU.
- I don’t think John Infante’s next big idea is going to fly.
- If this kind of thing interests you, Aaron Murray is at the top of HP’s list of SEC Heisman candidates.
- It’s not football related, but I can hardly be expected to let this news pass.
Get The Picture 
Well as long as we keep getting freshmen like Herrera, then we will be good. Its a good thing when a starting LB goes down and the freshman who replaces him is able to get the job done well enough to fight for playing time when the starter comes back.
It seems like Grantham came out with the intention of finding guys who could coach their position well. Thus far I think that has been very true. Can we name 2 coaches who have done more in less time than the LB coaches we got. Even Belin was a great hire. I still believe he single handily turned our KO/punt coverage around. At least by seasons end someone realized that if your 2 PRs are on D already, why not just leave the D out there for 4th.
The most important part of it is that the players seem to want to keep playing for Grantham. When your coaching staff has so much NFL experience of it, it is hard for the guys to justify leaving unless they are already 1st rounders or seniors.

Well Murray now has 1 more year exp. His receivers that mattered are all back except charles, which means they all have 1 more year of exp. He now has 3 5 star RBs and one of them is no longer a true freshman. Also the whole shattering the schools TD record prob. helped a bit.

The biggest problem I see with letting teams travel for practice is it really kills their arguement about a playoff and saying players are students first. Kind of hard to get in any studying if you are on the road a good part of the day then either staying somewhere over night or traveling and getting back late that night. If they are having to practice on their spring break (yes it might keep some out of trouble) you are not allowing them to get what is a big part of the college experience. I for one NEVER want to see more than a 4 team playoff but if a major part of the president’s arguement is because of the extra time they are spending away from the classroom this type rule kinda hurts that.

The U held a scrimmage in Ft. Myers last weekend. This area is a hot bed of talent and used to be in the U’s camp but since the Mighty Gayturds have advanced this area is Gayturd country. The U is striking back.

Ft Myers? Did they go to sleep on the beachfront? Now if the Gayturds have taken over Sannibel or Pine Island, I, as a fisherman, object. Otherwise, smoke’em if you got’em.

Tech being able to move for spring practice really isn’t that advantageous because their fan base outside of ATL is so scattered. Other than Gwinett county, Bangalore or Seoul, where would they go? Plus, you would have to come up with new special package deals to even get fans to come.
