Looks like you're a little late.

You can't be too late with wood....besides my link is his press conference.

I have read this post 4 times and I still have no clue what cohesive idea these disparate points are supposed to make.  It reads like:

1) Elephants are big.
2) Aunt Sally bakes pies.
3) Therefore, celery.

And what the fudge do Petrino's defenses have to do with the price of tea in China?

I'm not sure how fast paced Petrino O is compared to CGMs but I get the idea of how our opponents will get the ball more, so we better be able to: a. have a power run game to be able to burn some clock b. score at will c. create turnovers with Defense or e. All of the above. I prefer e.

I might get wood when we learn to block and tackle.

Someone on ITAT posted that Garner and Harbison were Rivals' 2010 recruiting champs for their respective conferences.

Dunno if it's actually true, but I like the way it sounds.

I'm still cleaning up from the SPUAT/aTm game.

My streetz tell me Rodney Garner is leaving UGA to join the Auburn coaching staff.

Only if they throw in an anytime Hartz buffet card!

I hope they can still beat Alabama.

Here's a nice little write up on the effects of losing Coach Garner from the UGA Defensive players standpoint....

Georgia players say the biggest difference is when they’re on the practice field. That’s when they notice Rodney Garner is not there screaming at the top of his lungs.

After serving Georgia for 15 years as its defensive line coach, assistant head coach and recruiting coordinator, Garner decided to answer Auburn’s call for help and return to his alma mater one day before Christmas vacation. Gone with him is a magnetic personality and mentoring relationship with more than a few of the players.

“It’s different without Coach G here,” Jones said. “Everybody knows how he is. He’s a great guy and he’s a father figure to a lot of us out here. I’m happy for him at the same time; he’s going back to his alma mater. But for us, we’ve just got to focus in and hone in.”

We've needed that loud, booming voice ever since Coach Rocker left. I remember the Tiger Talk when they interviewed DL Coach Mike Pelton for the first time and I told my dad that I hope he's got a louder voice than that on the practice field (very soft spoken, seemed to be very laid back). Then they showed him during a practice and he was somewhat lackadaisical in his coaching. I've said it before, the players attitude and the way they conduct themselves on the field is usually a reflection of their coaches. If you have a lackadaisical HC & staff, you'll get run the fuck over by a team that has a coaching staff that pisses Napalm and eats Concertina Wire.

Pelton also said sacks were for stats and unimportant.

Pelton also said sacks were for stats and unimportant.

So, putting your opponent in 2nd or 3rd and long, or getting off the field on 3rd down is unimportant?  Hmmm.  Who knew?

I do remember this statement. This didn't make me all warm and fuzzy. As JR said, who knew this was so important?

Question.  Anyone heard anything about renewed talks with Dameyune Craig?  I heard a not so fast my friend yesterday and that the deal may not be dead.

I heard that too, but I'm not sure how reliable the info was...it was posted somewhere.  My skreets are silent.

I'm kind of thinking we're about to see the rest of the staff filled out quickly now that most of the bowl games are in the books. Hoping anyway.

I think the story originated from AUC.
