Gone too soon: Heart Attack Strikes Beloved UGA Mascot

No one expected to bury another Uga so soon.

Less than 18 months since his coronation as mascot of the Georgia football team, Loran's Best - also known as Uga VII - died suddenly Thursday morning, leaving the Bulldog Nation in a collective state of shock.

"I was very shocked and saddened to hear about Uga VII," Georgia head football coach Mark Richt said. "You never think that something like that can happen that quickly, but it did, and it's sad to know that we won't have him on the sideline anymore."

"It's shocking," said Branden Pollett, a sophomore from Savannah. "This was only his second season and you never expect them to die this quickly. He truly represents the University of Georgia football team and it's just shocking he's gone so soon."Morehttp://media.www.redandblack.com/media/storage/paper871/news/2009/11/20/News/Gone-Too.Soon.Heart.Attack.Stri
