ATLANTA — You can see the off-field problems escalating for Georgia’s football program.
Four years ago, it was bar fights, minor traffic violations and possession of marijuana. Then it was habitual speeding and reckless driving by players, peaking with a street race that resulted in the death of two people in January. Now it’s 11 cases of football players remaining with the team after women reported violent encounters with them and UGA football siding with an accused player over an alleged victim who worked for the program.
Those are the latest revelations from the AJC’s deep and detailed reporting on problems in and around UGA football. At the same time those issues are increasing, Kirby Smart’s accountability is decreasing.
