Georgia football podcast: What we need to learn about UGA before G-Day

Beginning of the show: Georgia produced a historic defense along the way to winning the 2021 national championship, but many of the key contributors from that unit are moving on to the NFL. I’ll discuss on today’s show how UGA can use spring practice as a proving ground for new names to emerge for this season’s defense, and how one aspect of Coach Kirby Smart’s management of the program could help aid that process.

15-minute mark: I discuss the role that “consistency” played in one of the Bulldogs key recruiting battles during the 2022 class, and how that also looms as a factor for a top 2023 prospect as well.

20-minute mark: Former UGA wide receiver Terrence Edwards joins the show.

40-minute mark: I take a look at other headlines including a nice gesture from the Los Angeles Rams to pay tribute to some of the former UGA players on their roster ahead of Sunday’s Super Bowl.

45-minute mark: I share a fun exchange between two top 2023 wide receiver recruits.

End of show: I award a Golden Shoe winner and share the Gator Hater Updater and the Gator Hater Countdown.

After the show: I take questions and comments as part of the Podcast Cool Down
