Steelers and UGA players

[dawgball]

Is it me or is there an inordinate number of players from UGA that play iwth the Steelers at some point.

Fred Gibson who will probably be best known for his block in last night's game may have been able to shore up a roster spot with that one play. It seems that for some reason UGA players and the Steelers seem to mesh well.

Current players:
Hines Ward
Verron Haynes
Fred Gibson
Arnold Harrison

Left this year:
Kendrell Bell

I know it's just 5 in recent history but that seems like a lot from one school.

is there someone in the coaching staff that used to be at georgia? ...or at least the sec?

I couldn't find anything on that. It always seems that the players get a lot tougher once they get with the Steelers, too. Fred Gibson was notorious all through college to be too scared to block somebody.

they showed a stat during the dolphins-bears game that amazed me. with all the miami hurricanes that go pro, brock berlin and some other guy i never heard of a while ago have apparently been the only ones drafted by the dolphins in all these years.
