Dude was getting roasted by UGA fans last year for transferring and later missing out on another ring.
Was even shown where they had a running thread updating his stats after each game to make fun of him.

Following the conclusion of conf championships:

8th in the conf in rec yards
T-3rd in conf for rec TDs
1st in AVG YPC

Ended with more TDs and yards, and a higher AVG than any player on UGA's roster this season.

Plus he is still in the hunt for a ring?

Talk amongst yourselves.

I don't think UGA cares about losing Burton
The bigger loss was AD Mitchell to Texas
Burton didn't prevent UGA from getting a ring last year and he went into a loaded Bama offense and still didn't get a ring with a Heisman winning QB and transfer RB in Gibbs but still didn't get a ring

"Left At The Alter U" obsessing over a transfer? Color me shocked.

UGA had injuries to its 2 leading receivers all season

It was a WR committee


Congrats to Burton for barely outperforming a WR committee

We understand this transfer. It was for family. Burton is just a typical Gump

Burton is trash. He won't make it two years in to the NFL without him being locked up.

OP I think its worth noting that both of the players that hit the portal on UGA and came to Bammer played a key role in the SECCG win.

Burton had a TD

LB Trez Marshall had a key FB recovery and was the 3rd leading tackler for Bammer

Left LSU at the alter on signing day after getting a Tiger tattoo


He can rot In the Pits of obscurity for all we care.

Skip, your efforts to get a melt are fruitless

They just needed some proper coaching to become standouts

Marshall had his best game by far against UGA.

But Ive always thought that it to be ridiculous and extremely child-like to get butt hurt over a player leaving your school's team for another school, even if that school is a rival. It's the pettiest of the petty, and super cringey.

What? There wasn’t a single UGA fan mad at Trez. He played 4 years here and was huge in the CFP last year due to injuries.

And literally everyone outside of Bama fans thinks Burton is a clown

That transfer seemed to be predictive of the chaos this portal with no sit out penalty has created.

Portaling from the national championship team to the team the national champ beat for the championship was just bizarre.

Yep, much like Maurice Smith pre-transfer portal.

Actually Bammer has 2 WR's ranked higher in SEC receiving stats now.

#8 Burton
#16 Bond

He brings a edge to the WR corps and is a big motivator for the locker room and is a great athlete. If he is a clown I'll have a clown like that on my team all day.

No one has a problem with Trez. Good dude.
