It’s crime time in college football. You need to keep your eyes on the police blotter, as depth charts can change, especially in the first couple of games of the season when one and two-game suspensions are handed out.

Georgia defensive lineman Tripp Taylor has been charged for his role in the bizarre beating of a couple of high school kids, who were beaten with a baseball bat, stripped, and urinated on. Taylor is a walk-on but was expected to see time on the field this fall.

Freshman recruit Caleb King is arrested on more mundane traffic charges. King will likely be redshirted due to the UGA depth at running back, but there sure is a lot of malfeasance that goes on at UGA.

What’s interesting about this is that nobody spends more time on character development and education than Mark Richt. In fact, Richt gave up play-calling duties in part to involve himself more in the lives of his players.

Georgia likely can’t afford many more suspensions. Unlike last season, when Richt could freely suspend players for a game due to the Bulldogs’ opener being against Western Kentucky, UGA’s first game this season is no gimmee, as there are folks who think highly of Oklahoma State’s prospects this season, despite the lack of defense in Stillwater.
