- Sorry…but the sheer # of AA athletes in Georgia is greater than Ohio+Michigan alone * - Trucker22 [22:13:47 06/06/23] (17)

  - The offseason signs are all positive. Agreed the DL is going to be the nut of it - seems like a long time since they've - Mr.C [11:39:39 06/01/23] (0)
  - The last thing the D needs is more aggression. If we see that, I think we hired Don Brown part 2.* - BayAreaBuck [11:35:49 06/01/23] (14)
    - Maybe. Brown only had one bullet in the arsenal and couldn't adapt schematically. - Mr.C [11:42:17 06/01/23] (7)
      - IMO, the D was overly aggressive last year. At times, video game aggressive. More of that is worrisome.* - BayAreaBuck [11:50:46 06/01/23] (6)
        
        Defense was improved overall, but still bad situationally, at the least opportune times. * - Mr.C [12:14:22 06/01/23] (4)

        Good analysis. It’s tough to play good D in today’s game. Even UGA’s historic 2021 D got shredded by Bama.* - BayAreaBuck [15:26:20 06/01/23] (1)
