'Shocking' Report: Georgia quarterback Jamie Newman to opt out for NFL draft

Newman has been competing with Southern Cal transfer JT Daniels, redshirt freshman D’Wan Mathis and freshman Carson Beck for the Georgia starting job. Anthony

Unreal.
This is like the most Georgia thing ever.
OMG.....wow, what a wasted scholarship. I wish him well, but this is bizarre.
Best of luck in your future young man..GoDAWGS!
I'm not worried. I thought all along that Newman's ability was over-hyped. Plus, Newman was only going to be around for one season. The worst part is losing his dual threat ability, since none of the other potential QBs really are a true dual threat.
Glad it happened now instead of September 20th. I'm happy this gives Bennett, Beck, and Mathis a better chance to compete against Daniels - whom I DO think will be limited on his mobility due to still working on fully recovering from the ACL injury. And, as we all should know, it's an injury than can pretty easily happen again (think our recent stud loss at WR).
Big mistake. He needs to prove himself for the draft. I think this hurts him tremendously and if I were an NFL team I would pass on him for several rounds. Next man up, we have some really good QBs behind him.
Hey, its his life and his choice. Best of luck to the young man. A dawg will emerge from the pack.
Wow. Did not see this coming. Like his old coach intimated, I wonder what changed for him. Maybe he was always leaning that way? If so, I wonder if the coaches knew. Maybe Daniels is the real deal and was performing better in practice? Even still, with him coming off a knee injury, there would have to have been a large gap in the quality of their performances for that to explain it, and that doesn't seem all too likely. So many questions.
What a ridiculous take on the young man’s decision. Shame on you for saying that. Our fan base is better than this.
This is total B.S. I don't know what is going on but his #GodsPlan is a crock. Basically he got to train, lift and learn for the last 6 months all on UGA's nickle and now he is going to bolt 3 weeks before the start of the season??? Tells me that either he wasn't as good as we thought or else he has some serious character flaws.
