Georgia RB coach honors James Cook by wearing his jersey on sidelines

Georgia’s running backs coach Dell McGee is honoring James Cook today by wearing his jersey on the sidelines of the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl against No. 8 Cincinnati.

Cook’s father passed away unexpectedly this past Tuesday after struggling with diabetes. Cook’s father, also named James, was just 46 years old.
