AUBURN, Ala. – Georgia football coach Mark Richt was mentioned along with former Oregon coach Mike Bellotti as candidates for the Colorado job, the Denver Post reported Saturday. The paper quoted an unnamed source close to Colorado’s search.
Bulldogs athletic director Greg McGarity said today that Richt has told him that he wants to be at Georgia as long as Georgia will have him, which is what Richt has said since his hiring. When asked if he thought Richt would be coaching the Bulldogs next year considering this season’s struggles, McGarity said, “Sure I do. Absolutely I do.”
