At long last, Paul Johnson has begun the always interesting process of deciding which of his upcoming freshmen will play during their first season of football and which will take redshirts and continue developing from the sideline. According to the AJC's Ken Sugiura, Johnson has already indicated that five freshmen -- Parker Braun, Kenny Cooper, Jahaziel Lee, Jalen Camp, and Dedrick Mills -- will all play this season, barring injuries or other unforeseen barriers. That's good news overall, if for no other reason than it seems to indicate that Johnson is a bit more comfortable with the established personnel this season than he was last season when he played an era-record ten freshmen.
