5 tackles this year on special teams/ defense. Langley got moved back to DB. Guy was a damn good dawg though he had to go to prep school for a year due to grades and really worked hard to be at UGA

Processed or actually a medical issue like too many concussions?

Very little if any...Not much on Saturdays just another blow to secondary depth. Langley is moving back over to DB...
Kid bled red & black, loved UGA & playing here. He'll always be a DGD...

I was already to make a Mark Richt has lost control or #firemikebobo joke but this sucks for him.

Is this the equivalent of being given a medical redshirt? Can he play elsewhere?

Ebola case #2?

For reals though, feel for the kid and hope he can make the most of a great UGA degree

That sucks. Maybe UGA will still honor his scholarship. Hate to see someone doing the right things get punished.

Cool.

Glad he can take advantage of a bad situation. Future GA maybe?

The 1st injury scholarship UGA doesn't honor will be their 1st.

Maybe you can cite a medical scholly that we didn't honor? If not feel free to STFU...

I hope he gets a good education, that will serve him better for his future than football.
