Georgia head football coach Kirby Smart said he spent a great deal of time in Columbus during his time as a Bulldogs player. On Monday, he returned to the city with a special guest in tow.
Smart and new Georgia men’s basketball coach Tom Crean visited Bulldogs’ fans at the Columbus Convention and Trade Center. The crowd of about 300 people were treated to autographs, photo opportunities and a chance to hear both coaches speak.
“I’m really excited to be here today,” Smart said. “Columbus has always been one of my favorite places to come. I’d come down here a lot in college.
