Actor, Dawgs Fan Samuel L. Jackson Visits UGA Football Team

Jamie Ponsoldt and his crew are shooting in Athens, but Samuel L. Jackson's Thursday visit had nothing to do with movies, and everything to do with college football.

Players were tweeting about His Coolness. Posing for photos with the team and head football coach Mark Richt.
