Ah, ASU. Better known for some basketball and some golf.
From Georgia but got drafted into the Military so ended up going to Memphis State (Now just Memphis) after my time in the Military. Just did not have the opportunity at the time to move back and attend UGA....but my Son and Daughter in Law did....I will always bleed Red and Black
I grew up a Dawg. All my neighbors were Dawgs. Their kids were Dawgs. When I was eight a freshman named Herschel was the only thing I talked about. Kevin Butler was my hero. By the time I was in high school I couldn't wait to be the kicker for the Dawgs. Alas, they had some guy named John Kasay and a guy coming in behind him named Todd Peterson (if I'm honest, I have to admit that they were probably better than me... well, maybe Kasay).
I played soccer at a small college and transferred to Auburn's architecture school (I sure as heck wasn't going to Tech). I proudly rooted for Zeier and Hearst and Hastings.
I married a fourth generation Georgia Bulldog and raised my two girls to be daughters of the red and black. I've donated to the Hartman fund and my license plate says "SIC M"
But I don't have a degree from Georgia. Maybe when my youngest gets though school I'll go there to get a doctorate... at age 65.
And some horrendous name changes
I didn't go to UGA but I was never given a choice as to which team I supported. Both parents went to UGA and my old man played baseball and walked on for football as well. Pretty sure he would disown me if I became a fan of some other school. Heck, my mom got her doctorate from Bama and he still gives grief for it. I got into UGA but I wanted to play baseball in college and wasn't good enough to get a scholarship at that level so I went to an awesome school just down 441, but I'll be a DGD for as long as the good lord lets me.
LOL! Aziz had them fired up for awhile, that's for sure.
Hutch, where did you play your college ball?
Georgia College and State University in Milledgeville
They finally got it right. Augusta University, go jags. Haha
I was a Redcoat in the '70s.
I pull against Auburn and Florida every time they play. I hate those lowlife bottom feeders.
I pull for every other team on our schedule until they play us, including Georgia Tech.
When we beat those teams, the better their record the more it benefits us.
I was at West Georgia and watched most of their baseball games. What years did you play? I'm wondering if I might have seen you play.
@BiffLowman , If attending the school was a requirement for being a fan, Alabama and UT wouldn't be able to fill their stadiums on gameday. One of my best friends grew up in N. Georgia, went to GA Southern, and is the biggest UT fan I've ever met. Just try telling him he's not a true fan... He's a big guy, and you'll regret it. It's about having that "fight" in you for the sake of your team.
The fact that you made the effort to post on a UGA forum because you felt passionately enough about this, proves you're a fan. You have that fight in you.
Hate to admit it, but gotta pull for the Irish today.
04-05 but I don't think I ever pitched against the them.
I agree. It only helps us.
