Never thought I’d see the day when UGA fans started making the “Kirby doesn’t care about stars” excuse.

Their entire program has been built on buying as many 5 star players as possible every year.

Chick-fil-A can only get them so far

Bama and Clemson are the real losers in the NIL battle. They don't have the media markets or billionaire boosters to keep up. It was inevitable that they would fail once capitalism took over and the Good Ole Boys club couldn't illegally corner the market.

I would have thought Georgia with Atlanta and a decent number of ultra-wealthy "friends of the program" could have held par. But they haven't adapted, and in this era it's adapt or die.

UGA definitely has the alumni base, but they are millionaires, not billionaires. Georgia Tech has the wealthier alumni base but they are more like an Ivy in their lack of interest for sports.

My daughter just finished up her freshman year at UGA and works in the athletic department. Can’t wait to hear the excuses that those inside UGA athletics are giving lol

These Georgia fans out here claiming they didn't buy players and Kirby is this great player developer that turns 3* into 5*....

These idiots really don't remember all those 5* players they used to get every cycle?

Cal and Stanford has the same issue as Georgia Tech.

Oh I have already told her about that. She has her own car and I told her she isn’t to ride with anyone because of Georgia’s reputation of driving reckless

Yep and the same attitude towards sports. I explained NIL about 4 years ago to a group of wealthy Tech boosters, all of whom played football at Tech for Bobby Dodd (it was an elderly group), and all of whom donate money to Tech athletics. My point to them was rather than just donate blindly, work with the athletic department and coaches to target specific players.

The reply I received was “they should want to come to Tech without needing to be paid”. At that point I stopped wasting my time and breath. I also realized Tech sports were forever relegated to mediocrity.

Why was this easily predicted in your opinion?
