Georgia coach Mark Richt said that the team will know very soon what the status of star running back and Heisman Trophy hopeful Todd Gurley is.

Richt took to Twitter to give an update on the situation and he said that when he knows Gurley’s status he will make a decision that is best for the team.

Richt isn’t the only member of the Georgia athletic department that voiced they opinion on the Gurley situation as sports communication director Claude Felton said that the decision will be made, but there is no timetable.

“We’re not saying we expect a final decision by Friday,” Felton told reporters.

Felton says Friday because coach Rocht said in an earlier statement that he expects to know Gurley’s status before the team gets on the plane to travel to Arkansas. The No. 10 Bulldogs will take on the Razorbacks this weekend in another SEC tilt that could either make or break Georgia’s season.

Gurley has rushed for 773 yards on 94 attempts this season and is seen as a top 10 prospect in all of college football. Gurley’s draft stock is not expected to be impacted in a negative light due to this suspension, but as a running back it is unknown where he could be slotted in the 2015 NFL draft.
