Since you don’t know the context these very unofficial stats occurred in it is safe to say that only an idiot can discern what all the trolling nerds get out of these stats, but then that makes sense from a bunch of jock sniffers. I know the little guys who troll with the Aaron Murray meme think they are really clever, but the truth is that not only is he the best QB at UGA, he is also the best in the SEC. But we’ll see. He sure did bliister the nerds last year didn’t he?

This Is the dumbest bunch of comments ive ever seen. Don’t even know where to begin with a guy who projects stats for an entire season based on two passes in a scrimmage. At least tide roll got some new material…

Errrr those rushing stats don’t look very promising but I’m going to look at the glass as half full and just believe that the defense is that much better! Come on Dawgs its time for greatness!

We do not need a freshman QB in 2011! Cant throw INT’s so Mason failed so far ….Lemay threw 2 passes….wow. A 1 yarder and a 66 yard busted play…so it is still Murray as starter and will be when opening day rolls around. One will likely get backup and the other will be red-shirted, maybe both will be since Murray will likely start the next 2 years at least. I mean the job is up for grabs every year and should be, but Murray has a year of experience that is invaluable and he should only be better this year. These 2 guys would set the team back if they were to start at this point. I hope both can be red-shirted and then there can be a free-for-all battle next year for starter. We do not need a freshman QB in 2011 people! This is the SEC…

What a joke these idiots are.
Did you watch LSU’s spring game?
Mett is 3rd string just like I said.
HE WILL NEVER PLAY AT LSU.
He will sit behind Jefferson this year and they have already recruited over him for next year and beyond.
Richt was right about him.
No character=no leadership=not who you want playing QB

Is everyone eating bad licorice in Athens, or have we been invaded by trolls?
Not sure how else to explain everyone being so down on Murray and ready to exalt Lemay and/or Mason above him.
In case you dolts forgot, MURRAY WAS OUR BEST PLAYER LAST YEAR!!!

Aaron Murray had the best freshman season for QBs in the entire NCAA last year, and by all accounts, enters this season as the #1 QB in the SEC. You folks chanting “Hutson Mason” and “Lemay” are out of your minds.

If you think mason and Lemay outplayed Murray you are wrong. Murray was obviously consistent and had not interceptions. Lemay’s TD was on a broken play and his other pass was one yard. Mason Looks kind of like joe cox – great numbers, too many ints

What in the hell are you morons talking about? lemay as the starter over Murray? what planet are you people from? Murray was the most consitent player on the field for us all season and had one bad game all year (Fla). He is the best ball handler at QB since tarkenton. He tied a season td mark with aj out half the season and no running game all year, not to mention the poor play of the offensive line. You people are truly idiots. I love the ones who say “from what i am hearin” or “someone close to the program told me”. You dont know crap. This is how baseless rumors are started.

WTF,
You are right on. I posted a similar comment earlier. Unless Murray gets hurt or has a shark bites his throwing arm off, he is the starter. Best freshman QB rating in the nation last year.

If Mason earns the starting position, to not give it to him, is wrong.

What is with all of the Murray haters? Give me a break. He is the one good thing about UGA football. The knuckheads that put him at the bottom of the order are fools. Murray is the starter, period. Richt isn’t going to risk what could be his career at UGA next year playing a freshman as a starter. Murray has the potential to break all the QB records if he stays 4 years. Mason had good numbers in scrimmage, EXCEPT for the 2 INTS? Come on folks. Remember Joe Cox? The guy had great numbers, until you look at his INTS. Those killed us. Lemay — he threw 2 passes. If you put a guy at the top of your list after two good passes in scrimmage, you are an idiot.

Kevin and WTF, you are absolutely right. Murray is the best sophomore QB in college football, and maybe best overall. His numbers prove that. Murray would have to be out from injury before Richt is going to play another QB. I can only see Richt playing one of the two freshman this season unless we have two QB injuries. One will likely get playing time early if we are blowing someone out, but other than that don’t expect to see them. What will be interesting is to see who gets played in that situation.
It is crazy to think that Murray did so well without going to Green all season or Charles. Think how good this season will be if Charles and King step up.
