Georgia Bulldogs College Football Pregame Quote, 12/26/2023

We’re excited to get down here. We got a Monday practice in Christmas Day, and then we got a Tuesday practice this morning. We wanted to get down here so we could get used to the weather a little bit tomorrow. And hopefully avoid rain Thursday, says that we may have Thursday rain, but our guys have been great. We’ve had really good practices the last two days. Practices have been a lot better since we came back and got a lot of mid-years here and excited to see these guys go play.

About athletes opting out on FSU and the mindset of his athletes:

I mean, it’s not about them, it’s about us. And we don’t really know. It doesn’t matter to us, because we’re trying to play to our standard, we’re always trying to play our standard, we’ve had a lot more good on good practices, it’s probably been the best bowl practices in terms of not going against a scout team and going against each other. Because when you don’t know 100% what you’re going to see you’re better off going against really good people. So we’ve done a lot of ones on ones, two on twos and probably have gotten more three on threes than we ever have because we’ve got good depth with the 9, 10, 11, I don’t know how many fifth years that are there now. So we’ve been able to get a lot of depth.

What he is looking forward to most:

The kids getting away from our campus and getting the sunshine and getting out here to compete. Now I’m ready to play. I want to see these guys go play. A lot of guys have been working their butts off moving up and down the depth chart. We’re probably healthier than we’ve been for last four or five games of the year. And it’s great to see these guys go out and play. I mean, I’m really proud of the guys that are dying to go play, our guys want to play, they’re excited to go play so our guys are excited.
