Hutson Mason said that he has been medically disqualified due to concussions.

Hope he is able to lead a healthy, successful life from here on out


Freshman Detric Bing-Dukes (recruited at ILB) and walk-on Senior Taylor Maxey are our full time FBs now that Quayvon Hicks is at H-back.

Slightly OT but is the Paul Oliver program up and running?

Yep started up this Summer and has been quite successful so far connecting guys across the years. They're expanding it now from Richt-era guys to include all football lettermen which opens up a lot of doors for the younger guys trying to cope with leaving football behind. I know they're doing some things this Fall as far as viewing parties go and they're working on starting up some more specified programs that cater to certain industries and fields that guys need help networking through or advisement on.

I hate that for the kid.

Injuries are no way to end your career in football.

I thought Quayvon Hicks was the starting FB? Y'all were fapping hard over him last offseason

WAit, Hutson Mason isn't going to be the starting QB for UGA?

Jacob park or Brice Ramsey

He's being trained at H-back right now. Quayvon is a bit of an enigma. The dude destroys people but also misses his assignment fairly regularly.

Hicks moved to H-Back. He has all the physical tools you want for a FB but struggled picking up the right blocks consistently.

Hate it for him. He was a walk on at linebacker and realized his best chance at playing was at full back.

It's a battle for #2 b/w Brice and Faton Bauta. Bauta is older and more mobile/physical, Brice is more a traditional pocket passer with a better arm.

Does "concussions" mean "catching a charge" in Athens?

Whoever played fullback for y'all last year was a fricking beast. He was that big scary looking dude who looked like he played 90's ball if you know what I mean.

He's at H-Back now and apparently doing really well.
