I&#8217;m worried to worry the day after the game to worry about who we were going to sign,&#8221; Smart said. &#8220;I kind of told our team when we came back, I said, &#8216;Look, guys, I believe in these mind tricks where when people tell you something, it triggers something.  Every time someone tells me congrats on the national championship \u2014 and there have been a gazillion of those \u2014 I tell myself each week, this week I&#8217;m going to call three more recruits.  Next week, I&#8217;m going to think about what we can do on third down better.&#8217;  I tell our players when you hear that comment, you need to think about what have you done today to be better for tomorrow.  It just triggers my brain to go somewhere else.  My brain has been somewhere else a lot because of that because we&#8217;ve gotten a lot of that.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Below is what Smart had to say in full following Saturday&#8217;s scrimmage.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;\n    <\/p><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/plain\" class=\"optanon-category-4\">\n    if(typeof fbq === 'undefined') {\n        !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n        n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\n        n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.defer=1;\n        t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\n        document,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n        fbq('init', '320233411816140');\n        fbq('init', '1575186632756631');\n        fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    }\n<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; &#13; The Georgia Bulldogs continue to work through fall camp in preparation for the 2022 season.
