“I said, ‘Hey, Sony you got all these folks fooled, man,’ because he was tearing it up,” coach Kirby Smart said. “I’m sure there were scouts and their coaches were over there going, “Good grief, he looks fast.’”
The Georgia football equipment Twitter feed even posted a photo of the running backs jerseys before the game in the locker room that included Michel’s No.
