Swine flu worries? Cox hit with virus, expected to play

UGASports.com has reported and The Red & Black staff has learned Georgia quarterback Joe Cox has been sick with the flu this week and that he was not on the bus with the other players when they left Friday afternoon on their way to Oklahoma for Saturday’s game against Oklahoma State.

Reports say Cox will travel will to Oklahoma this evening, and while he does have a virus he was not diagnosed with the swine flu. Sophomore Logan Gray is the backup, while true freshmen Aaron Murray and Zach Mettenberger.

The swine flu, which has hit the UGA campus since the start of school with two dozen cases, also forced Stillman College in Alabama to cancel its home opener against Clark Atlanta. According to the Associated Press, Stillaman head coach L.C. Cole noticed his players were having flu-like symptoms and was compelled to cancel the game after he learned that about 37 of his players had become sick. The game will be played at a later date.
