Colbie Young suspended indefinitely by Georgia football
ATHENS — Georgia coach Kirby Smart provided an update on transfer wide receiver Colbie Young, as the Georgia coach finally had a chance to speak to him following Young’s arrest on Tuesday.

I suspect that it's because The University of Georgia has the most successful football program in America, these violation of law by players gets immediate attention. We are dealing with a demographic,18-22 year old alpha males who are renowned for making poor decisions in stressful situations…..my point… Georgia is not the only athletic program plagued by and working to resolve this problem.

Well said!
I’m certainly no coach or football expert, just a Dawgs fanatic. But I’d like to see Kirby play some WRs like Tuggle the true Freshmen and possibly M. Jackson the transfer and any others that can help. As Pure receivers.
That is for Certain Pass plays where their blocking skills are not that important . We All know that with Kirby you MUST be able to block Effectively as a WR, TE, or RB or you don’t see the field. I get that up to a point. But when we need yards, Especially when we need Em fast, I wish he’d bend his philosophies a little. BUT that’s why he’s paid the Big $$$ and I sit in a recliner !! 😀 Go Dawgs !!!
I don't disagree with your point ….. but it might lead to a "tell" to other teams that when they see "those" receivers in the game, they know it will be a pass.
Same problem they are having with Nate Frazier…..when he is in the game, the other team knows he is getting the ball to run.
Go Dawg!
Someone has got to step in and stop these things. I don't care if it's CKS himself. One strike you're gone. No NIL. Go work at car wash.
Very good point. I thought about that too. Your comment verifies that if WE are thinking about it the opposition would be to. Still use them as a decoy maybe ?? Say bring Tuggle in and block on the Other side of him and Run Entienne ?? Shucks I don’t know !! 😀Just wish we could get more firepower going on the O. Losing Young won’t help the effort, But hate to knock on him he hasn’t exactly been a stud at WR so far. So he Might not be missed that badly. Maybe they can get things going. Go Dawgs !!.
Scram loser, gonna hit a woman..bye bye
He should be kicked out of College Football entirely. Malachi Moore should ride the Bench for a few games. The receiver we had that transfer to Alabama a couple of years ago. Whose name I can't remember at the moment that punched that Tennessee fan should have been suspended for good. These kids have the world at their feet. Grow up don't be a ****.
Cut Colbie Young NOW. Sure continue to educate him. Do not rescind his scholarship. CANCEL any and ALL NIL deals that may be in place. If this is not written policy in the UGA athletic department, it darn well should be. These individual loose cannons are putting the team's efforts at risk. There is no excuse for Young's behavior and Kirby needs to quit dancing around an obvious problem of character assessment. Same rules apply to everyone else on the roster. Screw up and you are gone. Presumption of innocence until proven guilty needs to be re-tooled so these young men understand the repercussions for reckless/****/criminal behavior. Make it page 1 (or however many pages it takes) of the playbook and review it every week at every practice. There may be some short term pain, but the long term payoff will be worth it. Colbie Young is an embarrassment to the university and the SEC.
