Dwyer is a hand full, for sure. Believe I’d take him as first rb too. Love Curran’s heart and never-quit mentality, but don’t see him as an everydown ‘backer, due to size, in the NFL. R. Jones as the #5 safety? Kiper is good, but he wiffed BIG time here. Personally, I don’t think he is the 5th best safety @UGA.

Dwyer is in no way a “system back.” He had a really strong freshman year in Chan Gailey’s pro-style offense backing up Tashard Choice. If anything, he would likely be getting even more love if he were a featured back, and not sharing carries with his QB (or having to bust straight up the middle on most of his carries).

The thing that may hurt him more than anything is the fact that he hasn’t had to focus on his pass protection at Tech. He’ll be a very good pro though.

Everything they do in college matters now days. They will ask….will he fit our system? unless your al davis and just draft speed. Look where thats got him. A WR is the one picking up a blitz to save your franchise players ass. A WR is trying to make his way through 300 lb men that are way faster than anything you have seen in college. A WR plays in the open field. Also i would like to add that i hope he can run over DBs and he can cause he did it to ours but they are they smallest players on the field sooo…..if you cant do that then you dont need to run the ball at all

The point, SEC, is that JD is a great running back who would be putting up big numbers in anyone’s system. The nuts and bolts of what he does is the same. True, he doesn’t strictly pass block, but he does do his fair share of blocking. And most running backs at the next level are going to cut block, anyway. He should know how to do that pretty well.

SEC

Dwyer’s numbers are almost exactly the same from last year. He would need 96 yards the next two games to match his yardage from last season. He only needs one more rushing TD to match last years output. If you followed Tech last year or this year, you would have known that Dwyer turns it up in the 2nd half of the season, hence his last 4 games with and avg of 152.5 ypg and 1.5 TDs per contest. The only numbers down are his ypc avg which is only down from 7.0 to 6.6. Not to mention he does all of this without having a FB lining up in front of him to block.

There is an A back either side of the line (2), and a B back directly behind Nesbitt (1) and Nesbit (1). There are also 2 wide receivers in most of his sets. One of the A backs, or in some cases, a WR, goes in motion to wind up behind the B back when the ball is snapped. So there are two running backs lined up behind Nesbitt when the ball is snapped. Nesbitt plays QB.

The A-back does not line up behind the B-back. They are generally in motion when the ball is snapped. I don’d think I have seen one play that Gt has ran in CPJ’s offense where ther is more than one RB lined up behind the QB other than when they try to draw somebody offsides.

SEC, the A backs line up in the slot. The B back is the only one that is actually in the backfield. One of the A backs usually goes in motion, but is never lined up in the backfield. Dwyer is the best running back in the country, bar none. His numbers are not down, he is less than 192 yards or so from what he had last year. He is a beast, and will have a much better career than Knowsho.

LG, Dwyer was a true sophomore last year, and was not able to go the draft.

While I disagreed with SEC’s earlier contention that CPJ’s offense would hurt JD’s draft position, he has never spewed the venom that many on here do. His arguments are well reasoned, IMHO.

But, can we please put the “3 in the backfield” debate to bed? First, we rarely “line up” with 3 backs, but at the time the TO starts, there are usually 3 backs (QB, A-Back, B-Back) physically in the backfield. How else do we use the quick pitch to the A-Back if he is not “in” the backfield.

As for the people gloating over a dog’s death, I seriously doubt that they are doing anything other than trolling and trying to make UGA fans even more angry at Tech and Gator fans, which tells me that they aren’t really fans of either of those teams.

All right, this crap about Dwyer being a “system guy” and “anyone can get yards in that offense” is utter nonsense.

Dwyer was drafted by Chan Gailey, to be a featured back in his pro-style offense. In Tashard Choice’s senior season of 2007, a freshman Dwyer backed him up and showed as the season wore on that he was worthy of carries. That freshman season, Dwyer averaged 5.3 yards per carry while scoring 9 TDs in only 82 rushing attempts (for non-Techies, that’s roughly once every 9 carries).

Yes, he averaged 7 yds/carry last season and is over 6.5 this year, and yes, he’s the perfect back for this offense. But look at what he did before this offense, and the fact that he’s 6-1, 235 lbs, and a burner. So put that “system back” junk to bed.

I’m s selfish (want Dwyer, Morgan,et. al. to stay) old (60 but young at heart) retired high school teacher/coach who has loved GT football since 1960. I wouldn’t be blogging on this except for something Jon Dwyer said after the Wake game: “Who wouldn’t want to play for a coach like that?” If Chan were still coach and we were looking at another 7-6 season next year, I’d suck it up and tell the guys: “take the money and run… come back and get your degree later.” It isn’t that simple, though.

If Jon Dwyer were my son, here is what I’d say to him. A little bit of perspective on life and a good solution follow. Let’s face it, the NFL money is great but it’s NOT “you are set for life” great.” There are thousands of ex-pros who once got the big money who have very little today. After all, being an NFL player is simply a JOB and you are an employee. Nothing more and nothing less. As soon as you lose a little speed, you are expendable and the corporate types in control of pro teams will replace you with the next great back. You play for a “one in a million” coach and will lucky indeed to ever play for anyone like him in the NFL. You are part of a magical story at GT, something that people will remember for a long time. UGA fans still worship (and rightfully so) Hershcel Walker and the 1980 National Championship Bulldog team. Old men like me pass stories (like Walker running over All-American Bill Bates of UT) of that legend down to their sons. Do you think fans of any of Walker’s pro teams ever give him a passing thought? You are a college kid. You only get to do that ONCE! Have fun and enjoy! If that life sux for you, by all means go pro.

Now, guys, don’t be a d*mn fool about it. Take out an insurance policy for your 2010 season at GT that pays off if you have a career ending injury. Have your cake and eat it too. How cool would it be to be plaing for the 2010 national championship? If Calvin Johnson had had that chance, I bet he would have stayed at GT rather than going to the pitiful Lions.

From the wing-Ts I’ve seen in the local high schools, they don’t have the complexity of Tech or Navy’s triple option. Heck, we ran the straight-T triple option (belly series, like Bobby Dodd’s teams), and it was way simpler that that the PJ-designed spread option.

This year CPJ runs the offense with 6 A backs in the rotation, and Cox is in the 3rd set. Preston Lyons backs up Dwyer. There has been a drastic reduction of A back not running the backfield routes correctly, and the timing problems and fumbles of the tosss have dropped off dramatically.

I agreed with them that he was a great back just not #8. If Cleveland doesnt trade down they will not take him. Thats way too high. Cleveland will be in the top 5

to GT Insider, what in he!! are you talking about? Read my comments again… I said Dwyer is coming back to win a national championship..and for CPJ he would do just that…the UGA fans can say so long but they have no authority on here. For CPJ, they will all stay and especially if they win the next 3..would come back preranked no worse than 3rd.

BTW, I am a female GT grad who also covered sports on tv and radio for 12 years..What I read on these blogs is x’sand o’s being called from a bunch of wannabe’s in their lazyboys..which ends amounting to nothing 99% of the time.

Dwyer is a helluva back, but I think Anthony Allen is pretty impressive as well and think (from what I’ve seen) that he might be as good of a pro as Dwyer. Anyone agree/disagree?

While both schools have football player graduation rates that are too low, consider the typical football student-athlete curriculum at each of the schools … then you can really LYAOL.

Before anyone gives Chan Gailey too much credit at Tech for Dwyer, Nesbitt & Thomas remember he’s also the coach who thought that Reggie Ball was a college QB with talent.

I just HOPE they all stay at GT since we have a realistic shot at winning the National Championship if most or all of these players stay one more year!

Obviously, each player should do whatever is best for them, but strictly as a GT fan…………I hope they decide to stay at GT a little longer!

Rashad Jones? Rashad Jones? Is he that guy from Decatur who was so highly rated in high school that Les Miles came to his home the night before signing day? Seems like there’s a guy on the Georgia team named that who pushes people a lot and runs in after someone else has tackled the runner and kinda gets a little lick in. The same one who’s always–well not always; sometimes he’s not even in the picture–who’s several steps behind the received he’s supposed to be covering. Well,if an NFL team does draft him, they will certainly get a “fresh” body because he hasn’t used it much at Georgia. Sorriest excuse for a Georgia DB I’ve ever seen.

I love UGA fans who live in the past 8-years. UGA won 7 of 8. Last year they had won 7 of the last 7. Those last 7 didn’t really help last year did they? But keep patting your self on the back about what happened in the past if it makes you feel good.

You can still get a degree. Bobby Richardson did playing for the Yankees; Hoppy Middleton from Auburn became a doctor playing for the Lions. If the desire to get a degree is there no reason not to go pro. All of of go for advanced degrees while working.

I hated it when pros were allowed to draft from the colleges and the football factories were born. I am glad I lived in the era of you played for the school and you couldn’t be a one dimension specialist.

A few facts about Sanford Stadium (and the dog nation)
1. Seating capacity 92,678
2. Exit row capacity (in the final 2 minutes of a close game) 49,821
3. Talk about a “lack of discipline”
4. 4 tickets, 4 hot dogs, 4 Cokes, and 40,000 fans turning their backs on their team!

Im a little late on this, but i would like to let the guy named SEC know that dwyer doesnt get alot of carries…last year he had 200 carries, 50 less them moreno. This year he will likely finish with 230 or so. In his career at tech, he has never had to have more than 25 caries. He has only had one such game. He normally gets about 17-21 caries. That is less than most other backs. I just wanted to clarify that he didnt get a ton of caries

Mutts R,

I quote from your comments, [this is the] “ajc’s annual attempt to sabotage Ga Tech prior to the UGA game”. Some might have thought this particular blog was a positive reflection on Tech and how good one of their players was. How in the world is this “sabotaging” Tech’s team? Do you really believe this article is going to make him turn pro, and, on top of that, before the Georgia game? I guess since you Tech guys don’t have much experience at having a winning team, you wouldn’t recognize a compliment if you saw one.
