A LOT OF IT FOCUSED ON THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA AND KIRBY.

>> KIRBY AFTER GEORGIA THROTTLED FLORIDA LAST WEEK, HE WAS ASKED ABOUT THE TALENT HE HAS ON THE ROSTER AND KIRBY SAYS RECRUITING ALWAYS BEATS OUT COACHING.

THIS SHOULD SOUND FAMILIAR.

THIS IS THE KIND OF THING THAT NICK SABAN HAS BEEN SAYING ALL THESE YEARS.
