Georgia garnered an advantage over the Tigers on the recruiting trail thanks to a piece of state legislation that was signed into law on Thursday morning.
Governor Brian Kemp took a trip down to Athens and visited Sanford Stadium to sign Georgia’s name, image and likeness bill that allows for student-athletes to receive compensation for the use of their name, image and likeness.
Kemp told onlookers that he thinks the bill will help Kirby Smart and the Bulldogs win a national championship.
