UGA Football: ’Virtual’ Draft To Include Numerous Bulldogs

By John Frierson
Staff Writer

It is NFL Draft week and once against numerous Georgia Bulldogs are expected to hear their names called. That’s about it for what will be normal with this draft, however.

Instead of the glamorous and extravagant event that was slated to be held in Las Vegas this Thursday-Saturday, the NFL announced earlier this month that due to the coronavirus pandemic it will hold a “fully virtual” draft. Teams, prospects and the league will all be in their respective locations, and 58 of those prospects will “virtually participate,” including Georgia offensive tackle Andrew Thomas, running back D’Andre Swift and quarterback Jake Fromm.

Where they go in the draft, nobody knows. One ESPN.com ranking of the top 100 prospects in the draft features four Bulldogs: Thomas at No. 14, Swift at No. 20, offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson at No. 55 and Fromm at No. 76.

UGA Football: Georgia Staffer Klawsky Discharged From Hospital

ATHENS — Jeremy Klawsky, University of Georgia football video coordinator, was discharged Thursday afternoon from Piedmont Athens Regional Medical Center, where he has been hospitalized for the past six weeks with COVID-19.

Piedmont staff organized a “Hero’s Walk” where members of the hospital staff including physicians, nurses, therapists, administrators and other support staff, lined the hallways of the hospital to bid him farewell and congratulate him on his recovery.  Georgia Athletic Association staff were allowed to participate in this touching ceremony by waiting outside the hospital to view Jeremy and his family as he exited. The Athletic Association staff attendance was designed to demonstrate support for him as well as show appreciation to the many healthcare workers who participated in his care during his hospitalization.

Jeremy will continue to receive therapy as he recovers.
