Dawgs: Why didn't Kirby go after D'Eriq King?

Seriously. I think King is a hell of a QB who is an elite all around athlete.

1) He wasn't in the portal.
2) No guarantee that he's interested. I think you can probably assume they at least kicked the tires over the past few months.

Not in the portal but I'm ok with Newman. There's talk that we're getting another OC to fix our offense so I'm not upset. King will be good wherever he goes.

Sure King wasn't in the portal but we're talking about Kirby. You don't think Kirby had intel that King would be entering the portal or could've gotten such intel? It has been speculated for months now that King would transfer.

Because its a recruiting violation to recruit players who aren't in the portal. Next question.

My guess is that King had made it clear where he would end up, and it is not UGA.

King makes no sense in UGA's offense. Kind of like Fields didn't either.
King is a midget spread option shotgun QB.
Fields is more versatile but way way more comfortable in a shotgun based offense.

The Dawgs keep saying their offense will be changed so I'm taking their word for it. That midget spread QB isn't a knock anymore.

Fromm took the vast majority of his snaps in the shotgun. I also imagine Kirby is open to making some changes.

Why are you worried about this is my question?

Because I want to know. Why are the Dawgs so irritable? Those recruiting championships not satiating you?

We run a shotgun based offense, so what the heck are you Saying?

I'm asking because Kirby is a great recruiter but his offense needs revamping. So, I thought he'd look at getting the best transfer QB and that's King.

Newman was the best transfer available to enroll at uga, and Kirby got him. Also got the best tight end transfer available

Because we didn’t want a QB with a ghetto name.

You don't give a frick about a name if he can deliver a national championship. Miss me with the bullshite.

I rather have the offense revamped than getting another grad transfer QB.

If the new qb can hit open passes, and run for positive yardage, then no one would be whining about our offense.
