Wait. You aren't supposed to back up your statements with facts. Just conjecture.

Yet he still develops his backups so when a starter goes down the backup is adequately prepared to play...and win championships.

I am surprised you can spell graduation because that doesn’t happen often at UGA!

There you go. I fixed it for you. As a middle school teacher, I am used to fixing middle school writing.

Your options are UGA, GCSU, Sa Southern, Georgia ST, and Augusta St. Pretty much the rest is 2 year stuff or specialized/post grad stuff.

Lol

Smokey is wrong again.
It must be a day ending in 'y'. Lol

I went to GCSU because of better scholarships than UGA

Lol

Are you sure it was the college that you attended in Milledgeville?

You forgot Mercer, KSU, Berry, West Georgia, Valdosta State, Oglethorpe, Reinhart, etc. There are plenty of non-specialized Universities in the state of Georgia. That is not counting the plethora of HBCUs that are some of the finest in America.

The reason that UGA is difficult to get into is because of the lottery-based scholarships that are available, thus sending more kids to college who would never have had the chance tens of years ago. That has driven up the requirements to get into state schools.

That is true for the other schools.

The lottery based scholarships have significantly increased the number of highly competitive and highly ranked high school graduates who stay in state for free tuition (i.e. UGA and GT) because the value is significantly better than out of state at Harvard, UNC, UVA, MIT, etc..

It isn't the kids who normally would not go to college that has made UGA so much more difficult to gain entrance.

Who cares? He’s an NFL player now. There’s plenty of those guys who don’t have a degree, either.

Auburn had 44% for this Fall. But also had more apply and accepted than Georgia. LINK

Among the more than 48,000 applications received for fall 2023, the applicant pool included students from every county of Alabama and every state within the United States.

The university’s 2023 early action decisions extend from October to January, with regular decisions being announced in March. The acceptance rate for Auburn’s early action periods was 44% for a total of 20,000 acceptances.


Georgia - Total Applicants: 15,340+ Accepted for Fall out of roughly 43,700+ total applicants. LINK

Once again. Georgia is recognized as a public Ivy. Check it out. Hard to get in and even harder to stay in. A top quality educational school. Bama is well known as a back up choice for kids who couldn’t get into UGA. So maybe it’s you who should think about deleting your tweet.


School administrators at Hoover High School still can’t figure out how George Pickens was able to get into any university…..Heard Bennett studied a lot in a bar, not studying to take the bar.

For some reason, I don't believe that. For other high schools, sure. But not that one.

I haven't seen 1 university ever hold the athletes to the same standard admissions requirements.
The bar is lower for football players. Period.

Was he even going to school? Remember texas is joining the conference and they are know to be NCAA rats. Things aren't gonna be how they used to be, they would rather hurt their conference brothers by narcing them out, so they can compete than improve their program. Make sure your covering your backside

That's why I said I don't believe they have no idea how he got accepted. I've seen the dance before.
