Told Kirby when he was hired “to do whatever it takes to win it all. If that school 73 miles to the north east can win 2, you better find a way to win around here”.
Turn your head on crime.
Keep over recruiting positions after getting commitments (hence the 40-50 de-commitments since KS has been hired)
Force out players that don’t produce.
Provide all the NIL you need.
And the latest- finish dead last in all of football in GSR rate. DEAD LAST. See attached.

That’s a great graphic, thanks for sharing. Was the Pac-12 on that list?

They were wanting to do all that under Richt

Richt's last contract, that he refused to sign, wanted to give the AD more authority is discipline issues.

Let's stop being so phony. Like any of you really care whether GA football players graduate or not. Please...

I do....I am incredibly proud when I see Clemson make headlines for being the program with the most graduates
After all they are STUDENT athletes correct?

But that's being proud of Clemson and rightly so, not UGA.

Many ag ugay are not student athletes. They simply are athletes. Been that was for a long time, big the win trophies, and that’s all that matters to them. I once had a very good friend who was a “mega donor, so much so that he was awarded a varsity letter for his contributions to their program say, and I quote, “I dot care if they can read or write. I just care if they win.” Lots of them are of the same mindset.

I don't disagree with you. It's just that no one has been bringing up their graduation rates until they started winning NCs. I just think it is a bit disingenuous to be so concerned about what they are doing. Be proud of Clemson and what we are doing but let's not have this false narrative about us caring so much about their graduation rates because I don't believe most Clemson fans really care.
I don't know how they calculate the graduation rate but GA has a lot of players transfer out and leave early for the draft. Is that counted as someone that didn't graduate? If so, that would kind of skew the numbers.

I for one would like to see all these guys with free rides make the most of their opportunities. Lot of them won’t make the pros and for the few that do they do not last very long. That and mismanaged funds leaves a young man with few options. No one tells them about where and how a lot of kids end up. They see Allen, Burrow, Mahommes type players and think that’s how it is for everyone.

Nope. Embarrassing imo. Especially when you don’t even have to pay tuition.

It’s not his job to control whether or not his players graduate or commit crimes. And his roster management may be a bit ruthless, it clearly produces results. He’s successfully doing what he’s paid to do.

Most schools have clauses in their contracts that address following rules and adhering to graduation expectations. I wouldn’t be surprised if they have low expectations, though. It’s not a new thing there,

I would disagree and that may be true at some schools but not sure those numbers would fly at the majority of schools. There’s a reason Dabo repetitively speaks on his graduation numbers. He is proud of that aspect of his program.

As he should be. But thats not Georgias priority.

Georgia’s priority is to win, and they have been doing that very well these last few years. You might not like it, but it’s just a different mindset.

You just encapsulated the new world order of college football... Unfortunately, college football as we know it got sold out for the almighty dollar.
