Georgia Bulldogs head coach Kirby Smart met with the media on Tuesday at the start of UGA’s spring practice to discuss the state of the program.
Smart discussed the quarterback battle, the offseason arrests,
the injury report and the status of transfer wide receiver Rara Thomas heading into spring practice.
See below for a few big takeaways from Smart’s first press conference of the spring:

Speaking about the three transfers, Kirby Smart does note that WR Rara Thomas is cleared to participate in team activities after his charges were dropped.
Carson Beck and Brock Vandagriff will share first-team reps to start spring,
per Kirby Smart, who also says: "I wouldn't count Gunner Stockton out of this thing."
"No policy of lack thereof caused this accident,"
Smart said in answer to a question about his comments to ESPN that he doesn't expect any policy changes.
But added that policies are always under review.
