Lots of love from fans and alums for this hire on twitter

I'm actually surprised at how much love it and HY are getting. Fans, alums, former and current players, UGA fans and admin, everybody.

I'm not overwhelmed by the hire but I'll definitely get behind him and support him. I think he'll assemble a damn good staff and work his arse off to prove himself worthy.

I just keep reminding myself that the NFL makes hires for HCs like this all the time. They notice a guy who's a position coach that the players seem to rally around and knows how to coach and put them in HC spots all the time. They have to start somewhere I guess.

Who knows, this could be the perfect hire for what we need at the time. I assume he gave HY a pretty good idea of his plan and assistants he'd go after, and we'll probably spend a shite ton on assistants.

My grandma could tell you that winning in the SEC starts at the lines, and that's his specialty. Maybe it's a good thing we tried another direction from solely offensive or defensive guys.

Time will tell, but I'm gonna see what happens before shitting all over it.
