Murray working overtime with UGA’s young receivers

[FlatEarth]

Mark Richt watched closely at the receivers on Tuesday during one drill when they tried to haul in passes with one hand.

And with good reason.

Georgia is missing Justin Scott-Wesley and Malcolm Mitchell for the season with knee injuries, Michael Bennett for an indefinite period and probably Jonathan Rumph this week as well with a strained hamstring.

Aaron Murray and what’s left of the Georgia wide receivers are working overtime this week.

With redshirt freshman Blake Tibbs and walk-on Michael Erdman stepping up into the rotation, joining Chris Conley, Rantavious Wooten, Rhett McGowan and Reggie Davis, Murray is trying to get in synch with them in the passing game.

He said he worked after practice with the receivers on two or three routes on Monday and planned to do additional route work Tuesday evening.

“Those young guys, especially at the receiver position are going to have to work a little extra harder this week,” Murray said. “We already started to get some extra time in yesterday working on some routes after practice. We’re going to have to do that every day this week. Work before practice, during practice and after practice to make sure their timing is on and they know what I’m looking for and I know what they’re looking for.”

Conley is teaching while also catching passes.

“It’s learning on the fly because they’re not only just learning it, but they’re running it and having to execute it,” Conley said.

Sounds like the Falcons WR situation. :surrender

Yeah, wtf! Both teams were 5 yards from a title shot and both teams are now depleted at the WO position.

The good thing is we have 2 great TE's and when Bennett went down last year, we were able to utilize them and ride them to Atlanta.

Wonder where he will be ranked in the Heisman discussion after throwing for 350 and 4 TD's on Saturday. :thought

I know I'm being a homer, but if he pulls another great game out of his ass with a depleted offense, he will definately be a serious contender......it's funny how the media bashes a player and giving him the moniker of not being able to finish, to Mr. Clutch in a matter of a few games.

Against a team that ranks 114th in passing defense?

You know as well as I that don't matter. All they really look at are stats and the fact that muzzy is ranked

Aaron Murray isn't Peyton manning and look what they did to him. He's the best to ever play the game but HE can't win the big one. Despite having done it. Fuck the saints
