You watch Oregon stack five 5-stars in one class and I just think back to the 1980s when Vince Dooley would find a raw kid from a south Georgia mill town, hand him a scholarship on a handshake, and turn him into an All-SEC lineman by his junior year. NIL turned recruiting into...

Three years and we still cannot get a straight answer on whether the SEC is gonna leave the NCAA or not. Kirby hinting at it on Finebaum and all I can think about is the 1992 season when we finally got the conference championship game and it meant something real. Now its all about TV markets and revenue sharing and nobody talks about the actual toughness it takes to win in this league. We got Tennessee State coming to Athens this fall and I guarantee you those boys will hit harder than half t...

You see these offenses now with the option looks they run and I just laugh. Real option football was watching the 1980 team run the wishbone where the fullback took the beating and the quarterback read the end man on the line of scrimmage every single snap. None of this read-option handoff to the boundary nonsense. Coach Dooley had those boys running triple option out of the I formation and you knew when we got to the fourth quarter the defense was gassed from chasing those fullbacks downhill...

Just saw that Matthew Stafford quote about playing in Australia and it got me thinking about something completely different. That man was a walk on at one point. No I mean he was a big recruit obviously but the idea of earning your spot, of proving yourself in the summer two a days when the heat was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Remember when we had walk ons who would stick around for four or five years just to get one snap on special teams? That was the soul of this program. I think about the 1980 team and how many of those boys were not five star darlings. They were kids from Valdosta and Thomasville and Moultrie who showed up unannounced with a duffel bag and a dream. Coach Dooley would watch them on the scout team and if you showed something, if you had that dog in you, he would find a way to get you on the field. That is how you build a program, not by swiping right on the transfer portal every time a starter graduates. Nowadays every kid with a decent high school highlight reel thinks he deserves a scholarship and a NIL deal before he even steps foot in the weight room. The walk on culture is dying and that breaks my heart more than anything else in this new era. We had kids who would run through a brick wall for a chance to wear the G on their helmet. They practiced against the starters every single day and made us better. David Pollack was a walk on. Ben Watson walked on. These are Georgia legends who started at the bottom and clawed their way up. Kirby Smart talks about the family atmosphere and I believe him, I really do. But the truth is you cannot have that same feeling when half the roster is one year rentals from the portal. The walk on was the glue that held the program together. He was the kid who would never transfer because this was his dream, not his business transaction. I miss those days more than I can put into words.

You can keep your fancy new Sanford Stadium expansions with the suites and the club level. I still remember sitting on those old wooden benches in the north end zone during the 1982 season, freezing my fingers off againt Georgia Tech, and the whole place shaking when we stopp...

Wait so Kirby Smart is on Finebaum hinting at the SEC leaving the NCAA if playoff eexpansion doesn't go our way and all I can think about is the old Peach Bowl days. Back in the 1980s when we played Tennessee in the Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl or the Peach Bowl against nobody teams, that was real football. You earned your bowl bid by winning 7 or 8 games, not by being the 12th best team in a 134 team field. Now we got this nonsense where everybody and their brother makes a bowl game and the playoff is just a math problem for the TV executives. The 1984 Florida team got a Sugar Bowl bid and they finished 9-1-1. That meant something. Now we got teams with 4 losses playing for championships and Kirby is threatening to take the whole SEC and go home. I miss when bowl games were rewards, not participation trophies.

You watch Kirby Smart sit there on Finebaum hinting at the SEC seceding from the NCAA and I just think back to the 1992 season when the conference first expanded with Arkansas and South Carolina. Everybody thought that was the end of the world back then and now look at us. We have got schools from California to Maryland in this league and they want to break off entirely. The old SEC was built on rivalries like ours with Auburn and Tennessee that meant something because we played every single ...

You watch programs like Colorado and Oklahoma State bring in 40 or 50 transfers and I just think back to the 1980 teams we built with homegrown boys from Valdosta and Thomasville. Coach Dooley would have laughed at this nonsense. Loyalty meant something back then. Now it is ju...

Just saw Josh Brooks talking about having over a thousand nieces and nephews and I appreciate the sentiment but that man is trying to keep a family together in an era where nobody wants to be part of a family anymore. Back in the 90s when Coach Goff was here we had players who would run through a wall for each other because they spent three or four years together building something. Now you got kids coming in for one spring, taking a bag, and bouncing to the next school when the depth chart doesnt go their way. Brooks is fighting a lsing battle trying to create loyalty in a system designed to tear it apart. The NIL money and the portal have turned our program into a hotel where guys check in and out every semester. You cannot build a family atmosphere when half the roster is new every August.

Kirby Smart on Finebaum talking about the SEC seceding from the NCAA if playoff expansion goes sideways and I cannot help but laugh. This is the same man who built a dynasty running a pro style offense with a nasty defense that smashes you in the mouth. Now we are sitting here in 2026 with the transfer portal turning every roster into a rental car and the conference schedule getting bloated to nine games and I just think about Coach Dooley in the 1980s. He had a handful of assistant coaches and a bunch of walk ons from south Georgia and we won SEC championships with discipline and toughness. Not with 43 portal transfers like Colorado or 50 like Oklahoma State. Not with NIL bidding wars for high school juniors. Kirby is absolutely right to push back on this nonsense. The SEC built its reputation on tradition and rivalries that meant something. The 1992 season when we finally got the conference championship game and beat Florida 28 to 21 in the first one. That mattered because those teams had been building for years. Now we are talking about seceding from the NCAA because the playoff format is going to water down what we built. I say let them do it. Take the SEC and the Big Ten and let everyone else figure out their own mess. But do not tell me that replacing our old rivalries with some computer generated schedule is progress. Coach Dooley would have walked out of that meeting room.

Kirby Smart hinting at the SEC seceding if these playoff expansion talks dont go our way and I am sitting here thinking about the 1992 sseason when the SEC Championship Game was born. We fought for years to get that game and now they want to water everything down so every conference gets a participation trophy in the playoff. Coach Dooley would have laughed at the idea of the SEC needing to threaten walking away but here we are. The conference built this sport from the ground up and now we have to listen to Greg Sankey negotiate with people who have never coached a down of football in their lives. You watch Josh Brooks talk about having a thousand nieces and nephews meaning every athlete in the program and that is the Georgia way. That is what we built under Coach Dooley and Coach Goff and Coach Donnan and now Kirby. Family atmosphere. Not whatever Colorado is doing with 43 transfers or Oklahoma State bringing in 50 new faces like they are running a hotel not a football program. Our strength has always been developing kids who want to be Bulldogs not mercenaries looking for the next NIL bag. The SEC seceding sounds drastic but you know what I remember? I remember when the SEC was eight teams and every single one of them hated each other with a passion. We played Auburn and Florida and Tennessee every year and that meant something. Now we have Texas and Oklahoma in the conference and people are talking about removing the SEC Championship Game entirely. If the SEC walks away and takes Georgia and Alabama and LSU and Texas with them then the rest of college football can figure out what they want to be without us. We were fine before the playoff existed and we will be fine after it crumbles.

You listen to Kirby Smart on Finebaum talking about these massive football budgets threatening Olympic sports and I just think back to the 1980 season when Coach Dooley ran this program on a fraction of what these sschools are spending now and we still went 12-0 and beat Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl. That 1980 team had walk-ons starting on the offensive line and we did not need 50 million dollars in NIL collectives to win a national championship. Now you got Oklahoma State bringing in 50 transfers like they are shopping at a grocery store and Colorado stacking 43 portal guys and Kirby is sitting there telling the truth that this spending spree is going to kill everything else the university offers. The NIL era has turned college football into a bidding war and I hate every second of it. Back in my day you committed to a school because of the tradition and the coaching staff and the chance to run between the hedges not because some collective offered you a better car deal. Jere Morehead is absolutely right about anarchy because that is exactly what we have right now. You cannot build a program when half your roster changes every December. Kirby knows it and the rest of these coaches know it too they just will not say it out loud because they are scared of getting left behind in the arms race.

You watch ESPN break down these 2026, 2027, and 2028 recruiting classes and all I can think about is how we used to find our best players. Coach Dooley would send a graduate aassistant to some small town like Thomson or Moultrie and he would watch a kid play both ways on a Friday night. Three games of film and a handshake with the high school coach was all the evaluation you needed. Now these kids are ranked before they even start high school. They commit to three different schools before signing day. I miss when Herschel showed up in 1980 and nobody outside of Johnson County had even heard of him. That was real recruiting. Not this circus we have now where a 15 year old with a Twitter account is a five star prospect.

You listen to Jere Morehead on Finebaum talking about anarchy in college football and I just think back to the 1980s when Coach Dooley ran this program with discipline and loyalty, not a bunch of lawyers and collective bargaining. Our president is exactly right, the NIL free-for-all and the portal turning rosters into revolving doors is going to kill what made this sport special. We built championships on developing three-star kids over four years, not buying a new team every spring like thes...

You watch all these teams running the RPO and the spread and I just think back to the old triple option we ran under Coach Dooley in the 80s. There was nothing prettier than watching our fullback take that dive, the quarterback reading the end, and pitching it to the tailback ...

You watch these schools bring in 43 transfers like Colorado or 50 like Oklahoma State and I just think back to the walk-ons we used to develop under Coach Dooley in the 80s. Guys who showed up unannuonced, paid their own way for a semester, and earned everything they got on special teams. That is how you build a program, not by renting a whole new roster every spring. The walk-on culture at Georgia used to be the backbone of this program. Kids from south Georgia towns nobody ever heard of who would run through a brick wall for a chance to wear the red and black. Now everybody wants a bag of money before they even step on campus. NIL killed that whole tradition. You cannot build loyalty when every kid is looking at the portal the second they are not starting.

You sit there and tell me Kirby is worried about football budgets hurting Olympic sports and I just think back to the 1980 season when Coach Dooley was raising money to keep the program afloat with bake sales and booster handshakes in the old Sanford Stadium end zone. Now we are talking about 20 million dollar caps and NIL slush funds while the baseball team is worried about losing its locker room. The game I grew up on is gone.

David Hale ranks our quarterback room middle of the SEC again and I just shake my head. You want to talk about QB play? I remember sitting in the old Gator Bowl on New Year's Day watching us grind out a 17-10 win over Michigan State in 1989, where the quarterback managed the game and the defense won it. Nobody cared about flashy passing numbers back then. You built a program on toughness, not some preseason ranking from a guy who probably never played a down. That 2021 Peach Bowl against Michigan when our line controlled the trenches and we ran it down their throats? That is Georgia football. You cannot quantify that in a tier list. Hale can put whoever he wants ahead of us on paper, but come November when we are grinding out wins in the SEC, those rankings mean nothing. We have won two national titles in the last four years and people still want to doubt the formula.

Wait so David Hale ranks our QB room and I scroll past all these SEC teams to find us and I just shake my head. You know what that ranking does not capture? It does not capture the fact that we used to play football where you built a program around a defense and a running game...

You see Oklahoma State bring in 50 transfers under their new coach and I just shake my head. That is not how you build a program. That is how you rent a roster for one season and hope it sticks togeter with bubble gum and duct tape. Reminds me of the early 90s when Coach Goff and then Coach Donnan were grinding on the recruiting trail for years before we finally broke through under Richt. You cannot teach culture to a kid who showed up for a paycheck three months ago. These 50-man portal classes are just musical chairs with shoulder pads. The loyalty is gone and the transfer portal killed the thing that made college football special. You used to watch a kid grow from a freshman who could not find the practice field to a senior captain who bled for the G. Now you just swipe right on a new quarterback every spring.
