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!

Putting the wraps on men’s basketball
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Good afternoon, folks. Long travel day yesterday. Glad to be back in Athens.
First, to wrap up men’s basketball. Air Force is really, really good, especially in that building. The Falcons were a matchup nightmare for Georgia (picture Takais Brown chasing players around the perimeter) and they’re clearly on a mission. Granted, the Bulldogs could have played a lot better but, the truth is, nobody was going to beat Air Force there on the middle of its base in the mountains.
Now the season’s over and the Dogs will get to work on next season. Suffice it to say, making the NCAA Tournament will be the one and only goal and important to coach Dennis Felton to do so. Expect him to receive a contract extension between now and June.
Meanwhile, the Lady Dogs are still out there competing. They get No. 2 seed Purdue in Dallas on Sunday. Not sure whether they’ll survive and advance. To be honest, from what I’ve seen of them this season, I’m surprised they made it this far. It will be a wonderful thing if Andy Landers can ever win a national title but I don’t think it will be with this team.
I’m off to football practice this afternoon. It will be my first look at the Dogs this spring so I’m looking forward to it. They’ll be on Woodruff Practice Fields at 4:30 p.m. I’ll be filing a notebook for the paper so there’s some football coverage to look forward to.
Initially I’m wanting to get an update on the offensive line. I’ll probably visit with new OL coach Stacy Searels. Let me know if you have any particular areas or issues you want me to report on today.
C-ya in the papers!
