Head coach Mark Richt has an important quality he wants to see in the guy that will be picked to be the man: Secure that ball.
Richt mentioned it again and again last week at a media event in Macon.
“I’m not looking for somebody to be a hero,” Richt said. “And it’s hard sometimes when you’re competing for that quarterback job not to want to make a big play, do something where they start oohing and ahhing. You have a few of those plays, but every fourth or fifth play you throw a ball that could easily get picked off or gets picked off.
