Key Quotes

Georgia Head Coach Wes Johnson

On reflecting on this years success…

 

 

 

 

“You just get a bunch of guys together who started believing in themselves and believing in each other. I’ve said for years that there is talent in this league, and if you can get the right crew together to have confidence, you have a chance. What this group of men did is something I will obviously never forget.”

On next steps for the program…

“As far as next steps, we have to continue to go out and recruit to continue to get good quality players in here that fit our ballpark. If you do that, you put yourself in a position every year to have success.”
