Right. That's for recruits that are choosing between an SEC team and teams from other conferences. For UGA, UA, AU, UT, LSU, the Miss schools, that isn't all that common. We're recruiting against each other, mainly(FSU as well, and that's why I think this is the worst case scenario NCG matchup from UGA's perspective, but I'll cheer for the team we don't play every year)


again many recruits from all schools say they chose the SEC schools because they wanted to play in the SEC. does that pertain to all recruits, no. But dont kid yourself that some of these recruits are only being recruited by SEC teams. The OP is an obtuse fallacy.

It's not. I'm not an SEC fan. I didn't attend the U of SEC and I don't send money every year to the SEC. I want what's best for UGA, not the SEC.

So what good does it do to try to sell a recruit on playing in the SEC where they've won the last x national titles, when bama, uf, auburn, lsu can say "yeah, but WE'VE actually won them"?

I would say that 80-90% of the kids UGA recruits have a top group consisting of (in order of frequency) UGA, AU, UA, FSU, UF, Clemson, UT, USCe, OM, GT. we obviously recruit against other schools but relatively infrequently.

I don't want any of those schools to gain any advantage on us. Obviously most of those are SEC teams, so by extension, I will not cheer for the SEC mindlessly.
