Russ and the New Recruits

Sad to hear that, yet again, we have lost another UGA. Rest in peace, little fella. Looks like our old pal Russ will fill in for the time being. Russ is not technically qualified to be the mascot but he's really starting to grow on me.

As for the recruiting class, I think CMR reached pretty far up his sleeve to pull this one out. Congrats to their entire staff.

One question that remains from my post about recruiting last February. Will they be coached? Or will they be great athletes that are not utilized to their full potential? When they don't work as a team, the Bulldogs are a .500 team with 5 or 6 dudes that go on to get paid on Sunday. Great for them....not so great for the Red and Black. I put the onus on the coaches.

Let's go boys. Time to hit the weight room. We are no longer a proud program. We're a pretty good program with great upside. Time to coach the players up to the hype you sold them on mom and dad's couch last year. You promised them greatness, now coach them up to it.

Go Dogs.
