Georgia Notes
(5/16) TE duo of Delp & Luckie is a CFB top unit
(5/2) Still an unquestioned CFP team, but natty?
(4/7) QB Stockton CFP starter, team rallied for him
(4/7) LB CJ Allen/DT C. Miler top 10 via PFF
(4/7) Kirby sticking w/ Bobo at OC is a choice
(3/22) Run game awful LY, WR drops. Lots to correct
(3/18) RB Frazier good LY, talented/unproven depth
(3/18) WR - Branch/Thomas (portals), FR must hit
(3/18) OL returns 3/5. Underperf LY. Lots of talent
(3/18) Def still v good LY, DL rebuild, talent all over
