I’m just going to leave this here

quote:

“Negative recruiting, to me, never works on the kind of kids that you want in your program,” Smart said. “Because if they are listening to that and they buy into that, they are probably a little gullible. Where I would much rather be very honest and open because you attract better quality people who respect the fact that you respect the other people in your league.”

“I’m gonna be open and very honest with you. I want to pay you a boat load of money to come play for Georgia.” - Kirby Smith probably

Yeah, that’s all he has, and a buttload of cash. If it wasn’t for negative recruiting, Kirby would just be a bad coach...

Orgeron could counter with, I can get you a boatload of cash on draft day as well as a ring.
Smart has been there a year longer than Orgeron, loaded the roster with 4-5 five stars.
Whats to brag about if you are a Dawg.

They hired Kirby to go all in on recruiting and winning championships. I know we trash him as opposing fans for not winning a title, but they are recruiting at a necessary level to win it all. Hopefully for us, he keeps thinking he can win with an outdated offense.

As well as right now.

I think UGA is fricking paying a shite ton.

But as an LSU fan can we not act like we are the only school in the south NOT doing it? Come the frick on.

Kirby is an overrated coach In my opinion. He has made multiple decisions in big games that have cost him a chance to win that championship. He is a great recruiter but I don’t trust him to win me a big game at all.

I agree that his game day coaching leaves much to be desired, particularly in big games. He has a ton of pressure on him from a national stand point to win a title because you can only bring in top classes for so long without winning one. Sooner or later, you lose credibility with what you're selling kids if you can't deliver on the field.

Kirby wins the “Lying a-hole of the Year” award with this little gem.

He took a cell phone pic of Bama’s recruiting board before he left for the uga job then shared that pic with recruits to convince them that Bama didn’t think as highly of them as uga did.
