Georgia football's high-priced recruiting part of 'return on investment'
Georgia football spends freely on recruiting, as this deep dive piece by AJC.com illustrates, charting Kirby Smart and his staff's heavy travel schedule last December

Obviously not getting any frequent flyer miles. Some of those fares are outrageous. 20 grand Phoenix to Kansas City!! LOL!!
It’s good to have you back Chip! Really miss reading your articles, by far my favorite Bulldawg writer with the best articles. If only we could get you back on the podcast every once in a while!
Good one, Chip! UGA needs its own plane again...less expensive than the nearly half million dollars (annually?) chartering. I am all for UGA seeing this expenditure in the right light...investment!! Absolutely. You cannot be an elite football college and skimp in any area!!! Not today! Good to see your name up there again, Chip. GO DAWGS!!!
Welcome back Chip. I can only imagine where the program would be had they spent that amount of money when Mark Richt was there. He only had 2 top 5 recruiting classes during his time @uga but he still beat Nick Saban twice and won 2 sec titles but when Nick Saban and Urban Meyer started winning those recruiting battles, Mark Richt couldn't keep up with them.
This begs the obvious question: Why don't we have a small fleet of private jets as well as one helicopter that can also be rented-out by Alumni when not in use. Planes are expensive to maintain but they also appreciate! I say invest and see the long-term costs go down while the short-term benefits occur immediately!
"Come on guys...It's all ball-bearings these days."
"Get to the Choppa!"
Lastly, COVID quarantine is a bunch a malarkey. Statistically, 99.6% of Americans do not have the bug. The government needs to let us make our own decisions and take our own risks. Get out of the way. I'm just tired of all of this, I had to say it.
