Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter described by teammates as ‘joking and loving person’
ATHENS — Georgia defensive tackle Zion Logue said many of the Bulldogs laughed when hearing Jalen Carter’s character questioned by an ESPN draft analyst last week.

Just love the way his teammates have taken up for him!
Shows that his character and leadership is something that is displayed on the field and his teammates have noticed!
Go Dawgs!
Well said !! And fully agree !! Todd McDufus was just trying to boost his own media personality stock at someone else’s expense. In this case Jalen Carter, a beloved Dawg by his teammates, coaches, and Dawg Nation !! Go Dawgs !! Go Big Jalen !! We Believe in You !!

Good article Mike. Way to punch back. Use their own words and the "truth" against em and they'll come tumbling down.
What McShay said seemed libelous and negligent. Intended to strike a nerve. I'm just not sure why. Who has the most to gain or lose, from Carter dropping a few spots in the draft.
Makes me wonder about the Nakobe Dean phantom injury story that appeared right before the draft. If not for Smart stepping in on his behalf...well, you get the picture.
Anyway, I like to see stories like this. Keep em coming. Merry Christmas.
@MikeGriffith
BTW...In these times of NIL, where a player has the ability to make money on his, "Name...Image...Likeness", it seems wreckless for any person...especially one with McShay's bully-pulpit & apparent reach, to attack a player's Name & Image with nothing to back it up. That could've cost Carter leverage on an endorsement contract...or worse.
There should be a line you don't cross. If there was, McShay is way over the line. I'd sue the crap out of ESPN & Todd McShay, for damages. Shouldn't be that hard to prove. Lol...ESPN has a track record.
I wonder if McShay might be doing some NFL teams bidding so to speak. Maybe he's trying to help a team who has a No.5 -8 pick?
Very strange how someone who's supposed to know what they're talking about would get it so wrong.
What is interesting is the way the talking heads are all saying "I don't doubt he heard it from somebody". Why do they think that. Somebody made this up. Why not occam's razor the thing and just suggest that mcshay did it? For whatever reason...
It doesn't matter, what he heard or whom he heard it from...IMO.
It's McShay's responsibility to confirm the story with some...not "One"...of the UGA Players and Coaches. He didn't confirm, whatever rumor He was spreading...now, there's a fire.
If you can't confirm it, assume it's not true and don't report it as fact. "Fake News", SMH....When will they ever learn. Lol
