From an interview yesterday:

PAUL JOHNSON (asked if there is anything he's been encouraged by in the team's practices)
[pauses for around ten seconds] ...I dunno. Quarterback's a good player. Most days.

REPORTER:
That's it?

PAUL JOHNSON:
I haven't seen anything to make me...guys, I don't know why you think this...you guys have anointed this team as national champs. You oughta watch 'em practice.

REPORTER:
Can we?

PAUL JOHNSON:
No.

Former Georgia Tech QB wins runoff, breaks up GOP supermajority in Georgia state house.

I honestly don't remember this guy. He was in that bridge year on the Flats between the Reggie Ball Era of Distinction and Paul Johnson setting up shop. Looking at the box score from UGA/GT '07, he...didn't play great. Though beating that UGA team at that point was a tall order anyway.

Oh poo poo, it's Taylor Bennett! Yeah, he wasn't a great QB, but good on him for diluting the sea of assholes who run this godforsaken state.

Here, watch him catch a TD pass on a trick play:

Apparently didn't like the hard coaching and academics once he was at UT is what the local radio is saying. His dad never wanted him here, and apparently his ego was big about what he expected to do the moment he stepped onto the field. Apparently didn't come as easy as he hoped and wanted out.

Been described as unrealistic expectations coupled with an enabler for a parent who didn't want him there anyway.

Have you recently had a new transplant from Iowa?

I was gonna say this outdated, but our current projected starter has been hurt and held out of practice recently. They say he's just "dinged up" whatever that means. He's probably dead.

We did have a pretty crazy string of good luck with RB injuries by Iowa standards the last few years, but unfortunately the guys who stayed on the field were Mark Weisman and Damon Bullock. And even Weisman would typically start with a couple good games, get some minor injury, and then plod through the rest of the season at like 3 ypc. But they both made it to graduation, and an Iowa RB hadn't done that since like 2007

I do not remember either his speech or this internet argument (from what I can recall Jameis sounds pretty typical for a dude from that region of the country but who knows). I am sorry my words from going on two years ago wounded you in such a way. I like to think I save accusations of racism for really blatant things like "disliking the NBA"

Texas was the best team in the country for 3 years in the past decade but only had 1 championship to show for it due to ESPN, bad teams i hate, bias, Media, and they were keeping the seat warm for Baylor to win about 16-17 championships in row starting 2016 (they basically won 2 already in football and bball with aff rules)

Yeah Scooby Wright's real fun to watch. I almost feel bad that Kendricks got the Butkus over him but he's going to get his due this year unless something disastrous happens to you guys.

I'm personally hoping Myles Jack gets to do more on defense this year with Bradley calling the shots instead of just always being in safe coverage. I know Bradley's not exactly an aggressive defensive playcaller, but it's gotta be better than the super conservative defenses we've been playing in the last few years. It's kind of telling that Jack is easily one of the most athletic dudes in the country and his highlight reel from last year is like 40% him swatting 5 yard passes in man coverage.

Our non-South schedule is squishy (no P5 teams in the noncon, and we miss Oregon) so he's probably going to win all the awards and maybe get a Heisman invite as the token defensive player.

Arizona's defense needs a new nickname, though. None of the players were alive for Desert Storm!

Jack is cool and I hope he does well against all teams not named Arizona. The world needs more two-way players.
