Both Williams and Smith are possible redshirts. Carson has not been healthy for a game since he has been here.

Punters and kickers aren't the only ones who play special teams.

What's your implication there?
Smith could move to D early.
Salley or Carson could bail.

No implication. Just a question. Seems like a lot but maybe it isn't.

Just look at the last two years. What more proof do you need.

I think most schools have 5 or 6. Smith is moving to defense, according to Shawn Elliott.
Ally will beat the crap out of Uga.

I don't know if it's normal or not. But it's certainly not a bad problem to have.
I know people are mentioning it, but I'd be surprised if one, or more, doesn't change positions. As none of those will graduate after this year and we should be adding at least one more in the next class.

We will have some attrition either at the end of this season or sooner. Eight is a lot. But the numbers always work out. Hopefully, the numbers will allow us another DL recruit this year.

22 position players plus punter and kicker is 24. x 4 deep would be 96 which is 11 over the ship limit. 3 deep would be 72 which is 13 under the limit. So most position should be 3 to 4 deep. If you count 2 RB positions that would be 6 to 8. If you count three WR it would only be 3 or 4 at RB. So 5 or 6 sounds about right just doing the math.
