Rumor has it he put on fifteen pounds and grew another half inch between May camps and July camps. He is now 6’2.5″ and 191, and is just a ninth grader.
I am a former principal and my kids thought it was the coolest thing in the world that I had keys to the school and school gym, where we’d play away many a weekend together over the years. Imagine if you dad has the keys to this place.
Cough. Say what you will about Uncle Mike, but having a head coach dad who is best friends with a QB coach that played at the college level is something of a benefit to young talent development.
Watch out for Lane, Andrew! Surely Kirby wouldn’t let Kiffin be a part of his kids life if he turns out to be that level of a QB prospect.
Big questions that go beyond measureables:
1. Would Mary Beth allow her boy to play for Kirby?
2. Would Andrew want to go through Kirby’s practices?
The bigger question is whether Kirby and Andrew would want to deal with the questions about him playing at UGA.1
I am guessing if Andrew proves he’s worthy of a scholarship offer, Kirby will offer him and say I’ll take the NIL off the bill you have amassed over the last 18 years.
I’m sort of kidding about that.
I wonder if Kirby is still coaching because he’s waiting to coach Andrew?
Practice the quick outs for the bubble screen kid if you want a future with Uncle Mike.
Agree. His receivers will have better pass route schemes at Athens Academy.
He gets his height from his basketball playing Mom. When it comes time to go to college, it’s going to be a bit of a problem.
