Just to break it down by home state and # of signees:
Georgia 14
Florida 7
South Carolina 4
North Carolina 1
Texas 1

We also know of at least one other GA that's a prefered walk-on that's joining and are saving a couple of scholarships for transfers. And Coach Curry says there is a lot of interest for those.

Congratulations to Bill Curry, his program, and the GA State fans on their historic day. It will be fun to watch your program grow and mature. A mighty high bar has been set a couple of hundred miles to the southeast for you to shoot for.

Congrats to you guys on getting your program off the ground. Look forward to seeing you on the Chuck South OOC schedule in the years to come.

Exactly. And thanks to the well wishers. There have been many State fans that have worked hard to see this through, even when our former AD labled it "a pipe dream". We are looking forward to joining other football fans across this country in supporting our teams, watching the nation's favorite sport, and FINALLY having a fall homecoming!
