UGA losing yet another quarterback?

According to the Twitter page of Zac Klein, sports director at WSB in Atlanta, Logan Gray is "meeting with coaches, telling them he plans to transfer." Reportedly, the staff is attempting to talk Gray into staying.
Just four days after Mettenberger's dismissal, Georgia released its post-string depth chart, and Aaron Murray was ahead of Gray on the chart. Head coach Mark Richt made it sound like a no-brainer to position the quarterbacks the way he did.
"On a consistent basis, he performed better than Logan at this point," Richt said. "That's really all there is to it. It's the usual things , accuracy, decision making, those types of things."
While Murray is the starter in the here and now, the battle for the job was expected to continue upon the start of summer camp in a couple of months.
So, without a change of heart, it seems as if there will be no QB controversy in Athens this fall. Also, there will be very little experienced depth behind Murray. True freshman Hutson Mason would become Murray's backup if the transfer rumors become true and Gray bolts.
So, protect Murray at all costs, it appears he will be at the helm.
