i get that but at the same time.. what elite QB has shined over there? They had Jake Fromm and now Bennett.. all the rest of the higher touted guys couldn't beat them out? Or is it something else.. Still can't believe they chose Fromm over Fields
The whole JF v. JF issue was bullshit. Fromm literally left the field in OT of the NCG with a lead. The D fucked up and let Tua beat them on 3rd and 26. So, your QB just lead you to as close as you can get to a natty, and you are going to bench him for a true freshman that had never played a down in CFB? Bullshit. Fromm struggled, but that was on our shitty OC, James Coley who hasn’t landed an OC gig since he was let go. There isn’t a coach alive who would have started Fields over Fromm.
Then it was Fields who decided to leave. Had he stayed one more year, he would have been the starter. But he didn’t want to wait. That’s fine, but he didn’t win a natty at tOSU. That means he and Fromm had the exact CFP record, both without NCs.
Eason got injured and Fromm took over. Eason went to Washington where he didn’t excel and I think he’s out of the NFL. JT Daniels was just soft and Stetson, the 2 time reigning NC beat him out. Can’t see how you can blame that on UGA coaching. If anything, Monken should be seen as the QB Whisperer for taking Stetson to where he is today.
We are set at QB … we have Carson Beck, Brock Vandergriff, and Gunnar Stockton on the roster. Beck lead his team to the 7A Florida State Championship as a junior, BV won state championships in Georgia, and Stockton was a 5* who holds all the Georgia QB records. Beck likely wins the competition, and one of the other two leaves. Stockton likely takes over when Beck goes to the NFL, and then we have Puglisi already committed in 2024 (canon for an arm), and we are leading for Raola. They will likely both be in the l class and one will win out to follow Stockton. In other words, the next 5 years or so, we are fine at QB.
