Georgia football coach Kirby Smart updates status of Brian Herrien, Tyler Clark for Baylor

Georgia football coach Kirby Smart briefly met with members of the media upon touching down in New Orleans on Friday.

Smart told reporters that sophomore running back James Cook would be available for next Wednesday’s game, after being arrested earlier this month, but avoided commenting on the status of others.

Kirby Smart declining to answer questions about certain players who may or may not be here.

Smart when asked whether Tyler Clark or Brian Herrien are here:

"We're going to focus on the players that are playing in the game."

It is highly unlikely Herrien plays in the bowl game and we are now beginning to think Clark will be out as well, though that has not been confirmed.

However, we will have a better understanding of who’s ready to go during the practices this weekend. Stay tuned to UGA Wire to find out more throughout the week in New Orleans and on the trail at the All-American Bowl in San Antonio.
