Comedian Nate Bergatze may be the hot comedian of the moment (his portrayal of George Washington’s Dream on SNL being one of the rare funny skits in recent living memory), but he’s feeling froggy and going on the ‘crootin trail for 5-star QBs for his favorite team, Vanderbilt.
Now that Vandy is the hot new thang in college football, their newly-famous funny man made a pass or two this past GameDay for our 5-star QB commit Jared Curtis of Nashville Christian.
Kirby’s reaction? He’s “not going to get into gimmicks and stuff”.
Plus, he’s got the big guns of his own should CKS ever feel the need to get our own comedic talent , one who’s gone behind enemy lines and one I would imagine be formidable as a celebrity recruiter for the Dawgs. *
*The last link is to a Facebook post on Jeff Foxworthy’s page, so if you can’t access it, Jeff tells the story of being a lifetime Bulldawg pursuing a degree at Georgia Tech and getting in fights over his Bulldog fandom in the Tech student section. Funny stuff.
Comment below with your Foxworthy-ish take on redneck jokes. I’ll go first:
“If you quit watching the Oscars because “Revenge of the Nerds” got snubbed for a Best Picture nomination, youuuuuuuuuu might be a Jacket.”
If you follow the advice of a comedian on where you should play college football, it ain’t you might be a dumbass, you are a dumbass.
Jeff Foxworthy is a DGD who follows UGA football closely. So, Mr. Foxworthy, if by chance you read this, please know that I’m not referring to you. 😉
If you flip you are 6’4″ Pro-Style QB who flips your commitment to a program whose recent success is based on a triple option attack…you might be a dumbass.
Jared Curtis is not flipping to Vanderbilt.
I think we’ve seen the high water mark of Vandy. Texas will be at them this Saturday and Tennessee will win Thanksgiving weekend.
Needed more coffee or to proof read what I wrote…lol. I had two thoughts in my head to start out that sentence. Oops
After Pavia leaves, if he ever does, Vanderbilt will return to being Vanderbilt, a baseball school
I’m not so sure. Vandy isn’t a one-man success story. They have a lot of really good players on that team. Their defense is stout, and their WRs and RBs are dangerous. Maybe some of the success for their WRs and RBs is because Pavia is dual-threat, but they’ve put a beat down on pretty much everyone except Bama. Lea has a good thing going and I don’t see them reverting to the Vanderbilt mean as long as he is coach.
Agree wholeheartedly. It is a very well coached, disciplined team. Its defense is good
I saw mention where they are the oldest team in CFB. Something BYU always used to an advantage. Also they packaged Pavia’s OC with him in the transfer (something to keep an eye on idea-wise, although we might have the same thing with Gunnar/Bobo ties for close to a decade). I could see Vandy going on a run every four years with Grad school players, 5th year Seniors and transfers looking to finish in the SEC to polish their career for the National Football League opportunities – just ask undrafted free agent Minnesota Viking TE Ben Yuserek.
Unrelated to recruiting, I really enjoy Nate Bargatze’s stand-up routines.
In any stand-up performance, “half the audience should laugh while the other half should be horrified.”

Nate is mid…
Trying to repeat on tv what Herbie did with Raiola ain’t funny either.
If Pavia wins his most recent lawsuit is he starting for Vandy next year too.
I don’t know, but I have grown weary of his trash talking. Kinda hoping Texas hits him so hard his feet curl up like the wicked witch of the East.
I just read on dawgsports.com that the Gameday crew was trying to talk up Curtis flipping to Vandy last week. Since I don’t watch that shitshow, I missed that little nugget. But just when you thought that WWE knockoff couldn’t get any more despicable, they do this.
It was bad enough when Herbstreit got involved with Raiola flipping to Nebraska (in hindsight, thank you Herbie!!), but that was on his own. I think the ESPN brass should fess up and admit that their boys went off the reservation and that they won’t get involved in recruitment in the future.
Game day is no different than Georgia championship wrestling – all about the hype.
I wish they had an Ole Anderson.
Well, they did decide to hire a wrestling announcer to chew on scenes at the expense of football analysis for three hours.
Agent Herbstreit was working on flipping another recruit, a la Raiola. His hate for Georgia is so deep he can’t help himself. I find it funny that his emotional support animal is a dog. Dumbass.
Add to that, the fact that he’s a bitch and the irony never ends.
I think its all about the donut:

If your idea of a threesome is a bottle of Jergen’s and 10 hours of Fortnite, you might be a jacket.
If you go to a family reunion to meet women, you might be a Vol.
That’s a modification of my favorite: You know you’re a redneck if . . . you go to a family reunion to pick up a chick for the weekend.
Y’all make Agent Herbstreit the booggity man recruiter flipper in your heads all you want because Kirby is “not going to get into gimmicks and stuff.”
Traci Lawrence is the only 5 star that Kirby wanted (and he didn’t a full run at him) that’s ever done anything. Five star QBs that don’t go to Georgia to sit and get with program go off to other schools and tank.
And save your Justine Fields nonsense – all he did was choke when it mattered, just like in practice at UGA, and had to play in the B1G because his daddy made him.
It’s been a damn decade and Herbstreit ain’t got anything to do between the lines with Kirby’s wins and losses. Grind some tape instead of believing in conspiracies like Charlie Sierra Auburn fans.
Oh, they’re PISSED I’m holding up the Wendy’s drive-thru, OUT!
Grab a breakfast baconator for me
Kirby won 2 natties with a 5’9″ walk-on QB. So it’s very debatable whether we need a 5 star QB at all.
Stet was great, but let’s not forget that he also had basically the entire Eagles defense to keep the other team from scoring. We’re not getting that level of D again, not in this day and age of NIL/portal. So I’ll gladly take a 5-star QB as long as he isn’t a friggin’ prima donna.
If you just turned 8, and you wonder if Tech will EVER beat Georgia in your lifetime, you might be a jacket.
If your daddy couldn’t make your 8th birthday party because he was busy coaching in Athens, you might be a jacket.
If your granddaddy couldn’t make it because he was busy running the Richt Family Foundation, you might be a jacket.
If the prices at your concession stand are shown in rupees instead of US currency….
you might be a Jacket fan.
If you won’t date a virgin because, “If she’s not good enough for her family, she’s not good enough for me”…..
You might be Junior and she sure ain’t Lulu.
