Jake Fromm declares for the NFL, Cade Mays declares for Transfer Portal
Two incidents, two moments, two…..Georgia?
After a ton of Bulldog wailing and gnashing of teeth, Georgia quarterback decided that he’d had enough of Sanford, and declared for the NFL. For someone who has got worse as the season has gone on, his decision was questionable to say the least.
For us, Fromm – after being taken in the 3rd round at best – is going to be a backup quarterback for a while. He’ll get his chance in 2022, and he’ll do fine. Or he’ll be another Chase Daniel, and make a ton of money as a back-up.
Georgia fans love Fromm though. He came in for Jacob Eason after Easton got injured, took the starting job by the scruff of the neck, and walked away with three straight SEC East titles, one SEC Championship, as well as a trip to the National Championship Game. He went 1-3 in terms of the ‘big games’.
For us, Fromm’s ascension from nothing is an exciting story. It was the good, young Christian kid warding off the show-off five-star big-mouth, and forcing him to the North West, home of hippies, rain, and Pac-12 teams. He arrived, went from game manager to someone making great throws, before regressing to being a so-so quarterback before leaving for richer pastures.
Speaking of richer pastures, please can someone tell me what in the hell is going on with Cade Mays?
A consensus future NFL first-rounder, Mays decided to throw in his name to the transfer portal after being one of the most dominant offensive linesmen in the world of college football.
He will be using Thomas Mars, the same lawyer that managed to get Justin Fields from Sanford to Ohio State without needing a year off. Mars has gone on the record to say he’s confident this will happen again.
Apparently going to Tennessee (his father played there), Mays is leaving because of what seems like a family gripe against the institution, after his father had a part of his finger amputated after getting it stuck in a chair during his son’s recruitment.
You surely couldn’t make this crap up.
But then again, it’s Georgia.
