The Dawgs already lost one.  In my opinion, UGA is better off with Fromm and OSU is better off with Fields, and both are better off where they are.  I do think Fields would be a terrific QB at UGA obviously, and anywhere else.  I was always high on him, but I believe Fromm is better in their offense.

We also lost Jacob Eason, who is doing "OK" at UDubb, not lighting it up though.  He's 6'6" with a canon arm but apparently is not a great QB.

The two teams that have impressed me thus far are OSU and LSU, both from states where the "State" university is better known than the University of.  Penn State is another of course, and I guess Rutgers in a way.

Georgia STATE University has the largest enrollment in this state, but many are part time commuters.

obviously, we'll never know how Jacob or Fromm would perform leading the Buckeye offense

finding the right situation is paramount for players

Dan Ellington's perfect fit could be Georgia St.

I think Fromm would do fine at OSU, just not as good as Fields.  The mobility factor is an more of an advantage.  Fields is obviously a year older now, so he has "matured", so it's not a fair comparison to think back to last season where he got few chances to do much.  When he came into a game, he nearly always was used as a runner (aide from garbage time).

He could have red shirted obviously at UGA and put a year between him and Fromm, but there is some doubt Fromm will come out this year for the NFL, I think.

Obviously not.  UM kept trotting Barrett out there because of his mobility factor, and look how poorly that turned out.  :88:

It's be nice if you knuckleheads called a truce for a little while.

I've been having a conversation.  The 'fighting' has been a bit one-sided, no?
