What would that be worth?

That’s the question former outfielder Dylan Goldstein, or specifically, his attorneys, are asking. He joins Diego Pavia, among others, seeking to extend eligibility on the grounds that a JUCO year shouldn’t count.

Per the SI article, Goldstein is hoping to be eligible and available this weekend.

Goldstein started his career at Chipola College before then transferring to Florida Atlantic after one season. He would then later on transfer to Georgia ahead of the 2024 college baseball season. Goldstein is now looking to earn another season of eligibility with the Bulldogs due to him playing JUCO baseball during his freshman year in college.

There are going to be a lot of PhD scholar athletes out there some day. And to think, Stetson Bennett went to college seven years, never earned a degree, he could’ve been given the chance to keep on taking courses and winning Nattys through 2023.

In case you were wondering when the decision will be made:

Bold strategy, Dylan. Let’s see how it plays out for him.

One Bill was trying to warn us 40 years ago and now another Bill rues the results.

Of course, many argue that Mr. Burr is misguided and identify the real problem as being the overbearing cradle to grave social welfare hammock.  Its just too damn easy to be poor in America so its no wonder that so many choose the lifestyle. 

Discuss.

Saw this and thought it would be a good topic for the Roundtable today. While I was hoping for something non-football related, working the site maintenance and trying to be creative at the same time is a life.

News flash: the top 4 all involve SEC teams.

What say you?

Morning, all. Just giving everyone an update as we navigate back to normal. We’ve tried resetting site plugins and that didn’t seem to have any change in functionality, and we now have a fellow Refugee reach out to help root around the nether regions of the blog to detect gremlins. We’ve likewise experimented with some options to the mother site using the mirror site, which seems to be a possible next step in solutions.

Thanks again for hanging in there. We’re working on it. In the interim, here’s a Georgia pitcher hitting 100 mph on the mound this past weekend:

Go Dawgs!

Evening, everyone. We are running towards the end of our site license with WordPress, so we’re going to start toying with some fixes.

The first attempt will be to route people to the “mirror site” using the current Refugees URL. The goal would be for users to go to the regular URL address but it opens in the mirror site, where most of you tell me that commenting and liking functions work properly. This is the next of our attempts before we go nuclear and just decide to go with a different service/provider.

Our goal is to allow ease in commentary and have the old GTP aesthetic, wherever we should land. Otis and myself aren’t IT guys and none of us got in to this with the idea we would be getting this deep into WordPress, so trust when I say your frustration is ours.

I say all this to say, hang in there with us. If something goes ass up, most of you are subscribers and we can still update you in progress via email, just in case.

Fingers crossed. See you all on the other side.

Honestly, after showing out at the Senior Bowl, this is kind of surprising. (Note…posts duplicated at the mirror site to keep open the discourse until we land on a fix)

Todays discussion point…which Dawg comes to mind as someone you expected to do well in the pros, but didn’t…or didn’t even get a chance?

You can’t have Valentine’s Day without red and white.

Since I recall from a previous post that many of our Refugees universally see today as the most pointless of holidays, enjoy this Valentines Day snark:

Thank you, saturdayinathensga!

For our loyal followers that mentioned they are continuing to have issues commenting here, I’m going to copy and paste the posts from here on the mirror site if you’re missing your commentary and banter with fellow Refugees.

Second…one of our commenters mentioned a while back that they work on fixing gremlins as a vocation and might be able to help. If that’s you, please let me know…you can message me or just comment here and we’ll connect to continue to seek fixes.

Thanks again for your continued patience, JP.

I’ll let #47 kick us off on this one.

Here’s the challenge for today:

Obviously, the focus here will be on Georgia.

BUT, your answer cannot be focused on a coach; rather, what would be the one area you’d like to see Georgia improve upon the most in 2025 that you feel is most crucial to getting us back on track?

I’ll throw my .02 out here: I’d like to see the defensive front seven create more havoc up front to stabilize the secondary a little more…and hopefully result in more positive numbers in the turnover margin category.

Let’s hear it Refugees…

If you’ve got twenty minutes, this podcast with Scott Cochran is worth a listen. Talk about things you never knew were happening behind the scenes.
