Hardman states case for remaining on offense

Mecole Hardman turned up the field down the right sideline, following a ball lofted from quarterback Jake Fromm.

The ball was expertly thrown and in between two defenders. All Hardman needed to do was catch the deep pass to set his Red team up for what would wind up being a game-winning score. Hardman, who didn't play receiver in high school, brought the ball in for a 38-yard gain.

The play helped set up a game-winning field goal to give his Red team a 25-22 win over the Black team at Saturday's G-Day spring football game.

Hardman's performance -- three catches for 62 yards -- brought this question to head coach Kirby Smart afterward: Will Hardman stick to offense from here on out?
