This is a shame and he will be missed but to be honest I’m not that surprised by it. A lot of talent but seems it seemed he needed to mature more
Get your head in the program or get your A$$ out. All for getting and retaining talent but not at the expense of TEAM. I am very sad to see this to this young man.
I wonder if he got caught with weed again? As talented as he is, it's not like I think we're losing a major piece of the puzzle. He was battling for 2nd or 3rd string, somewhat of a surprise since he was first in line last year. But hey, every year is different. Go Dawgs!
Bummer.
Most players seem to adapt to the team first philosophy. I don’t know for sure if Cox did or did not subscribe to that but getting caught with marijuana knowing the UGA policy on that is somewhat telling. I wish the young man good luck! Go Dawgs!
I hope the best for him. It takes some guys more time than others to mature. Hopefully that's all this is about.
So if the NCAA grants Cox the transfer waiver after being caught with dope, but Luke Ford still hasn't been approved so that he can be closer to his ill grandfather, what does that say about the NCAA???
Not a good look of fairness by any means.
Loran, the NCAA did rule from what I read. Ford must sit out this season, he lost his appeal.
Best of luck Mr Cox..GoDAWGS!
Cox showed awesome potential however he never held a solid corner in run defense he constantly gave away the edge looking for big plays
Adam Anderson/ Robert Beal will leave us never noticing Cox missing that don't even include Grant and the JC transfer or Nolan Smith
Best wishes to him, he has awesome potential, but hasn't "gotten there" yet. I hope he finds a good landing spot, and grows into the player he could be.
