Hopefully the new regime will stop burning them on garbage time against the Bethune of the world.

Nothing irked me more than Blandy and Folden's idiotic handling of players' eligibility.

Its time this team starts building itself right.

I saw an issue with Trayone Gray and maybe Tyree St.Louis. Other than those two, there were no other issues with redshirts. Most of the time, those kids who played were better than what was here.
 
They had to burn shirts and play people early because of probation and lack of depth effects
 
For last time Marck Richt played every single true freshman last season at UGA

Yeah that is the case with some of the kids they played. Lack of bodies and all that...but a lot of that was still from a failure on the part of Golden and crew.
So even though both of those things did play a part that doesnt remove Golden from being a big part of why those 2 issues were prevelant.

Will this guy still be here as a redshirt senior?

You need to answer that before complaining about not redshirting as a freshman.
 
Some players I can think of that Al should've redshirted...

Herb Waters
Tyriq McCord (to gain weight)
Trayone Gray
Tyrie St. Louis
Tracy Howard
Jelani Hamilton
Jamal Carter
Deon Bush (medical his soph year)
Jermaine Grace (to gain weight)
Rapahael Kirby

I'm sure there are more that should've been as well.

Everyone except the three receivers,and maybe Shaq should redshirt. Simple as that.

The most talented guys are looking for 3 and out. How does this fit into redshirting, which means 5 years. It happens, but usually because of injury. I'm not convinced by the redshirt argument.
 
I would say the following should RS from the 2016 class:

Allison
Bethal
Homer - so much depth at RB, not needed this year
Martin
Johnson
James
Haskins? - Maybe
Irvin? - Maybe

Hamilton redshirted later. I think youre thinking about a different Miami team than the one I watched. Agree totally on Gray and probably StLouis but guys like Waters and a bunch of those others were some of the better guys at their positions. Golden was looking to win games and score points with recruits by showing them he plays freshmen. Its not "ideal" for the long term strength of the program tho.
Miami is just going to start having to win a lot more games before we can be in a position to be able to keep a star recruit on redshirt.
