Geathers missing from Georgia practice
Carvers Bay product Kwame Geathers was missing from Georgia's first practice today, as his academic eligibility is reviewed by the NCAA.Freshman defensive lineman Kwame Geathers of Georgetown is not among the Georgia players on campus for the Bulldogs’ first practice.
Coach Mark Richt said Tuesday the NCAA is reviewing Geathers’ academic eligibility but said Geathers has “jumped through every hoop that’s been in front of him successfully at this point.“
Richt said he didn’t know how long the review might last for Geathers, a 6-foot-6, 320-pound lineman who is the brother of former Georgia player Robert Geathers and current South Carolina defensive end Clifton Geathers.
“We’re very confident everything is going to go through,“ Richt said. Georgia opened preseason practice on Tuesday.
