With Stacy Searles leaving for Texas (link), and Belin leaving for the NFL (link), Georgia has some positions to fill.

A list of candidates has emerged to fill the O-line position, but no official word on the ILB position, only rumors.

Speaking of rumors, it's being said that former Alabama OG & UGA grad assistant Will friend, now UAB's O-line coach will be announced as Georgia's new O-line coach tomorrow or early this week...link.

As far as the open position on defense, I've heard that there may be some shifting around with Rodney Gardner, but most likely I think that Garner's role will remain the same and some candidates or further details will emerge shortly after the O-line situation is handled.

It's official on the O-line...
...New O-line coach, Will Friend

Looks like a good hire, his reume is good and he's young. I've heard that he coaches with "intensity", that would be nice to have on offense and we know Grantham is intense. Together they could bring some of that fire back to sidelines.

Also, with the Strength & Conditioning changes, Tereshinski has taken over and the players are already complaining (a little) about the workouts... and that's a good sign. Former Georgia running back, Thomas Brown, has also joined the S&C staff. Brown was known as a workout junky during his days at UGA, and his youthful energy will be another good addition to the Georgia sidelines. Strength & conditioning - Tereshinski, Thomas Brown, John Kasay Sr.

Georgia has a new ILB coach. We lost one to the NFL, so we plucked another from the NFL...
