Cincy Vs Georgia:
|
Cincy Offense:
#9 Desmond Ridder-
QB, 6-4, 215. Rs-Jr- This is a
huge game for him. He is a small school QB trying to prove he can play in
the NFL. He has to complete passes and score points against Georgia’s
elite Defense to be a solid 2nd Round pick, and maybe slip into the end
of the 1st.
Quick in the pocket. When he loses his feet, he loses
his accuracy. Great job retreating back and drawing in the hole D-line,
and flicking it over them to the RB on a screen. He can run for the 1st,
off the option when he keeps it. Good Athlete and runner. He has become a
QB this season, but he still has the running ability he showed early in
his career. Pure Shotgun QB.
Impressive speed running outside on the Option. They
run draws for him too much on 3rd down. Good thrower who over relies on
his legs. Good job throwing to the TE.
He impressed me in a couple early game, but he disappointed me
against Tulsa. So this Game is very big for him.
#8 Michael Young
Jr- 5-10, 190, WR, GR- He can
make the big catch on 3rd down.
Grad transfer wideout from Notre Dame joined the
Bearcats prior to the 2020 season.

|
Georgia Defense:
#2 Richard LeCounte-
5-11, 190, CB, Sr– Shut Down Corner in the SEC. But what
makes him a top ten pick is his speed. Fastest CB in the Draft. Great
feet moving back. Nice hop back to cut off the outside. He half turns and
moves back before the snap so he can read the QB and WR. Puts up stats.
In five games he had 3 INTs and 4 PBU. That stat impressed me.
2020: Has
started five of nine games thus far this season...three interceptions and
four pass breakups...career highs in tackles (13) and pass breakups (3)
in win at Kentucky...earned SEC Defensive Player of the Week honors after
the game...missed the past four games due to injuries incurred in a
traffic accident...got his third pick (8th of his career) on first
offensive play of the game vs. Alabama...finished the game with five
tackles, one for lost yardage...had three tackles, two interceptions and
a pass breakup in season-opening win at Arkansas...had two stops in
limited action vs. Auburn...named to pre-season watch lists for the
Bednarik Award (collegiate defensive player of the year), Paycom Jim
Thorpe Award (nation's top DB) and the Bronko Nagurski Trophy (nation's
top defensive player)...named to the Pre-Season All-SEC First Team, as
picked by the media covering the league...named one of three team
captains for the Arkansas game.
#13 **Azeez Ojulari-
6-3, 240, OLB/Jack, Rs-Soph- Good rusher. He causes problems for the
QB in the rush. Dynamic in the rush. But he is a little thin and small.
Some think he will declare for the Draft. Love this kid. Not a lot of
notes on him, because he’s a Rs-Soph and I don’t think he declares (I’ll
be focusing on him a lot in this game;). But, Covid changes everything.
This year’s Draft looks like one of the All-Time Drafts (with all the
QBs), especially if all the young guys like Ojulari and Herring declare.
#32 Monty Rice-
6-1, 235, LB- He can get to the RB on the Screen. He gets to the RB
outside on the screen. Lean and mean hitter. Fast outside reading and
getting to the ball. Great quick feet moving back in zone drop. He is as
quick moving back and most TEs moving forward. Nice blitzer up the gut.
He can get low and use speed to power to push the OL back to disrupt the
QB. TMIWTMIH.
#10 *Malik Herring-
6-3, 280, DE, Sr- Quick. Fast. Stunning spin move. Switches sides and
position a lot. Good size and strength. Gets pressure, but doesn’t have
that knack for hitting the quarterback.
2020: Started
at end in seven of nine games to date this season...has 19 tackles and 22
total QB pressures on the season, second best among all defenders...had
four tackles, including a sack that resulted in an intentional grounding
penalty, and three QB pressures vs. Alabama...had three assisted tackles
and three QB pressures in win over Auburn...credited with one solo tackle
and added a batted-down pass, as well as a QB pressure, in season opener
at Arkansas...had one tackle, a pass breakup and four QB pressures in win
at Kentucky...one of three team captains for the Arkansas, Kentucky and
Missouri games.
#23 Mark Webb-
6-1, 200, DB, Sr- Great size. Physical in coverage on the TE. He can jam the
TE and take him out of his route right away. Great burst out of pedal to
attack forward and hit the RB to the ground. Excellent player. Dynamic on
the field. Solid 2nd Round safety.
2020: Has
seen action in eight of nine games to date, including starting
assignments in three games...has 21 total stops on the season...career-high
nine tackles in win over Mississippi State...had first collegiate
interception in third quarter of win over Auburn...credited with one stop
in win at Arkansas...had four tackles vs. Alabama...had two tackles and a
pass breakup in win at Kentucky...named one of three team captains for
the Tennessee game.
#99 *Jordan Davis-
6-6, 330, NT, Jr- Tough inside defender. He can cause a lot of trouble inside
for Offense. Plays a tough position inside on an Odd front a lot. He
takes a lot blockers from a lot of different blockers. He should stay in
school.
2020: Has
started at nose tackle in six of nine contests...credited with four
tackles and a QB pressure in victory over Auburn...had two solo stops in
win over Tennessee...had one assisted tackle in season-opening win at
Arkansas...four assisted tackles vs. Alabama...missed three games (UF,
MSU, USC) because of injury...named to Pre-season All-SEC First Team, as
chosen by media members covering the league...named one of three team
captains for the Tennessee game.
#95 Devonte Wyatt-
6-3, 318, DT, Gr-Tr- Good player. He looks like an NFL player
to me.
2020: Has
started at DT in all nine of Georgia's games to date...team's leading
tackler among interior linemen with 21 total stops...also has 14 QB
pressures...credited with two tackles and two QB pressures vs. Arkansas
and Auburn...had three stops and two QB pressures vs. Tennessee...tw o tackles
and a pair of QB hurries vs. Alabama...career high-matching seven tackles
in win at Kentucky.
#3 *Tyson
Campbell- 6-2, 185, CB, JR- Good player. I thought he was a little
disappointing. He should stay in school and be the star Number One CB
next year.
2020: Started
at corner in all nine games to date...has 26 tackles, including 2.5 for
lost yardage, and four pass breakups (tied for team high)...first career
interception was a third-quarter pick at South Carolina and was followed
by a 40-yard return...three solo stops and a key third-quarter pass
breakup vs. Auburn...had two tackles, including one for lost yardage, and
was credited with one pass breakup vs. Arkansas...also one tackle and a
QB pressure vs. Tennessee...four tackles and a pass breakup vs.
Alabama...named one of three team captains for the Auburn and Florida
games.
#74 Ben Cleveland-
6-6, 335, ORG, Rs-Sr- I like Cleveland. He’s a guy a team can
run behind. He should be a plug and play pick late on Day Two, or early
Day 3. He’s not a guy who is going to run 20 yards downfield on the
screen. Great hitter with both hands in pass pro. Frustrates DTs.
2020: Has
started at right guard in all nine games to date...selected SEC Offensive
Lineman of the Week -- the third time of his career winning the award --
after Georgia's win at South Carolina, when the Bulldogs racked up a season-best
332 rushing yards...also won the honor after Georgia's win over
Auburn...played 100 percent of Georgia's offensive snaps vs. Alabama,
Florida and Miss. State...selected one of three team captains for the
Missouri game.
#69 *Jamaree Salyer-
6-4, 325, OLT, Jr- Moves back so fast off the snap that he
has to stop and wait for the DE sometimes. Great athlete. Great quicks in
kickslide. He could a good one. He could easily declare. I will be
focusing in on him in this game.
Great feet
and speed. He’ll be assigned to block the OLB outside and get beat
inside, Then use his feet to run behind him, get
inside, and seal him. Impossible block for a guy over 50-pounds heavier
than the OLB. Right now, I think he is the best OLT I’ve seen this damn
Covid season.
2020: Has
started at left tackle in all nine games thus far this season...named one
of three team captains for the Alabama and Mississippi State
games...played every offensive snap in a 5-game stretch of the season.
#54 Justin Shaffer-
6-4, 330, OLG, Sr- Patient in position to wait for a rusher
in his lane. Day Three guy who could surprise.
2020: Has
started all nine games this season at left guard...has played all
offensive snaps in five contests to date.
#16 Demetris Robertson-
6’, 190, WR, Sr-Tr- He can make the adjustment to the
underthrown ball and snag it behind the CB. A Day Three guy who has a lot
of work to do.
2020: Has seen action in all nine games to date and has 11 receptions
for 106 yards...caught four passes for 29 yards in win over
Arkansas...caught a pair of passes in win over Auburn for 10
yards...caught three passes for 45 yards, including a season-long
31-yarder vs. Mississippi State.

Manfred’s Argument.
By Tom Mahoney
Midway in our life’s journey, I went astray from the
straight road and woke to find myself alone in a dark wood. How shall I
say what wood that was! I never saw so drear, so rank, so arduous a
wilderness! Its very memory gives shape to fear. Dante
Chapter One: Inferno.
I
awake with my bones shaking from the dolorous fear of a false life in a
dark foreboding dawn. I was dreaming of a dark forest that sapped all my
hope and was filled with all my life’s faults. This was to be my final
full day in prison. By all holy leopards, unholy lions, and the hungry
she-wolf herself. Yes, by Aries the lord of war, I shall never come back
to this arduous dreary pit. Just as Jesus was reborn this weekend, so
shall I find the true way tomorrow, on Good Friday. Thirteen of my
thirty-five years have been spent in a prison of some sort or another,
over one third of my life. Do you know what is the worst part of being in
prison? It’s not the eternal sorrow of boredom and sloth. It’s not the
fraudulent miserly life. It’s not the incontinence of freedom. It’s not
the inability to see the moon, only envy it through dirty barred windows.
It’s not the fact that the only night sky available is the wracked stars
cast through the frozen bars of my cage. It’s not that avarice is the one
true
|
virtue.
It’s not the complete denial of any independent thought. It’s not the
unconditional dedication to malice, wrath, and deceit. It’s not the
entirely relentless unoriginal fabrications of conceit that own all souls
who enter. It’s not the duality of guise that buys every face here, the
look of pure hate or inconsolable fear. It’s not the flashbacks of freedoms
foolishly flittered away. It’s not even the completely hopeless loss of all
ladies. The worst part of prison is the malicious gluttony of waiting; the
horrible unyielding dirge of waiting. Waiting to eat, to sleep, and to
walk; Waiting for the attack marked upon every back; Waiting within these
pitiless mocking walls. Waiting for any glimpse of kindness; waiting to see
the freedom of a clean peach dawn; Waiting for a decent cup of coffee.
Waiting for that look in a woman’s eye when you finally know you’ve stolen
a scrap of her soul. Waiting for: "Da-Day", for release, for
life, for liberty; It’s waiting to be human again. But for now I live on D-Block, or Dis-Block as we call it.

Northwestern Defense:
#42 Paddy Fisher-
6-4, 240. Mike, Rs-Sr- Probably the
best college LB in the past two seasons. But where does he go? Teams just
don’t pick LBs early anymore. He looks like he could be a Day Three guy.

And One.
By Tom Mahoney
Did
you ever wake up in the dark early morning and felt that everything
seemed somehow different? As though you were in another dimension, or
still in a nightmare, but you knew you were awake. You could feel that
the world had altered, or rather you knew you were no longer on the earth
you knew, but didn’t know why, how, or where? I woke like that once. It
felt as though something had kidnapped me from reality
I had existed in all my short life. I had to find my way free of the
force that had captured me, and find my way back home. I think?
It was in the spring just before my
seventeenth birthday. I was waiting for my grandfather to die. I woke up
in an ICU antechamber in the now deceased Burbank Hospital, where they
stuffed family members who had tried to stay awake all night but
couldn’t. I remember feeling like I was stuck in mud. Though it was
lethally warm spring day, there was a cold rigid wind blowing through the
halls that I had never felt before. At about two in the morning, they
brought me into this little lifeless side room where I had descended into
the sleep of the dead on this extinct tan plastic 70’s couch. As I rose,
my face stuck to the departed fabric as though it had decayed into the
left side of my face. The air seemed thin and diseased. I remember
sitting up on the obsolete couch for a while, rubbing the departed skin
off my left cheek and face. I was trying to clear my vision and remove
the horrid remnants of vinyl off my face.
|
Then
I shivered, as another flap of frozen wind seemed to cover me, like dank
dead dirt. I stood up and looked around at the rotting relic of a room.
Everything in this desolate chamber was tan or beige in some way.
Decomposing off-white wallpaper, with vertical putrefied tan and
deteriorating brown lines of different widths, laid on the walls. A wavy
picture of a wheat field blowing in the wind, with a dull soiled gold frame
around it that made it look soil colored, hung lifeless on the wall. A worm colored husk of a coffee table that looked like a
casket was buried in the corner. Even the ancient shades on the dirt brown
lamps seemed to emit a taupe light. However, the thing I remember the most
was the dead silence of the room, for some reason the air seemed completely
still: not a sound, not a sign of life, not even the feeling of my own
heartbeat and breathing. I suddenly had to get out of that room. It was as
though I had awoken in my own tomb…

Be A Citizen!
Not a Subject!
Fascist is as
Fascist does. Beware American. President Fredo is
pulling the cowardly republican Senate closer and closer to the cliff…
AND YES! THEY JUST FELL OFF THE CLIFF
AND ARE FALLING INTO TYRANNY!
Amendment I.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech,
or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the government for a redress of grievances:
#
The 1st Amendment to the Constitution is the greatest paragraph
ever written by mankind. It is the truest diagram of how to ensure a free
Country of citizens survives. But is is also a list of what to attack when you want to be a
fascist dictator. President Jerkballs is
attacking every article in the 1st Amendment. Beware subjects, or you will
be subjugated:
Tyrant!
The Trump-Tyrant has escaped reality and
now thinks he is a Commie Dictator. His mental and steroid breakdown has
turned him into an Immediate risk and immediate Tyrant threat to our
Democracy.
"A peaceful transition of power..."
is what make America, America.
To say differently is Putin-like
Treason.
A Vote for Trump is a Vote for Tyranny!
