Bulldogs lose another DL
The interior of Georgia’s
defensive line, already
missing seniors Ray Gant
and Marquis Elmore, now
has another player on the
sidelines.
Freshman Ricardo
Crawford had his right arm
in a sling Saturday after
injuring his collarbone on
a goal-line drill in Friday’s
scrimmage. He expects to
be out “at least a few days”
until the swelling goes
down.
Gant, who dislocated a
shoulder, said coaches might
hold him out of the Sept.
2 season opener against
Western Kentucky. Elmore
had knee surgery this past
week but could be available
for the game.
“It’s quite difficult
because we have no depth
right now,” sophomore
starter Jeff Owens said.
“We usually have like a
four- or five-man rotation.
It’s just cutting it down
short.” Meanwhile, red
shirt freshman cornerback
Bryan Evans, competing as
the nickel back, expects to
miss the season opener with
a sprained medial collateral
ligament in his left knee.
Surgery is not expected.

E Tereshinski still No. 1?
Center Nick Jones, men
tioned by coach Mark Richt
among the team’s top lead
ers, said Saturday that in
his eyes, fifth-year senior
Joe Tereshinski appears to
be leading the pack for the
starting quarterback job.
Tereshinski threw two
touchdown passes and was
the only quarterback who
did not throw an intercep
tion in Friday’s scrimmage.
“I think Joe T. seems like
he’s out front right now,”
Jones said. “He’s been that
way since spring. He’s been

No. 1 on the depth chart, and
I think he’s been playing
good ball. I think all of our
quarterbacks are playing
pretty good, but it’s what
ever Coach Richt thinks.”
Richt plans to name the
starter on Monday.
In an onlineathens.com
poll asking who will be the
starter, Tereshinski has
received 55 percent of the
votes by Saturday after
noon, followed by Matthew
Stafford with 30.1, Blake
Barnes with 11.8 and Joe
Cox with 3.1.
THIS AND THAT:
Sophomore Kenneth Harris
“is in the lead,” to be the
starting flanker ahead of
Mikey Henderson and A.J.
Bryant, receivers coach
John Eason said. Senior
Mario Raley is the start
ing inside receiver. Six-foot
-5 freshman Kris Durham
continues to look ready to
make an impact this year.
The latest example was a
sideline catch in the scrim
mage.
“I saw it coming his way
and I thought it was over
thrown,” Eason said. “He
reached up and pulled it
down. I think he can help us
this year, without a doubt.”

Tereshinski named starting QB
By Marc Weiszer
Morris News Service
Joe Tereshinski assumed
the top spot on Georgia’s
quarterback depth chart at
the start of spring practice
largely because of seniority.
Six months later he’s the
one that coach Mark Richt
will start against Western
Kentucky on Sept. 2 after
Tereshinski held off his
three challengers in a heat
ed, much-watched position
battle.
The fifth-year senior from
Athens Academy got the
news on Sunday and Richt
made the announcement in
a hastily called 9 p.m. tele
conference with reporters, a
day earlier than expected.
The surprise for many will
be in the pecking order after
Tereshinski. Redshirt fresh
man Joe Cox, who threw
four interceptions in the
spring game, is the N 0.2
quarterback with highly
touted freshman Matthew
Stafford and redshirt sopho
more Blake Barnes named
as No. 3s.
“I think Joe T has done a
great job of competing and
performing,” Richt said.
“He’s been very solid all
the way through. He’s been
very consistent all the way
through and has just done a
real nice job of leading and
running the system. He’s
competed well and he’s held
off these young bucks and he
deserves to start this ball
game.” Richt said Cox, who
threw 66 touchdown passes
as a senior at Independence
High School in Charlotte,
N.C., is an accurate passer
and fierce competitor who
has begun to run the offen
sive system well.
“He’s become fairly con
sistent, not as consistent
as he needs to be, but he’s
really made a lot of strides,”
Richt said. “As of today, he’s
in position to be our No.
2. The other two guys are
sitting there kind of as a
Co-3 right now. Something

could change between now
and two weeks from now as
far as who is second and how
many guys we play besides
Joe T.” Richt said Georgia
could use three quarterbacks
against Western Kentucky,
but that’s something that
still is to be determined.
Stafford was rated by
some as the nation’s top
high school quarterback
coming out of Highland
Park in Dallas, Texas. He
has the strongest arm on
the team, but Richt said
because Stafford was a true
freshman he was “behind
the 8 ball,” as far as know
ing what do in the offense in
every situation.
“H,e, of course, was not
elated by any stretch of the
imagination,” Richt said
when asked how Stafford
took the news. “He’s a pret
ty mature kid. He realizes
this thing is not a sprint by

his whole career ahead of
him. He knows this is just
a starting point of the sea
son. It’s not 100 percent. We
don’t know what the future
holds. All he’s got to do is
keep repping, keep preparing
and keep getting better on a
daily basis. Quite frankly of
all the guys, the more he
learns the better he’s going
to be.” Richt and quarter
backs coach Mike Bobo sat

quarterback Sunday to dis
cuss how they did in the
competition and where they
sat in the quarterback order
for now.
