Seay dismissed. Marshall next? (UPDATED)

UPDATE - Marshall's former high school coach says the defensive back is also done at UGA. Chris Sanders is also done.

Sanford Seay has been dismissed from the team. Reportedly, Nick Marshall is also going to be dismissed. Fox 5 broke the news last night, but meetings on the issue are happening this morning.
Seay is accused of stealing money from another student in a university dorm room. It is believed that criminal charges will not be filed in the case.
Atlanta Fox 5 is also reporting that cornerback Nick Marshall will also be dismissed for the incident.
Seay redshirted last season as a freshman.
Marshall, from Wilcox County, recorded five tackles in 13 games with a role on special teams. He had designs on playing for the Bulldogs’ basketball team in future seasons and was viewed as athletic enough to offer playmaking abilities on offense as well.
Seay was a scout team player last season after arriving from Lee County High School. He was unlikely to be in the rotation at receiver this season.
At the very least Marshall is in a heap of trouble. If the allegations are true, Richt and McGarity have no choice. Guess they can always join Deion Bonner on Rocky Flop.

Any idea what they took? Seems harsh, but guess it's a big deal if they're being shown th door.

Doesn't matter. They were both walking a thin line it seems and took something from a teammate. No brainer. The announcement of Seay without Marshall says to me there's a difference in their involvement and/or the meeting with Marshall has yet to end. We'll see.

Some that I have talked to said it was ahout 500 dollars taken by the two... of course those are only rumors. While I hate it for them, if true, I support the decision 100%. UGA has to take a stand on this. I hope they learn a lesson and go succeed in life, but this may have to be that teaching moment to get them there.

3 down & 3 more scholarships available. It's a shame we can't draw interest on all the 'ships' we're holding. I hope we're like Kenny Rogers & "know when to hold 'em & know when to fold 'em"!  The depth chart at "The Butts" keeps taking big hits. Whew...

 Unfortunately, Kenny didn't know when to stay off the phone.
