You may have heard about the team meeting back on Thursday, August 27. The night before, one by one, different members of the UGA football team began to approach Coach Smart about the hurt they personally felt regarding the social injustice facing our nation and world. One by one, players voiced their concerns and the need to talk about it as a team due to how closely it affected a large majority of them.
