I think those guys are going to handle it just fine.INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA - DECEMBER 01: Head coach Pat Fitzgerald of the Northwestern Wildcats reacts. “I think Jamaree (Salyer) and Justin Shaffer, some of the guys who have been here for a while to really take up that leadership role. “We had a lot of guys play different spots so I think that’s going to help them out drastically this year. “We developed a lot of depth this year with COVID and everything going on,” Cleveland said. Because of their veteran presence, Cleveland thinks the offensive line will be more than ready to handle the rigors of the 2021 season. The former, like his head coach, praised Salyer and Shaffer. Replacing Ben Cleveland and center Trey Hill are the biggest hole on the offensive side of the ball. Georgia brings back just about every major contributor at the skill position spots on the 2021 offense. Instead, they’ll try to take the Georgia offense to the next level. Had they done so, they would’ve been working out alongside Ojulari and Rice. White, Cook, Salyer and Shaffer all had the possibility to turn pro following the 2020 season.

The Bulldogs almost replace Jermaine Johnson, who transferred to Florida State.ĭefensively, Monty Rice spoke his mind on junior linebacker Nakobe Dean. If Ojulari proves to be prophetic, that would be an absolute win for the Bulldogs as the soon-to-be NFL draft pick led the SEC in sacks a season ago. They let those boys loose it’s going to be a crazy fall in Athens.” “They’re going to let Nolan, Adam Anderson and don’t sleep on Beal too, they’re going to let those boys come off the edge. “There’s going to be a whole lot of sacks coming this fall for sure,” Ojulari said.
