I understand he is coaching somewhere now. Not sure of the level of teams
So is it just NIL money that keeping Georgia from getting the big time recruits?
Thanks Jeff. Good info. While I’m sick of the greed and selfishness revealed by NIL, I’m with Kirby’s approach while not being sure how it will ultimately play out. Like Kirby, I want the guys who want to be a Dawg. Also want guys who understand there’s more to life than money. Kids who are willing to work harder and are loyal to their school can make us all proud. They are also more likely to be good productive citizens when their playing days are over. This is about more than football. It’s about life.
what’s your feelings on the greed of the coaches who keep getting bigger raises?
Mitchell bolted for different reasons. Absolutely wanted to stay a Dawg. Life dictated otherwise in this situation.
If you go after a lot of these five stars who are shopping for the highest dollar and not really wanting to be there, you’re risking losing them to the portal. Somebody else contacts their agent and steals them or they get disgruntled. If you have three and four stars who really want to be at Georgia, understand what it takes and are willing to put in the work, in three or four years you have a solid roster. Didn’t Indiana do well with older, more mature players without a lot of stars by their names?
Silly Season (AKA the college recruitment of high school athletes). Look at this board and these comments from all of these great Dawg fans. This troubles my soul. NIL has turned college football into an unknown and troubling endeavour. You wouldn't think that paying 17 and 18 year olds millions of dollars would cause any issues, Right?
