    Can anyone honestly say that Jordon Jefferson won't start against Oregon next year. The only way jj doesn't start will be if miles quits. Mett may play but jj will start. Count on it

    Any of you who have seen my posts for the last few weeks have figured out that I'm a big fan of Zach's; he's been a friend of our family since the day he was born. I hope I don't wear out my welcome here, but I wanted to put up a YouTube video of UGA's spring game earlier this year to let yo see what he looks like with D1 players around him:

    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egK9qmCWzzE]YouTube - G-Day Highlights: UGA 2010 Spring Scrimmage[/ame]

    Aaron Murray is #11
    Logan Gray is # 6
    Zach is #5
    Zach shows up at the 1:00 mark

    Check it out

    Yes! Keep the opponent D guessing! We've had an essentially predictable O all season. We need to keep their D-line respectful!

    He was actually a damn good catcher, but his dad made him pick one and focus on it. He could probably still play the position, did you see those two hits he took in the fourth quarter yesterday?

    Zach told his dad a couple of years ago that he was realistically setting the goal of winning a national championship. He missed on his first try yesterday by one point. He has three more tries IF he can win the starting job and stay healthy. It would not be unheard of for a senior to raise his game to such a level that he could keep the job when pressured from below.

    That would be good, too.

    Thanks. Someone was asking me about him today and I said I had not seen him and had no idea what to expect other than hearing how good he was.

    It will be SO good not to have to be on the edge of my seat every time our QB takes a snap. He looks so commanding and his execution is so crisp. I'm very excited he's a Tiger. :thumb:

    I agree. Thank you Geneinga. Your information has been accurate and politically correct. You have represented the family well over the last month or so.

    Besides his strong (and accurate) arm, his foot work and his ball fakes look very solid. When the QB can do the little things right (like make an actual good ball fake on the play action) it shows his comfort in understanding the game and what he is doing.

    2011 looks to be bright.
