Everything Kirby Smart said as Bulldogs wrap up spring practice with G-Day
âA lot of guys â I think, like, 40 or 35 or something new guys went on Dawg Walk that have never gone before. I was excited for them,â Smart said. âI thought our fan base was really good out there and had good energy, and that creates a little anxiety for our players, which is really good for young players."

We all know that G Day is just the last of the spring scrimmages, but with an audience. Over all I was pretty impressed. Just think what these players will be like after being on the summer and fall polishing wheel !! I Believe this 2026 chapter of the Dawgs are the real deal !! Go Dawgs !!
I can tell you this, I believe Reddell and Dowdell are real deals. Dowdell looks like the second coming of Todd Gurley! Reddell is fast and can catch. This is what is needed. Gunner is going to get in sync with his targets in June after weightlifting is over like Kirby said. It will honing down to the players that will actually be playing. The Dandridge kid looked pretty good at times also. Bowens looks like he really took offseason workouts seriously. The run game will be better, and successful play action will follow. The defense is going to be special again. I can't wait for the season!
I don't want to overreact but I am "concerned" about two things. The first is Nate Frazier. Hope it's nothing but it's concerning to me that he hurt his ankle back on Jan. 1 in the Sugar Bowl, and then more than three months later he hurts the same ankle on the first play of the scrimmage. I'm just hoping that ankle issues aren't going to become a recurring theme for him this season. And my second concern is what Kirby said about the wide receiver corps. Again, I might be reading too much into it, but his comments seem like he's basically saying, "these guys get a lot of hype, but they aren't really living up to it." And that's got me concerned. I know some guys apparently have looked OK this Spring, but Kirby seems to be saying "not really." I guess time will tell. Maybe they'll do better in Fall practice. Go Dawgs!
