Georgia, we have a problem. It has nothing to do with the play on the field. Kirby Smart has that part figured out. Two SEC Championships. Routinely among the elite of high school recruiting rankings. Three national championship appearances. Back-to-back National Championships. Multiple high-end NFL Draft Picks. Smart has demonstrated that he has domain when his teams steps onto most football fields. 2024 should be no different. They have plenty of talent and are the media favorites to win another SEC and national championship. Yet, we are not here to talk about that today. No, we must again highlight what happens with the Georgia football players once they leave Sanford Stadium and Butts-Mehre Heritage Hall. It’s turned into another bad Netflix documentary: Dawg Kings.
