Honestly, I think this what needs to happen:
Pruitt names Maurer the starter right away. Screw the narrative of "UGA doesn't need to know who to gameplan for".....
Second, announce that you want to do an Orange Out with the Vol Shop's custom UT shirt the kid who was bullied made. I saw where Vol Shop had over 100K orders of the shirt.
Third, announce that half the beer sales for UGA would go to that Bullying charity the Vol Shop is donating to with shirt sales....
This is the only big home game for us. Give it one last hoorah and go all out.
The energy of Maurer being the starter should inject some, not a lot, energy to get people to the game.
The orange out with those shirt should inject some energy as well
The donations thru beer sales should inject some energy as well.
