Football: Kirby Smart Gives an Update on Jamie Newman’s Progress

But recently during an interview with ESPN’s David Pollack and Kevin Negandhi, Smart said he’s been nothing but impressed with Newman when he appeared on the College Football Podcast.

“We’re excited and Jamie has been a great addition to our program,” said Smart. “We didn’t really get to see him through the spring, but we did get to see him in spring workouts and the first thing that pops out at you is his leadership ability.
