The suspension of Georgia running back Todd Gurley for allegedly signing memorabilia for money has hit Georgia fans hard.
Gurley was the offensive lifeblood of the team and a Heisman candidate (some would say a shoo-in to win), so two Georgia grads decided to vent their feelings about Gurley’s absence in a song.
John Hunter Bowen and Ross van Zyl, who graduated in 2013, started the #FreeGurley social media campaign and wrote a three minute song to express their disappointment in Gurley’s suspension.
It’s brilliant and has a Saturday Night Live digital short feel to it.
Usually fan songs can be lame and ridiculous, but this one has good music and the lyrics are clever. We can only hope Gurley hears it and realizes just how deeply his suspension has affected some fans.
