Memphis’ Ryan Silverfield Calls Out Georgia’s Driving Incidents in ‘Not Our Standard’ Lesson

He uses a weekly meeting to contrast off-field missteps with the conduct that defines Memphis.

Overview

  • On his Monday radio show, Silverfield cited Georgia’s recurring driving arrests as “not our standard,” joking about a wide receiver “driving 900 miles per hour.”
  • Reports note recent Georgia cases, including Nitro Tuggle being cited in March for reckless driving and speeding at 107 mph before transferring to Purdue.
  • Kirby Smart has defended Georgia’s response as case-by-case, with education, defensive-driving courses, fines via the NIL collective, and occasional suspensions or dismissals reported.
  • Silverfield said his Sunday sessions open with negatives and then highlight “our standard,” such as players doing community service at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital.
  • Some coverage framed the public jab as unusual even as Memphis underscores discipline during a 3-0 start.
