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!

Who’ll be Dogs’ breakout star?

Realizing that we have enveloped our loyal readers with all this award-winning Final Four coverage, I offer a respite for those die-hard college football fans out there, specifically you guys who covet all discussions regarding the Georgia Bulldogs.

Today’s topic is short and sweet. Which Georgia player do you think will be the breakout star in 2007?

Now to specify, we’re not talking about somebody like Matthew Stafford, who most of us agree is on his way to stardom, or Mohamed Massaquoi or Paul Oliver or probably not even Kregg Lumpkin, all of whom have had their “shining moments” (couldn’t resist the basketball reference) on college football’s big stage before.

No, we’re talking about guys more like Brandon Miller or Dannell Ellerbe or or Kelin Johnson or Quintin Banks or Knowshon Moreno or Tripp Chandler or Fernando Velasco. You know, guys that have been around a little while but may have been redshirted or injured or buried behind stars on the depth chart and biding their time for a chance. Certainly I may have overlooked somebody so feel free to offer up a player I haven’t mentioned. You get the gist. Tell me who they are and what you know about it. Perhaps there’s something about them you know that might make a nice story down the line.

Meanwhile, I’m always interested in what the Dawg Nation thinks about everything so feel free to tell me who you think will win the Big Dance tonight and why? That’s where I’ll be. Beautiful weather in Atlanta today and there’s a lot going on around the Georgia Dome, the World Congress Center and Centenniel Olympic Park tonight. Anbody coming downtown to enjoy the festivities tonight?

Anyway, football talk first, then hoops. I’ll be checking in.
