Best of Luck to you.
probably for the best, it’s time to move on and focus on the next two games.
God bless.
Transparency...This was needed after almost two years of this grown man in Athens dealing with off field issue's.
Kirby, his staff and the University went beyond their grace to help this man overcome his issues. Best wishes on this man's path to wherever life leads him.
Now...Kirby can recruit another scholarship man that is willing to work in school and on the plating field to the betterment of UGA and most importantly...himself
So, I guess Georgia had enough of the personal issues with Gilbert. Seriously, he probably should forget football at this point, going to another team can't do anything but present more issues for the kid. At Georgia, he was closer to his family than anywhere else. If that didn't help, who knows what the answer is. Maybe he tries Georgia Tech? At least then, he would still be close to home. Kirby and team seemed to do everything they could to make things right for him, so sad. Great talent, that couldn't shake whatever demons are after him. I pray for him that he will find peace.
Oh, c'mon down votes! It's a little funny.
Go ahead and vote me down but I’m not going to sugarcoat this. I’m glad this soap opera is over. Go Dawgs!
Later. Gator?
Georgia did everything possible and it wasn't enough, Dogs should move on from AG, period, the end.
I wish things had worked out for Arik and UGA, but alas it didn’t. So I wish him well with his life. And I sincerely salute Kirby and UGA for doing all they could to help him. And I salute the patience with him of Many Dawgs fans. Though this might appear on the surface to be a total bust for UGA it’s not. Be assured recruits and their families were/are very aware of the lengths that Kirby and UGA went to trying to help Arik, and it gives those recruits and their families confidence that Kirby and UGA go 110% in looking out after their players. I’m not gonna bash on Arik as I don’t know why things didn’t work out. He’s leaving and UGA will move on forward. I hope for his sake that his life can come together and he to can move forward.
Evidently "fans". Bashing on a kid for wanting to move on. At least he's not out there like mays and his family saying there was a "toxic culture". Yes we all wanted him to play, but calling him out and bashing him for leaving, that's sad. Like said below, maybe football just isn't his thing anymore. And by help, I didn't mean he wasn't getting it, but I mean get it where he is going. Down vote, idc. Just shows the shallowness of people.
My only regret for Arik is that he didn’t find the answers he was looking for in the Classic City. My only regret for us fans is that he never really got to share his talents with us!!
Wish him the best, but would be lying if I didn’t say, “dammit I wish it’d worked out.”
Peace out my man, I really enjoyed all the time watching you against Vanderbilt, during that one play! Maybe you will double your snaps at the next school
