Not much mention is being made of this guy’s departure…
… and I know there’s depth and talent on the o-line, along with a coach who knows how to develop it. Still, Gaillard really came a long way from where he started, didn’t he?

Get The Picture 
He was a good one, never will have thought he would have developed the way he did. But he was apparently determined to succeed. He will be “mist”, a DGD. Also, check out Cleveland on the last part of that video…..buried his man also. Love a nasty streak in my OL. Honestly think we get better on the OL overall next year

I hope one of the young guys is ready to take Gailliard’s place. Everyone forgets the dumpster fire the middle of the line was in 2015-16 after Boss Andrews headed to New England.

Yeah he turned it on for sure. Another in a long line of excellent Dawg centers. I hope he does well in the league and gets out with his health and wealth.

Last I heard was that he was entertaining the move by putting his name in the pot. Must have gotten good news that I never heard about. There was open talk about newcomers to the position this year being trained by Gaillard. Who do we have with experience?

Should be Trey Hill’s spot.

Whomever gets the spot is going to earn it.

Entertaining what move? Pretty sure he played 4 years and didn’t have another year. But Lamont was widely thought to be a pro option by commentators (Danielson comes to mind) who called games, and other coaches, like Ed Orgeron. Still, among Trey Hill, Clay Webb and Salyer I am pretty sure Pittman will figure something out.

Trey Hill played quite a bit in the UK-GT stretch I believe

Yeah …I would think Trey is the heir apparent going into April anyway

He looked pretty good blocking as I remember. He and Fromm had some timing issues leading to fumbles but that should be ironed out with practice. I trust UGA’s coaching here.

it was Kentucky where hull played but had the fumbles. https://www.redandblack.com/gameday/after-shaky-start-freshman-trey-hill-thrives-in-relief-at/article_0b8506f4-dfcd-11e8-b520-eb78766d2ac3.html

A great center who came to UGA as a Defensive lineman

Grantham was a better OL recruiter than DL recruiter;-)

Don’t forget about Warren Ericson. He could up up winning the center spot. Hill may be more valuable at guard.

They’ll draft some guy from SD State over a Georgia player. 😉

LG is the anti Justin Fields. Came in as a heralded recruit, got buried on the depth chart, switched positions, and excelled at a high level.
