Kirby Smart got his biggest win of the year on the recruiting trail this afternoon. Richard LeCounte is coming back to Athens for one more year as a Bulldog.
LeCounte finished the season with two key interceptions in Georgia’s 26-14 Sugar Bowl win over Baylor. Some speculated that LeCounte would see that performance as a perfect high note to go out on, but the former 5-Star Safety evidently wants to show more of his skills to scouts before heading to the NFL.
LeCounte finally began realizing his potential in his third season under Kirby Smart.
