Notes from Richt following Saturday's practice

**Mark Richt said that the team’s focus today was the 1-minute offense and 1-minute defense. He called it “more of a teaching drill than a competitive one”.

The two scenarios were the following, according to Richt.

1) If it was right before the half and we needed a field goal attempt.
2) The offense needed to score a touchdown to win at the end of the game.

The practice was helmets only today and Richt gave them the 2nd practice of yesterday off. There is no practice tomorrow.

“Obviously it is smoking hot out here. They’ve been working well,” said Richt. “You could see they were fatigued. And you want them to fight through fatigue, but you want them to be careful with soft tissue injuries and stuff like that.”

**Richt said that he has around 100 plays installed right now and he normally takes about 50 into a game with him.

Freshman DL Tyreic Martin has what Richt called a “non-surgical knee issue” that will keep him out a little bit.

Richt added that none of the injuries sustained in fall camp have been “catastrophic” or “season-ending”.

**Richt commented on Dionte Mullins’ situation as he awaits word on his eligibility. Mullins was at practice this morning.

“We’re still very encouraged about his arrival,” said Richt. “We think that’s going to happen.”

**In the wake of Maurice Smith’s transfer from Alabama to Georgia and Miami, Richt spoke on needing waivers to be released to certain schools. Miami had been a rumored landing spot for Smith, but of course Richt did not comment on that possibility, as Smith was finally granted his release to go to UGA.

“I’ve unconditionally released every guy whose ever wanted to leave,” said Richt. “Because I think life’s too short.”

He pointed out that during his time at Georgia, he had players transfer to Alabama and Auburn.

**Richt was asked if the possibility of adding a transfer was still on the table and he responded, “If something popped up, possibly.”

“I’d say don’t hold your breath on that, but don’t be shocked if it happened,” he added.

Don't give any more updates on Mullins unless it's that he got in. Been hearing "remaining hopeful" for 3 weeks

Maybe if folks stopped starting new posts every day asking about Mullins' status he would stop reporting on it?
In the meantime, show some appreciation that you're getting alot of information here for free.
 
Any update on a backup QB? I know Rosier has been with the two's but he can't really be our best QB2 option in this offense.
 
Richt is a mans man. That's all that needs to be said...

Rosier won't be the 2.

My money is on Shirreffs with the hope of redshirting Allison.

Pete is the staff still recruiting Davis and Brini hard. If we was to land another CB what's the chance Henderson would be moved to WR? IMO Game changing play makers with the speed like Henderson they need to find a way to get the ball in his hands

Is this Staff using the catapult GPS systems? That is suppose to help lower Soft tissue injuries.

Yes Miami has been using it for a few years now. Miami started using it the year after FSU started.

Funny thing is none of these hens would give a fck if Mullins was already in. They just love juicy stories like old hags.
 
Disappointed to hear about Tyreic Martin. He's a guy Coach Kool wanted, and he wanted to play for Kool.
