Georgia made the only choice that they could have. They played Fields too much last year and it hurt the 2018 offense. You could tell that Fields had great talent, but he wasn't ready last year. Prone to look at one WR and take off running. He also made a common freshman mistake where he thought he could out run SEC defense's without an angle (Against Auburn he turned a 2nd and two into 3rd and 20 by backpedaling and scrambling).
Fromm had won a SEC title and taken the team to the CFP. Fromm is very well-liked with the team. Fields would have been better off going to Penn State or another school from the start if he wanted to be a freshman starter.
As far as UGA running a spread offense this year, the Dawgs didn't have the receivers to do so even if Kirby had wanted to and Fields had stayed. Georgia sent Mecole Hardeman, Riley Ridley, Issac Nauta (TE) and Terry Godwin to the NFL from the 2018 team and JJ Holleman was kicked off the team in the off-season.
On a side note, not that it matters, but I am curious. Caveman Catfan, why do you hate Georgia so much? Did you live in the state? Had an obnoxious UGA fan live next door? Have a Georgia student steal your girlfriend away from you in school? Just curious.
