Although Hardman is listed as a wide receiver on the UGA website, Kirby Smart had not discussed the move with the media until today:
 

Mecole worked over there about 95 percent of the spring. He did a lot of work there. He did double as a DB in some occasions. We were very down on DBs in the spring. But we think Mecole’s biggest attributes will help us – offensive slot, return game. He can do a lot of different things. We have to try to find a way to get him the ball. He’s also got to find a way to protect the ball. That’s going to be a growing curve for him, carrying the rock – very much that Isaiah (McKenzie) and Reggie (Davis) went through upon my arrival.
