Murray drops the glove (plus other news and notes from UGA camp)
ATHENS — Here you go, the first bits of news from Georgia’s preseason camp:
- After wearing a glove on his throwing hand throughout spring practice, quarterback Aaron Murray said he has rethought the matter and will not wear a glove in preseason camp or during the season. “I tried it on and off throughout the summer but just decided I felt more comfortable without the glove,” Murray said today. “I think I’m fine without it.”
- The plan, at least at the moment, is for quarterback-turned-wide receiver Logan Gray to take no practice reps at QB. But coach Mark Richt said Gray has been told to stay “mentally prepared” to play QB, and that the situation might be reassessed in a few weeks depending on how true freshman Hutson Mason is progressing as Murray’s potential backup.
- So for now Georgia has a redshirt freshman (Murray), a true freshman (Mason) and two walk-ons (freshmen Parker Welch and Greg Bingham) at quarterback. “The quarterback room has got to be youngest room in the history of college football,” Richt said. “A little bit scary in there.”
- Starting inside linebacker Akeem Dent will miss most of preseason camp after undergoing toe surgery last week, but Richt says it’s still possible Dent could be ready to play in the Bulldogs’ season opener Sept. 4 against Louisiana-Lafayette.
- Freshman offensive lineman Kolton Houston is sidelined with a foot injury. Not clear how long he’ll be out.
- Richt said he doesn’t know how long it’ll take the NCAA investigation to play out but said all players are eligible for practice.
- Georgia takes the practice field for the first time of the 2010 preseason at 3:25 p.m.

Paul Johnson wouldn’t have let this happen. He’d have at least 3 backup QBs and NONE would wear a glove. THAT’S the difference in the coaches at the two schools. Paul Johnson would have thrown this Michael Jackson wannabee out of school. Heck, he probablyl can’t even do calculus with that stupid glove on. I’m glad Murray went to ugag rather than tech. He’s a disgrace. Probably doesn’t wear a pocket protector either.

No way UGA wins in the ACC with that group of QB’s, even if Grantham is able to work miracles. Reality on the defensive side is that improvement to league average is more likely than becoming a shutdown unit overnight.

Bowman is the kid who wanted to go to UGA all his life but was only a partial academic qualifer. Signed with bamer instead. One of the top WRs in the state, maybe 6′4″, 210lbs. Must have been a bust if you don’t know who he is. I believe bamer is also recruiting his little brother.

Here’s more about Bowman:
Georgia receiver Michael Bowman visited and committed, just like said he would earlier this week.
Bowman is No. 51 on the Press-Register’s Super Southeast 120. He grew up a fan of Georgia but was reportedly waiting to receive a full scholarship offer from the Bulldogs. He is thought to still have work to do academically to qualify for 2009.
“I’m gonna get my grades up,” Bowman told CrimsonConfidential.com. “I’m still working on it. I have plenty of time though.”

Roll Tider, Bowman signed a couple years ago. 4 star WR, little brother of Adarius Bowman who would have been a 1st round pick except he got busted with a lot of drugs in Meigs Co. Tn two weeks before the draft. He was the WR at OSU after transferring from UNC after playing for Notre Dame HS in Chattanooga (kicked out b/c of mary jane) Sadly, he wasn’t even drafted and is now playing in the CFL. Good talent. Million dollar body, ten cent brain. Are you caught up yet?

Hey Tim! According to the Princeton Review, UGA is the nation’s no. 1 party school! Also, my University of the South – Sewanee broke the top 20, unsurprisingly, and is the only liberal arts school in the top twenty! Yea, Sewanee’s Right!!! Go Tigers!!! Seriously, though, I share your concerns about the quarterback position. I think young Mr. Murray is going to do just fine, and maybe even excel, but he cannot get hurt. There is no depth whatsoever behind him. Barring injury to Murray, I see a strong season this year. The defense should be MUCH improved. Grantham and Lakatos are both good coaches. And we have experience, talent, and (apart from the QB position) depth on offense.

No insider info, just eye test from last year and knowing what everyone is bringing back. I just think UGA, even with Grantham, will struggle with Garcia and Mallet. I think Auburn with Newton and Malzahn will be tough for everyone this year and UF is loaded with athletes. Overall the conference will be down somewhat with Bama and UF meeting in Atlanta again. Though Auburn and Arky may pose problems for us as well.

Tech lifer talking about UGA embarrassing the state is a laugher. Tech getting scorched in the Smurfterf Bowl by Our Lady of Basketweaving State was an embarrassment….Bill Lewis…Buddy Curry…Chan Gailey…Decades and decades of being the state of Georgia’s answer to Vanderbilt…51-7 loss to UGA…Ball throwing the ball away on 4th down rather than take a hit. Bay-Bay choking and dropping a wide open pass. Eeking out one victory in a decade and having rings made to mark the occasion…now these are true embarrassments….Ya’ll have been so bad for so long that one ten win season makes your crow like roosters. We’ve had six in the last nine years btw…and are 7-2 in bowl games under Richt. I believe Tech’s bowl record in the same time period has been 2-6…Tsk Tsk…talk about embarrassing.

UGA articles are for anyone to read, i suppose. When the UGA haters get inolved, I always think back to middle school, where the ugly, scrawny kid ALWAYS pulled the hair and called the pretty girl in the class “ugly”. Why/?? Because that punk wanted that girl’s attention. On this site? I suppose the UGA haters either have NO BLOG to go to, because they have no collegiate ala mater or they are jealous of UGA. If they are true grads of an Alabama or UT or LSU, Auburn, Florida, or even GT, they have serious jobs and are too busy to sit and bang away all of this child like ” I hate UGA” vitriole. Me? I am retired. UGA Class of 71 & 73 thank you.
Why are they jealous?? We all know that “UGA has no NC’s” so why are the UGA fans (grads) so excited about this year or 2002 or 2008 or 2009 ?? ………….. because they are fans ….. with or without that fabled NC lately. We love our ala mater and all the haters just reinforce the love for UGA.
heck …………family memners for generations have graduated from UGA and that is another reason for the hate ………… jelousy of UGA traditions. They attend even without that NC.
Folks, the NC is nice, but it ain’t the reason you go to a university. NCs are primarily for guys that really care about the NBA and the NFL playoffs and the Super Bowl. I could care less about that stuff. This is the key.
Go Dogs.

CMR takes the CEO approach to coaching and doesnt know the names of the new players. CMR is not hands on anymore. Vince Dooley did the same after winning the MNC in 1980 and became a CEO and thus not as many wins after a few years. Same with Richt….not as many wins in the conference.

“mentally prepared” to play QB, and that the situation might be reassessed in a few weeks depending on how true freshman Hutson Mason is progressing as Murray’s potential backup.
Good Grief, what does this statement say about the state of UGA football. CMR sure has a whole lot of confidence in his young QB……

Willie Wonka Dawg,
“Oompa loompa QB”–that’s very clever. You know who else is an oompa loompa by your standards? The QB who’s led the NFL in passing for 2 consecutive seasons and was last year’s MVP. Murray will be fine. #3 QB in the country and was the MVP at the Elite QB camp.

Hey Einsteindawg, Had Murray not been injured i believe he would have gotten significant playing time..I for one am glad they didn’t get him in there and waste a season or possibly having him reinjured before he was truly healed…with that being said a case can be made of not getting Logan Gray alot more playing time, but i have to feel that the coaching staff did not think he was their answer at QB and that Joe was our best answer last season…but your point is well taken but Murray really was not a viable option last year as he just wasn’t 100% heatthy…

Why isn’t he going to wear a glove? All the top NFL QBs use gloves. With murray’s little hands, the ball will be slipping out half the time for fumbles. Richt should make him wear gloves.

College is a time to develop a work ethic, matriculate, focus in on ones career, drink and poke smot, and of course, tap as much split tail as possible. Why would you NOT party!?

marcweiszer The entire practice was supposed to be open to media, but Richt changed those plans more than halfway through and closed rest of practice. Athens Banner
They must have looked terrible, especially the children at QB. In Richt’s own words:
“The quarterback room has got to be youngest room in the history of college football,” Richt said. “A little bit scary in there.”

I can’t understand why everybody assumes Murray will not be a factor. He has the same experience David Greene had (who won the most games in college history prior to Colt McCoy), and Murray comes in as the 3rd best QB in the nation. Y’all are acting like he’s a real problem. I think he’ll have a lot of bloggers eating crow by game 3.
