I am on your side, but let it go.  Dillman was highly rated as a QB, not a DE, or TE, or wherever he is now playing.

He got hurt again.

my Heights Homie Deion Hair-Griffin dropped the best pass of Mason's fine evening. 

 

It'll be the last drop of his distinguished career.

Seems like these guys with great speed sometimes have to work a bit on their hands.  He will do nice things for us before all is said and done.

Actually that pass was from Quinn Shanbour not Mason Fine. It was a long sideline pass that dropped beautifully over Hair-Griffins shoulder and right into his hands......which he dropped.

Mr. Hair-Griffin needs to #1, catch the damn ball, #2 Then use your great speed to do something with it.  

When you drop balls that are laid right in your hands, the QB stops trusting you............Catch the damn ball!

If we had Ivery, do we even think Johnson is playing? It's a crowded backfield with Wilson, Smith, Hosley, Tucker, Wyche, and either Johnson or Ivery

Probably not.  But Johnson did play, and he certainly earned himself some touches next week, IMO.

The point im making is, if they are talented great.. But Dillman is talented and has played in how many games so far?

Give me someone that can be reliable and able to play in the system, not someone who is going to be bounced around...

Agreed Johnson earned himself a spot in the rotation, and maybe an even bigger spot than the staff had expected.. I know he likely topped everyone's combined belief in what we expected of him before the season even started... 

Excited about what Smith and Johnson did, and can only image what our backfield will look like when Siggers joins them.

My boy T.Moore remained perfect on PATs, adding eight which pushes him over the century mark to 107 on his career.

A 24 yard FG kick rounded out the night nicely.

I look forward to at least five-six more touchdowns per game and for Trevor's perfect PAT streak to continue. :)

Could he become the best we ever had in our history?

He couldnt do it without the holds of my boy Shanbour.

Nic Smith is going to be an all conference level player, but JaMario's first start was  against Colorado.  He went for 247 yards and 2 TD on 32 carries (7.7 YPC).  Against a B12 defense that knew we were going to run first, last, and every time in between.

Healthy freshman Jamario is still the best RB I have ver seen in a Mean Green uniform.

History lesson for the kiddos:

Rico announced as a starter, but was chilling on the sideline in sweats.   Hopefully nothing too serious.

Apparently he has lingering hamstring issues per Vito.

Lingering issue from the first scrimmage. He was held out for precautionary reasons, similar to Wheeler. Both should play a lot this week.

That'll be big. Wheeler should help a lot with the pass rush, and Bussey adds more size/speed to the outside. I saw where he was listed in the 2 Deep
