"I'm very disappointed in the poor judgment of these players," [Georgia coach Mark] Richt said in the news release. "They'll have to pay an appropriate price and I'm confident they will learn an important lesson from their mistake."Georgia begins their season on the road at Oklahoma State on September 5th and at South Carolina on September 12th.
