UGA roster attrition

Roster attrition occurring at alarming rate for Georgia football

FS Bacarri Rambo, Sr., is reportedly facing a multi-game suspension for team rules violations. If true, the suspension continues a trend of roster attrition that has occurred at an alarming rate the past few years. Over the past four years, these latest suspensions would bring to 28 the number of players who will not be playing for the Bulldogs at the beginning of the 2012 season who otherwise would be eligible.

DB Chris Sanders, So.: Dismissed from team in January for rules violation.

TB Carlton Thomas, Sr.: Three separate one-game suspensions in 2011. Quit team before spring practice

CB Sanders Commings, Sr.: Gets 2-game suspension for simple battery, disorderly conduct conviction

CB Branden Smith, Sr.: Faces suspension of at least one game for arrest on marijuana possession.

CB Jordan Love (No. 10), Jr.: Transferred after this past season for lack of playing time

DB Jakar Hamilton, Sr.: Transferred due to lack of playing time

DB Derek Owens, Jr.: Transferred due to lack of playing time

QB Zach Mettenberger, Jr.: Dismissed after arrest (and eventual conviction) for sexual battery. Slated to start at LSU.

TB Washaun Ealey, Sr.: Transferred to Jacksonville State after multiple disciplinary run-ins at UGA

OL A.J. Harmon, Sr.: Academic difficulties forced transfer to Alabama State. No longer with that program either.

DE Toby Jackson, Sr.: Failed to qualify, signed with UCF after junior college and now a senior there.

DB Makiri Pugh (No. 29), Sr.: Transferred to Colorado due to lack of playing time at UGA.

OL Chris Little, Sr.: Transferred to junior college, played one year at Southern University, ruled ineligible.
