ATHENS -- Three freshmen Georgia football players this season have been dismissed from the team by coach Mark Richt for undisclosed violations.

The three are cornerback Nick Marshall, defensive back Chris Sanders and receiver Sanford Seay.

Richt would not disclose what team rules were broken, saying only that "mistakes were made and part of our job is helping them learn from mistakes."

He said he will assist the three in transferring to other schools.

Sanders had two tackles in three games. Marshall had five tackles in 13 games, mostly on special teams.

Seay was held out as a redshirt.
