Georgia football podcast: Former UGA great DJ Shockley has advice for Justin Fields
Beginning of the show: Former 5-star quarterback Justin Fields was promised a fair competition at Georgia by Kirby Smart according to a recent ESPN article that quotes Fields’ father, Pablo Fields. Given Smart’s history of speaking about the value of competition, this isn’t surprising. However, what happens if Fields doesn’t win that competition against incumbent starter Jake Fromm — who’s drawing rave reviews thus far in his second season? A former UGA great who had a similar experience, DJ Shockley shares his advice for Fields on that topic on today’s show.
