When you find the answer tell Mullen. He's surely wondering that as well.

I love how Auburn fans now think they have some sort of moral high ground that correlates with them losing consistently to Kirby.

They don't utilize the talent. You fall off draft boards, etc.

It makes zero sense to go to UGA if you're a blue-chip player when Kirby doesn't know how to use your talents.

Stop being delusional

UGA has a great track record at getting guys to the NFL at all positions, AND after they get to the NFL a very large percentage of their players earn a 2nd Contract

When it comes to players getting a 2nd NFL Contract UGA is right up there with Bama, Clemson, LSU, Ohio State, Miami or any other College

Brenton Cox was the main one that was about, but evans just sent him over the edge with this epiphany.

Kirby is great at developing players, so this is pure nonsense from a nonsensical gator.

It's a mystery why Georgia with all the recruiting success over all these years can't bag a natty.

I respect this program,I just don't understand why they can't close the deal.

Is it a toughness difference between west and east?

I don't get it.

Not at all. Curses are real. Whenever we need a ref call, or a bounce, or a play, be it in our own game or a game with other teams in other conferences, we dont get it.

How else can you explain so many other teams getting the breaks but UGA FB never getting the breaks? Sports curses are real. Thankfully they usually end at some point.

Jealousy seems to be more contagious than the corona virus in HogTown. Why would anyone want to go to UGA? It’s UGA! Best college town in the country, a beautiful campus, incredible facilities, gorgeous women, a football team that lands the BEST players, and a quality education. I’ve been to a Hogtown and I’ve seen your campus, facilities, and town. Athens is in another stratosphere! My question is why would anyone want to go to Hogtown? Apparently not many. Even I thought the Gators could beat out GT for a player but I was wrong. Guess he preferred the N Avenue Trade School to actually playing in a pathetic place like Hogtown.

How else?

Maybe making the right hires and knowing when to fire people?

Georgia fans love them some: "No one could do what Kirby is doing here", but really, any coach with some experience could have won with the roster he inherited.

You guys will deny it, of course, because that's just what Georgia fans do. Oregeron is a shining example of a coach who is like Kirby in every single way but actually understands (at a faster level) how to adapt to his situation.

Kirby had a talent advantage to Orgeron and lost by four touchdowns. There ain't no curse, just a hire that was going to take a lot longer to pan out than if Georgia had hired someone with experience.

And yet your uber Ethical, uber Moral, high standards Athl Program had no problem transferring in former UGA Players that were booted out of UGA for violating those non existent principles and values

In all honesty the NCAA should set up a field office in Auburn, it'd be worth it due to the money saved on Travel Expenses
