Five UGA head coaches, including football coach Kirby Smart, appear in a public-service video released on the university’s athletics twitter account.

The video offers guidance for UGA students transitioning to online learning for the remainder of the semester. Men’s and women’s basketball coaches Tom Crean and Joni Taylor appear in the video along with baseball coach Scott Stricklin, gymnastics coach Courtney Kupets-Carter.

Smart’s message at the end of the minute-long video: “Stay safe, attack the day and hunker down.”
