March 14, 2017UGA quarterback Brice Ramsey has decided to transfer after three seasons with the Bulldogs. He will be eligible immediately per the NCAA graduate transfer rule.
With playing time nowhere to be found as a backup to Jacob Eason, Georgia quarterback Brice Ramsey has decided to transfer out of the Bulldogs program.
Per Dawgs247, Ramsey explained his decision and thanked his coaches and teammates.
“I have enjoyed my years at UGA, the bonds I have made with the coaching staffs as well as the numerous friendships with my teammates will last a lifetime and will continue to help guide me with decisions and future endeavors,” Ramsey said in a statement. “I will never look back on my time at UGA with regrets, I have loved every minute of my time here. However, I understand the meaning of living life with no regrets so after a talk with my family over spring break I have decided to try and play my last year at another institution. I thank Coach Kirby Smart for the advice he has given me and the way he guided me from the moment he arrived on campus. I wish him, the coaching staff and the players nothing but the best and will forever cheer for them. Go Dawgs!!”
Ramsey, who will graduate from Georgia in May and will be eligible immediately per the NCAA graduate transfer rule, also served time as the Dawgs punter the last two seasons. Under center, he threw for 582 yards and four touchdowns with four interceptions during his three-year career.
(UPDATE: Per Dawgs247, defensive back Reggie Wilkerson will also transfer from the UGA program.
Head coach Kirby Smart released a statement on the transfers of both Ramsey and Wilkerson.
“Our sincerest thanks to both Brice and Reggie for their contributions to the University in general and the Bulldog football program in particular over these past four years,” said UGA head coach Kirby Smart. “We wish them all the best at their next destination and final season of eligibility.”)
