Georgia offensive lineman Sam Madden is applying for a medical disqualification and won't continue his football career, head coach Kirby Smart announced Saturday.
Madden came to Georgia in 2015 as a three-star prospect, according to the 247Sports.com composite rankings. Madden had yet to participate during practices to start the spring.
Madden never saw the field during his three years with the Georgia program and was with the scout team throughout. A native of Barnegat, New Jersey, Madden was passed over by two consecutive recruiting classes following Smart’s hiring.
This decision with Madden moves Georgia’s scholarship count, including the recruits who have yet to enroll, to 88.
