Day 1 ++
[Ed: This is good information but a little hard to read so I translated it below]
The boys are back in town!
First day of practice was fun, loud, and eye opening.
MW is in charge of offense and spends most of his time with the 4 QB's.
MS is running with Cink
The entire WR room looks NFL
DC is going to be a PROBLEM, dude is a freak.
JW and MM look like they are taking on the challenge to replace 2 NFL first rounders.
JC is faster and back from his lingering injury, will take a soph leap.
VO is a monster and might even be an upgrade.
All the freshman from TN and FL hang out together, hard telling which ones are the best, but legit all of them look like upperclassmen. Cink is going to have a nasty DB room for years to come.
Cheers
PS: XW might actually be the reason we have a new recruiting department, OC, and Director of recruiting operations. Sounds like the whole thing may have been MD fault, which got him transferred (wink). It really pissed off JG, who apparently let everyone in his wake know about it, and pissed off some of the wrong people within the football program and administration.

PS: Xavier Worthy might actually be the reason we have a new recruiting department, OC, and Director of recruiting operations. Sounds like the whole thing may have been Matt Dudek's fault, which got him transferred (wink). It really pissed off Josh Gattis, who apparently let everyone in his wake know about it, and pissed off some of the wrong people within the football program and administration.

Is this English?
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:25 AM ^
Why?? Is it really that hard to type out a few names? Appreciate you posting your insights, but come on. We shouldn't need a cipher to figure out who you are talking about.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:26 AM ^
While I can sort through this(slowly), the initial game was pretty unnecessary and hard to follow....But thanks for the breakdown.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:26 AM ^
I feel like I'm being punked. Why would you use two-letter abbreviations for names, coaching positions, AND US states? This is actually comical.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:28 AM ^
I'm going to need someone tell me who all these people are...
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:29 AM ^
GJ giving us news on the DL.
Thanks bro!
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:29 AM ^
The initial king is back.
All this sounds great, but how much better can they be in 2 months?
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:31 AM ^
Having to decipher every sentence is beyond tiresome and basically negates the value of your posts.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:31 AM ^
GoJ.... drop the cool initial shit....
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:34 AM ^
Interesting info. Always fun to decode. My best guess...
MW = Matt Weiss
MS = Mike Sainristil
DC = Darius Clemons?
JW = Julius Welschof
MM = Mike Morris
JC = Junior Colson
VO = Victor Oluwatimi
XW = Xavier Worthy
MD = Matt Dudek
JG = Josh Gattis
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:34 AM ^
VO - Victor Oluwatimi
XW - Xavier Worthy
MW - Matt Weiss
JG - Gattis
Assuming JW - Welschof, and MM Is Mike Morris
MS - Sainristil
JC - Junior Colson
DC - Clemons???
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:35 AM ^
MW - Matt Weiss
MS - Mike Sainristil
DC - ?
JW - Julius Welschof
MM - Mike Morris
JC - Junior Colson
VO - ?
XW - Xavier Worthy
MD - Matt Dudek
JG - Josh Gattis
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:35 AM ^
So JG didn't pork XW's mom and it was really MD's fault all along? Fuck that guy x2.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:36 AM ^
Matt Weiss
Mike Sainristil
Darrius Clemons
Julius Welschoff & Mike Morris
Junior Colson
Victor Oluwatimi
Xavier Worthy --> Matt Dudek --> Josh Gattis
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:38 AM ^
You guys need to relax. Love getting this info from GoJ!
- Matt Weiss is in charge of the offense
- Mike Sanristil has moved to the secondary
- Darrius Clemons already looks like a dude. WR is loaded.
- Mike Morris and Julius Welschof are taking on the challenge of replacing Hutch & Ojabo
- Junior Colson looks good after a nagging injury hindered him most of last year
- Victor O, transfer from UVA, looks like a beast and maybe an upgrade from Vastardis
- Xavier Worthy caused turnover with the whole recruiting department and Josh Gattis still pissed on how it went down
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:38 AM ^
@ Kilgore Trout
Yes.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:38 AM ^
There are approximately 110 players on a college football team in the off-season, not counting non-players who are referenced (of which I noted at least one quickly). There are approximately 10 coaches/assistant coaches on a college football team. There are approximately 10 positions in football. There are 50 US states.
You wrote a post referencing all ~180 of these distinct entities with 2 letter combos and extremely little contextual data, which can only imply that you're trolling. So you get my down vote.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:39 AM ^
Took a minute to figure out MD... that feels like years ago at this point.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:43 AM ^
All hail the Ghostman!
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:46 AM ^
In a readable form thanks to Kilgore Trout's abbreviations

February 22nd, 2022 at 9:47 AM ^
Appreciate the info! I just have to know why Clink is Cink and not SC?
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:47 AM ^
So did JW move from DT to DE? When did this happen?
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:48 AM ^
If the boys wanna fight you better let 'em.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:48 AM ^
I like Mike Sainristil, but if a coach told me, in my senior yr I should switch positions, after the yr he just had, I would transfer. He will not play a down as a DB.
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:55 AM ^
I got it fellas. His message should be read as follows:
BESURETODRINK
YOUROVALTINE
February 22nd, 2022 at 9:58 AM ^
When you refer to where people are from, I understand TN and FL.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:03 AM ^
@Stirred
a crummy commercial?
SONOFABITCH!
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:03 AM ^
Is RB done with PT for his ACL and back with the WRs?
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:10 AM ^
That’s all good and well, but I think most of us want to know about JJM and CM… what’s the scuttlebutt? Who’s getting most reps? What about BC and DE and AA?
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:11 AM ^
I really like what I’ve seen from Morris. Definitely think he’s set to be a starter or getting starter snaps (Jenkins as well).
Hopefully the same goes for Welschof, but it’s tough to see a guy with this much experience make a leap to go from what he was (pass rush DT) to a starter snap EDGE.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:14 AM ^
Harbaugh had Richard Sherman switch from WR to CB at Stanford maybe he knows Mikey Sainristils is told path to the league is on D.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:15 AM ^
Figuring out who the initials are referencing is almost as fun as playing Wordle.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:16 AM ^
ts:dr
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:18 AM ^
I thought this post could use a reminder of the initial list of early enrollees:
Darrius Clemons 6-3, 205 WR
Jayden Denegal 6-4, 215, QB
Mason Graham 6-4, 295, DL
Will Johnson 6-3, 190, CB
Connor Jones 6-7, 285, OL
Kody Jones 5-11, 175, S
Colston Loveland 6-5, 230, TE
Derrick Moore, 6-4, 250 DL
Tyler Morris 6-0, 175 WR
Olu Oluwatimi, 6-3, 310, OL*
Alex Orji 6-2, 226, QB
Myles Pollard 6-2, 185, CB
Keon Sabb 6-2, 200, S
Amorion Walker 6-4, 175, WR
So yes, DC must mean Clemons, though I wouldn't mind if it meant our new Defensive Coordinator.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:19 AM ^
I feel like i just read the "what we wanna hear" portion of the preseason previews. The Kool-Aid is gunna be spiked with vodka this year.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:22 AM ^
Even first names would be a least a little helpful good lord.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:22 AM ^
Glad to hear about the revamped recruiting - though sorry to hear that this problem contributed to losing Gattis.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:26 AM ^
It’s MD’s fault that JG got friendly with XW’s mom and that caused XW to transfer, MD to get canned, JG to leave to join MC’s staff, and MW and SM to be co-OC’s?
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:28 AM ^
Was I the only one that assumed Victor O was going to be an upgrade at center? Nothing against Vastardis. He was a very pleasant surprise. But VO was a Rimington Finalist last year. That is a different level.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:31 AM ^
The best part about this season, for me anyway, will be watching two stud QB's distribute the ball to the plethora (yes, plethora) of receiving talent. And it's not just the WRs. It's RBs and TEs too. Loaded.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:31 AM ^
This is great GoJ. Don't change the format, the initial shtick is almost better than the info!
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:33 AM ^
OMG! WTF!
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:35 AM ^
There was heavy doubt Sainristil was actually switching positions but it seems to be true. Mental note on whoever rumored that initially. Also an odd move. I know WR is logjammed but Sainristil was a great blocker and had made some awesome catches last year. I hate to miss out on that talent
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:35 AM ^
great info, thanks!
but i'm begging you to stop with the initials. it doesn't make this more insider-ey, it just makes it unreadable. i get enough pointless word puzzles by doing wordle, thank you very much.

Thanks for the insight! Keep it coming.
The QB situation is so intriguing to me. I would hate to be the guy making the ultimate decision.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:48 AM ^
JC = "Jesus Christ!", as many of us exclaimed when we saw a dozen or so sets of initials to decipher.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:53 AM ^
@FauxMo, there's no need to use that kind of language.
February 22nd, 2022 at 10:55 AM ^
So Gattis burned all his bridges because a guy no longer with the program dropped the ball with Worthy?? A year earlier ?? Bye Felicia
