ATHENS, Ga. (AP) – Mark Richt says he remains interested in another coaching job and will listen “to anybody who has interest in me” as he prepares for his final game as Georgia’s coach.

Georgia announced Sunday Richt will not return as coach in 2016. In making the announcement, athletic director Greg McGarity and University of Georgia president Jere Morehead said Dooley had been offered another position at the school.

Richt said at a news conference Monday he appreciated that option but would consider other options.

McGarity met with Richt on Sunday morning. Soon after, Georgia announced the news that Richt was out as coach. McGarity said in a statement released by the school the two “mutually agreed that he would step down as head coach.”
