Look at the top 10 players in the state this year--not one of them will be coming to UGA. Just get 2 of them each year and we are top 15-20.
Why is our swim team great??? A coach MADE the program. Why is our girl's softball team great? A coach made the program. (BTW, that softball team had the #1 ranked class in the nation last year and about 5 of those freshmen started; they will be sophomores this year. A top 4 team and a good chance to win it all.)
So true.....funny, with the exception of being a good recruiter, most golf coaches are more of a chaperone than a coach.....but UGA has won many titles......2 NC's and 26 SEC titles along with many individual titles. Plus many on the PGA tour etc.
Very successful program.....my brother played on a couple of the SEC Championship teams in the early '60's.
