The Process abides.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t remember the last time a Georgia offensive lineman who started a game one season elected to transfer the following spring.

Depth and Pittman, baby.  Best of luck to Pat Allen, too.

    Serendipity follows the process wherever it leads.

    Anyone know where we are on the 85 limit? Seem to recall we were a couple over. That Kirby…he’s a sly one.

    Just think – when he committed to us coming out of Maryland, he was a huge get was our highest rated recruit in quite a while, and many expected him to come in and start almost right away. That alone really puts into perspective the OL recruiting under CMR vs. what Smart and co. have accomplished in a short period of time.

    I guess he didn’t want to be a back up DL….

    Pretty sure we could have found a better target to runoft if that’s what we we’re up to.

      Yeah, I get that his playing outlook on the OL was limited, and I hate that anyone has to leave – he didn’t sound bitter, but he wasn’t happy, either – but it probably is better for him to go where he will get more PT. Not sure that we ‘ran him off’ but he was a long way from being ineffective.

        When you get passed by multiple freshman at your position as a rising redshirt junior, I don’t think it takes a whole lot of persuasion by the coaching staff for the guy to see he might need to leave to find playing time. (assuming that playing time is what every athlete is after)

      I don’t know man. Kirby has already culled most of the wheat from the chaff.

    All the best to Pat Allen, but this is a very good sign about the present and future of our offensive line, especially the interior guys. Watching Ericson, Hill, and Mays on our current second string (with Salyer to arrive in June)…feeling pretty good.

    Best of luck. I hope he finished or can finish his degree before leaving, or land somewhere where they accept all the credits. I can certainly understand leaving for playing time elsewhere. But he’s got to realize by now that he needs that sheepskin.

    I wish him the best and I am curious if the previously-announced transfer restrictions (SEC, Miami, and GT) apply in his case.

    Guess he saw the writing as did Sam Madden, another big body OL that did not work out for either.
