UGA blog finds new home
Morning all. As I’ve said a couple of times this week, we’re converting this blog over to a WordPress platform and it will be a permanent move the first of next week.
Those of you who are regulars probably know that I’m not what you’d call techno-wizard when it comes to these things. But from what I understand the technology offered in this new format should make the blogging and commenting experience better for all. Of course, I’ll be learning as we go along, too. But I’m hoping to provide more pictures and video and things like that which should bring the blog more to life.
Of course, this blog is nothing without all you guys so I want to heartily invite (read: beg) you to come over to the new site by CLICKING HERE ON THE NEW ADDRESS and save it in your browsers. As of Monday, Feb. 23rd, this will be the permanent home of the UGA blog you so love or, in the case of some of you, love to loathe. If you’d prefer to copy and paste or just memorize, the new address is: http://blogs.ajc.com/uga-sports-blog/.
See at the new place!

NFL scouting - for coaches
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
One of the reasons the New Orleans Saints went after Rodney Garner and that other college assistant coaches are getting long looks from the NFL this offseason is the lack of NFL-experienced assistants available. That, coupled with multiple teams searching for assistants, has left teams scrambling.
In the pros, there is a stipulation teams must be granted permission to talk to a current assistant coach under contract. Several times the Saints have approached teams about their assistants (Miami and Tampa Bay, for instance), only to be denied permission.
That has left them with nowhere to turn but the college ranks, where there are coaches able and willing to step into the pro game.
