ATHENS – UGA officials confirmed Saturday night what Jordan Love hinted about via Twitter. The redshirt sophomore cornerback is leaving Georgia and will seek to continue his football career elsewhere.

Love
Love sent this message out via Twitter Saturday evening: “It’s been real Athens. . . . All good things come to an end.”
Georgia spokesman Claude Felton later confirmed Love’s departure to reporters covering the Bulldogs’ basketball game against Alabama Saturday night.
Love could not be reached for comment. But he did talk to Gentry Estes of Dawgs247.com, saying: “I don’t want to say anything about it right now. When I get everything together I’ll let y’all know.”
Love played sparingly as a backup cornerback for the Bulldogs his two seasons in Athens. This past season he recorded 12 tackles while appearing in 8 games, with most of his work coming on special teams. As a freshman, he played in all 13 games and finished with 9 tackles.
Georgia lost cornerback Brandon Boykin out of its starting secondary from last season. The rest of the unit returns intact and the Bulldogs have several rising sophomores who are expected to compete for playing time, including Nick Marshall, Damian Swann and Chris Sanders.

If you feel you can’t compete for playing time, transfer out is the way to go. Some guys can step up to th competition. Some guys figure it out (see Malcom) and some guys see the writing on the wall. I will choose to say that he saw his talent and game was not at the same level as the guys coming up and made a rational decision. I for one wish the young man all the best in his future.

Does anybody know what percentage of Georgia football player’s get a shot at Pro ball? Nationwide I think it is approx. 10%. Georgia’s probably not much higher. The point is when will the average recruit accept his limitation’s and be thankful for the all expense, paid for, free college education that he is getting. The primary focus for all college player’s should be what are they going to major in and finishing that education with a degree so they can get a good job when they graduate.

I think there’s a feeling in Athens that it’s not a competition at certain positions. Certain players, like Murray, seem immune from competition. Not sure why. Thought Mason played terrific against LSU and Mason has a better 2nd half passer rating than Murray. Mason & Lemay looked better than Murray over the Spring. Murray played well with the first stringers in the New Mexico game (5 td’s in the 2nd quarter), because he knew Hutson Mason was playing the 2nd half with the backups. Competion made murray MUCH better in that game. But when Murray isn’t ever benched for poor play, like LSU did their QB, then apathy sets in. And you get a guy in Murray, who led the SEC in turnovers at QB and had 9 turnovers that led directly to the 3 losses to LSU, Mich St and South Caro. Murray’s 0-9 vs. top 20 ranked teams, and is a 1 man turnover machine that cost UGA 3 games. Mason played so well against LSU and Murray so badly I thought Mason earned the starter for the Bowl game. Les Miles went to his bench when his QB struggled, Richt will not, not matter how many games Murray loses.

Who cares about the Atlanta Braves ? They don’t have any money to buy a players obviously needed, and never are in the hunt for the top players. We haven’t been any good since Ted Turner bought Montana with the Time Warner money, when they pushed him out to pasture.
Atlanta Hawks, please. They don’t know how to draft players. What do they have ? 5 players all the same size all playing the same position and pieces they pick up no one else wants.
Atlanta Falcons ? Really. When we get an easier NFL schedule because we lost too many games the previous year, we win a few more games during the following season. Then, lose in the play-offs – like we do whenever we get there.
They have stolen two hockey teams from us. I am supposed to support that sport ?
Look, Atlanta is a world-class city of 6 million. You put all the menus downtown, Atlanta Falcons playing inside in one of the few cities where outside would give us an advantage. It is a small venue. There is no semblance of an effort to provide real areas for tail-gating. When you go under the bridges, they give you port-a-poties and not a vendor in site to buy anything. You go inside to the food court, and there is NOTHING to eat, nothing at all. You cannot even buy a bag of boiled peanuts.
And, I am supposed to feel badly about us supporting these 3 teams ? Arthur Blank and Smith are trying. I will give them that – something the other 2 have made no effort at, after Rankin Smith ran this franchise into the ground.
This is a college football town. Always has been. Always will be. Is there even another blog in this city, other than college football ? Our passion is college football.

I think if Lemay is a competitor and a leader, he’s not going to come back and watch Murray form the bench. I can’t imagine any real competitor being ok with being a backup who never gets significant reps. If neither transfer for the 2nd straight year, kind of says to me they arn’t competitors and are happy being No. 2 when they know by Richt’s actions he doesn’t change his mind at QB.

Be factual, Mason will probably transfer – his playing time is either against scrubs or against beat down opponents. He wants to start – even contemplating reshirting – may wind up at UT Chattanooga or Georgia Southern. LeMay is commnitted to UGA.
No reports out of Athens about LeMay – in fact, he stated toward the end of the season he is looking forward to this spring and competing for time next year. Murray is one hit away from out of a game – you have to have quality backups.

some of you guys have no freaking clue what you are talking about. You said murray played better in the new mexico state game cause he knew Hutson would play so that made him play bette. So in other games he just says f-it mason aint playing who cares. Some of yall believe every rumor you here and do not realize every team will have someone transfer. Bama with all the talent they are stockpiling will start having this problem. They had guys leave last yr. Really if a guy transfers it usually has nothing to do with the coaching unless the person transfering is a starter. If the person is way down on the depth chart do you think he is leaving cause of the coach or the fact that he realizes he will never see the field and he feels like he could play elsewhere. Some of you people get on here trying to stir the pot and create rumors but you just sound like you probably where a bench riders yourself.

YES HE HAS A MIDDLE NAME.
At 15 minutes before midnight July 5, not last year, the year before – almost July 6 Jordan LAWRENCE Love was shooting off fireworks in a state where fireworks are illegal. 2 days AFTER July 4th.
There was some flack out of Virginia where Jordan LAWRENCE Love is from, from his mama who said that his Daddy’s name is LAWRENCE who names his son’s middle name after him at birth and that SHE didn’t use the name.
But, that isn’t all there was to it.
6′ 0″ tall 185 lbs he was a 4-Star recruit who had played cornerback and running back with 4.48 speed and the # 21 cornerback recruit nationally. He also returned punts and kick-offs.
He is now 21 years old, and a year and a half ago :
(1) He could not or would not provide the Police with LAWRENCE as his middle name.
(2) He told the police that he wasn’t sure what his middle name is
(3) He said he might take a shot at guessing it
(4) But, that he wasn’t sure that he could actually remember it
(5) LAWRENCE
(6) About as easy a name as there is.
Then, the police asked him his date of birth.
(7) He could not tell them that either.
What he could provide to the police was :
(8) A cigarette lighter in his pocket outside McWhorter Hall in the Courtyard there.
(9) Fireworks in his pockets
Jordan LAWRENCE Love, 19 years old at the time, was the only person with any fireworks or cigarette lighters on their person at the time of the complaint from the residents.
You might remember this year, and this again you might not. This was a minor incident, which was marked really only by the fact that a 19-year old top recruit nationally for UGA :
- could not or would not provide police his middle name
- could not provide his date of birth even either

LSU and South Caro coaches are fair, if QB’s don’t eprform, they’re benched, guys respect that. Richt doesn’t allow competition on the field in real games. That’s why UGA gets so many transfers at QB, Mettenberger, Gray, now Mason/Lemay possibly too.

AARON MURRAY we are STUCK WITH AS OUR STARTER ANOTHER 2 MORE YEARS, although if he were ANY GOOD AT ALL, he would be going to the NFL right now today, just like ALL THE REALLY GOOD QUARTERBACKS recruited at the same time he was – which was by the way December 2008 when he 1st practiced with this football team. Aaron Murray has started his 4th year now being on our campus practicing with our team. He still is NOT AN ATHLETE and he STILL DOESN’T LIFT ANY WEIGHTS. He is PUNY.
I like the way Les Miles does it too. Even better than the way Steve Spurrier does it. I actually like the way Chris Petersen does it better than BOTH Miles and Spurrier.
SOS will take a Quarterback after he FUMBLES the ball to give the MOMENTUM to Michigan State after a season full of fumbles, sacks and interceptions that LOST EVERY GAME WE LOST THIS ENTIRE SEASON and after HE HAS LOST 41 PERCENT OF HIS STARTS DOING EXACTLY THE SAME, and Steve O. Spurrier will then YANK HIM right that second and send out Hutson Mason on the next series. He will yank Hutson Mason as soon as he does something equally horrendous.
Les Miles will say his Starter is clearly undeniably Jarrett Lee, after Jordan Jefferson returns to the team after the kicking in the face brawl suspension. Then, he will find an opportunity to put in Jordan Jefferson and play him some. Then, when Jarrett Lee isn’t performing, BEFORE THE GAME IS LOST, he will leave Jordan Jefferson on the field to be the ON FIELD, FIELD GENERAL. Even then, Jarrett Lee will get MEANINGFUL SNAPS.
Note please that so too, will Les Miles, while ALL THIS IS GOING ON, he will STILL ALSO PLAY Zach Mettenberger. Zach Mettenberger got MORE CHANCES TO PLAY THIS SEASON THAN HUTSON MASON AND AGAINST FAR BETTER COMPETITION THAN HUTSON MASON SAW WITH A CHANCE TO ACTUALLY HAVE A REAL OPPORTUNITY HERE.
Then, there is Chris Petersen. Watched him face-to-face. He didn’t YANK his QB. Kellen Moore played the whole entire game. All during the game, including right off the bat, he sent in his back-up Quarterback he is GROOMING. He had a complete ENTIRE PACKAGE for the back-up. Sent them in and everyone knew exactly what they were doing. Very scripted. Excellent. And, they screwed us up with it too. Later on, he did it again and again successful. Kellen Moore would come right back in. Never missed a beat.
Jarrett Lee didn’t miss a beat when Jordan Jefferson was playing. Jordan Jefferson didn’t miss a beat when Jarrett Lee was playing. Neither Jordan Jefferson nor Jarrett Lee either one missed a beat when Zach Mettenberger played.
When did our Offensive Geniuses do ANY of this all 12 years now of this failed # 52 NCAA Offense all 11 years to-date and surely more of the same 2012, other than when Coach Donald Shockley MADE MARK RICHT PROMISE TO HIM, NOT DJ, THAT MARK RICHT WOULD PLAY DJ SHOCKLEY EVERY GAME, EARLY IN EVERY GAME, IF HE – NOT DJ – ACCEPTED THE REDSHIRT 2001 ?

Murray, in my opinion is hot and cold on the hot passes…he has the arm, and has thrown the ball well in those situations many times..Its about timing, protection, WR’s getting off the blocks and running the correct patterns…Do I think he could improve…Yes..Is his arm as strong as Stafford’s..No, but the complaint we heard about Stafford was that he either threw it too hard or overthrew his receivers alot of times..I think Murray is accurate and can make all the throws when given the time to do so…Of course you might say that about any QB…I think one of the points I am trying to make is that the 2nd String or backup QB is usually the most popular guy on the team…At least from the fans perspective….go dawgs

Glancer, QBs may also appreciate the fact that when they do get their shot at starting, their head coach has a history of sticking with a QB if he has a bad stretch ratjer than pulling him like a happy trigger finger. Personally, I think he should gave been benched a couple times. Most of AM mistakes came late in games. So u have to think ,… benching him and bringing in a backup to run a two minute offense is hard decision to make.

Mason knows the offense as well, if not better than Murrary. I see them in practices. Lemay is just recently picking it up and showing his stuff in recent practices. Both Mason and Lemary can throw all the passes needed for the offense. They are both more consistely accurate than Murray. Both of them can see over the line of scrimmage better than Murrary (they are a good bit taller). Mason is exceptionally accurate in hitting receivers in stride on any route. Judging by the practices, Mason has a gripe about not being allowed to compete in games – he sure does the job at practices. And he sure wouldn’t hurt the team any more than it’s being hurt by Murray.

Who cares if Aaron Murray is the best QB we’ve got right now ?
He has had the
HEEBIE-JEEBIES every game all 9 vs teams finishing top 25.
PUT THE OTHER GUY IN
Let Aaron Murray get over his
HEEBIE-JEEBIES.
Once Aaron Murray fumbled in the Michigan State game, the HEEBIE-JEEBIES had HIT HIM
AGAIN.
Instead, we threw him RIGHT BACK INTO THE FIRE
And, he got sacked
4 times sacked
2 times threw interceptions
fell on his FACE about 6 other times before someone hit the little guy
Ran the offense into the ground
WITH A 16-POINT LEAD.
This is just the MOST RECENT GAME.
You know, the one a week ago ?
The game before that, HE GOT YANKED.
Way too late, but got YANKED.
He started the season off really slowly with his HEEBIE-JEEBIES to ruin this season in Game 1.
And, in Game 2 thrown right back into the fire
WITH NO OPPORTUNITY TO GET OVER THE HEEBIE-JEEBIES.
And, he was WAY WORSE IN GAME 2 THAN GAME 1.
Then, he proceeded to have a FAR WORSE 2011 than Aaron Murray had in 2010.
Every little cupcake he could do nothing with to have us be able to even
SEE IF HUTSON MASON can play this game.
We gave him a SCHOLARSHIP.
He has EVERY RIGHT to EXPECT MARK RICHT TO PLAY HIM.
Same with Jordan Love.
Jordan Love NEVER GOT TO PLAY HERE.
One of the top cornerbacks in the nation, he NEVER PLAYED.
He was thrown onto the junk heap, Mark Richt’s DOGHOUSE when he could not even remember at age 19 what is his
DATE OF BIRTH.

Please quit making excuses.
Mark Richt yesterday stated that AARON MURRAY IS GREAT.
No, he isn’t.
It’s a LIE.
Mark Richt says this just to BUILD UP HIS FAVORITE PLAYERS.
Mark Richt thinks of Aaron Murray as himself.
A guy, Mark Richt, who threw all of 11 complete passes one entire year at Miami of Florida, then the next year, threw all of 3 complete passes, and the last year at Miami threw all of 19 completions.
So, he FORGIVES AARON MURRAY wanting to relive his life through Aaron Murray.
I’m tired of all the lies of Mark Richt.
Everyday, another lie.
The purpose ?
To make his CALLING as cushy easy job.
Tells us he is the 4th best coach in football.
Tells he knows what the blazes he is doing.
Tells us AARON MURRAY IS GREAT.
Then, as a fanbase, we are supposed to say, well that’s our coach. That affects how we feel about it.
I’m over it personally.
Wake up get your nose out of his backside.
All he wants is to DONATE $ 3.5 million annual total compensation.
He doesn’t care about winning.
25 LOSSES THESE LAST SIX (6) YEARS NOW.
He called
ANOTHER 4-LOSS SEASON A GOOD SEASON THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY.

Matthew Stafford (who had Knowshon Moreno) – combined first two seasons:
26 TD’s – 23 INT
Aaron Murray (who had jack squat running the ball) – combined first two seasons
59 Td’s – 22 INT
Stafford’s Junior season – set UGA TD mark – 25 Td’s – 10 INT
Murray Sophmore season – broke that record – 35 TD’s – 14 INT
Drawing no conclusions – no one was more ticked at Murray than I during the bowl game – and we can all count the number of times he’s turned it over in big games – but the stats outshine the former #1 pick in the NFL draft through 2 seasons – so I don’t think he’s quite as awful as some of you are making him out to be.

Bitter 99: You are an idiot.
I don’t understand this constant Murray bashing, He is clearly a very talented QB and most analysts predict great things from him (he’s already breaking records and he’s a SOPHOMORE). He threw a few picks in a big game. Guess what? Kirk Cousins threw three picks in that same game. Stafford threw 2 tonight in playoff game. Murray is getting steadily better and will be a top-tier QB next year, and if we’re lucky, for one more after that. Give him a decent running game so we can be more balanced, and he’ll do great. Heisman material, you morons!
I have a new idea. If you don’t know anything about football and/or just want to run your face about a team and a program to which you have no loyalty, then get the heck off of this board and go find someone who wants to listen to your pathetic ignorant whining.

“Glancer” made a good point earlier when he asked “If Richt’s SO confident in Murray, why won’t he let Mason or Lemay comepte with him on the field against good teams?”
Letting the backups have some playing time in important situations is how all of the best coaches show their confidence in their starting QBs. Just think how often you see Green Bay sitting Aaron Rodgers or New Orleans benching Drew Brees so that the backup QBs can come in and compete against the good teams. I’m sure Mike Smith is planning to pull Matt Ryan out against the Giants so he can give John Parker Wilson some playing time in a playoff game and show his confidence in Ryan.
Wait a minute. That stuff never happens. That point was as dumb as all the other points “Glancer” made tonight. “Glancer’s” posts may lack quality, but he makes up for it with quantity.

How convenient to put up STATS about passing, when we are talking about college football and he has THROWN AWAY 11 GAMES BY HIMSELF OUT OF 27.
LOST 41 PERCENT OF HIS STARTS.
41 percent of his Starts as our QB the other QB on the other team had a far better day than he had, LOSING ALL 41 PERCENT OF HIS STARTS as a DIRECT RESULT. 22 interceptions in 27 games and 21 fumbles in 27 games and 11 losses in 27 games, and 56 sacks in 27 games, and averages 7 carries a game getting 1 yard a carry and you think you can run in here and tell us he doesn’t have anyone else he gives the ball to to run it after he destroys our running game by himself all 27 games ?

I didn’t say he would be an NFL starter – but guys shorter than him. With less arm and accuracy than him have made rosters. If jon parker wilson can land an NFL gig – Murray can. He’s too short and doesn’t have enough of a power arm to be impactful by any means… But I’d bet you 100 bucks right now that he makes an NFL roster at some point.

Murray gave me the impression that if he has another great statistical year in 2012 then he’ll leave early. Why else would he check his draft status for this year when he had no intentions of leaving? Was he just trying to “me too” it with the players that were seriously contemplating leaving this year?

I have seen, smelled, and read a lot of b.s. in my life but a couple of you cats… Attrition you are one of them… Are spewing feces everywhere… There are a couple of people, myself being one of them, on this blog that have actual ties to the program and have actually played the game and understand the overall landscape of what is going on. When you read their posts you can tell… The rest of you alliyeration, glancer, etc. It’s like your mouth is having more than a bowl movement… Your mouth is having a bowel revolution.. If you really paid attention to the program as a whole you would know that after the spring game and camp Lemay was pretty lost.. The year off really set him back… We just heard a positive comment about his growth a couple of weeks ago… He’s going nowhere… You would also know that masons issue is that he cant stretch the field.. Of course your stats will look great when you throw underneath crossing routes in garbage time. Trust, at this point in his development, if he were the starter, he would have tereshinski or cox numbers… Believe that… He isnt what murray is.. Sorry.. Ramsey could be better than them all with his natural gifts but, that is years from now… Oh and one last point. Oversigning hides the need for walkons at other schools… And thats not right. Oversigning is foul and im glad cmr doesnt subscribe to it.. And if you dont think its a big deal, then why is the sec putting rules in place to try and get a handle on it?… Trust, uga’s attrition is no worse and i would venture to say that it is probably slghtly less than other big time programs it just seems like more because in the state of ga there is the freedom of info which puts everything a dawg does on the front page. Whereas, in other places things can be swept under the carpet… You see that the best player uf had left before the season started because meyer wasnt there any longer to cover up his shortcomings… Just one example of many.. Here’s another that i know that saban does.. Arguably the best.dawg this year jarvis jones was a victim of oversigning. He was told by lame kiffin that his career was over just so he, kiff, could clear another scholly… Idiots on the board know what the f#*k you are talking about before posting. Posting super long messages with a lot of players names and baseless comments that are manipulated to prove your misguided agenda doesnt make you right or sound smart… It just wastes everyone else’s time.

Mark Richt is loyal to a fault,and the way he has handled the competition at qb is a prime example of why Georgia is not an elite program.
Murray is not a very good QB and his record against top college teams is awful.
He will never make it in the NFL,and Mason needs to transfer to another school to show
his awesome talents.
GEORGIA will not win a national title as long as Mark Richt is coach because he plays favorites and other top SEC PROGRAMS DO NOT!

This article is about a second stringer that has not prove3n on the field that he should be playing in games yet. We are in good shape with CB’s, and it is not a gigantic loss.
The rest of this crap some of you are posting on here about other players transferring is just that crap. Mason is the only one that has hinted that he may transfer, and that would elevate LeMay to backup, and that’s OK, as he has the arm and athleticism to be able to do the job. Rumors are usually relegated to women’s sewing bees, so perhaps you could go find one to blog on. You sure as heck don’t know anything about football.

The following comment is for UGA fanbase only :
Transfers are going to happen reguardless in a highly competitive college football situation. I do believe that It would be good for next year’s team to keep a player like Love for depth. Hutson Mason does need to play in more games because he is one snap away from being the starter.
The most pressing issue for next year is not only finding 3 starting offensive line starters but depth as well. Georgia also needs to find the best 2 starting running backs on the team and 1 backup and start dedicating themselves to the run. The run game is the missing key! Tight end is getting kind of thin with 2 left Aurthur Lynch and newcomer Jay Rome.
I want to end by saying I have not been a BOBO head hunter as much as others have been but even with all the talent that has been at Georgia in the past years……I think that bobo and richt need a change in philosophy or hire a more talented (creative) coordinater that has the ability to make in game adjustments that counter the other teams 2nd half adjustments.

Guess what Bubba from NYC ?
Aaron Murray is NO BLOODY GOOD.
He and I’ll take that bet will never take a snap in the NFL, not ever.
I have seen Aaron Murray for this is now his 4th year on our campus. My campus. The campus I graduated from.
I don’t care if NONE OF THEM, and trust me, you just listed every quarterback the 4 years he has been on this campus who you state are all NO BLOODY GOOD.
I don’t care if none of the quarterbacks at UGA are any bloody good. I want to see us put someone else out there some and LET ME DECIDE.
Not you.
Me.
I have seen more than enough of Aaron Bloody No Good Murray.
11 losses in 27 starts.
41 percent of his starts lost.
EXCUSE AFTER EXCUSE.
I didn’t play QB. Did you ?
What I know is that I know a QB when I see one.
Aaron Murray ain’t it.
He isn’t even an athlete.
Stretch the field. He cannot accurately hit the broadside of a barn. He cannot run worth a hoot. When he does throw, he under-throws his receivers and he over-throws his receivers. When he runs the ball he gain 1 yard and fumbles. He has 22 fumbles and 21 interceptions and 11 losses and 56 sacks and 1 yard a carry on 8 carries a game, his entire 27 games to-date.
Give someone else the ball and get him on the bloody field. You can play your precious everyone else stinks to high heaven all you want. Just not every play of every game.
Get that yet ?
Get someone else on the field for a few plays and let me decide.
I know that Aaron Murray is NO STINKING GOOD.
Why didn’t you say that Aaron Murray is GREAT ?
Because you know full well that he is NO BLOODY GOOD too – that’s why you didn’t say you are defending Aaron Murray by saying AARON MURRAY IS GREAT.

CMR- if he isnt willing to open his eyes about Bobo then what makes you think he’ll let competition reign for the QB position? When a QB has no fear of losing his position then what pushes him to better himself?
These are the same things that plagued Bobby Cox with the Braves.
He had more loyalty to his players than they did with him. With Murray its about stats and positioning himself with records and not win/losses.
Its the same with Bobo, its not about winning so much as it is that he gets experience and developes a sorry ineffective resume.
CMR has got to learn one of the most important things about coaching and that is that you make decisions based on not gut feelings, personal relationships and this also means whether or not they are christians and whether or not you went to college with them and/or are lifetime friends but based solely on their experience and resume.
Being Bias will end up killing ya in the long run, it will cause you to make bad decisions because its solely based on how you feel about that person rather than how good is he at coaching at that position.

Georgia Tech is a very highly ranked academic school that has a football team. Its alumni and fans have real lives and careers that don’t depend on the football team for their happiness.
Georgia, on the other hand, is basically a sell-your-soul-to-the-devil football factory that also gives diplomas – worthless as they are. They have sleazy coaches like Mark Richt who have no scruples or ethics, who recruit morons who barely got through high school, and collect huge paychecks, but still can’t win big games.

Comment about Aaron Murray being no good is true. Stats dont lie. If they did then we wouldnt have them to rate QB’s.
This is why we dont have good football Mgmt. at Georgia. Bobo refuses to let other QB’s compete with Murray and thats because Bobo is also QB Coach and he’s Aaron Murrays prodige. Bobo has done nothing for Georgia and atleast wants to get affirmation that he somehow is a great coach and was solely responsible for Aaron Murray’s success.
My sister could play QB at Georgia because most everything that is thrown is high percentage plays of 5-10 yards. My God where does that involve talent?
Lets be realistic here, Murray has as many fumbles as he has interceptions. Are some of you fans that much in denial? Murray has a pompas attitude that his butt dont stink because he knows that Bobo isnt gonna allow any competition, why do you think some of the QB’s transferred?
Oh the politics of college make me sick.
Georgia goes out seeking 5 Star Players but never seek 5 Star Coaches. How good would Georgia’s program be if all they had were 1 Star players?
Well their OC is 1 Star Coach. We have a 4 Star DC and maybe 3 Star Staff but that 1 Star OC is just killing the team and when that happens you have to look for a 4-5 Star OC.
Bobo feels the sameway as Murray does, they dont have to worry about losing their position because the guy above them have their backs.
This is insane coaching at its best, Spurrier used 2 OB’s and isnt afraid to test it, Alabama and LSU did the samething……………but nooooooooo not Georgia. His jewels have shriveled up the past few seasons and CMR isnt man enough to tell the Alumni and the board to shove it where the sun dont shine and let me run this program the way i need to or i’ll seek employment elsewhere.
If any of you are Alumni, get off your fat butts and quit trying to micro-manage the coaches……..this is exactly what happened to Alabama until they finally got a true coach that coaches from the bottom up.
Oh the Narcacists are abound at UGA and if they cant reflect and make adjustments to better Georgia then we will never get better.

Bobby Cox if you gave him 25 players, you better make sure his player # 25 is not some red-headed little nobody of a baseball player, because if you do, then that is the very player he will send out there in the worst possible moment of the most important games and put him in to win the game. Sure the players loved Bobby Cox – not so sure about his wife however. But the truth is that he was a horrible husband accused of beating up his wife and tearing her hair out while MAKING UP THE EXCUSE HE WAS DRUNK and a worse baseball coach, playing the # 25 player on his roster of the 25 players given him to work with all at the wrong time in the wrong game against the wrong pitchers.
He drove me crazy with his line-ups and playing his FAVORITE PLAYERS.
There is no way, given the talent he was provided that he could not field the best 9 and play them and do far better than he did with his managerial moves. A player number 10 through 25 would love to play for Bobby Cox. A player who wanted to win, would have nothing to do with him.
NYCDAWGFAN said this exact time last year that Mark Richt would be freed up this season to learn about coaching football studying it he said and Fran Tarkenton asked what the name of heaven has Mark Richt been doing all these years at UGA ? NYCDAWGFAN said that Fran cannot criticize current players and coaches but has to be behind the program. Now, one year later to the day, NYCDAWGFAN says all these players suck, and Mark Richt is GREAT BEYOND BELIEF, which is what he said last year this date exactly about how we would “win it all and see the panorama from the top 2011.”

UNLV,Toledo etc. Too many kids that can play end up on UGA Special teams their JR. Year. Kids have to do what is personally best for them not some DAWG FAN

Coronet Blue,
1. What percentage of Tech. football players graduate in 4 years?
2. How many Tech. football players have graduated with a degree in engineering?
3. Is this a blog about football, or the academics of tech. and UGA?
4. Why should UGA be concerned if you have a lock on the state population of nerds?
5. Why do you waste your time coming onto a Blog concerning a UGA player?
6. Even though, not a lot of DIV. 1 or any division players make it in the professional ranks, who makes more money, the brand new engineering degree tech. grad. or the NFL professional athlete? Keep in mind that your football players don’t leave your school as engineers, by the way, That should make point 2 easy for you to answer.
All I want is for someone else to get on the field and play some QB

I don’t care who it is. It cannot be any worse than it is, as stated previously by EVERY OTHER POSTER on this blog, not named NYCDAWGFAN.
I don’t even ask that Aaron Murray not be the Starter.
Just play the other guys at QB TOO by gracious.
I didn’t play QB. I defended against them. I think I know what is a QB, but I admit I was not one. I rode the bench – so what ?
I am a fan no better and no worse than any other fan.
I am totally unsatisfied with 25 losses the last Six (6) Seasons.
And, I am especially unsatisfied with the way we don’t prepare back-up Quarterbacks around here,
EVER.
And, not just because I rode the bench.
I want to see the other players play. I have seen Aaron Murray play.
I have also watched 27 games he started and have seen him lose 11.
41 percent losses.
He cannot for the life of him win a game against a team who finishes in the top 25.
Not once.
Twice however he did lose to teams who did not finish top 25.
And, 0-9 vs the teams who did end up top 25.
It bears repeating that if ALL THESE OTHER QUARTERBACKS at UGA the entire time Aaron Murray has been here – starting his 4 year now on our campus – all suck, I don’t care.
So, does he.
“I guess there really hasn’t been a marquee win,” Aaron Murray admitted.

I beat two 8-5 teams out of 27 games to-date who neither one are ranked in the top 25 of ANY poll.
I tweeted to the international twitter account of mine that I was going down to the Dome and kick some _ _ _ .

You cant come on here and tell others to not criticize Georgia because they label you a Hater and not a Backer of Georgia. This is the problem with Georgia. They dont coach it enough. You think Bear Bryant said ” oh hey you did great” after missing the winning FG”?
Would Woody Hayes, Jackie Sherrell, Bo Schembeckler, Spurrier, Jimmy Johnson? You kidding me?
Those guys were men and also real coaches. We worry too dang much about being politically correct that we think that saying what the truth is, hurts the developement of kids.
It does the opposite, trust me……….. it makes them try harder to make you proud of them as young men. If you believe this isnt true then none of you have never served and been thru boot camps.
The 1st. thing you ever do with your own children is that they RESPECT you then LOVE will come from that but if you dont respect a person then you cant love and admire them.
Coaching is a business and not a congregation in a church, 2 totally different things. If you watch Grantham then you’d see what i’m talking about because man he jumps on those players if they do wrong.
What does Mark Richt do…………….. takes his hands and brushes back his hair in his casanova sunglasses.
Quit giving out high fives when a player makes mistakes, when i was growing up the coach would grab my face mask and look straight into my eyes and jump down my neck, then i’d get those looks from the other players indicating how bad i was for doing that.
Which in turn made me mad and wanna do better and avoid embarrasment. Now these kids have to seek therapy because a coach yells at them.
This is what we’re developing these days kids without coaches. Constantly learning and getting better all the time because they dont have to compete because mommy and daddy are alumni’s with money or have pampered they babies since childhood to treat them kindly or they’ll go somewhere else.

Hutson Mason some. Would not have cost us a BIT had we done that whether your younger brother went to Mark Richt camp one summer or whether or not 2 people at your high school at some points at least were Georgia Bulldogs.
Had BETTER PLAY
Christian LeMay some 2012.
Oh, and the best quote all of 2012 is Mark Richt’s again.
“WE HAD A GOOD YEAR 2011.”

Idiots on here who say Mason is better than Murray……idiots. What a joke, you know NOTHING. There is a reason why Murray was Top 3 in the nation and the co-MVP at the Elite 11 QB Camp with Matt Barkley. He is a soph who hasn’t had a running game in two years, a mediocre offensive line and has the need to try and make too many plays but he is going to break ever record at GA. It is a team sport. He needs a better OC who will let him throw the ball with 3:00 left in the game to put it away. If two receivers catch balls they catch every day, he has 200 yds + and 3TDs in the first half against LSU. Does he make mistakes, every QB does. But use some common sense. You are idiots.

Stop with the football talk……..I’m a UGA alumnus and I love the football,but it is over for this year.Last night we had only 7700 fans in the Steg for the SEC opener. I know why BB recruits leave our state.All we can talk about is the play calling in the bowl game and a second string CB transferring? We need to pack the Steg FIRST then the recruits will come. Not the other way around.I live 200 miles from Athens and I will make two BB games. Fox is a good coach and KCP is the real deal,but they need some help. BTW…our baseball team is ranked #18 preseason. They will be BACK this year. As dawgs we need to get behind all our teams.

The SEC is going through a period of unrivaled dominance in college football history and UGA is MISSING IT ALL. UGA is third in the SEC for all-time wins, 3rd for bowl appearances, 3rd for bowl wins, and is annually in the top 3 in the nation for athletic association profits. The state of Georgia is annually in the top 4 in the nation for D1 players signed and currently is third in players playing in the NFL. UGA has the nations 7th largest stadium and annually is in the top 10 for attendance. UGA has ranked in the top 10 in recruiting for the past ten years. YET UGA’s record the past 6 years is 54-25 with no SEC championships and ONE top ten ranking. If that isn’t underachieving I don’t know what is. It is time to FIRE MARK RICHT and get a coach that can have UGA playing closer to its potential.

Fox is an excellent coach. He gets the most out of his talent. His problem so far is he can’t recruit. KCP is the only true SEC caliber player on the team. The rest are mid-major caliber at best. I don’t know how much you can blame Fox for the recruiting, because UGA is a very hard place to recruit to, but if he wants to turn it around he is going to have to bring in more talent.

Re: Phil, I take umbrage to your pathetic comment that, “You bench riders are pathetic… Worthless and lazy, couldn’t play a down for anything….”
Especially on NCAA FBS teams, about 100 or or so players were exceptional enough to merit either a scholarship or walk-on status. Excluding Special Teams, eventually there will be 22 starters. While some may be, not starting does not mean that the vast majority of the others are worthless or lazy. It simply means that someone else was better. I worked my butt off to the best of my ability, but was beaten out by better talent. I could have gone elsewhere and no doubt started, but I cast my lot with my team and there I stayed and got my degree from a fine university. Frankly, I am proud of my effeorts to be the best I could be and I am proud of all of my team mates and of those of my competitor schools, too. Either you were a megalomaniac super athlete with no regard for your team mates or you never competed in a sport (which I suspect to be the case) or you would know better.

Why can’t you Kool-Aiders acknowledge it: MURRAY IS A HEAD CASE. I’ve never seen a human being so in love with himself (Richt runs a close 2nd). The kid CRAVES ATTENTION, be it GOOD or BAD! As long as he’s at the center of it. A PROBLEM looming just as large as MURRAY is UGA and MCGARITY putting their faith in a Head Coach who on 2nd and 7 from your opponents 22 yard line, orders “Hair Product” to lose the 3 yards back, and on 3rd down attempts a 42 yard field goal by a kicker who is less than 50% from the 40 and beyond.He missed. Following Georgia football has a NIGHTMARISH QUALITY about it with Richt as your Head Coach, doesn’t it? LIKE FREDDIE KRUEGER, you never know when he’s going to strike again, just that he will. I honestly don’t see haow y’all stand it.

The bigger the game the more turnovers you will see from Murray. Forget the problems with the offensive line. If you can’t protect the football then you are doomed to mediocrity. Murray will never be benched. When there are guaranteed positions that leads to little motivation for anyone to improve. Don’t blame Hutson – if I would in his situation with no chance to play I would be long gone.

Aaron Murray holding the ball too long with 56 sacks 27 games ?
Aaron Murray running around like a CHICKEN with head cut-off?
NFL where half the starters end up ?
NFL where Aaron Murray will never take a snap ?
(2) Who makes the Running Game look bad ?
Aaron Murray who steals 7 carries a game from the RBs ?
Aaron Murray who average 1 yard a carry as college QB?
Aaron Murray who has 22 fumbles in 27 games trying to run?
If you handed anyone else the ball behind the big OL we have
they would have 5 yards per carry for 35 yards a game avg
instead of Aaron Murray’s 1 yard for 7 carries EVERY GAME.
(3) Who makes the Offense stink to high heaven ?
The head coach who promoted QBs coach to OC no experience?
The OC whom we stole from JAX St who was their QB coach ?
The Field General on the field who has the last audible or not
at the line of scrimmage checking out of plays called for not his
number and checking off into plays that are his number
trying to do too much then throwing himself on the turf un-hit?
(4) Who said Hutson Mason is a Better QB than AM ?
No one.

Do you really want to risk it Mike? They’ll take you down a road you don’t necessarily want to go. Give Bama a look. We play big boy football. Beat Mich. St. 49 to 7 when we played them.

Reason one was to enjoy the game and support the team. Reason two was I would feel cheated to not take advantage of the student activity fee I paid every quarter.

Ya’ll can give Glancer some grief but I do agree with him on one thing: Richt does not let the QB’s compete. Some of you will disagree, but Shockley had a better arm than David Greene. Greene knew the offensive plays but go back and look at the film: when he got killed in the LSU Game — he was sacked several times — he very seldom threw deep passes after that beating. Most of his passes were 8-10 yard passes to the sideline. Shockley was much more better at throwing the deep passes as well as passes in the 15-20 yard range. I like David Greene but he was not much of a threat passing after the LSU beatdown yet Richt stuck with him. Yeah, I know he won a lot of games but he was not the same the last year he was at UGA — he played scared and tentative. I still think Mettenberger was a better QB than Murray.

Yes, young high school kids,wanna cut your career short in football go to UGA. They will make it happen. Don’t worry about injuries,you have a pansy schedule for the most part .You can dope it up,if you are a starter you can still play in the game.Should you get a hangnail in a ballgame ,just take your self out of the game,not a problem!. This is another side benefit of playing for a dream team.

Douglas–Mettenberger may or may not turn out to be a good QB. To bad he could not stay sober, keep his hands off of a young lady who did not want them there, and not lie to police officers after being arrested, and then lying to coaches about what happened.
Coaches play the ballplayer that gives them the best chance to win. Anyone that has ever plays to win knows that coaches have to win. Believe CMR record is 106-38, best winning % of any coach in SEC. He is signign a 3 year extension within next couple weeks as is CTG. Either accept and quit bitching or find some other team to whine about.
Good luck to Jordan Love, can’t blame the young man looking at 5 CB’s ahead of him on depth chart, can probably start at a smaller school.

So where did all of those Tech fans suddenly appear from the last time Tech beat Georgia? It was the year that the school had rings made to celebrate the win.Remember? You also failed to mention that Tech football has the lowest graduation rate in the ACC and believe it or not its lower than Georgia’s.And being the smart person that you are I’m sure you read Forbes right? Did you see that Georgia football is ranked in the top ten most valuable programs in the nation? But I’m sure Tech fans are too busy to care about such things right? The real truth is that you and all other Tech fans would love for your program to be were UGA is.And only a liar or an idiot would disagree.Stop being envious and make making looser excuses.Too busy to be concerned about your football team but you have time to post mindless comments on a blog.Give us all a break and just go away.

NYCDAWGFAN; I go to practices..Mason can stretch the field. He has a cannon for an arm..He possesses the talent for all the throws to be made, period…He has the automatic ability to scan all the receiver options and pick the open man without hesitation…His practice passing makes Marlon Brown look so good; he options around and actually finds our 6 foot 5 wide receiver (usually wide open) and throws it to him..Marlon Brown catches the football like it’s a junior size football (with his hands). As you know, Murray (Bobo) do not even consider Marlon Brown in the game planning. Our third down passing play is to try to hit the first option receiver 40 yards down the field.
In practices, Mason actually looks sharper than Murray.

Truthfully I dont expect anything from Tech football players and dont care about the graduation rate because I’m not a fan.I think that every student athelete regardless of the institution that wants to graduate does so and the schools get too much of the blame when they choose not to.I just get tired of Tech fans putting down what they cant overcome on the field.Burning down the house next door doesnt makes yours look any better.

In general, players do not leave. If they are getting a fair shake on a level playing field.
There is a strong culture of favoritism and cronyism at UGA under Richt and especially with Bobo.
When the culture or the perception of it is not based on merit, this is when players quit and transfer.
This is why UGA has the lowest number of scholarship players in the SEC for the past few years.
Of course, the Richt cheerleaders will rationalize this with various lame excuses as usual…

It’s sad that UGA alumni and fans have only their football team to take pride in. It’s even sadder that this pride depends on the performance of illiterate dummies who don’t even come close to meeting minimum academic requirements. 94% of UGA football players are what UGA calls “special admits,” which is just a euphemism for admitting bozos who can barely read.
This sorry practice not only cheapens all UGA degrees (which are pretty worthless to begin with), but embarrasses the State of Georgia and its citizens. And Mark Richt is the one behind the atrocities at UGA.
So enjoy your victories, and be kind to your former players when you see them working menial jobs in custodial or sanitation services. Or pushing a shopping cart around, looking for a warm place to sleep at night. That’s your UGA reality.

It’s not good to not be a starter at Georgia. First of all they have a way of anointing some players and despite their performance, continue to be crazy loyal to them. Secondly, their fear-based conservative play when they get a lead, limits the opportunity to play backup players. Not only do they take the air out of the ball, they leave in the players they think will not make mistakes. They fail to see that a big lead is an opportunity to practice your bench players in game conditions. It’s a chance to build depth and keep everyone happy.

There goes a special teamer, maybe the best we had. Best wished towards Love.
Murray is not the answer, not in this finesse scheme being called by an OC who thinks this is a physical team. BEAT by a FREAKIN Big 10 team! No excuses, beat twice by a Big 12 school, and UCF. OLine is SOFT, D not hardened to play 4 qtrs bc they practice against a standup and shove offense. NO HITTING in the trenches by that group. AM has his moments, but as we have all seen in spring games, he is not the best man, just the guy who was highly recruited and CMR owes for choosing UGA. In a different scheme he may be great, in this one he great one play then … doesn’t matter. CMR, Bobo, Oline ( 3 coaches have coached this thing during its’ decay began), and an iffy qb who simply does not have the ice in his veins as is needed, nor the mental makeup to overcome this as did DG (not that he should have been starting over DJ – no arm, and it costs us a few games).

As we have seen, Richt never learns. His teams are soft and always will be. The only OL he had that could run block was 2002 and they learned how to block from Donnan’s staff. Richt gives lip service to scrimmaging more and becoming tougher, but he’s just making a PR statement to get the fans off of his back. He really doesn’t believe in it. Even now. With the contract extension, he will feel comfortable and UGA will be back to practicing “Thud.”

If you live in Athens, it’s not hard to watch outdoor practices in the spring, late summer and into the season. In the spring and summer, all the QBs (and others) get a lot of looks. The evaluation by the coaches are puzzling sometimes. Anyone who know’s football who watches Marlon Brown practice would certainly believe he would be a primary target in games.But Dog fans know he is barely included at all in games. Watch what he does in the pros in a couple of years.

I believe I stated that I do go to practices; lots of them. Oh, it is very clear to anyone who watches and knows anything about football that Mason, without hesitations, moves the football team down the field with effortless precision,
And Murray’s play against Boise ST., SC, LSU and Mich ST. is convincing enough that someone else should get a shot to compete in the games.
Oh, I believe you could go further than that.

slobodan,
Enjoy your posts, sir.
I think you could say that it goes a lot further than Aaron Murray’s play against Boise State, South Carolina this season, LSU and Michigan State has brought the Bulldog Nation to the point today that we believe as a Group, that someone else should get a shot to compete in the games.
I believe that someone else, anyone else, must be brought in every game and given some snaps. It is the conservative decision to do so.
South Carolina in 2010 also stands out in my mind as an especially poor game for Aaron Murray. The Arkansas game last season stands out. The Colorado, Florida and UCF games all stand out as well as games where a Head Football Coach who was interested in winning at a clip higher than Mark Richt has demonstrated these last entire Six (6) Seasons of running off football scholarship recruits, would then determine that there has to be competition at the QB position culminating in other QBs put out there on the field immediately. Just imagine losing 41 percent of your Starts, having 56 sacks, 1 yards per carry for 7 carries a game, 22 Interceptions and 21 sacks and saying this Field General is going to cost me my OC and maybe my own job. He has demonstrated nothing but immature behavior on and off the field, and has clearly demonstrated he does NOT get over his Heebie-Jeebies – if anything they get worse being sent right back out into the fire.

Well, I guess there is another scholarship to use to offer a “5 star prospect”. I can’t watch this bunch recruit any more. If you aren’t from the Metro area or have 5 stars by your name from some recruiting service, you have no chance to play at UGA. If David Pollack was a senior this year, he wouldn’t even be recruited at UGA.
UGA never offered Demarius Thomas at West Laurens because he was too slow to play receiver and not big enough to play tight end. (I heard this from a UGA coach’s mouth) Ask the Steelers how slow he is.
Oh, I believe you could go further than that.

I’m Not clear on the “QB” position at Uga. I think we have to consider the kid from Fla. Who all the press said he is the real deal. I think he will get a shot. LeMay and Mason I don’t have a clue where they line up with the “QB” position. Then next year lest throw in the kid from St. Mary’s who they say is the real deal. It looks like it will be intresting at UGA “QB” position. Remember there is only one football and at least 4 “QB” not counting Murrary. This decision could make are break a coach’s job at UGA..

The story doesn’t say why Love is transferring and I don’t trust the posters here to tell the truth if they knew it. Soemtimes kids transfer for playing time and sometimes its for a different reason, either academic or personnal.
Love will probably play football on scholarship wherever he goes so it shouldn’t hurt him much financially. Also, he doesn’t sound bitter in his comments so it sounds like his leaving is more about what he wants rather than how Georgia treated him.
Good luck Mr. Love, wherever you end up and whatever your choices for a career.

A Rational logical poster. Thank you sir. It is 99% likely due to the fact that the redshirt DBs will jump him on the depth chart and that was most liekly expressed to him and the fact that we have a shot at a couple DBs late in recruiting. He would most liekly have only seen time at STs. So good for him, go get him some playing time at a smaller school where he can compete for a starting job.
Also now allows us to sign 26 instead of 25.
For ppl posting about Bama and schollies. They only have 16 from seniors leaving plus whatever juniors go early and whatever players Satan CUTS, MEDICAL REDSHIRTS, or RUNS OFF THE TEAM. He is aiming at 30 so there will likely be some grey shirts as well.

RxDawg : Thanks Bro. You actually get it.!!!
To the anonymous idiot to scared to use one name: First, use one name instead of different sentences so I can call you out like a man. There’s no hiding here punk. You obviously can’t read and take bits and pieces to fuel your moronic ramblings. First, I am not “from” New York, I am from GA… Burke County to be exact (Go Bears). Where are you from? You sound more than British with your “Bloody” ramblings. Second, “Joe Cox is no bloody good, that you know that Hutson Mason is no bloody good, that you know that Joe Tereshinski III is no bloody good, that you know that Faton Bauta is no bloody good, that you know that Christian LeMay is no bloody good.”
At what point in any posts on the AJC have I ever even mentioned young Tebow (Mr. Bauta)? Go back and read what I said genius. I did not criticize Mr. Lemay, I said that he “is going nowhere” meaning he is not transferring. I didn’t criticize Joe T, Joe Cox, or Mason, I said that his (Mason’s) stats would be where their stats are if he were the starter which is nowhere near the pace that Murray is on… Idiot, that’s not criticizing, those are numbers. I’m sorry I’m not speaking the high court English language that you are used to and I’m sorry that you can’t understand simple QB stats because we aren’t using the metric system. Get over it chief. You can’t beat me. If you wanna go man to man I accept the challenge. Set up a quiz bowl on the NCAA and let’s see who wins… Or, better yet, let’s really see who will, as Crowell said in an interview this year, “drop their nuts” and let’s strap it up and run the Oklahoma drill… I love how you avoided my points on over-signing and such.. Real smooth. I also like how you try to twist things when the context isn’t known to everyone… No worries, I don’t mind telling the whole story (in a nut shell)… I did go off on Tark… and I would do it again. At a time when our program was hurting and needing recruits, Tark comes out and blasts Richt… Like that was something that we really needed… Now look at the transverse here.. Tark, A DGD and legend that I love bashes our head coach for having a couple of subpar years. Whereas, Almost every Ohio State and Penn State Alum rallied behind their coaches when they were parts of heinous acts… See what I’m saying folks? I’m a positive Dawg and I defend my Dawgs when needed against anyone.. even if it’s a legend that should be helping and not hurting. Got that bro? Also, at this time last year, and others here that were around will agree that this is true, there was a poster on this board making heinous posts about the players and staff etc. under other posters names. I was not the only person affected by this. In fact I personally emailed the moderator about this. You fail to mention that. I haven’t been on here saying that anyone sucks. You wanna quote me bro, quote the whole truth not just some garbage to push your pooh on everyone’s plates. Like I said, talk is cheap. I challenge you in anyway that you want. As T.I. used to say, “Let’s be 21 about this, and bring it to the square”.. Don’t get bit by the Dawg in me… And yeah, I will take my word over yours any day.. Paid memberships to multiple Dawg sites where Beat writers post multiple times daily, two high school alums that play (ed) for the Dawgs, a lil bro that attends Mark Richt camp annually, a best friend who was working in the UGA Athletic dept as a grad student (he also taught a few Dawgs as a T.A. that are now in the NFL), and multiple “paid” alumni here in the NYC area that have a very close ear to the program… Need I say more? Don’t write checks.

I am amazed by how stupid the comments on here are. This is not a sky is falling scenario. This is a good who has no real shot at playing time and is going to end up at a MAC or 1AA program.
Best of luck to him, but this does not even remotely signal anything negative for the program. And the guy saying LeMay is about to transfer: are you on drugs or just stupid?

Augusta Dawg: You realize that one of the craziest things you could ever do is think that some anonymous drivel on a UGA blog is “inside information”, right?

This is what we get when our coach refuses to hold QB accountable- we will be stuck with Murray throwing away big games ….at UGA it’s always something….Murray tosses the UF game away…”I have faith in him- he will be a great QB”…..murray fumbles away the SC game…”I have faith in him-he will be a great QB”….Murray fumbles and changes whole complection of LSU game….”I have faith in him- he will be a great QB”……murray tosses away the Outback Bowl….I have faith in him- he will be a great QB……..Murray’s record against ANY team with 9 or more wins is NONE…..”I have faith in him- he will be a great QB”……….
WELL COACH RICHT…..MOST OF THE FAN BASE HAS GIVEN UP ON HIM…

That’s real cute. Now if Paul Johnson could “engineer” a victory against us dummies you may be getting somewhere.. And really, your NFL player “fact” is a gross error and you know it. The Nerds don’t have near as many pro players as the dawgs or as many super bowl MVP’s.. Fact!! Fact, Champ Bailey has been the best player on that squad for years. Your boy has one game and you wanna talk. Get over it nerds. You can’t beat the dawgs. Now get off our board.

Comments like the one Basstringerfish left just goes to show how ppl think they know what they r talking about and truly don’t know a damn thing. smh. Love was the #1 recruit out of the state of maryland and for a good reason. He had scholarships to LSU, PENN ST, Uni of Fla, Notre Dame, Uni Maryland, VTech and the list goes on. And the most productive cornerback the 1st 3 games of the season over Boykins and leading in stats before they decide to bench him. Clearly the player who energized the defense and 2ndary against Boise St and USC this year. He is a good size corner at 6′1 187 and could easily play safety.UGA obviously is bias keeping players from GA on the field and have their favorites. Where ever Love goes will be a ENORMOUS pick up for that institution. I guarantee that you haven’t seen the last of Love. No doubt he will be playing on Sundays. This just goes to show how true talent continues to fly under the radar. Bigger loss to UGA than you all think. Thank God Rambo and Williams decided to stay. Huge loss for UGA
