Smart plan: How Georgia unlocked a college football goliath

Associated Press  

The AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season! “When you have an institutional commitment and a great coach, I think that leads to the success that we’re now having,” Georgia President Jere Morehead told AP last month before the Bulldogs beat Auburn 42-10. “And you know, I think it’s a pretty good, telling statement about what’s happening right now.” Richt spent 15 years as the top ‘Dawg in Athens, leading Georgia to nine double-digit-win seasons, five SEC title game appearances, two conference championships and three top-five finishes in the AP poll from 2001-15. If there had been a four-team College Football Playoff in place during Richt’s tenure, the Bulldogs might have snapped that national title drought years sooner and who knows what would have followed at Georgia. “I think five years ago, we had about 30-some-odd donors who had pledged a million dollars and now we’re up over 100,” Georgia AD Josh Brooks said.
