Time to reset?

Bobo convinced Colorado State to dramatically improve its facilities, but recruiting enough players on defense has been a huge problem – the CSU defense ranked 117  this past season.. His right hand man, both at Georgia and then at Colorado State, offensive line coach Will Friend, left for Tennessee last year. Bobo has experienced serious health issues. The guaranteed ten million aside, a career reset, or even personal reset – a return to the Georgia home folks and family – seems like a good idea.

But who puts aside ten million dollars, right?

And then there’s Kirby Smart – Bobo’s former teammate and South Georgia buddy. Or is he?
