Greg McGarity provides update on Sanford Stadium renovations, Dawg Walk plans for G-Day
It’s an exciting time to be a Georgia Bulldog fan. The team is coming off its first SEC title since 2005 and signed the No. 1 recruiting class in the country for the class of 2018. And with G-Day just over a week away, fans will also be getting a look at the newly renovated Sanford Stadium.
In an email sent to fans, Georgia Athletic Director Greg McGarity provided an update on the ongoing renovations to Sanford Stadium, which include an new and bigger video-board and added that the renovation projects to the west endzone are set to be finished in July.
McGarity also added that the Dawg Walk for G-Day is set to take place at 2:50 on April 21. But instead of going its normal route, the Dawg Walk will occur on the walkway between the Tate Center and the Miller Learning Center.
The Georgia spring game is scheduled for 4 p.m. on April 21 and the game will be televised on ESPN. Georgia fans will get also get their first chance to see quarterback Justin Fields in uniform. The quarterback was the No. 2 overall prospect in the 2018 recruiting class. Georgia fans will also get to watch some of their other favorite players, such as Jake Fromm and D’Andre Swift take the field.
The gates open at Sanford Stadium at 1 p.m. on G-Day, and fans will want to get there early, as Georgia usually has one of the best attended spring games in the country under Kirby Smart.
