LOL at anybody that thinks the fan collectives are buying the players. It’s the wealthy boosters that are buying the players and UGA is among the vast majority that can’t match the money that s few programs have.

Eta that yes, I know that UGA has been one of the best recruiting teams in the nation, but it’s because Kirby Smart is a great recruiter. If he decides to go NFL or retire it will be a different story. There are a lot of wealthy businessmen in Georgia but most have no ties to UGA. Kirby Smart is among the vast majority of coaches that want and expect changes in NIL It will come eventually in some form or other.

Way to show how ignorant you are about UGA, pal. Georgia has a LOT of very wealthy boosters as well as thousands and thousands of small donors and boosters. You can’t attend a football game in Athens without seeing folks being honored on the field for their astronomical contributions.
The state is also full of businesses who support UGA and will show that support by participating in NIL. Georgia is a wealthy school with the majority of their students coming from the private schools of north Atlanta. There is definitely no lack of money or future revenue at UGA. And now that there are basically no rules, get ready, the money for NIL will increase dramatically. Gonna donate some myself.
Keep telling yourself your little fantasy if it makes you feel better. But you should know that Georgia spends more money than any other program on recruiting, makes huge profits every year and doesn’t accumulate long term debt. And the wealthy donors are plentiful and generous.
You sound more jealous than informed about UGA and coming from a fan of Alabama that’s understandable. Bama is a dirt poor state where most of its inhabitants are hard pressed to buy a six pack much less donate money to Bama.
