    Jerry Springer classic. Kid would have been a starter on a SEC or Natty contender, but has to transfer to a crappy team, less competition, less media coverage.....because of what? Parents that want a quick buck,,,,,or a long term plan to get the kid in a school they wanted him to attend to start with....Well, now the parents can watch both kids in same stadium and no dual travel, and don't have to buy red shirts......This episode will be what he is remembered for...forever.... Not the SUGAR BOWL start. There is nothing that irritates GA fans more than traitors (Josh H. Clemmons, Trey Matthews, Justin Fields, Nick Marshall, B. cox, etc),,,,,NOW Cade Mays........Karma will come,,,,,and will be loud and clear......Best of luck(my a--),,,,,,See ya at the checkerboard big boy

    It will be interesting when Mays is announced November 14th at Sanford.

    With Mays, UT should be able to beat the likes of Mizzou, Vandy, and KY and maybe a win over UF. They will lose to the likes of Bama, and UGA . Nothing has changed! It's not a big deal!

    Rocky Flop ohhh Rocky Flop,,# 6 in the SEC( GA,Fl, ALA, AUB, LSU, ) maybe losses to (TA&M, KTY, VAN, SC, Miss, MISS ST, MOU)

    We can always give a finger at the next meeting,,,,,,,,GO DAWGS!!!!

  • I was worried that the lawsuit was filed in Knoxville and that the judge would be a former UT football player, but no, filed in Clarke County, Georgia. Any Georgia-licensed lawyers out there? Can’t the defendants file a motion for summary judgment based on sovereign immunity?

    It’s just football. People should be able to play where they want, with some sense of good order and discipline. I’m thankful for the time he gave UGA and wish him the best at UT. The only positive I have to say about Tom Mars is that he is doing a good job at what he does. You can’t deny he’s very effective, although maybe void of ethics. But that’s why people hire him. I’m sure he’ll be laughing all the way to the bank with 50% of the decision.

    Oh no, another brick in our "great wall" is gone?

    Personally, I'm thriiled. He was useless at blocking and was responsible for more sacks than the rest of the line.. And he was versatile which means he was useless in more than one position. So, when we go against tennessee we can count on a few sacks and single digit rushing yards.

    This was a good move all the way around. He's going to tennessee, where his dad tells him he'll be number 1. Or maybe number 1/2.

    Tom Mars had the story leaked so he can use it as a tactic to get Cade Mays eligible right away. Think about it. He will simply say that it became uncomfortable for Cade to remain at UGA because of the the pending lawsuit. Just think about it and look at the time table of the breaking story. You have to hand to him. It's a pretty clever.

    Searching through the internet for details of Kevin Mays' accident, I found that Kevin Mays required substantial medical care for his hand when he returned to Knoxville. The law suit which I found on the internet, identified that medical cost as $17,000. Did UGA offer to pay for his treatment after he returned to Knoxville? The point of my question is: Did UGA realize there was a major issue with the Mays family? Did this issue become nuclear because UGA failed to seek a settlement with Kevin Mays? Let me be clear, I am a UGA graduate and fan, and I as many UGA fans initially saw this law suit/transfer issue as being orchestrated by the Mays family to allow Cade to play immediately at UT. The following are facts that create doubts in my mind as to what really led to this disaster. First, the law suit was filed before Sam Pitman accepted the Arkansas job. So the timing of the suit does not support Cade's request to transfer and play immediately. Second, Cade did not publicly express any dissatisfaction with his role on the team. In fact he mentioned that he was trying to lead the remaining offense lineman. Third, attorney Tom Mars in a blistering press release blamed UGA for continuing to take the low in this matter with the Mays family. When first reading the Mars comments, I focused on the word "continuing" which implied that there was more involved than UGA supposedly releasing information about the law suit. That is the reason my question. What had happened previously between UGA and the Mays family?

    @chilidawg1 you ask sound and reasonable questions to which I don't have the answers. Like you, I'm going to save my vitriol for Cade Mays and his family. As I said about Justin Fields when he transferred and so many voiced anger at him, my position was, he's no longer a Georgia Bulldog, he doesn't matter. I feel much the same way about Cade Mays except that he will be going to an SEC division rival. But in the long run, Georgia will survive. I do have a sneaking suspicion this isn't what Cade wanted, but he's doing it for his dad and his brother. If that floats your boat, then so be it.

    I'm on to figuring out if we can keep Broderick Jones committed and get him signed on Feb. 5 (I don't believe he's going to go anywhere else, but I don't like the fact that he's taking a look around, either). And then we need to get a good transfer QB in here and get him working with our new receivers pronto. If that's the kid out of Wake Forest, great. If it's someone else, great. But I think we do need someone because despite all the great things we HEAR about Carson Beck, I'm a little nervous about him just walking in and being ready to go Game 1. Same for Stetson Bennett and D'Wan Mathis, although I'm guessing that if we pull in a transfer, either Bennett or Mathis (maybe both) will enter the transfer portal. Oh well, ain't college football fun these days? Go Dawgs!

    Hey, by playing for the LOL's, at least his parents will never have to worry about their kids' football games messing up their new years day plans.

    Too much comp for Cade in Athens. Couldn't break through as a starter. More competition coming. Best to run back up to Knoxville.
