    With totally pay to play now, KS is doing his best with the budget he has been given. With the days of picking the best coach and development behind us I agree with the author our days may be numbered. My feeling is this will get old for KS very soon and no telling when or where he will go. Saban got out at the right time. The one time greatest game in sports has been ransacked by NIL and the portal and impossible challenge of managing player movement. The thrill of being a college football coach is long gone unless you possess the biggest piggy bank.

    Interesting comments. Two contradictory points of view.

    1. NIL, etc. is ruining or has already ruined college football. Kirby's been prevented from doing what he used to do. He can't stack layers of talent, meaning 4 and 5 star talent, and develop the layers/players over their three or four years at Georgia.
    2. Kirby will adapt to what comes his way. He's already adapted perhaps better than any other coach, or most coaches. Certainly it's not what he'd prefer. It is what it is, and it might work out well for Georgia.

    Man oh man, I can see both points of view, but, like everyone else (with the possible exception of Kirby Smart) I don't have a crystal ball. I'm really afraid college football might be ruined, but I hope not.

    As I see it, the old system was flawed, but the fix as it currently exists has kinda thrown the baby out with the bath water.

    It's hard for me to think this, or say this, but the time may come when you and I don't care about college football anymore. If "they" completely ruin it, and fans lose interest, what happens next?

    Go, Dawgs!

    Like many other Georgia Bulldogs fans, I was introduced to UGA fandom by my father. And succeeding generations of our family have continued that tradition! Click below to read a special Father's Day edition of the Junkyard Blawg.
