TOPIC: Saturday in Athens

Saturday in Athens

#1 1 year, 11 months ago
Good Morning All, Have been chatting with some of the locals and the feeling is what CMR spoke of being a news buzz. Not related to the 10th street nerds. While CTG gave a position chart to start spring practice with it is written in pencil. He will have the 11 best on the field for what ever down and distance calls for. Ain't no cooike cutter \"D\".. when the ball is snapped you will see 11 players trying to meet and greet whoever is in the unlucky position of having the ball at that time.

To me that is the beauty, players learning and playing several positions. Think what pressure that will put on the \"O\" of a opposing team. It is going to be fun watch us learn and grow. Go Dawgs

Also I am pretty sure its Junior day this weekend. Maybe we get a few more commits. Not that they mean anything this early but its nice to at least have them on paper so other kids know top prospects are looking to go to UGA.

Good post UGAFanDavid. . . . I certainly think along the same lines. Really like your reasoning.

yd1, I knew that what I posted was carried by the AJC. Really like getting David Hale's comments on the happenings at UGA. His blog in my opinon beats all of the material that the \"professionals\" at the paper submit for print. He also writes for the Macon Telegraph, which I am sure you are aware of. . . .

Any under the radar info coming in from Junior day? Was kinda hoping to hear some kids commit. I wasn't expecting to be like Texas and have 10+ commit after but it would have been nice to get 1 or 2 to have on paper.

My source said there were no commits from Jr. Day. Very quiet up there and believe spring practice starts Wed. then they are off all next week for spring break before getting back at it again.

wLayton, yes Jr Day was quite many said they are waiting to make other school visits. I think we will have more traction once we get our product on the field. They good thing is now they have a taste of our program and sense of where we are heading. This will bode well as they see what the others have to offer. To a player they all said they would be back in the fall for a Taste of Athens on a Saturday. Go Dawgs

  • 3 players dismissed by Georgia for team rules violations

    ATHENS — Three players have been kicked off the Georgia football team for an undisclosed violation of team rules.

    UGA coach Mark Richt announced this morning that defensive back Nick Marshall, wide receiver Sanford Seay and  defensive back Chris Sanders have been dismissed from the team. All three are freshmen and were members of Georgia’s 2011 “Dream Team” recruiting class.

    The school did not address what precipitated the dismissals.

    “It’s a privilege to play college football and to be a part of this team and University,” Richt said in a statement. “Along with that privilege comes certain responsibilities. Mistakes were made, and part of...

  • UGA has to report NCAA secondary violation due to comments on Harvey-Clemons

    ATHENS — Georgia will have to report an NCAA secondary violation regarding its recruitment of Josh Harvey-Clemons. But as far as secondary violations go, they don’t get much more secondary than this one.

    Jim Booz, UGA’s senior associate athletic director for compliance, confirmed to The AJC Thursday that coach Mark Richt ran afoul of NCAA bylaws when he commented on Harvey-Clemons shortly after the highly-touted prospect announced on national television his decision to sign with the Bulldogs on Wednesday.

    ATHENS — Josh Harvey-Clemons said he never wavered on his decision to sign with Georgia. He just had to convince his grandfather that it was the best move.

    “I just had to sit down with my family and get everybody on the same page,” said Harvey-Clemons, reached by phone Thursday morning in Valdosta. “He was looking at it as Florida was closer. I’ve got a cousin who still plays at Lowndes and my little brother is going to be in high school next year. Florida is only like an hour and 20 minutes away, so he was thinking about going to...
