Hard to argue with that...I agree...not sure that their is going to be a perfect system...there will be pros and cons.
Fields to tOSU
- Thread starter Michi_Gator
- Start date
And Eason two classes above. Plus the fact that those two were more pocket passers and he’s more of a DT, it really was a strange decision on his part. Maybe he really liked a girl who went there or something? Guys have done stuff for stupider reasons
Evidently you didn't watch Fromm last year. We don't beat ND in South Bend without Fromm. He also had a good ypa last year on top of a top 10 ypa this year. If Fields could beat out Fromm, he would still be in Athens. He probably should have put more time into learning the offense. On top of that, Fields has only started 15 high school games. Fromm started 13 his freshman year at UGA. I don't know how Fields thought he could beat out Jake his freshman year with only limited starts hisself during high school.
No one is scared of the UGA passing game. It’s why Texas sold out to shut your run game down and Fromm threw 35 passes barely getting over 200 yards in the air. LSU forced him to win the game and he couldn’t. Notre Dame isn’t exactly a team to use as the barometer.
A redshirt is sometimes good, and he needed one more than likely. Almost everyone is so impatient these days!! Heck college is the best time of your life. I stayed five years, well maybe not on purpose.
Again, it seems to be that He believed that Kirby was going to change to a more DT QB offense and obviously Fields got the feeling that that wasn't going to happen.
Has less to do with not being able to beat out Fromm.

I think any kid worth his salt believes he’s the better player and can beat whoever is there. I think the thing that seemed weird was that he didn’t seem to be a fit for the system. Maybe he was? He’s a very talented kid so who knows.
What? The ND game where he threw for 140 yards and 1 TD? Hope that wasn’t a serious post. Fromm was asked to do very little until the playoffs. That’s not even debatable. Not only was it evident watching the games, it’s supported by stats too.
Let’s be fair, though... Fromm is pretty good. When he’s on he can sit back and pick you apart. I don’t know if that’s Fields’ game
These are STUDENTS in SCHOOL. If they were just athletes, that would be one thing, but they are not.
NFL players don't get to move because a coach leaves. Pretty sure High Schoolers don't get additional transfer ability if a coach leaves. Why should college be special?
Besides, they CAN leave, they just have to sit out a year.
Yea but if we’re keeping up the charade of them being students first then the rule makes even less sense. Regular students can transfer anywhere they please as long as their grades are in order. If you want to go to a different school every year until you graduate then you can do just that as long as you get accepted.
He made several big time passes in South Bend including one for a touchdown. It was also his first college start (and 2nd game) as a true freshman. I think he became the second true freshman qb to ever win a game against Notre Dame in South Bend... pretty impressive. He threw it 29 times that night.

Ok, fine. I'm wrong. He handed off like crap against ND.
Bullshit. His family specifically asked Kirby not to change it.
He was a baseball player that was drunk and in the student section.
I actually transferred bc a school dropped my major. I didn’t have to sit out a year. And yes, they’re students but let’s not pretend they’re just like everyone else. They are at a school for a shot at a pro career and the coaches are a big reason why. If you want to play for a particular system and that option is lost for something that is not your fault, it just seems fair to be able to, if nothing else, followbthe coach you sighed with
That attitude is fine, but that would mean we need to separate the schools from the teams and make them local semi-pro teams. Because as long as you are a student athlete, you are a student athlete, not an athlete.
You actually strengthen my point, because you were allowed to transfer for an academic reason.
What is your point again? Because, as Ooz pointed out, students can transfer without restriction.
Unless you are a grad student transfer or going from an FBS school to FCS or lower, a player MUST sit out a year, though they are now allowed to transfer any time they want and the university can't stop them. They can apply for an exemption, like Van Jefferson & Shea Patterson did, but the 1 year sit out rule is still in place. https://www.cbssports.com/college-f...g-a-potential-consequence-for-undergraduates/

Racism is everywhere and it's not just one-sided. There are racists from every color and creed. I honestly don't believe there are as many as some would like us to believe, but it exists. The problem is that the media just portrays it as a "white" problem.
Well archaic just moved to Tennessee so that's an upgrade from what UcheaT HAS been running.
So GA is the most racist state in the country and no one else has any? Link? This is just a silly argument.
yes correct - lol just screwing around
You are a dawggie and I'm a gator so it felt right this AM.
