Brock Bowers Tells His Loudspeaker Moment from Kirby Smart

Kirby Smart's loudspeaker will find anyone during Georgia's practice, even the All-American tight end Brock Bowers.

One thing every Georgia player under Kirby Smart's regime could vouch for is his use of the loudspeaker during their practices. The loudspeaker could be a headhunter for wanting every player on that field to get better and not loaf during practice. Every player has their moment with the loudspeaker, first-round caliber players all the way down to the water crew, one person you wouldn't expect to receive that is the two-time John Mackey award winner, Brock Bowers

Bowers recently joined NBC's Mike Florio and Chris Simms and tells his moment with Smart's loudspeaker. The answer arose from a question about Smart's joking nature and whether you can joke with him or if he is a hard-nosed coach. "Sometimes you kind of want to stray away from that," Bowers stated, "it depends on the moment. Like, if we're at practice and he's yelling at somebody, you don't want to be in his eyesight because he'll jump on you."

They then asked Bowers about the worst time he had his case jumped by the Nick Saban disciple. "I think it was my freshman year. We were going over this one coverage, and I missed it during the game, and we were going over corrections, and I missed it again, and he just jumped in me bad on the loud mic over the loudspeaker over the whole indoor. It's pretty funny looking back on it." 

Those familiar with the Georgia program and how practices are run know all about the loudspeaker Smart utilizes during their practices. Even when walking around Stegman Collesium, you get a nice view of the loudspeakers on the lights that shine onto the practice field, but you would never have imagined that it would be Bowers hearing his name called over it. Either way, the loudspeaker will find you.
