breakout gator this year?

[GainesvillebornNraised]

i say rainey in the slot i think he could be just about percy good

he has the speed and cuts to make guys miss. dude is a beast in the open field

just hope he has good hands

Agree he and Brantley are going to make an awesome tandem.

i'd love to see the quartet we have (Demps, Rainey, Moody and Gillislee) kick some serious butt this season.

Rainey could have a breakout season, but add the speed of Demps and the power of Moody and we have some awesome strength at setback.

Another question that should be asked - who will fill the slot of Brandon James as kick/punt returner? My guess is Gillislee - what say the rest of you?

maybe or rainey or patton both are small and fast

or maybe robert clark who knows? debose could be a canidate too i guess

Are we forgetting about Andre Debose? He was so hyped last year before he had his surgery. He was supposed to be Percy's replacement. I'm hoping he can perform.

injury had him out a long time we gotta see if he's still got that same speed but i think he'll be great either way couldnt of slowed down too much

Now that Frankie Hammond's lost his scholly (see the post about Urban at the SEC Media Days for more on that), Debose can step right up. I was impressed with what he could do from what I had seen last year; if he can bounce back from his surgery Johnny Brantley has another weapon at wideout.

Speaking of WR's, I also expect Deonte Thompson to benefit from a strong passer in Johnny Brantley and kick his game up a few notches.

Brantley, Debose, and maybe Thompson depending if what Meyer leans towards Passing or Running.

Debose was supposed to play the RB/WR slot position that Percy played. But now it seems Rainey has locked that up, and our backfield is loaded. So it looks like more time at WR for him.

As long as it's not Chas Henry. Good punter = bad offense.

im going to say deonte thompson with jeff demps a close second. i think with rainey in the slot demps will get more carries and make some big plays. i think rainey will have a lot of chances to make big plays as well. rainey or debose could provide good return man options due to their elusiveness in the open field.
