Peyton Manning Shares Kirby Smart Recruitment Story

On Wednesday, Peyton Manning shared a hilarious story about Georgia head coach Kirby Smart from back during their college recruitment days. Manning was on a recruiting trip with Smart when they went visited Florida down in Gainesville. Smart wasn't offered a scholarship and he was very ticked about it....
quote:
“I remember he was so angry after his meeting,” Manning said, via On3. “I guess it was with (Steve) Spurrier because they didn’t offer him. They wanted him to walk-on. He was so mad. He and I went and drank a lot of beer.”
(The Spun)

I had no idea they were the same age. I thought Smart was a good bit older.
