WATCH: Where can Georgia's defense improve? Players open up
CHRIS SMITH
On Adam Anderson…
“Special teams is obviously a big emphasis for our team. We feel like if we can get ahead on special teams we can win a game. You know Adam is obviously a tremendous athlete. He can move fast, he is big and strong, he has all the qualities to be a great special teams player. The emphasis that Coach Smart and the rest of our coaches put on special teams has really helped us build and grow throughout the special teams process. Everyone on the team, not just Adam, me and including a lot of the older and younger guys, really recognized how important special teams is for us to be able to win.”
On good-on-good in practice…
“It definitely helps us out a lot. Going against the athletes that we have in our offense it makes the game a little bit easier when you are going against the athletes that we have. It definitely helps us out a lot. I love getting good-on-good periods, even our scout team knows that they give us good looks in and out every week, that is a really big help for us.”
ADAM ANDERSON
On who has impressed him on defense…
“Nolan Smith. My brother. Part of my wolfpack. Just seeing him come in every day with a hot motor. He’s young and has so much going for himself. Having that same person in your room. Knowing his why, knowing what he wants to do, and knowing that after school what he wants to do this. Knowing everything. Knowing he’s doing it for his mother as well. That just keeps you going. Keeps your drive alive.”
On being a five star…
“Honestly you can be a five star, four star, three star. Stars don’t mean anything when it comes to the field. Can you produce? Can you actually learn the plays? Can you learn from the meeting room and put it on the field? Jordan Davis was a three star. Look at him now. Strong as an ox. Fast. You can’t tell me that’s not five star credit. Stars don’t mean anything around here.”
