Jacolby George deserves a game ball

[PennsylvaniaCane]

Went back and watched the game again. Made some big catches, one on a tough 3rd down slant when we were coming back. Most impressive was his blocking. Believe it was the same drive where X had a catch and tough run. JG locked up with a DB, drove him about 15 yards and then drove him into the ground. Dude had more pancakes in this game than those Manny OLs a few years ago.

two big time blocks on x's record breaker as well

He plays hard every week. We beat Clemson last year because he hustled all the way down the field to recover Brashard’s fumble in the end zone.

His hustle and effort have jumped off the screen all season to me. The blocking has been there every game. He's not running behind the play or in front of it, he's sprinting all out to be where he needs to be. He's making tough catches on money plays and it's pretty clear that he's grown a lot when it comes to not making boneheaded decisions, as well

I think he's picked his game up to a level where you hope a player can when you take a chance on someone. The growth should be appreciated. There were at least a thousand posts on here about wanting him gone or pointing out how he ****ed up

He has come out as the quintessential teammate so far; hopefully, he continues that trend. I'm sure his mettle will be tested soon enough and we'll get to see if he's really changed his stripes. I have no doubt that winning has helped his mindset

If he could control his emotions and stop getting these dumb/selfish penalties none of us wouldn’t have a bad thing to say about him. He’s a stud except for the mental mistakes.

He lost his starting spot against Ville because of that. He has not received a penalty since then.

He was clutch yesterday. I wish Sam Brown would play all out like 3 does.

Nah, we can’t be giving JG any flowers at all.

According to buffoons like @canecrazy23 he shouldn’t have blocked for X and he should’ve been flagged for the block.

Love the sentiment behind the thread. But I personally think the game ball goes to the guy who broke the all-time record for receptions and total receiving yards with a game performance of 146 yards for 3 TDs. ... That said, George played his heart out, and is such a great development story.

Lol man he wasn't the only one saying that dumb ****. Ridiculous

George held the receiver and almost ruined the play for us with an unnecessary hold, but I get it, he had a good day for him, only dropped a td pass

To be fair Richt said the same thing on a postgame other than the should have been flagged

I am convinced we would not be having this conversation about any other receivers if the number on the back of the jersey was different.

You're right. Mark Richt hates JG3 enough that he went out of his way to target JG3 on the postgame discussion about the X TD.

No you muppet I’m talking on CiS.

Richt would’ve said it about any team or player in the ACC because it’s his job.

If that was Horton there would not have been multiple threads about why it should’ve been a flag and why he shouldn’t have done it.

Kid is a baller. If he can continue to do better between the ears he'll be lethal. Him and Horton are both so smooth. Our wr corp is even better than advertised.

It definitely wasn't flaggable, was a great effort. But you cannot tell me you didn't have at least a tiny bit of anxiety for a moment there. I am super happy for JG. But I was screaming at the TV "don't do it" lol.

I was fully expecting the flag to fly out, people on here have the inability to understand that two things can be true at the same time. He’s improved his effort and play, but he still does some things that make you hold your breath and wince.
His attempt to block the guy was totally unnecessary. In no way was he catching Restrepo.

Oh I definitely was expecting a flag either on him or for holding at the line of scrimmage. I was 100% expecting a flag on us somewhere.

My point is JG is being unnecessarily villainized on one of his best games of the season by CiS nitpicking stupid **** like that.

He showed great effort there and the response from a contingent on here is “he shouldn’t have done that. He’s lucky he didn’t get flagged.”

I haven’t seen a thread on any other player this year about a play where one of our players “should have just let it go, not give that effort, he should have been penalized.”

WILD

i don't see a hold ... i can see if some want to complain about the second block ... but still a helluva effort ... in regards to drops ... the all time leading receiver in miami history had ATLEAST 2 drops yesterday, it happens, but the effort is there ... this group has shown it's not a consistent issue
