Thanks wlayton. As you said, I'm sure things are pretty hush, hush right now. Everything will come out in the wash. Feel bad for his family having to go through this.

I'm with ya fire_dawg, his mother has to be very upset and embarrassed by this. Too bad, the kid needs to grow up.

I guess I was the last to hear the news. Too bad for ZM. Too bad for UGA too. Now I hate the off-season even more.

I think we'll still be okay this fall. But it sure would have been nice to have an \"insurance\" QB on the sidelines. Maybe Hutson will be a quick learner and give us a third option in the case of injury.

Rats.

Cross fingers again for this young man.

Yeah, Christian LeMay would be a major haul, and it looks very good at this point. I'm a little confused at the consternation surrounding this ordeal. It's not like we don't have options. Sure, Hutson Mason loses his red shirt, but honestly, is that a big deal at all? How long would he have played anyway? And let's not forget that red shirting talented players has kicked us in the ass in the past. Knowshon, anyone? I think this is a great thing. If Zach screwed up, it's Zach's fault. We can't have it both ways. We either want a coach with a set of cajones, or we want to be loaded with thugs and malcontents who walk over the rules because they feel they are better than the program, more important. NO. I say this is great. It just means HM needs to step up a little more. We still have three QBs. ZM is obviously more suited to U of Miami type deals, or Tennessee.

I am on the same page LimeyDawg. Let's get this program on the right track and move forward. Too many superior athletes have moved through Athens without direction in some cases. Can't have the inmates running the prison. That was said with tongue in cheek. Young folks need discipline/guidance and these football players are young men that need both. Good post LD.

Obviously the situation in South Georgia warranted his removal.
Strangely, it may make this team stronger.
