Kirby Smart is aware of Georgia’s hatred for Florida. And when he compared Georgia quarterback Jake Fromm to Florida legend Tim Tebow, he knew “people were going to cringe.”
A Bulldog being compared to a Gator is not something either side likes to hear, but we’ll make an exception for one former Florida player, and that’s Tebow.
And on Tuesday at SEC Media Days, Smart explained to the SEC Network the similarities he sees in the two of them as it relates to their leadership styles and their faith in God.
“(Fromm is) strong — and he’s strong in his faith,” Smart told the SEC Network.
