2. Walker was an incredible running back for UGA, but had minimal true intellect or articulate ability

to express himself. As far as I've seen from those post-football game interviews to the massive embarrassment of his Senate run, to now, I don't think a lot has changed. But, I think Trump or his cronies looked at the Bahamas (predominantly black population), thought, Hey, Herschel! That's the ticket. And while he is grotesquely unqualified, he might actually find a way (with good staff) to do a reasonably good job. Trump supporter or no, I don't see Herschel as being MAGA-CRUEL, so I think he will try to do his best. I still think he has some of the influence of his late coach, the great Vince Dooley (who really tried to be somewhat of a father-figure to him) continuing.

I hate that he is once again a totally unqualified pawn for MAGA-Trump. I hate that he supports all that crap, or is too unaware/willfully ignorant to have accepted the monster that Trump is and those who surround him. But as cronies go, he won't be the worst appointment imo.

That said, this is how most UGA fans (myself included) really WANT to remember him. All else is disappointing...
