Brian Herrien, the senior running back who’s done everything right in Athens, went out on top against the Yellow Jackets Saturday.
Not only did Herrien finish his Bulldog career 3-1 against Tech, but also the classiest player on either side of the rivalry behind the scenes.
When everyone else was boarded up on the buses to head back to Athens, Herrien stayed as long as he could at the gates, smiling and taking pictures for fans after scoring a touchdown earlier in the game.
TOUCHDOWN!!!!!

The former three-star from Douglasville had just celebrated beating Tech on the field and was forced to get on the bus, after making young fans’ days for several minutes at Bobby Dodd Stadium.
Brian Herrien is such a Damn Good Dawg y’all. He stayed at the gates to sign every list item for young fans and take pictures before getting on the bus. Gonna miss him next season. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ pic.twitter.com/ZVpXrrJSE0

However this season ends, we’ll always be grateful for Brian Herrien and are grateful he is a Dawg!
