Perkins, Days take reps at A-back
Greetings-
A couple notes from Georgia Tech spring practice
1. B-back Charles Perkins and quarterback Synjyn Days took reps at A-back in practice Monday. Perkins has done it previously; it was Days’ first time there. It’s not a permanent move.
“It’s just a question of, when it’s all said and done, we want to try to get our best 11 players on the field,” coach Paul Johnson said.
It’s hard to say what it means, exactly. Quarterbacks and B-backs coach Brian Bohannon noted that B-backs David Sims and Zach Laskey have had practice time at A-back, also. As an example, he said that sometimes he’ll work separately with the quarterbacks and let the B-backs go work with the A-backs under the supervision of assistant coach Lamar Owens.
“It’s a cross-train, so those guys can learn a little bit about both positions,” he said. “We’ll see how it unfolds.”
Both did fine, according to Johnson. He brought up the matter in response to a question about A-backs, first noting that Robert Godhigh, because of his knowledge of the assignments and ability to execute them, is still leading this spring.
“Deon Hill did O.K. Saturday, B.J. Bostic made some plays. Tony Zenon’s still working at it,” he said. “Those are probably the four right now, and then you get Orwin (Smith) back, and we were running some other guys in there. I put Charles in there today some at A-back. I put Synjyn in there at A-back. We had all kinds of guys in there running, so we’ll see how it goes.”
2. Guard Will Jackson is still out with a high ankle sprain. Defensive back Demond Smith returned from an unspecified injury Monday. Cornerback Louis Young is expected to return Wednesday. Tackle Morgan Bailey suffered an injury Monday.
3. Johnson said that Hill and wide receiver Jeremy Moore graded out well from the scrimmage.
“Defensively, I don’t remember anybody being really good,” he said.
Johnson and defensive coordinator Al Groh were critical of the tackling after the scrimmage, an opinion Johnson maintained after watching the video. “It’s bad,” he said.
4. No changes on the depth chart. It sounded like there won’t be any official changes until a new depth chart is released after spring practice ends.
5. Quarterbacks and B-backs coach Brian Bohannon’s evaluation of Days and Vad Lee from the scrimmage: “They did some good things and then they did some things that weren’t so good. … If they can just eliminate the negative plays, the plays that are going to get you beat, (we’ll be in good shape), because they do some really good things and make some really good plays. It’s just eliminating some of the silly stuff.”
Bohannon said that both have been making progress, and that he doesn’t “know how much it’s going to sort out in the spring, anyway. I think they’re both getting better, and that’s encouraging.”
Bohannon observed that Lee has been “starting to click a little better,” particularly since last Friday.
“Today, he actually got the option read right a few times, which he’s been struggling with,” he said. “But he just seems a little more comfortable even throwing the ball.”
Thanks for reading. I’ll have a post up on Wednesday morning from an interview with Sims about running harder into the hole.

Thank you CPJ for validating that I was correct in my commentary the other day about A-Back recruiting being weak when I commented that Godhigh should not be beating out Recruited A-Backs.
Now less than 1-week after those comments we have our own esteemed HC moving better RECRUITS to A-Back to make up for recruiting “misses” that have occurred in past Recruiting classes.
I wonder where all those people are that theorized that, “maybe Godhigh had developed greatly and was ready to produce at the BCS Level’?
Are you out there?
Crickets……………….
Even CPJ can look at what his A-Backs were doing with Godhigh beating them out and knew that he couldn’t risk going into a season with tough early games with that lack of talent at A-Back.
Amazing how I’m inside the Coach’s head for a guy that isn’t supposed to know a lot about CFB?

The issue here is one of relativeness. If Days or Perkins is better than Bostic or Hill, that doesn’t make Bostic or Hill less. It makes them less than Perkins or Days. Either way, we won’t have trouble scoring points.

These true Freshman (Gamble, Chungong) might figure into the mix during the Fall…

Once again your analysis is wrong Mr. Stein.
Hill is already set at one A-Back slot, the problem in my mind and ALSO IN CPJ’s MIND is that Godhigh (a walk-on) is beating out the other A-backs and your favorite HC sees that as a problem just like I wrote earlier this week, and that is why he is moving other players to A-Back.
I feel bad for Synjin, how can he polish his QB Mechanics when his QB coach also coaches B-Backs and now he is cross training at A-Back, I guess CPJ isn’t committed to developing him into a passing QB like he promised when he signed Synjin out of HS.
I wonder how long CPJ will keep his “promise” to Justin Thomas since he is so much more “upfront & honest” than Coach Nick Saban was during the recruiting process to Thomas & his father?

How do you know? He regularly rotates A-backs. It sure wouldn’t hurt to have more.
“I feel bad for Synjin, how can he polish his QB Mechanics when his QB coach also coaches B-Backs and now he is cross training at A-Back, I guess CPJ isn’t committed to developing him into a passing QB like he promised when he signed Synjin out of HS.”
I doubt very seriously Johnson would promise a result. It seems more likely he would promise an opportunity. Perhaps Days can spend a week at the WnE Passing Camp after he graduates. I’m certain that’ll get everything ironed out. Plus, he can learn from your depth of knowledge.
“I wonder how long CPJ will keep his “promise” to Justin Thomas since he is so much more “upfront & honest” than Coach Nick Saban was during the recruiting process to Thomas & his father?”
He committed to giving him an opportunity. I believe Thomas will get that. Nothing more was promised. How much more honest could he have been?

Are you sure FLJ?
CPJ ’s track record with QBs isn’t too good.
JaBlow & Jordy transferred out and now Synjin is being cross trained at A-Back, Tevin was never expected to be a 2 and 1/2 year starter assuming he keeps his job in 2012.
So basically the first 5 or 6 years of CPJ’s tenure at GT is riding on whether or not Vad pans out at a much higher level than Tevin.
If Vad ends up being an 8-win QB (like Tevin) for GT, then CPJ will be viewed as having failed at developing & recruiting QBs.
Lots of pressure is on CPJ to have one of HIS QB RECRUITS end up as a “big-timer”.

Giving Days a look at A-back is probably a VERY smart thing for the coaches to do. He is too good of an athlete to keep on the sidelines, but probably not one of the top 2 QB’s.
FLJ, I agree with you completely about the defense. I keep waiting to here that someone has finally stepped it up on the line, but it hasn’t happened yet. Does anyone know if they are planning on redshirting Gotsis for next season??? I think he is already 19 if I recall correctly. I’m thinking he might be the answer for our noseguard dilemma — especially once he packs on another 20 to 25 lbs. I fully expect us to have an excellent defensive group in 2013, but I am also alarmed that I am not hearing of any real advances being made by the current line-up. If they don’t improve considerably 2012 will be a looooonnnngggggggggg season for the White & Gold.

I would love to see Perkins or Days at AB. It ran so much better when we had Dwyer and Allen at AB and BB. Having the size of those two out there would help one would think and Days has shown that he is a power runner. I also think WnE fails to understand that a coach gets his best players on the field and not just at the position they were recruited for. Seriously WnE if Days cannot beat out Washington and Lee is looking better each day would you as a player rather take the #2 or #3 QB slot and rarely see the field or would you want to utilize your talent as a runner and take a RB slot?
Now on to the defense. Coach Groh maybe spend more time teaching and focusing on tackiling fundementals instead of stripping the ball. That said it is only spring ball and if I remember right CPJ has never been pleased with spring practices.

21 Jan 11 John Patrick Mason @WrecksNEffect
Since young Vad is confused I’ll help him. Vad if U don’t get 2 the NFL, it won’t matter how much U like GT & the Coaches. Also you can get the SAME BUSINESS Degree frm a sch.that WILL PASS THE BALL, that has GOOD WRs, BIG PASS-BLOCKING OLs, & “closer” to a Pro-Style O, so that U will at least have a “Some shot” @ the NFL, deep down inside Vad YOU KNOW that if U play QB 4 CPJ & GT you will have no chance @ the NFL.
That’s the reason you keep looking around Vad, you know what U R thinking deep down inside, Vandy’s HC was Md.’s OC & he’ll run a Pro-Style
The same 4 NCST & Minn., think Vad, if U R lookn @ MINNESOTA 4 cryin’ out loud, then U really don’t wanna play in CPJ’s Triple-SLOPtion Off.
Vad U R merely DELAYNG the inevitable, if U choose CPJ’s Triple SLOPtion Off., U’ll always ask yourslf could I have made the NFL@ NCST, etc
So FOR YOUR SAKE Vad, ask yourself WHY would CPJ change his Offense 4 U, when he wouldn’t change it 4 a 3-yr Starter & All-ACC QB?
Do you really think CPJ will change things up for a 18-y/o kid, when he wouldn’t change it up for a 22-y/o “grown ass man” like Josh?
You know the answers Vad, you’re just SCARED as to what DECISION will result if you answer these Questions honestly to yourself.
Of all the GT Fans that have writtn about your Recruitment, NOT-1, other than ME has taken N2 account YOUR DESIRES, 2 B a passn QB @ the NFL
So Vad WHY don’t the folks @ stink-talk and other places care about YOU realizing YOUR DREAM, being a passing QB & playing N the NFL?
So IF I’m the 1 that considers YOUR DREAMS, & they tlk about Recruit’s moms & playing QB where U can’t go Pro, whose advice is better 4 Vad?
Once U sign an LOI, Clock starts ticking, you’ll have 5-yrs. 2play 4 seasons 2 PROVE, U should B N the NFL, sign w/the WRONG sch. and you’ll LOSE one of those 5 precious years trying to transfer, those yrs. are PRECIOUS, because that’s ain’t much time 2 show NFL scouts what U got!
Of all the GT fans & COACHES & former GT PLAYERS, I’m the one talkn the most “cents”/sense, PUN INTENDED. Vad worry about your $$$ & not GT

Onto the subject at hand, Days at A-back REALLY makes sense. I could literally see Days starting at A-back in the fall. He and the big O have the perfect combination of size, speed, determination. He’s also got the experience at QB to truly know the offense. As good as Lee is starting to look, plus with Andrews in the rotation, we need to get Days on the field. Other than Big O (and maybe Bostic) no one has the upside of Days running the ball.

Obvious either I was right all along or CPJ seeks out my advice before he makes roster moves.
Instead of you putzes coming clean and admitting, “yeah Wrecks even a broken clock is right twice a day” (a back-handed way to admit someone you don’t like is correct) .
Instead of you guys doing that and showing at least a smidgen of manhood, you guys do the most feminine thing possible and keep bringing up “old sh**”.
For you guys that don’t know this, that is one of the things that WOMEN do to get on a MAN’S last nerve, to keep bringing tired, out-dated crap crap that has been discussed ad nauseum.
Not too MANLY there HT to keep dwelling on old sh** like a nagging a** WOMAN.
BTW, I was right about the A-Backs, me & CPJ; “Great FB Minds” that think alike, now if he would just recruit some TEs & FBs and get rid of this gimmicky-a** Triple-OPtion Offense!

If people start getting fired for having affairs, then roughly 50% of the working population is in line to get terminated since the divorce rate is 50% and the main reason is infidelity.
He had a wreck on on his DAY OFF, why should he even have to disclose to the University who else was involved in the accident?
Would any of us allow our employer to ask us details of a traffic accident that occurred on off time and didn’t involve a Company Car?

I am sure part of the reasoning behind firing him was for projecting a bad image of the university.

re:
WnE
Do you feel all the UGA CB’s are bust and Richt is a bad recruiter?
They are playing Malcolm Mitchell at CB this spring, so based on your logic on Days getting a run at AB, my guess is yes.
What about Nick Saban, would you say he a bad recruiter for moving Sims to Tail Back, does that mean he flopped on recruiting all those RB’s?
Grantham looks more like Chaz Bono then the Mich coach to me
______________
Richt is responding to unexpected suspensions & transfers so he is prepping Mitchell to provide emergency depth at DB.
CPJ is responding to his OWN POOR RECRUITING & EVALUATION of A-back talent that he recruited and signed off on himself.
Were it not for those suspensions in Muttville then Mitchell would still be playing WR.
The suspensions can be easily eliminated at UGA and are not guaranteed to happen every year, but CPJ ’s poor evaluation of A-Back & B-Back recruiting have happened for 4 or the 5 years that he has been at GT.
IMO the problem at GT is much worse than the problem is in Muttville.
To be honest if Muttville had GT’s drug testing “policy” then they would probably have NO PROBLEM AT ALL!

re:
WnE, you just proved my point again. You claimed that FB players took Finite Math INSTEAD of Calculus. They actually take both. Sure Survey of Calculus is not the same as Calculus I, which engineering/science majors take, but IT IS CALCULUS, and they are REQUIRED TO TAKE IT !!! ‘Nuff said !!!
________________
Is that the best you got SuperS?
You wanna hide behind semantics?
You want us to believe that that SURVEY of calculus is the same as CALCULUS?
If it were REALLY THE SAME, then it would count for Math credit for Engineering & Science Majors, the fact that it DOES NOT count for credit for Engineering & Science majors gives me pause that it is “real calculus” like GT Athletes had to take 30-40 years ago when the curricula at GT was much different for Imgt. Majors vs. Business Admin majors of today.

Hey WnE, here is the description for Survey of Calculus. Description: Functions, the derivative, applications of the derivative, techniques of differentiation, integration, applications of integration to probability and statistics, multidimensional calculus. (Sounds exactly like the Calc I and II that I took under quarters at GT.)
Pre-requisite: PRE-CALCULUS or a 550 on the MATH SAT.
WnE, you are ignorant on so many subjects, yet you continue to run your mouth even when people point out your ignorance. That is truly the definition of a Fool.

I admitted that “Survey of Calculus” is not the same course that engineering majors take, but it is STILL Calculus, and NO FB players at any other school or university has to take such a course. It’s not SEMANTICS, you fool, it’s FACT, but of course you don’t deal with facts, so you continue to deny the truth and show that you are an ignorant, UGA-loving POS.

Why would a so called GT fan know or think that?

@ Supersize,
Thanks man! You gotta cross over blogs every now and then to see what the other side is thinking. You don’t have to be totally outrageous, though. I pull for Tech when they are not playing UGA. I feel, though, that y’alls defense is gonna let you down like our o-line is gonna do to us. Maybe a few “swaps” amongst us would even it all out! Even w/our suspensions, we still got “D” players. Our o-line, unfortunately and much to my disliking, will be exposed by the better teams this year.

We ain’t all bad. I love UGA and UGA football. However, I’ve known many Tech players over the years. They’re pretty good folks (x-cept that one day a year!) LOL….and since the best receiver in the NFL came from y’all and our QB has him at Detroit, its all good. I do feel as though y’all would benefit from a REAL QB, though, not just an athlete at the position. And good Lord we can’t bring in and/or keep o-linemen! Football in our state will be relevant, and we’ll both be part of it. However, while we are whoopin’ each others butts on blogs, etc. we both have real needs to address! If not, the LSUs, Alabama’s etc. are gonna keep a leg-up!

I took him with me to the 2009 UGA game, and he handled the win with equal class….probably with more class than I handled the loss. LOL

This one statement says it all. “Johnson and defensive coordinator Al Groh were critical of the tackling after the scrimmage, an opinion Johnson maintained after watching the video. “It’s bad,” he said”. These guys couldn’t tackle last year and it sounds like they still can’t tackle. Maybe CPJ should stop by a local park and ask some Pop Warner coach to come out and teach our defense proper tackling technique. Obviously Al Groh can’t teach them since it’s been a problem for years now. I see another repeat season and a 6-6 record with a trip to the Preparation H Hemmhroid Bowl to play some other 6-6 team that will proceed to beat the crap out of us on national TV. I hope I’m wrong but it doesn’t sound good to me. I can hardly wait for September.

I sold my tickets this year, because it really doesn’t interest me much anymore, but I was there on Friday too; my annual house guest had an extra ticket, so he talked me into going. I was enjoying Freddie’s day Friday also. And regarding my friend with cerebral palsy, he told me last night that he was there on Friday too, and Freddie walked past him, and tapped him on the foot with his club and said, “Go Braves,” having seen my friend’s Braves shirt. What a classy guy !!!!

Supersize,
Then you may remember “Willie-Rob” (William Robinson) school. I was there only one year before I moved (1964.) I liked Augusta as a kid….that was where my dad went to med school. Anyhow, get a QB (a real one) and watch the improvement. (A few d-players wouldn’t be too bad either…..Groh may be totin’ too much blame for the overall lack of talent.) Maybe (as previously stated so many times) we can get an SEC competitive o-line as well. If y’alls (and our) issues are not addressed, we will be both ranting and raving after the annual battle, ‘coz neither of us will have any other big-show to go to!

old dog, I live about a mile from Willie-Rob. Not sure it is still called that or even still functional, but it is literally right around the corner from where I live. Sounds like I am an older Jacket than you are as “old dog,” I think Groh is totin’ too much blame too, but he DOES have to do something this year, or it’s time for him to go, regardless of the talent he has to work with. I don’t think TW will get it done, but I do expect him to start the first game or two in the Fall. HOPEFULLY, Vad Lee is the man and will prove it soon and finish the season as starter.

I reckon’ I’m easier on Tech ‘coz one of our high-school guys was a star there and even though we were UGA folks, we went to watch him play at Tech some. (This was when I was a middle-schooler.)
I did end up going to UGA, but going to see _ _ _ _ _ play was a treat…(big-time little back from a small school!)
