Georgia football podcast: Roster management, Playoff prep makes for busy December for UGA

Beginning of the show: December is always a busy month on the college football calendar, and this year it’s arguably busier than ever -- now that an open transfer portal coincides with the beginning of the early signing period for high school recruits and the continued preparations for the College Football Playoff.

I’ll discuss on today’s show how Georgia is managing all these tasks -- including a closer look at five-star running back Justice Haynes, who reaffirmed his Alabama pledge in a DawgNation story this week, and a high-profile transfer target who might be an acceptable fallback option for some Bulldogs fans if UGA isn’t able to convince Haynes to flip.

I’ll also spend some time at the beginning of the show sharing condolences regarding the passing of Mississippi State coach Mike Leach.

15-minute mark: I discuss what UGA staffer Buster Faulkner leaving to become offensive coordinator at Georgia Tech means for the Bulldogs ahead of the Peach Bowl against Ohio State.

20-minute mark: DawgNation’s Connor Riley joins the show.

40-minute mark: I take a look at other SEC headlines including the possibility Texas and Oklahoma could join the SEC sooner than originally expected.

50-minute mark: Former UGA quarterback Jake Fromm joins the show.

End of show: I award a Golden Shoe winner and share the Gator Hater Countdown.

After the show: I take questions and comments as part of the Podcast Cool Down.
