i hope we dont have to use 4th down conversions to handle vandy. if we do it will be a long miserable fricking season

He might go for it on fourth down against Vandy for the hell of it, like the Peach Bowl. I don't think we will need to go for it until Georgia or Florida

It's better to get some of those in earlier when it won't matter just so Georgia and Florida can't feel confident in those situations.
Then run Scott.
Then run Scott.

I hope so.I do think the Tight End will get balls his way if the running game gets going.The running game should play a huge part in opening up the play action with the backs we have.Also,I believe the off. line will be dominating with depth and a attitude coming off of last seasons let down that I believe was caused by some not so good reads from a young QB with alot of pressure and not enough experience due to the RP situation that was handled extremely well by players and staff.Now I need oxygen.Oh yeh,Black will be a beast that will not be stopped and the return team will be a welcome suprise.Thanks for listening.T Shaq out

I'm hard on Miles about his tongue, mostly in jest, but his "gambler" label is a misnomer. Truth be known, he practices those plays and one think he doesn't get credit for is knowing when to pull the trigger.
You can't just pull those on a whim, he has a feel for the game in the sense of when they have a high percentage chance of working.
A team practices those and never knows if they'll have an opporunity to use them but if the situation presents both an opportunity and a need, you have that in your reportoire.
Fact of the matter, when those decisions (When, where, etc.) are made they're not a "gamble" and the proof of that- and his sixth sense- is in his success rate.

he tells the team before the game that they will probably have to go there. (2007 UF) he doesn't do it often, but they know ahead of time what may be coming. also stats show it is the right thing to do. LM is ahead of his time. as the stats click up more coaches will go for it on 4th and short.
