They'll have to have decommitments eventually.
Kirby learned from Saban about "processing" players. If any do decommit or transfer it will be because Kirby found someone better he wanted and knows he will get. The ACC defensive player of the year a couple years ago was an FSU db who transferred from Georgia because he couldn't get playing time in Georgia's defense.

There's not such thing as a "commitment" anymore until you see them on the field during the games. Even if they're on campus, don't count your players until you see them in uniform.

That extra wide stripe on the pants looks really dumb. Not that it matters since UGA never wears red pants these days.
Agree, looks like a high school uniform. I think they wore red pants for an away game a few years ago.

I have to give Georgia credit, they don't get into any silly fashion show foolishness about what uniform combo they are going to wear.

Yeah it was the 2020 game against Arkansas to mark the 40th anniversary of Herschel Walker running over Bill Bates in Knoxville.

Georgia does pull out a black jersey from time to time.

I think they have done the black jerseys maybe three times. I know one was when Bama destroyed them in Athens and one was in a bowl game.

Top programs don't usually mess around with their uniforms. Their brands are well known and they want to keep them that way.

Correct, they wore black jerseys against Auburn and Hawaii in 2007, Alabama in 2008, and black helmets/pants against Florida in 2009. Then they did the all red with alternate red helmets against Boise State in 2011.

After that, I don't think they wore alternate uniforms until Kirby took the job, and they pulled the black jerseys out for a game in 2016. They wore black again against Cincinnati in the Peach Bowl.

It's not true that top programs don't "mess around" with uniforms. Oregon is definitely a top program and wears a different uniform every week. That's their brand. Ohio State wears alternate uniforms. So does Oklahoma. Michigan wears different combinations based on their school colors. Florida State wears different combinations, as does Washington and Notre Dame.

Expect a 4-star safety to flip to Texas. His mom lives in Florida and Dad in Texas, so that is the battle. It is at least 50-50 that he flips. We already flipped the Louisiana cb

This would be noteworthy if we were the benefactor of their de-commits. WE better pray we don't suffer the same fate.
these next two games are absolutely critical to win and to hang on the Verbals' until the sign the line.

Question is, are we even involved?

Remember when many wanted Napier at SC? If can't win at Florida, how would he have done here?
