He’s right. They play the same style as Georgia just with less talented players. They’ll have to outcoach them tremendously and catch several breaks to beat UGA as it stands right now.

The Georgia barking dog club (BDC) must be on the prowl.

He's not wrong. We've entered the Minor League era of CFB with no roster restrictions and players who can't be contractually obligated to anything.

A worst of both worlds if you would.

He can think that but can’t say it..especially after all the coachable issues they had Sat.

You can’t tell me there wasn’t a qb better than Leary that didn’t want to play for KY.

He ain't wrong. We lost two high 4 stars just this off-season because we were shite at getting NIL together.

One went to Auburn and the other transfered to Florida (before leaving school to take care of his mother who was diagnosed with cancer.)

The Auburn kid flat out said it was about getting money when he left, the kid that transferred to Florida I'm not so sure on why he left.

He is not right either. He gets paid 9 mil to have his team prepared and didnt. They were ranked, undefeated. They had a great offseason with the transfer portal and recruiting at a high level. This game wasnt on the fans. Now NIL is important to winning a championship, but you dont do it after no showing like that with half the season left and still ranked. This is offseason talk.

Leary was the top rated portal QB. He had great tape from two years ago. Last season he got injured early.

Leary has had occasional accuracy problems but our passing game has been a complete shite show this season. Receivers running half assed routes (rounding them off), not making reads in route and they can't beat press coverage to save their lives. Oh and we lead the country in drops. I'm pretty confident our WR coach is a recruiter only because the most polished receiver (skills wise) we have is the fricking transfer from Virginia Tech.

Unfortunately college football has changed for the worse. But I’d stop short of the “buying players”

I’ve seen billboards from
Zaxbys and a few others, Ladd McHonkey on I75-south.

That's one of the few things a coach can't do under NIL rules

"The board also clarified that school personnel (including coaches) can assist an NIL entity with fundraising through appearances or by providing autographed memorabilia but cannot donate cash directly to those entities."

shite makes zero sense. That’s why I’ve only watched two games this year and barely follow since NIL.

That’s great. Every fanbase wants to hear that the reason we got blown out is because our fans didnt do their part.

Give me a break.

Again, he’s not wrong.

He had to deal with Calipari publicly crying about not getting a new practice facility because Barnhart rightfully chose to update Nutter for football exclusively and to build track and field (that has produced multiple Olympians at this point) their own facility. He should’ve never had to defend himself or the program on that.

He constantly has to fight with basketball only fans who think he should be able to build a Georgia quality program with Minnesota NIL money. It’s quite frankly embarrassing that he even has to mention it. LouKat already pointed out that we directly lost big transfers due to NIL.

Is he full blameless in the loss? No. Was it poor timing to mention it now? Maybe. But fans could do better supporting the program’s NIL initiatives.

Either pay up or be left behind. That is why rich boosters are doing their part to get top HS recruits/portal players.

What kind of money does Auburn have


Y’all must be super poverty if Auburn is using money to steal away your recruits.
