AHawks89 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray ended the speculation Sunday night about whether he’s staying in school or going to the NFL. He’s staying, Murray announced via Twitter.“Blessed to be the QB for the Dawgs, not ready to leave just yet,” Murray tweeted to his 64,000-plus followers. “Time to get back to work & help lead this team to a championship. #GoDawgs”Murray could not be immediately reached for further comment, and UGA made no official announcement of his decision.A three-year starter for the Bulldogs, Murray had been weighing whether to return for his final season of college eligibility or to enter the 2013 NFL draft.He said previously that the NFL’s underclassmen advisory committee informed him he likely would be a second or third-round pick if he entered the draft.Murray graduated from UGA last spring with a degree in psychology, and he enrolled in a graduate program in industrial-organizational psychology in the fall.He is the first quarterback in SEC history to pass for more than 3,000 yards in three consecutive seasons. This past season, he passed for 3,893 yards and 36 touchdowns.He has led Georgia to back-to-back SEC Eastern Division titles, although the Bulldogs lost in the SEC Championship game both times.Murray’s return is a boon for the 2013 Georgia team, which will return all but two starters – receivers Tavarres King and Marlon Brown – from an offense that averaged 37.8 points per game. http://blogs.ajc.com/uga-sports-blog/2013/01/06/murray-tweets-intention-to-remain-at-uga/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WraithSentinel Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I am glad to see him returning. They were close this year. Hopefully they knock the doors down next year and Richt can finally lead the Dawgs to a Natl Title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHawks89 Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 That would be huge. I'm worried about the start of our schedule though. Clemson & Carolina back-to-back to start the season off. If we can escape away with two W's then I will have a really good feeling about next season.
