“We’ve got to find a way, in this program, to not let that creep in and to have that same hunger you have as a young player, because we’ve had it happen to a number of guys that were really hungry, and they become full. You can’t become full when go play the teams that we play against.”
Rat poison?

He’s spoken before about the Atlanta area kids getting so much coverage as recruits and that being a negative for their development as football players. There’s probably something to that.

The fans are the same way...a disease.

Kirby needs to speak with Dabo about getting his own ROY bus to help keep his players motivated to excel.

Pretty sure thats everywhere except Clemson baw.
Little ol Clemson doesnt get press clippings.
Side note: Whats the over/under on kids today who even know what "press clippings" are? They probably think its some kind of pass coverage penalty.

Kirby is completely right here. But hardly exclusive to Georgia.

Yeah, but Florida fans are all shining examples of class and humility.

He is absolutely correct and I’m happy he feels that way. Good sign for the future of Georgia football and an indication CKS understands there is still a lot of work to be done to get Georgia football to the top.
I am a huge fan of Coach Richt, but he seemed to settle after his first 4-5 years. Doesn’t look like CKS is ready to do that.

Well, it's a university, not a college. So, there's that.

Recruits becoming pseudo celebrities before they ever suit up for a college program isn't healthy.

It's called Kriby's offensive scheme.

So the question becomes, which players is he referring to here?
