UGA is a great place for recruiting. Their problem is that they keep getting raided, quite successfully, by out-of-state schools. Kirby's biggest job will be keeping his old boss at bay, really.


Eh... We hit Georgia hard during Saban's first couple/few years. But as we've had success, we've been more national than regional. We'll get a couple guys from ga, but we had a recent classes with players from more than a dozen states.

If anything Kirby needs to do what Saban did at LSU, and bring state pride to the next level. The problem is, Atlanta is huge, but transient. Many to players don't have ties to UGA like in places like Bama or Mississippi.

Out of 23 signees last year 19 were from the Southeast including 4 from Georgia.Your bread and butter is still in the south and for good reason.Easier to do in your own backyard amd its a more fertile territory.
